Residential Real Estate Market update for Nottingham Forest South OP KS

Overland Park Homes in Nottingham Forest South suburban Kansas City Housing Market Update November 23rd, 2010

Overland Park homes for sale in Nottingham Forest South, suburban Southern Johnson County 66223

As of November 23rd, 2010, there are 7 Overland Park homes listed for sale in Nottingham Forest South The seller’s asking price, or list prices, range from $349,950 to $550,000. Some buyers in this price range may also consider homes in Leawood if they want to leave closer to Stateline Road or Prairie Village if they want to live more in the Northern section of Johnson County.

How fast are Nottingham Forest South houses in Overland Park selling and how much are they selling for?

During the last 6 months, 9 homes in Nottingham Forest South Overland Park KS 66223 have sold in the range of $385,000 to $507,500. These prices are pretty similar to homes selling in Lionsgate or Hampton Place.

Comparing this market snapshot to one from from 6 months ago, I notice the lowest asking price and lowest selling prices are on the rise.

Is it possible we have hit bottom?
