ZIP 64116 (Kansas City, MO) continues to look competitive, but the latest closed-sale data shows some price softness even as online value estimates trend modestly higher.
Top takeaways
- January 2026 median sale price was $289,000 (down 6.8% year over year) with homes averaging 34 days on market (Redfin).
- Zillow’s typical home value is $257,302 (up 2.0% over the past year, data through Jan 31, 2026).
- Active inventory remains limited: Zillow shows 43 homes for sale and 13 new listings (as of Jan 31, 2026).
Market snapshot
Sales & speed: Redfin reports 57 homes sold in January 2026. Homes are still moving, but not instantly—about a month from list to sale on average—so buyers may have a bit more time for inspections and financing than in peak-frenzy periods.
Prices: The mixed signals matter. Closed sales (what buyers actually paid) were lower year over year in January, while Zillow’s value trend shows modest appreciation over the past 12 months. Different methodologies can pull in different directions, so it helps to anchor decisions to recent comparable sales while using portal estimates as a secondary reference.
List-side pricing: Zillow shows a $302,000 median list price (Jan 31, 2026), which is useful as a quick read on seller expectations heading into spring.
What this means for buyers and sellers
Buyers: In a ‘very competitive’ ZIP, strong offers still win. The opportunity today is being selective: watch the new-listing flow, compare price-per-square-foot to nearby comps, and be ready to move quickly on well-priced homes.
Sellers: With the median sale price down year over year on Redfin, pricing and presentation matter. Homes that feel ‘move-in ready’ (paint, roofing, mechanicals, and clean inspection results) tend to protect value when buyers have choices.
