Waldo home sales are holding steady for the year; that’s good news, no big swings! Overall there has been a dip in the median sales price; let’s take a closer look. These stats reflect single family home sales in Waldo based on the area from State Line to Holmes and Gregory south to 85th St.

september 2025september 2024
Median list price:$310,000$312,475
Median sales price:$280,000$307,800
No. of homes sold:2324
Days on market:43

Compared to last September, the median sales price is down 9%. Some homes are sitting on the market longer and some homes are more aggressive in pricing; that may account for the drop. The highest sales price last month was $425,000 and the lowest was $164,000.

Here are the year-to-date figures:

jan-sept 2025jan-sept 2024
Median list price:$300,000$299,000
Median sales price:$303,000$306,000
No. of homes sold:230211
Days on market:53

The median sales price is off just about 1% from last year at this time; however, most sellers are getting close or sometimes over the list price. Also, 8% more homes have changed owners this year. Currently there are 28 homes listed in Waldo, with a median list price of $267,375 and 38 days on market.

Waldo Home Sales Report – October 2024

The housing values in Waldo are up and down in this report; overall, though, prices remain fairly steady. These stats are taken from single family home sales in Waldo from State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th St:

october 2024october 2023
Median list price:$279,250$280,000
Median sales price:$272,500$305,000
No. of homes sold:263
Days on market:2019

Home values are down just about 12% compared to October 2023; and many buyers paid less than the asking price; that’s unusual. It could be that sellers overpriced their properties as you can see many homes sat on the market longer–almost a month. Yet I think the YTD numbers show the trends better:

jan-oct 2024jan-oct 2023
Median list price:$299,000$285,000
Median sales price:$305,300$290,000
No. of homes sold:222219
Days on market:33

Overall, prices are up just over 5% for the year, and about the same number of homes have changed ownership. Waldo seems to be a very stable market, with homes gaining in value. Many buyers are paying asking price or just over. This shows that Waldo remains a hot place for homebuyers! Currently there are 36 single family homes in Waldo for sale, with a median list price of $274,975 and 53 days on market.

Waldo Home Sales Report-April 2023

Waldo homes are continuing to sell quickly however prices have calmed down somewhat–and fewer homes are selling, no doubt due to a continued lack of inventory and much higher interest rates than April 2022. Let’s take a look at the numbers; I’m using the boundaries of State Line-Holmes and Gregory to 85th for this report:

april 2023april 2022
Median list price:$260,000$250,000
Median sales price:$275,500$275,000
No. of homes sold: 21 27
Days on market: 3 3

The interesting fact about the sold price for last month was 1) it was above asking price, so buyers still paying more than list price and 2) the sold price was virtually unchanged from a year ago. With most homes selling within a few days of hitting the market, buyers have to be quick to see the new houses quickly. The lowest closed price last month was $175K and the highest was $470K. Below are the year-to-date numbers:

January-april 2023january-april 2022
Median list price: $275,000 $244,500
Median sales price: $275,000 $261,500
No. of homes sold: 71 94
Days on market: 8 3

Waldo home values have risen 5% YTD compared to 2022. Note that 32% fewer homes have closed, and some homes are sitting on the market just a little longer. Currently there are just three single family homes for sale in Waldo, with a median price of $359,000 and 12 days on market.

Waldo has such a large range of home pricing…I think that’s one reason it continues to be a popular location for buyers.  Prices are way up compared to last year. Here are the single family home sales stats for Waldo last month, using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th St.

The lowest closed sale last month was $128,300 and the highest was $385,000.  Now let’s look at YTD comparisons:

Waldo Home Sales Prices Higher in August 2014

Fall is here, home sales are slowing down, and it’s time to look at the August 2014 single family home sales stats for the Waldo neighborhood.  The area I am focusing on for this market report  is State Line east to Holmes, and Gregory south to 85th St.

In August 2014, 22 homes sold with a median sales price of $169,600 and 42 days on market.  The lowest home sale was $49,000 and the highest was $305,000.

In August 2013, 34 homes sold with a median sales price of $151,000 and 46 days on market.  The lowest home sale was $44,150 and the highest was $292,500.

Average sales price is higher  from one year ago and days on market, virtually the same.  The number of units sold is down by 35%.

Here are the year-to-date figures:

From January – August  2014, 224 homes have sold with a median price of $144,000 and 46 days on market.  HIghest sales price so far this year is $430,000; lowest is $23,000.

From January – August 2013, 255 homes sold with a median price of $147,000 and 49 days on market.

The average sales price is now trending a bit lower; the number of homes sold is down 12% year-to-date compared to last year at this time. Nationally, home sales are slower and in the Brookside area (zip 64113) — the trend is pretty  much the same as in the Waldo area.  As the holidays get closer and the weather cools down–sales are slower.  There aren’t as many new listings coming on the market, so buyers have less to choose from.

Currently there are 60 homes for sale in Waldo, with a median list price of $135,000 and 49 days on market.  (All information from Heartland MLS; numbers are deemed reliable but not guaranteed).
