Kalispell Market Report: Residential Homes – June 2023

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with eXp Commercial, Referral Divison RRE-BRO-LIC-75443

Following is an overview of the Kalispell Montana real estate results for the residential market as of June 2023. This report covers the entire residential market, including single family homes, townhouses, condominiums and manufactured homes.

The Kalispell residential market remains a seller's market. That being said, in June sales decreased from the previous month and remain lower than last year. Inventory increased for the third month in a row and homes under contract also increased. The Kalispell market is still experiencing a seller's market but continues to move towards a more balanced market.

 
Sales Volume

In the month of June 2023, there were 73 residential sales in Kalispell which is 19% less than last month and 9% less than last year. Total year-to-date sales are 17% of the same time period in 2022. This year's home market is definitely softer (so far) than last year's.

Of the homes that sold in June, seven were condos with an average sale price of $422,900. Six were town homes ($ 447,000), two manufactured homes ($ 230,000) and the remainder were single family homes ($614,950).

Inventory

In terms of available homes on the market, inventory had seen significant upward movement early last year but available homes starting dropping in August 2022 and continued to do so through March of this year. However, April did see a 23% increase in listings with 198 homes on the market, May increased to 218 and June is now at 252. That provides buyers with more choices.

Of the homes currently available, 21 are condominiums, 12 are townhouses, seven are manufactured homes and the rest are single family homes.

In the past twelve months, 808 residential homes sold in Kalispell which is an average of 67 per month. With 252 homes currently for sale, that means there are 3.8 months of inventory currently available which is higher than last month. At this time, Kalispell remains a seller's market.

Type of homes being sold

To get an idea of the types of homes that are selling in Kalispell, the lowest priced home that sold in June was a three bedroom, two bath manufactured home with 1152 square feet of living space. The sale did not include any real estate and the home needed to be moved to another property. It was listed at $40K. The most expensive property was a four bedroom, four bath home with ~3,800 square feet, ten acres and a view of mountains. This home was listed at $1.9M.

Kalispell has just about any kind of property you can imagine. Brand new four bedroom homes, large custom homes, manufactured homes, small off-the-grid cabins and everything in between!

 
Summary

The residential real estate market in Kalispell Montana saw some changes this month and while it is still a seller's market, it appears to be moving towards a more balanced market. We'll see what happens next month!

Hi Kat... a stellar report, as always. We are not anywhere near a balanced market in many parts of the Charlotte region. We keep seeing fewer new listings and they are now impacting inventory trends.

Yikes, Nina Hollander, Broker  - it's been the same way for quite a while in your area!

Kat Palmiotti hi Kat... we have these little downward blips here and there, but the market seems to bounce back quickly.

The key fact you offer is the absorption rate trending to just under 4 months of inventory which is creeping to a neutral market, where buyers will have a chance to buy.

Kat, It's interesting to note that the residential real estate market in Kalispell, is showing signs of transitioning from a seller's market towards a more balanced market. Yes, lets see how the market continues to evolve in the coming months.

And the land market is a buyer's market and is no where near transitioning to a balanced market Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400 !

Good morning, Kat Palmiotti - A lot has changed since I visited Montana! I wish I would have bought property in 2017 or 2018. I would have built up a lot of equity! Now, the best I could hope for is a visit. 

You put together a very comprehensive report on the market. Buyers and Sellers will appreciate you!

I love that you're trending towards a neutral market, Kat. We can only dream of that here in the Charlotte Metro! The critically low inventory is thwarting any movement towards neutrality!

Another exceptional report, Kat. Anyone thinking of buying OR selling in the Kalispell market need only make one call - to YOU!
