Volker’s rolling three-month numbers show home values rising over the past year while activity has shifted. The typical home value is up nearly 10% year over year, outpacing the broader Kansas City gain of about 2.5%. At the same time, homes sold in this period are down more than 20% from a year ago, even as new listings have increased.
In the latest rolling window through July 2026, listings and supply have both expanded. Active listings are up more than a third year over year, and months of supply has climbed to 3.7, well above the citywide level of 2.6 months, pointing to more options for buyers than last year. Pending sales, however, have surged more than 50% compared with a year ago, indicating buyers are still moving quickly when the right home appears. Nearly half of recent sales closed above list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is essentially at 100%, reflecting firm pricing power for well-positioned homes.
Homes are spending a bit less than a month on the market, and about 38% go off the market within two weeks, underscoring that desirable properties still attract fast offers despite higher inventory. This mix of stronger prices, more supply, and steady demand contributes to Volker’s designation as a seller’s market. Whether you are a buyer trying to navigate these shifting conditions or a seller aiming to price and time your move, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local agent who understands the Volker market in detail.
