I’m a little late posting these stats for Armour Hills…have been busy and now looking forward to a long, easy holiday weekend! However, some interesting buyer activity in May for Armour Hills–you won’t believe how much one buyer went over the asking price to win in a bidding war! Details below:

may 2025may 2024
Median list price:$472,500$397,000
Median sales price:$510,000$400,000
No. of homes sold:54
Days on market:22

Home values were up 27.5% compared to last May…every single house closed over the list price. The largest variance was this: $539,000 sales price; buyer paid $650,000 cash. That’s $111,000 over the asking price! Even so, the highest closed price last month was even higher that $650K–it was $740,000. Here are the year-to-date numbers:

jan-may 2025jan-may 2024
Median list price:$471,250$434,343
Median sales price:$471,250$447,000
No. of homes sold:2623
Days on market:33

Home values are up a healthy 5% for the year so far, and most homes go under contract very quickly. The number of homes changing owners remains steady. However, there are currently 7 homes for sale in Armour Hills with a median list price of $495,000 and 18 days on market–a few more on the market at the same time as usual. Everyone–have a safe and happy Fourth of July holiday!

At the halfway point in the year, let’s take a look at June home sales for Armour Hills on this last day of July. In Brookside as a whole, prices are down from last year and fewer of properties have sold. That’s true for the monthly report but not year-to date! Let’s take a look:

JUNE 2024JUNE 2023
Median list price:$419,000$430,000
Median sales price:$442,500$476,250
Days on market:22
No. of homes sold:56

Last month, most buyers paid over the list price, around 5.6%. Home prices were down 7% compared to last June. The lowest closed price was $398,800 and the highest was $485,000. Look at these year to date figures– prices are up:

JAN-JUNE 2024JAN-JUNE 2023
Median list price:$432,122$415,000
Median sales price:$444,750$436,000
Days on market:22
No. of homes sold:2827

Unlike Brookside as a whole (prices dropped 4% first half of the year); Armour Hills prices were up 2%. Most homes are still selling within a few days of hitting the market and buyers continue to pay over list price. Currently there are three homes listed in Armour Hills, with a median list price of $375,000 and 40 days on market.

Armour Hills Home Sales Report – March 2024

Why are home prices rising so fast? I think I will write a blog about that topic within the next couple of weeks. Because when I see how far some buyers are paying over list price for a home, I think the general public would appreciate comments on price fluctuation! Armour Hills, one of the largest subdivisions in Brookside, continues to be a very desirable location, one that some buyers will pay just about anything to live here. More details follow! Here are the stats:

MARCH 2024MARCH 2023
Median list price:$450,000$365,000
Median sales price:$480,000$390,000
Days on market:225
No. of homes sold:55

Prices shot up 23% compared to March 2023; the same number of homes closed. Of the five homes that changed owners, one home sold for $55,050 over the asking price of $459,950 and another sold for $100,000 over the asking price of $475,000–and that house had just one and a half baths! The price of $575K is the highest so far this year in Armour Hills; there was another home that closed at that price in February–and yes, that one was way over the list price by $60K.

Let’s look at the year-to-date numbers:

JAN-MARCH 2024JAN-March 2023
Median list price:$439,950$365,000
Median sales price:$439,950$390,000
Days on market:36
No. of homes sold:1211

Home values are up over 12% compared to last year, and a few more homes have sold–I think some sellers/buyers are getting used to the fact that interest rates are not going to fall dramatically and they are now ready to move forward with moving plans. In Armour Hills, new listings do not stay on the market over a week; there are no active listings as of this writing.

The home sales report for Armour Hills last month shows fewer homes closed yet prices still going up. Sound familiar? It’s happening city-wide this year. Let’s take a look at the details; I’m posting stats about Armour Hills, a large subdivision in Brookside:

june 2023june 2022
Median list price:$430,000$390,000
Median sales price:$476,250$430,000
Days on market: 2 2
No. of homes sold: 6 9

Last month buyers paid almost 11% over the asking price for Armour Hills properties, and 1/3 fewer homes closed. The lowest sales price was $425K and the highest was $541K.

