Last month there was a drop in the median sales home price for Brookside homes; overall for the year, prices are up. Let’s take a look at the specific stats; I’m using the main Brookside zip code of 64113 for this report:

september 2025september 2024
Median list price:$537,450$575,000
Median sales price:$532,500$585,000
Days on market:27
No. of homes sold:2823

The median sales price dropped 9% from last September; a few more units sold though and most properties went under contract within a few days of listing. The lowest closed sales price was $357,000 and the highest was $3,300,000. Here are the year-to-date numbers:

jan-sept 2025jan-sept 2024
Median list price:$599,000$550,000
Median sales price:$610,000$575,000
Days on market:33
No. of homes sold:199198

These numbers show an increase of 6% in the median home price compared to 2024; and just about the same amount of homes are changing owners. Currently there are 15 homes for sale in Brookside, with a median price of $625,000 and 67 days on market. The lowest price is $435,000 and the highest is $2,750,000.

Here we are, halfway through the year and Brookside home sales are not slowing down–every the million dollar plus properties go under contract quickly! Let’s take a look at the numbers; I’m using the primary Brookside zip code of 64113 for these stats:

june 2025june 2024
Median list price:$685,000$575,000
Median sales price:$725,000$585,000
Days on market:32
No. of homes sold:3325

The median sales price jumped up quite a bit: nearly 24%! We had seven homes sold last month over $1,000,000 which pushed up that median price; in June 2024, just one home closed over a million. The lowest closed price was $345,000 and the highest was $2,050,000. One home on McGee was listed at $685K; it sold for $725,000 sight unseeen.

Here are the year-to-date numbers:

jan-june 2025jan-june 2024
Median list price:$625,000$537,475
Median sales price:$635,000$553,500
Days on market:33
No. of homes sold:123116

Because there have been so many higher priced homes selling, the median sales price is up 14.7% compared to last year; 6% more homes have sold this year. Is this trend now the norm: most buyers pay list price or above….?

Currently there are 18 homes for sale in the Brookside zip of 64113; median list price is $567,000 and 38 days on the market.

As we head into the usually busy Spring home buying season, it’s interesting to note that overall, home prices are trending downward; however buyers are still paying over list price. That sentence…can seem confusing, especially if you are in the market as a buyer. Let’s take a look at the numbers; I’m tracking single family home sales in the main Brookside zip code of 64113:

March 2024March 2023
Median list price:$475,000$657,000
Median sales price:$520,000$650,000
Days on market:212
No. of homes sold:1716

Here we see that the number of homes sold remains steady, and buyers paid 9.5% over the asking price. Compared to March 2023 however, home prices are down 20%. Last month the lowest closed price was $260,000 and the highest was $1.3 million. Ten of the 17 homes sold were priced over $500K and two were over $1,000,000.

Here are the year-to-date trends:

JAN-March 2024JAN-March 2023
Median sales price:$510,000$550,000
Median list price:$517,500$542,500
Days on market:319
No. of homes sold:4445

These YTD numbers aren’t as drastic but still reflect the trend: about the same number of homes are changing owners; buyers pay over asking price (YTD about 1.5%) and values are down 4.6%.

Currently there are just 12 homes for sale in the 64113 zip code, with a median list price of $974,500. Only one home is priced under $500K and five have prices over $1,000,000. There is just not enough inventory at the under $500K price point and when there is–the home goes under contract within a day or two.

Brookside Home Sales Report-July 2023

The higher interest rates don’t seem to be deterring homebuyers who want to call Brookside home; fewer homes closed last month but prices continue to climb over asking price–likely due to lack of inventory. Here are the stats for single family home sales in Brookside, using the zip code of 64113:

july 2023july 2022
Median list price:$535,000$540,000
Median sales price:$570,000$530,000
Days on market: 2 3
No. of homes sold: 29 35

Buyers paid about 6.5% over asking price and values up 7.5% compared to July 2022. The lowest closed sale was $335K and the highest was $3.5 million. There were three million dollar plus sales last month. Here are the year to date numbers:

jan-july 2023jan-july 2022
Median list price:$575,000$495.000
Median sales price:$577,000$505,500
Days on market: 3 2
No. of homes sold: 159 182

The number of homes sold dropped by 14% so far this year, and prices are up 14%. There are just 14 active single family homes listed in Brookside as of this writing, and the median price is $870,000–certainly not affordable for most buyers. Twelve listings are over $500K and 6 are over $1,000,000.

