Using the past 15 days of market stats in the above chart, we can figure the absorption rate in Prairie Village to be 6.4 months of inventory on the market. Looking at absorption rates provides valuable information on the supply and demand of real estate in Prairie Village. 6.4 months of inventory is high and clearly it’s a Buyer’s market in Prairie Village. But 6 months of inventory isn’t like the upper bracket communities where some are seeing 2 years of inventory on the market. It’s also good to see such a high average price ($250,686) for the 7 homes that did go under contract the past 15 days. That’s much higher than the $199,455 average sales price over the same period. The 20 homes that came on the market also appear priced well overall.

Prairie Village is an excellent community for home buyers who want reasonably priced homes that have character and intangibles like tree-lined streets. If you’re considering selling or buying a Prairie Village Kansas home, you’ll need more than just 15 days of market stats. You’ll also need to see the market stats specific to the subdivision, zip code (and sometimes even the block)  that  interests you most.
