15 Days of Olathe Kansas Market Activity

After calculating the absorption rate over the past 15 days in Olathe KS and comparing it to the volume of homes currently on the market, there’s 10.7 months of inventory in the city. It’s still a buyer’s market but really that’s not a bad amount of inventory when you consider the time of year and the winter weather the past several weeks. The average sales price of the new listings is also $30,000 lower than the average sales price over the same period. So there should be some excellent inventory for buyers to consider.

The homes that closed the past 15 days took right at 4 months to sell and that’s reasonable in our current market.

15 Days of Olathe Kansas Market Activity

After calculating the absorption rate over the past 15 days in the City Of Olathe Kansas, we find there’s 16.5 months of inventory on the market. This is very high and seeing just 31 sales over 15 days is a concern. To eat up more than 1,000 listings city-wide in Olathe, the sales pace is going to have to pick up. Fortunately the number of homes that went under contract (67) during the same 15-day period was better. If we assumed that all 67 of those home would make it closing and used that figure to calculate absorption rate, the results would be an improved 7.6 months on market .

Let’s hope the homes we’re seeing go under contract make it all the way to closing so we can eat up a chunk of the available inventory.
