Katie's Market Insights

Low Inventory Driving Competition

Active listings remain well below historical averages across South Central Kansas, keeping upward pressure on prices and shortening time on market. Buyers should be prepared to move quickly and make competitive offers.

Interest Rates Stabilizing

Mortgage rates have shown signs of stabilization, bringing more buyers back to the market. Pre-approval is more important than ever — knowing your budget gives you a real edge in a competitive environment.

Newton Remains a Top Value

Newton continues to offer exceptional value compared to Wichita, with strong community amenities, excellent schools, and a tight-knit neighborhood feel. Fourth-generation Newton local Katie Walton knows every street and subdivision.