We are at the halfway point for home sales this year and it seems like buyers have adjusted to the higher interest rates and it’s …business as usual. As in, not enough inventory, buyers getting into bidding wars and paying over asking price. Home values have increased by double digits compared to last year. Here are the numbers…I’m checking single family home sales for the main Brookside zip code of 64113:

june 2023june 2022
Median list price:$580,000$459,550
Median sales price:$593,250$485,000
Days on market: 2 2
No. of homes sold: 40 26

Some interesting numbers here…first of all, there were 8 homes that closed last month over $1,000,000 and most of them sold for over the asking price. We had our highest sale of the year so far at $2,990,000 (cash!). Over 50% more homes closed and values up 22% compared to June 2022. The lowest closed price was $355,000.

Here are the year-to-date stats:

jan-june 2023jan-june 2022
Median list price: $575,000 $489,250
Median sales price:$578,500 $500,500
Days on market: 3 2
No of homes sold: 130 146

So far our home values are up 15% YTD, even though fewer homes have closed–still our neighborhood is in high demand. As you can see, the majority of buyers are paying list price or over. Currently there are just 13 homes for sale in zip 64113 and the median list price is…$1.3 million! That’s because there are seven of the 13 homes are priced over a million with the highest at $10,000,000. The lowest priced home for sale is $549,000. I just don’t see any slowdown in the demand for Brookside homes.

Here we are at the halfway point of home sales this year…and my, how the market has changed since January! Primarily regarding the higher interest rate. There is still quite a bit of demand though, and prices are still rising. Let’s take a look at last month’s stats first for Brookside, using the primary zip code of 64113:

June 2022June 2021
Median list price:$459,950$482,000
Median sales price:$485,000$500,000
No. homes sold: 26 38
Days on market: 2 2

The highest sale last month (and so far for 2022) was $2.85 million, which was $101K over the list price! The lowest closed price was $340,000. Final sales prices were about 3% below last June.

Here’s a look at year-to-date numbers:

Jan-June 2022Jan-June 2021
Median list price:$489,250$470,250
Median sales price:$500,500$482,763
No. homes sold: 146 168
Days on market: 2 2

Overall, buyers are still paying just under 4% over the asking price; and home values are up 6.74% compared to the first half of 2021. We’ve had fewer sales this year; most Brookside houses are still going under contract within 48 hours of listing. Currently there are 14 active single family home listings in Brookside, with an average list price of $487,500 and nine days on the market. Prices range from $300K to $4,000,000.

Brookside Home Sales Report-February 2022

Last month’s snow storms seem so far away, as Spring is here! I hear the birds chirping in the early morning hours–wake up everyone! Home prices aren’t falling like the snow did, interest rates creeping up like the tempertures–it’s going to be another hectic spring for homebuyers and sellers. Here are the stats for single family home sales in Brookside, using the main zip code of 64113:

FEbruary 2022February 2021
Median list price:$550,350$380,000
Median sales price:$538,575$392,350
No. homes sold: 16 16
Days on market: 54 2

Last month there were two $1,000,000+ sales; one of those homes had sat on the market for almost a year. There were several homes that closed over $500K+ last month, so that accounts for the big jump in median sales price and longer days on market. Here are the year to date numbers:

Jan-Feb 2022Jan-FEb 2021
Median list price:$570,800$395,000
Median sales price:$550,000$397,200
No. homes sold: 29 29
Days on market: 46 3

Just looking at the numbers, you could say home prices are up 38% over last year. But the several, higher closed sales prices in February pushed the median price up. The same number of homes sold; days on market longer as a few of the homes took a while to go under contract.

Currently there are just five homes for sale in Brookside’s zip code of 64113, at a median price of $1.1 million! Two of the homes are just over one million dollars; one is $4,000,000. Those new, moderately priced listings that go on the market every week are getting snapped up so fast in bidding wars. Hence, not enough inventory for buyers.

We are seeing double digit increases in Brookside home values; houses continue to sell very fast and at over the list price.  This is the same news I have been delivering for the past several months!  Here are the stats for Brookside, using the main Brookside zip code of 64113:

Last September we were still pretty much hunkered down due to COVID-19 pandemic spread; this year things have loosened up as more people are vaccinated and that affects everything.  Last month we had one sale over $1,000,000.  There was a 17% increase in values compared to Sept 2020.

Most buyers pay over the list price for Brookside homes this year; also we’ve had several multi-million dollar sales:  12 so far in 2021.  Year-to-date, home values up 20.6% over last year.  Currently there are 20 single family homes for sale in Brookside, with an average price of $549,975 and 63 days on market.
