Is Now The Right Time To Buy A Home In Kansas City or Johnson County Kansas?

Checking The Pulse Of The Kansas City Real Estate Market

No doubt about it, most of the news we’re hearing on the real estate market is bad news. But here in Kansas City, Johnson County Kansas, Overland Park and the surrounding areas, we’re MUCH better off than many metro area real estate markets. This can be hard to see because even a 5% loss is a big loss — especially on an investment you count on appreciating. But things could be much worse as many cities have lost 10%, 20%, 30% or more of their property values… it’s been reported that property values in Merced California’s have fallen more than 50%. Whether you’ve lost 5% or 50% in property values, at some point the market is going to turn around and those who buy now, in a down market, are likely to make a LOT of equity (i.e. money).


Unfortunately, knowing the perfect time to buy is nearly impossible. We’ll be well into the recovery before you or I know it and before the media is reporting it. That’s why I’m always interested to hear what the “experts” are saying. Consider this… Economist Paul Dales estimates that housing prices are UNDERVALUED by 24%! Whether or not home prices fall next month, anyone with a long-term real estate strategy stands to make huge gains if Dale’s estimate is remotely accurate. Dales goes on to compare the historical relationship between income and home prices housing and finds home prices are as UNDERVALUED as they’ve been since the 1970’s.

15 Days of Overland Park KS Market Activity

This is a tricky time of year to be looking at real estate market stats, but using the past 15 days of market stats in the chart below, we can figure the absorption rate in  Overland Park KS to be 12.5 months of inventory on the market. This is very high but keep in mind that very few real estate closings are typically scheduled during the holiday season. We’ll check these stats again in a few weeks and see how much improvement there is. There was good news to be found in the 35 sales we did see, as the average sales price was almost $13,000 higher than the homes that came on the market over the same period. The average days on market (63) of the homes that sold was very reasonable, however the homes that went under contract were on the market about twice that long (131 days).
