Market Pulse: July 2026
Kansas City's existing-home market stayed active in July, with closings posting the strongest year-over-year gain since early spring. The median resale price held near record levels while new listing activity pulled back slightly from last year. The notable shift this month: pending sales growth cooled sharply after June's surge, signaling that summer momentum may be leveling off.
