Prospect, KY

While doing a little research for homes in Prospect, Ky, I decided to compared the asking price of homes currently for sale in Prospect to the smaller group of homes just coming on to the market in any given week. There is a very discernable difference between the two numbers, and lately, the number has only been getting bigger and bigger, with almost $55,000 separating the two variables. Think about that for just one second: If you are a home owner in Prospect, with a home for sale around $500,000, and the new listings are coming on the market for $450,000, that is going to seriously affect your chances of finding a buyer any time soon.

I just wrapped up a very short article on www.LouisvilleKyRealEstateBlog.com about home prices for Prospect Ky real estate, and how listings just coming on to the market are priced quite a bit lower than homes already sitting on the market. In addition, homes leaving the market, either pending, sold, or just plain taken off of the market, are priced even lower, more than 10% less than the median price of existing listings. As an example, in Prospect, where the median price of homes currently on the market is $500,000, homes are being absorbed at a median price of close to $435,000, a difference of $65,000!

On a few of my other blog sites, I have recently written an article or two about the current real estate market in Prospect Ky. Here is a chart that I did not share on any of those sites, but still found it interesting. According to the good folks at Altos Research, where I get most of my data, a market action index for any area that is below 30 falls squarely into a buyer's market, with the lower the number being indicative of just how far into that buyer's market your area is. With that in mind, let's look at the chart above. On September 17th of this year, the Median Market Action Index for Prospect Ky was just at 19, a solid buyer's market. Now, about one month later, maybe five weeks, the measurement is 12, a pretty steep fall. The good news is that this may just be normal fluctuation in the market conditions. But the bad news remains: Even if you even things out a bit and look at a rolling 90 day trend line, Prospect is still looking at a Market Action Index of about 15, hardly anything to cheer about.
