Context

The 50313 market looks cooler than a fast seller's market. There are 70 homes for sale and 20 new listings, so buyers have choices without a flood of supply. A median of 61 days on market gives shoppers time to compare. With 25.9% of listings showing a price cut and the typical home value down 1.1% over the past year, overpricing is getting corrected. For a seller, pricing needs to match recent cuts and buyer pace, not last spring's memory.
