Checking The Pulse Of The Kansas City Real Estate Market
Real Estate Info for The City of Overland Park KS
Recent 15 Days of Overland Park Kansas Market Activity
After looking over the past 15 days of Overland Park Kansas real estate activity, I used the figures to calculate the city’s short-term absorption rate. After taking into account the 946 homes for sale in Overland Park, we find there’s 10.8 months of inventory on the market. This is high and Overland Park home sellers need an improvement on an 88 home sale a month pace to eat into the 900+ homes for sale in Overland Park.

* The Average $ of Newest Contracts considers the price the homes were listed at when they went under contract. Data pulled from Heartland MLS and deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Low samplings in any category can skew results. Stats may not be an exact 15 days from date of this post. DOM = Days On Market.
There’s great news in the 94 homes that went under contract during the same 15-day period — that’s more than double the number of homes that closed. If we were to assume all those 94 homes under contract will close (and use that figure to calculate the absorption rate), we’d find there’s 5.1 months of real estate inventory in Overland Park. 5 to 7 seven months of inventory is considered a stable market, so let’s hope the sales trend continues. Still, average prices are a concern with the average home coming on the market around $297,000 but the average home selling for about $240,000.
