Waldo Home Sales Report-July 2022

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.

Hello neighbors! It’s a typical gray November day as I write this blog…still, much to be thankful for this week of Thanksgiving 2020. Waldo home sellers continue to experience fast sales on their properties, often with multiple offers. Here are the stats for single family homes in Waldo last month, using the boundaries of Gregory to 85th; State Line to Holmes:

Median sales price: $237,500$178,950

So, the number of homes changing owners remains steady; prices are up! Last month, 19 of the 29 homes that closed were at or over list price. Here are the year-to-date numbers:

So much demand, not enough inventory. Currently, there are 18 active listings in Waldo, with a median list price of $250,000.

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

Median sales price:  $225,000                                 Median sales price:   $200,000

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.

I remember a time not that long ago when I would show homebuyers in Waldo a pretty nice, small 3 bedroom, one and a half bath home in Waldo for under $200K near 75th and Wornall. Not anymore–buyers are having to go farther south and/or east, plan fix up projects or get less square feet for that price.  Waldo home values continue to rise at a fast pace. Here are the stats, using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th St:

May 2019                                                                  May 2018

Median list price:     $229,950                               Median list price:      $224,700

Median sales price:    $227,500                            Median sales price:    $227,000

No. of homes sold:       40                                       No. of homes sold:      40

Days on market:          4                                           Days on market:          9

Prices rose over last May, and homes went under contract faster. The lowest sales price was $49,950 and the highest was $375,000.  Here are year-to-date figures:

Jan-May 2019                                                            Jan-May 2018

 Median list price:     $225,000                                Median list price:     $195,000

Median sales price:    $219,950                              Median sales price:     $195,000

No. of homes sold:       132                                      No. of homes sold:          161

Days on market:          10                                        Days on market:           15

Fewer homes have sold YTD, but home prices up 12.79% over last year.  There is still a huge demand for well maintained, move in ready homes in Waldo, especially near the bustling 75th and Wornall intersection. Being close to restaurants, shops, services–on just about every Waldo homebuyers wish list!  Currently there are 32 homes for sale, with a median asking price of $242,475 and 29 days on market.

Double digit increases in home values continue in the Waldo area…when is the market going to slow down in this super hot neighborhood??  Here are the May 2018 single family home sales stats for Waldo, using the boundaries of State Line to Holmes and Gregory to 85th St:
