Waldo home prices are 5.8% higher this year, although fewer homes have sold–probably due to a lack of inventory.  Currently there are 36 active single family homes for sale in Waldo, with a median list price of $219,000 and 19 days on market.  The lowest asking price is $47,000 and the highest is $525,000.
