I remember when it was fairly easy to buy a house in Waldo for under $200K. Those days are gone! Housing prices keep rising in Waldo, and compared to last year–values are up in the double digits. I’m checking single family home sales in Waldo, using the boundaries of Gregory to 85th and State Line to Holmes.
| February 2021 | February 2020 |
| Median list price: $289,475 | $209,000 |
| Median sales price: $298,750 | $212,500 |
| No. of homes sold: 24 | 15 |
| Days on market: 15 | 22 |
The lowest closed price in Feb 2021 was $112,520 and the highest was $439,900. Here are the year-to-date numbers:
| Jan-Feb 2021 | Jan-Feb 2020 |
| Median list price: $265,000 | $205,000 |
| Median sales price: $265,000 | $206,225 |
| No. of homes sold: 47 | 32 |
| Days on market: 13 | 24 |
Look at the difference between the two sales prices: values are up 28% YTD. That is incredible. More homes are selling, and in a shorter period of time. And as of this writing, there are just four homes listed in Waldo, with a median asking price of $180,000 and 4 days on market.
