Such a busy time of year and I haven’t been posting as much as usual…there are a few new local businesses to highlight as well as the monthly home sales stats; however work and social events are crowding the calendar!! Will start with the Brookside home sales stats for last month and post Waldo/Armour Hills next week. Here we go!
| november 2023 | november 2022 | |
|---|---|---|
| Median list price: | $515,000 | $475,000 |
| Median sales price: | $485,000 | $472,500 |
| Days on market: | 3 | 8 |
| No. of homes sold: | 19 | 19 |
Compared to a year ago, the median sales price rose just over 2.5%; the same number of homes changed hands and it looks like sellers were in a bargaining mood to get properties sold before the holidays as buyers paid less than list price. The lowest closed sale last month was $300K and the highest was $2.399,000. Here are the year to date numbers:
| jan-nov 2023 | jan-nov 2022 | |
|---|---|---|
| Median list price: | $550,000 | $489,900 |
| Median sales price: | $570,000 | $500,000 |
| Days on market: | 3 | 3 |
| No. of homes sold: | 231 | 273 |
And the year to date trend is consistent…most buyers pay over list price, most homes go under contract quickly and fewer homes have sold (by 15% compared to 2022). Home values are up 14%. Currently there are 19 homes for sale in the 64113 Brookside zip code, with a median price of $550,000 and 74 days on market.
