Springfield Homes

Are Springfield Homes Priced Right?

With the help of Active Rain, showing a prospective client the market statistics today, I used the

Springfield MLS statistics to design the comparison of Solds to New Listings.

Springfield Mo homes compared to last year: We were able to see the number of listings increased, the number of sales have decreased....... to be exact, sales for 2006 was 6583 compared to sales for 2007 of 5809. Listings for 2006 were 13820 compared to 14923 for 2007.

What this means to the consumer: If you are in the market to purchase a home, now is the perfect time to buy. Springfield homes are now being marketed to reflect the competative market. If you insult the seller with a low offer, expect them to reject the offer. They have already adjusted their prices to reflect the changing times. Perhaps looking for a bank owned property might be the alternative.

If you are selling: Prepare your home to be the best looking home on the market for the least amount. Today, Springfield homes priced right compares to buying a pair of socks.....would you buy a dirty pair of socks for the same price as a new pair? Of course not! Same concept applies to selling a used home.

Today's homes priced right offers great home in the Springfield Mo real estate at good prices. Call the "K" Team and let us help you find your next great investment. Visit http://www.kayvankampen.com/.
