Shortage of real estate inventory means NOW is the time to sell… Especially under the $500,000 price range!

The Jason Brown Group

Inventory in Johnson County Kansas has been down for more than two years and right now we’re hovering around 2 months of inventory in many areas. 5 to 7 months of inventory is considered a balanced market.  In my 25 years in the real estate industry, I’ve never seen anything like it. Right now in Olathe Kansas we have the lowest volume of inventory I’ve ever seen… There’s just 1.6 months of inventory on the market!  That’s simply are not enough homes to meet demand and I’m in search of listings to put on the market right now, especially in the under $500,000 price range.

Temp 1105
If you know ANYONE thinking about selling their home, I can help them. I’ll run a market assessment to show them where they’d be if we were in a balanced real estate market. Then I’ll show them what the current market means to them. In quick moving areas right now, buyers in the $400’s price range can likely add 4 to 6% on to the list price and still get great activity… Buyers in the $300’s price range can likely add 6 to 8% on to the list price and still get great activity… Buyers in the $200’s price range can likely add 8 to 10% on to the list price and still get great activity.

My cost effective listing preparation tips help sellers get their homes ready to go on the market quickly and with the least amount of hassle possible. We then get to work to get our seller’s homes under contract quickly and SOLD for the highest possible price. I definitely have the experience and systems in place to ensure my sellers get the best possible deal.

If you know anyone considering a move, PLEASE let me know or have them call me… 913-915-6008. I’ll go out of my way to take care of them and make sure they get a great deal! We definitely go above and beyond for our clients, including right now we’re having a promotion assisting buyers with the costs of a home inspection during the home buying process… See promotion details here!

Hot Kansas City Real Estate Market Continues through 2nd Quarter of 2016

The Jason Brown Group

During the 2nd quarter of 2016, the volume of home sales has continued to rise and home sales prices have followed. As it has for around a year now, the supply of homes for sale is failing to meet the buyer demand for homes. Not only has supply not started to correct itself, the volume of inventory has continues to go down while the demand for homes has remained on the rise.

2032

Kansas City area home sellers continue to obtain a very high percentage of their asking price with most obtaining 98% to 100%+ of asking price. Closings in the metro area rose 4.9% in the 2nd quarter with 11,605 home sales this year compared to 11,065 2nd quarter of last year. There were 8,582 homes for sale during the 2nd quarter this year and that’s a huge drop from the 11,894 homes for sale at this time last year… And compared to 4 years, listings are down an incredible 40%!

Overall in the Kansas City metro area, there’s 2.8 months of inventory on the market. That volume of inventory indicates a Seller’s real estate market. At this time last year there was 4.2 months available and while that’s still a seller’s market, it’s a much stronger seller’s market right now. And 3 years ago there was 5.7 months of inventory and that amount of inventory represented a balanced real estate market. Essentially we have about HALF the number of homes available for home buyers as we did a few years ago. This is a major reason home sellers have obtained an average sales price of $186,000 metro wide, which is $10,000 higher than 2nd quarter a year ago.

The current hot summer real estate market looks very much like it will continue right into the fall, and possibly all the way through it. But there’s also a lot going in the world that could change things… And interest rates are sure to rise at some point. The election year has historically played a role in the direction of the real estate market and nobody knows for sure just how that’s going to turn out. For now, we remain in a very fast paced market. If you’re thinking about making a move, give me a call to discuss the effects our current market have on your home buying and home selling decisions.
