Armour Hills July 2017 Home Sales Report

Armour Hills in Brookside — a hot location for homebuyers this year!  Prices have really jumped up from one year ago.  Here are the July 2017 home sales for Armour Hills, and a comparison to last year.

July 2017                                              

Median list price:      $335,000                          

Median sales price:  $335,000                          

Number of homes sold:  6  

Days on market:               5                   

July 2016        

Median list price:       $254,500

Median sales price:   $256,000     

Number of homes sold:   8  

Days on market:                5

The lowest sales price in July  2017 was $249,900 and the highest was $397,500.      

Now let’s look at year to date:

Jan- July 2017                                

Median list price:      $320,000

Median sales price:  $322,500

Number of homes sold:  59

Days on market:              7

Median sales price:     $274,500

Number of homes sold:  47

Days on market:               11

Home prices are up 17% YTD!  It will be interesting to see what the numbers are for 2017 as a whole. I don’t think year end stats will be quite that high.  However, note that most homes are selling at list price or over.   Currently in Armour Hills there are five active listings with a median price of $385,000 and 41 days on market.

Here we are, midway through the year, and Brookside homes are still in strong demand for homebuyers, especially those under $500,000.  Let’s look at single family home sales in the Brookside zip code of 64113 for  the month of June 2017:

June 2017

Median list price:            $372,000

Median sales price:        $367,500

No. of homes sold:             40

Days on market:                 20

The lowest sales price was $168,500 and there were two sales over $1,000,000.  Checking last year stats:

June 2016

Median list price:            $344,250

Median sales price:         $342,000

No. of homes sold:              42

Days on market:                 37

Now let’s look at year to date figures:

Jan-June 2017

Median list price:             $375,000

Median sales price:          $360,000

No. of homes sold:             159

Median list price:            $369,000

Median sales price:         $364,500

No. of  homes sold:            166

Days on market:                 41

Technically, the year to date figures show a slight decrease in the median price compared to one year ago but that hasn’t been the usual pattern this year. Prices are generally higher than 2016.  Note the June comparisons show a 7.4% price increase compared to same time last year.  The demand is for homes priced below $500K, especially the $250-$400 range.

Currently there are 42 homes for sale in the Brookside zip code of 64113. However, the median list price is $612,450.  Over half – 25 homes – are priced over $500,000.  The higher priced homes sit on the market longer and push up the median price. The lowest priced home is $210,000 and the highest is $2.5 million.

Home prices are up again in Waldo–a trend that has been consistent this year.  There is a lot of demand and not enough inventory.   These figures are for Waldo single family home sales, using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th:

The highest price sale in Waldo last month was $365,500 and the lowest was $84,900. Note the sales price was higher than list price–because many of the homes that closed were at or over the asking price.

Brookside Home Sales Stats – May 2017

It’s crazy out there if you want to buy a home in Brookside for under $400K!  I’m sure you’ve heard the stories from your home buyer friends–or seller friends, who receive multiple offers within a day of listing their home.  Here are the May 2017 single family home sales stats for Brookside, using zip code 64113:

May 2017

Median List Price:       $330,000

Median Sales Price:    $339,500

Number of Homes Sold:    39

Days on Market:                4

The lowest closed price was $170K; the highest was a home near 55th and Ward Parkway–$3.2 million cash. You are reading those numbers correctly–median sales price is almost $40K over asking price.  Out of the 39 homes that closed last month, 24 were at or above list price.  I’ve seen closed prices as much as $25K over list price!  Now let’s look at same period last year:

May 2016

Median List Price:               $364,500

Median Sale Price:              $360,500

Number of Homes Sold:         37

Days on Market:                       43

The number of homes sold was about the same. Last year, median price was higher because more expensive homes closed in May 2106.  Days on market was longer–that is typical for higher priced homes.  The demand in Brookside right now is for homes priced $225K-$400K.  Here are YTD figures:

Jan-May 2017

Median List Price:                $374,947

Median Sales Price:              $360,000

Number of Homes Sold:       118

Days on Market:                     18

Jan-May 2016

Median List Price:                 $373,750

Median Sales Price:               $367,950

Number of Homes Sold:         124

Days on Market:                        41

As you can see, year to date the median sales price is well below median list price–but again, when the higher priced homes sell, there is usually more bargaining in the offer.  It is the $350K and under homes that generally sell for at or over list price.

Currently there are 40 homes for sale in Brookside, with a median list price of $695,000.  Thirty four of the 40 are listed over $400K.

Armour Hills Home Sales Stats-March 2017

Not a lot of activity in Armour Hills in March regarding  sold homes–however, that is normal as the first couple of months of the year are not popular times to list homes due to traditionally cold weather.  Still, there was an increase in median sales price!  Let’s look at the March 2017 home sales for Armour Hills, and a comparison to last year.

March 2017

Median list price:      $325,000

Median sales price:  $325,000

Number of homes sold:  5

Days on market:             6

March 2016

Median list price:       $234,975

Median sales price:   $229,475

Number of homes sold:  6

Days on market:             39

Four of the five homes that sold last month in Armour Hills were over $300K, pushing the median sales price up. Notice it was only a few days before the new listings went under contract.

Now let’s look at year to date:

Jan-March 2017

Median list price:      $395,000

Median sales price:  $395,000

Number of homes sold:  50

Days on market:             37

The lowest sales price so far this year $205,000 and the highest was $440,000.

Jan-March 2016

Median list price:        $389,500

Median sales price:    $382,000

Number of homes sold:   57

Days on market:              34

So far, prices are up 29% over first quarter 2016.  However, most of the increase is due to more expensive homes selling this year over same period one year ago.  Currently in Armour Hills there are four homes for sale, with a median price of $312,000 and 18 days on market.

We are all in  the typically strong Spring home buying season and inventory is still pretty low compared to demand.  However, I know sellers are busy getting their homes ready to list and the next couple of months will bring even more houses for sale.  Here is the March 2017 Brookside single family home sales report, using stats from zip code 64113:

March 2017

Median list price:        $395,000

Median sales price:    $395,000

Number of homes sold:    34

Days on market:               28

The lowest closed price was $200,000 and the highest was $803,000.

March 2016

Median list price:        $384,250

Median sales price:    $379,500

Number of homes sold:   34

Days on market:              28

Checking year-to-date figures:

Jan-Mar 2017

Median list price:        $394,230

Median sales price:    $397,000

Number of homes sold:  50

Days on market:             37

Jan-Mar 2016

Median list price:         $389,000

Median sales price:     $382,000

Number of homes sold:   57

Days on market:              34

So far, median prices are up 3.2% the first quarter of 2017 compared to first quarter 2016.  Fewer homes for sale means less for buyers to chose from and prices get pushed up.  There is still a strong demand for Brookside properties priced from $200-$350K.  Currently there are 34 active single family home listings in Brookside, with a median price of $772,000.  Most of the active listings-21 homes-are $500K and more; 9 properties are priced over $1million.
