15 Days of Northland Kansas City Market Activity
Including: homes in the North Kansas City, Liberty & Parkhill School Districts

Using the past 15 days of market stats in the chart below, we can figure the absorption rate for the Northland Kansas City area to be 12.5 months of inventory. Looking at absorption rates helps us compare the supply and demand of real estate in the northland Kansas City area. These market stats include all home communities that are served by the North Kansas City School District, Liberty School District and the Parkhill School District. Having more than a year of inventory is high, but the low number of closed sales the past month can be partly attributed to the time of year and the inclement weather we’ve seen recently.

* 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.

The number of homes that went under contract was impressive and more than double the number of homes that closed over the same 15-day period. If we used the number of homes that went under contract (assuming they’d all make it to closing), the absorption rate would be a much-improved 4.9 months of inventory in the northland Kansas City area.

In the North Kansas City area there continues to be more homes coming on the market than homes going under contract (pending) or than homes being sold (closed). But the number of contracts pending (83) is closing the gap on the number of new listings (119) which is a good sign. Using the past 15 days of Sold homes as a basis for figuring the absorption rate in North Kansas City, there’s a little less than 8 months of inventory on the market within the area that is served by the North Kansas City School District. 

Keep in mind that a 15-day period is a small sampling of North Kansas City market activity. It’s designed to look at the what’s going on now in the current real estate market and while a 15-day period could indicate a trend forming, it does not necessarily show a real estate markets long-term trend.
