🏡 The first price reduction didn’t work. The second one changed everything.

The Firefly Inn, an 1880 Victorian bed and breakfast in Weston, Missouri, was reduced to $540,000 — but it still didn’t go under contract.

Then came a bigger reset to $499,000. The result? Three offers, and a final sale price of $540,000!🎯

Katy Gaines and Nelson Home Group marketed this unique property to the right audience, including buyers interested in historic homes and operating a bed and breakfast.

The lesson for sellers? Your asking price doesn’t just determine your home’s value — it can determine which buyers see it in the first place. Sometimes, a small price cut isn’t enough to get the right attention.

If your listing has gone quiet, it might be time to rethink your pricing strategy.

📍 Selling a historic home, acreage, or a property with a business attached in Weston, Platte County, or the Kansas City Northland? Let’s talk about finding the right buyer for your property.

The Chiefs move could help my Basehor short-term rental with games, concerts and other event weekends. But I do not expect those weekends alone to make the full-year numbers work. Time will tell. My possible $50,000 sale loss is a current estimate, not a completed sale calculation. I have not seen evidence to count on higher home values or long-term rents.

Text me your situation so we can work through your actual sale alternative and holding costs.

The Chiefs new stadium does not guarantee a payday for homeowners. The Arlington study measured a relative decline before Cowboys stadium construction. It does not predict what will happen around the Chiefs projects.

Run your sale numbers first. On nelsonhomegroupkc.com, search “seller net sheet calculator” to estimate proceeds and compare the sale alternative with holding costs.

$414,000 median sold. 120 homes closed. But here's what the headline hides: above $450,000, Smithville has just 10 homes on the market right now — against 47 sales in that range in the first six months of the year alone. That's barely a month of supply at the top of the market.

Under $450K, there's real inventory and new construction to choose from. Above it, buyers are fighting over scraps — one Lake Meadows home went under contract in two days, over asking, in June.

If you own a $450K+ home in Smithville and you've been "thinking about it," the data's telling you something.

We track every tier, every quarter, straight from HMLS.

Congratulations to Morgan and Luis, two veterans who just became homeowners in De Soto! 🎉🏡🇺🇸

Morgan was buying for the first time, and the two of them had a puzzle to solve. Both sets of grandparents live about an hour apart, so they wanted a home right in the middle. They were also working with a tight budget. Josh Seitz showed them plenty of houses, but only one made them fall in love: an updated walkout in DeMeadows Estates, almost exactly halfway between Topeka and Overland Park.

It hit the market in late May with other buyers circling. They needed the sellers to cover most of their closing costs, and they went for it anyway. Josh ran the numbers on recent sales first, then they offered over asking so the price could carry the closing costs instead of their savings. The VA appraisal came in right at the contract price. 🙌

They won the house, the sellers covered most of the closing costs, and Morgan and Luis walked away from the closing table with a little money back in their pockets. They were thrilled, and the part that surprised them most was that the house had enough value in it to make the whole plan work.

Morgan, Luis, welcome home, and thank you for your service. We’re so honored to have been part of this one. 💙

🏈 **Will the Chiefs' move raise Kansas City home values?**

If you own a home in Basehor, Bonner Springs, KCK, Olathe, or nearby communities, you might be wondering whether the Chiefs' new stadium and planned headquarters will make your property more valuable.

The honest answer? **We don't know yet.**

🏡 Stadium projects don't guarantee higher home values. New developments could create opportunities, but taxes, competition from new construction, rental income, and ongoing ownership costs all matter.

I'm looking at this decision myself with my Basehor property. Before deciding whether to sell or hold, I'm comparing realistic sale proceeds against rental income, holding costs, and the risks involved.

**Don't make your decision based on a future Chiefs premium. Run your numbers first.**
