15 Days of Overland Park Kansas Market Activity

After calculating the absorption rate over the past 15 days in Overland Park Kansas, we find the city has 9.2 months of inventory currently on the market. This amount of inventory represents a continuation of a buyer’s market in Overland Park Kansas. Though the numbers of home sold (closed) the past 15 days wasn’t too impressive, more than double that number of homes went under contract. If the 143 homes that went under contract were to make it the closing table, the amount of inventory (calculated on the current volume of 1,150 homes for sale in Overland Park) could be re-calculated at right around 4 months of inventory.

Using these past 15 days of market stats to figure the absorption rate in Overland Park KS, there’s currently 4 months of inventory on the market.  Having just four months of inventory on the market is excellent. Of course we all know that many sales are distressed sales – like desperate sellers, bank foreclosures and short sales – but that doesn’t change the fact that (1) Overland Park is holding steady with just 4 months of inventory on the market and (2) the average sales price the past 15 days ($257,743) is almost the same as the average listing prices seen over the same period ($261,199).

Overland Park has always been a steady market and proven to be one of the safest real estate investment areas in Kansas City.  Do keep in mind that looking at just 15 days of Overland Park market stats is a small snap shot of local activity. Market conditions can and do vary greatly from one city to the next, one subdivision to the next, one street to the next… So feel free to contact me with questions specific to your area.
