The Wichita-area housing market
South Central Kansas MLS figures, Nov 2025 to Oct 2026, plus what is for sale today. No adjectives, just the numbers and what they usually mean.
What the numbers say
From Aug 2026 to Oct 2026, 2,677 homes sold in the Wichita area at a median sold price of $252,000. Compared with May 2026 to Jul 2026, the median was up 2.6%. The number of sales was down 21% over the same stretch. Today there are 2,430 active homes, which at the recent sales pace is 2.7 months of supply. By the usual rule of thumb, under 3 months tends to favor sellers. A home that closed in the last 90 days took 55 days (median) from listing agreement to closing. Nobody knows next month. What we do know is what just happened, and that is what is above.

Where these figures come from
- Everything here comes from the South Central Kansas MLS through MLS Grid, the same replica that powers this site's search. Residential properties only.
- Sold price is the search price the MLS records on a closed listing. It is the best sold figure the feed carries, not a certified closing statement, which is why we say median and not to-the-dollar.
- Days listing to closing is the close date minus the listing contract date: the whole journey, not just days to an accepted offer.
- Months of supply is homes active today divided by the average monthly sales over the last three months. The common rule of thumb: under 3 favors sellers, 3 to 6 is balanced, over 6 favors buyers. A rule of thumb, not a promise.
- A month with fewer than 5 sales shows its count but no median. Small samples make misleading medians.
