🏡 Found a house you love? Before you get caught up in the kitchen or backyard, look a little deeper.

When touring a home, pay attention to:

👀 Signs of water damage
🏠 Age and apparent condition of the roof
❄️ HVAC age
🪟 Window condition
🚿 Water pressure
🔌 Visible electrical concerns
🚪 Doors that don't open or close properly
🌳 Drainage around the exterior
🚗 Street traffic and neighborhood activity

You don't have to become a home inspector overnight. That's what the professionals are for!

But looking beyond the finishes can help you ask better questions and make a more informed decision.

SAVE this checklist for your next home tour.

📊 What’s happening in the Kansas City housing market?

As we head further into fall, Kansas City continues to be a market where both buyers AND sellers need to pay attention to the numbers.

Here’s a quick snapshot:

🏡 Median listing price: approximately $390,000
📅 Median time on market: 50 days
📉 Nearly 1 in 5 listings have had a price reduction
🏘️ Inventory remains relatively tight compared with national trends

What does that mean?

Sellers: Pricing correctly from the beginning matters. Buyers have options and are paying attention to value.

Buyers: You may have more negotiating opportunities than you think, especially with homes that have been sitting on the market or have already had a price adjustment.

Real estate is hyper-local. Want to know what these numbers look like in YOUR neighborhood? Send us a message!
