We had some interesting stats regarding home sales last month in Waldo–a double digit drop in the median sold price! However, the year-to-date figures are more consistent so let’s look at the specifics. I’m tracking single family home sales with the boundaries of Gregory to 85th St; State Line to Holmes:

august 2025august 2024
Median list price:$270,000$350,000
Median sales price:$277,500$355,000
Days on market:84
No. of homes sold:3032

You can see that the median sales price dropped almost 28% from August 2024! Now the homes in Waldo cover a wide range of prices; from small $200K homes through $600K. So last August, we had more of the upper priced homes close in Waldo. In fact last month, the lowest closed price was $143,000 and the highest was $670,000. Here are the year-to-date numbers:

jan-aug 2025jan-aug 2024
Median list price:$300,000$299,000
Median sales price:$301,000$305,500
Days on market:53
No. of homes sold:207184

These numbers show a slight drop in home values for the year, with 11% more homes selling so far. Currently there are 26 active single family homes listed in Waldo, with a median list price of $308,725 and 29 days on the market.

Halfway through the year and Waldo home prices overall are up, which is the opposite of it’s neighbor Brookside during the same time frame. Let’s take a look; these stats are for single family homes bounded by State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th St.

JUNE 2024JUNE 2023
Median list price:$305,000$322,500
Median sales price:$326,000$333,750
Days on market:43
No. of homes sold:3336

Buyers paid an average of 6.8% over asking price; yet prices dropped just over 2% compared to the same period last year. The lowest closed price was $125,000 and the highest was $631,000–that was $56K over list price. Yes friends, there are still bidding wars going on! Here are the year-to-date numbers:

JAN-JUNE 2024JAN-JUNE 2023
Median list price:$299,000$292,500
Median sales price:$305,500$296,000
Days on market:33
No. of homes sold:128142

Here we see that the median sales price rose 3% compared to a year ago; that is a modest increase. Buyers are paying about 2% over the list price; the number of homes that changed owners dropped by 10%.

Currently there are 23 single family homes for sale in Waldo–and over half of them are under $300K. Current median price is $255,000. This could be the time to buy–more selection as some homes sit on the market longer. Traditionally there is some reason a house sits for more than a few days–just see the days on market stat in the charts above! Still, if buyers can be a bit more flexible, there may be some Waldo deals out there!

Wonderful Waldo, homebuyers want to live there and prices keep going up as a result! There’s been a big gain in home values compared to last year, as you’ll see with the stats below. Let’s start with the July numbers; I’m using Waldo boundaries of Gregory to 85th and State Line to Holmes for the numbers:

July 2022July 2021
Median list price:$285,000$234,500
Median sales price:$301,000$260,000
Days on market: 3 2
No. homes sold: 35 32

Homes that closed last month were about 5% over the asking price; and values rose 15.7% compared to July 2021. The lowest closed price was $150K and the highest was $525,000.

Here are the year-to-date stats:

January -July 2022January-July 2021
Median list price: $259,000 $250,000
Median sales price: $278,000 $265,000
Days on market: 3 2
No. homes sold: 187 233

Overall, home prices are up 4.9% this year as compared to same period last year. And buyers are still paying over the list price. You’ll note fewer houses selling; 25% less than a year ago. This could be a result of higher interest rates that kicked in this spring.

Currently there are 18 single family homes for sale in Waldo with an average list price of $270,500 and 17 days on the market. Prices range from $139,000 to $485,000.

Just like the days during COVID 19 can all seem the same, these sales stats for Waldo home sales have been very much the same this year! I’m using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th for this report, single family homes.

November 2020November 2019
Median list price: $249,950$225,000
Median sales price: $250,700$221,250
No. of homes sold: 26 26
Days on market: 10 13

The numbers tell us the home prices up since last November; about the same time on market and same number of homes sold. Year-to-date figures are below:

Jan-Nov 2020Jan-Nov 2019
Median list price: $225,000$225,000
Median sales price: $230,000$220,000
No. of homes sold: 342 327
Days on market: 4 10

The sales price is over the list price, showing again how bidding wars can be common and most sellers getting at or over asking price. More homes sold so far this year, indicating the strong demand. Next month I’ll post December and year end comparisons.

Currently there are 15 active single family listings in Waldo, with a median list price of $299,000 and 27 days on market.

Reading this blog may seem like the Groundhog’s Day movie…same news about Waldo home values increasing, over and over!  Let’s take a look at the numbers:

July 2019                                                              July 2018

Median list price:     $239,000                         Median list price:    $215,000

Median sales price:   $243,000                       Median sales price:  $210,000

No. of homes sold:     34                                  No. of homes sold:      43

Days on market:      3                                       Days on market:         8

Most of the homes that closed last month sold at or over list price, at a substantial increase over last July.  Fewer homes sold, and were available, so that pushes prices up and note–listings went under contract in an average of 3 days!  Below are YTD numbers:

Jan-July 2019                                                               Jan-July 2018

Median list price:     $225,000                                  Median list price:     $199,800

No. of homes sold:     198                                         No. of homes sold:     234

Days on market:        8                                             Days on market:         16

When there are fewer homes for sale, prices go up–that’s what’s been happening in Waldo.  Most sellers continue to get ask or over list price for their homes.  So far, Waldo home prices  have risen 12.5% this year.  Currently there are 29 active listings, with a median price of $235,000 and 41 days on market.  Prices range from $45,000 to $399,000.
