This will be a short blog to kick off 2026 home sales for Brookside! The graphic below shows January 2026 numbers and a comparison to 2025. As we are in the first month of the year, these are also the year-to-date numbers! As always I am using the main Brookside zip code (64113) for the numbers, single family home sales:
| january 2026 | january 2025 | |
|---|---|---|
| Median list price: | $637,500 | $799,000 |
| Median sales price: | $624,250 | $793,000 |
| Days on market: | 6 | 39 |
| No. of homes sold: | 14 | 11 |
Technically there was a drop of 27% last month compared to the January 2025 median sales price. However, note that last year, there were 5 million dollar plus sales and last month, there were (only!) three. That skews the median price. Last month, more homes sold and in a shorter period of time. Currently there are just 2 homes for sale in Brookside, with a median price of $515,000.
