Jordan's read on the market
Kitscoty had the sharpest improvement of any town in the past year. The median sale price rose from $219,750 in the prior twelve months to $275,000 in the past twelve, and the median time to sell fell from 54 days to 33. Some of that is mix — the homes that sold this year were larger — but price per square foot also moved from $216 to $252, which is a real gain.
With 19 sales in the past year and 5 homes listed today, supply is about 3.2 months. The weak spot is new construction: three 2025-built bi-levels in the $361,000–$500,000 range expired after 188 to 311 days, and a fourth has just been listed at $519,900, while resale homes in the $250,000–$400,000 range moved in weeks. Buyers here are paying for established homes, not paying a premium for new.
Bungalows dominate (25 of 43 sales, median $262,000). Homes built in the 2000s commanded the top of the market at a median of $382,500; 1960s and 70s homes sold at a median of $199,000.

| Under $200k | 12 | 1 | 2.0 |
| $200–299k | 19 | 1 | 1.3 |

How long homes took to sell
Median 38 days, average 69. 43% of sales needed two months or more.
What the failed listings say
Over the past two years, 15 Kitscoty listings came off the market unsold — expired, withdrawn or terminated — against 43 that sold. That is a 26% failure rate. Those listings asked a median of $259,000 and sat a median of 188 days before giving up; the median home that sold closed at $259,000.
The sale-to-list ratio is measured against the final asking price, after any reductions, so it flatters listings that started high and came down. In a market this size, the first price is the one that decides whether a home sells at all.

Town-level statistics establish context; they cannot value a specific property. In smaller communities a single sale can move the median, and two homes on the same street routinely sell tens of thousands apart.
A written, property-specific evaluation accounts for lot, outbuildings, basement, garage, condition and what is competing for the same buyer today.