Here are the year-to-date numbers:

jan-june 2023jan-june 2022
Median list price: $415,000$395,000
Median sales price: $436,000$420,000
Days on market: 2 2
No. of homes sold: 27 43

The YTD figures show us that home values in Armour Hills are up 3.8% so far, although fewer homes changed ownership. Buyers are paying an average of 5% over the list price. This is the halfway mark for 2023 sales in Armour Hills; the 3.8% increase is normal; fewer homes selling can be attributed to fewer people want to sell (and give up a low interest rate) and deciding to stay put for now.

Currently there are two homes for sale in Armour Hills, with a median list price of $402,500 and three days on market.

I‘m a bit late posting these stats in early July…it’s a holiday week after all!! Home sales are still strong in Armour Hills; fewer homes sold compared to last year. Let’s take a look at the numbers:

May 2023may 2022
Median list price:$487,000$385,000
Median sales price:$526,000$429,000
Days on market: 3 2
No. of homes sold: 4 11

You can see that buyers paid list price or above on the closed sales in May; the lowest closed price was $376,500 and the highest was $575,000. Far fewer homes closed compared to May 2022; home values up 22%. Here are the year-to-date figures:

jan-may 2023jan-may 2022
Median list price:$395,000$397,000
Median sales price:$417,000$419,000
Days on market: 5 2
No. of homes sold: 21 34

Sales prices are consistent with last year, however 38% fewer homes have closed. Sellers can be reluctant to sell due to the record low interest rate on their mortgage and lack of inventory combined with higher prices. Still, buyers want to live in Armour Hills and most homes are under contract within just a few days of hitting the market.

As of today there are zero homes for sale in Armour Hills, that will change in a day or so! Fifteen homes are under contract, waiting to close.

Armour Hills Home Sales Stats-Jan 2018

As I write this blog, I am looking ahead wondering if Armour Hills will again be one of the most desirable neighborhoods for buyers in 2018. Last year the average days on market for a new listing in Armour Hills was just 7, and median home prices increased 14.9% over 2016. Those numbers say a lot about how strong this neighborhood is.

Let’s take a look at the stats for last month:

January 2018                                                                  January 2017

Median list price:     $289,975                                      Median list price:      $329,475

Median sales price:  $284,500                                      Median sales price:   $327,500

Days on market:            5                                                Days on market:            18

No. of homes sold:        4                                                No. of homes sold:          4

Although the median home sales price was much lower than 2017, that reflects the fact  lower prices homes sold last month.  Still, three of the four homes that sold were at or above list price. The highest sales price was $340,000 and the lowest was $185,000.  I believe Armour Hills will again be a strong destination for home buyers this year.

Currently there are five active listings in Armour Hills, with a median price of $345,000 and 71 days on market.

The Armour Hills subdivision in Brookside continues to be a desireable location for homebuyers this year–prices are up compared to 2016.  Here are the stats for August 2017, with a year to date comparison as well.

Aug 2017

Median list price:     $285,000

Median sales price:  $285,000

No. of houses sold:     11

Days on market:          19

Aug 2016

Median list price:     $254,500

Median sales price:   $254,000

No. of houses sold:       8

Days on market:          13

The highest closed price was $421,750 and the lowest was $235,000.  There is very little, if any, negotiation on list price.  

Here are the year to date stats:

Jan-Aug 2017

Median list price:     $315,000

Median sales price:  $312,500

No. of houses sold:       71

Days on market:           7

Jan-Aug 2106

Median list price:     $269,950

Median sales price:  $272,250

No. of houses sold:      56

Days on market:           13

Prices are up about 14% year to date–wow, that is quite a jump!  However, I don’t think final 2017 stats will show that much of an increase. Still, higher prices mean more equity for sellers and buyers are comfortable paying more to live in our neighborhood.  Currently there are five homes for sale in Armour Hills, with a median list price of $335,000 and 7 days on market.

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.
