The Sunflower Association of Realtors is seeing a huge drop in available homes in Shawnee County. According to the March 2021 Housing Report, there were 92 active listings in the county. That’s a drop of 62 percent compared to the year before. CEO Linda Briden said they currently have only a two-week supply of homes for sale. She said the lack of inventory is causing the market to move quickly. “There will be very little time for a buyer to make a decision on a property that they really like,” Briden said. “It could go on the MLS in the morning and it could be under contract by afternoon. That’s how tight it is.” Briden said homes in Shawnee County are currently selling for 100 percent of the listing price. According to the report, the listing price of homes has gone up 21.5 percent over the past year.
