Springfield Missouri and the surrounding areas are no different than the rest of the USA.Inventory is down and prices continue to rise.  Buyers are still buying, even while interest rates rise.  I can still remember assuming a mortgage at 15.875% when I first moved to Missouri, so an interest rate of 6% doesn't seem so bad right now.  However, we have been spoiled by lower rates over the last few years.  I don't seem them coming back for many years, so if you are wanting to buy, now is the time.Call The "KAY" Team now to get started on buying or selling your next home.  417-839-4534. Photo courtesy of Springfield MLS 04/18/2023
