Brookside Home Sales Report-August 2023

It’s the last week of September; I am a bit late posting these stats so let’s get going! These are the single family home sales for last month, using the main Brookside zip code of 64113 for the info:

The lowest closed price last month was $350K and the highest was $1,240,000–which was $65,000 over the list price!!! The list price/sales price ratio difference wasn’t much, 1.75% however the closed price last month was up 26% over August 2022. Here are the year-to-date figures:

So far this year, 17% fewer homes have sold in Brookside, yet prices are up 14%! And most buyers are paying over asking price. So far we’ve had 24 sales over $1,000,000. Currently there are 16 homes for sale in Brookside, with a median price of $912,000. Why such a high median price? Because 13 of the homes have a sticker price over $500K and 7 of those are over $1 million bucks.
