    Seasonal averages from the last 24 months of Maize, KS sales. Individual results vary with price, condition, and how the broader market moves. A local agent can pinpoint the right timing for your home.

    What These Numbers Mean for Maize Buyers and Sellers

    The Housing Market Trends module above shows a market where Maize homes carry a median sale price of $330,321, a figure that moved +10.1% year over year. Read alongside the competitive indicators, the picture is more balanced than the headline price suggests. With 2.8 months of supply and roughly 70 active listings against 26 homes sold in a typical month, neither side holds a decisive edge, and where a specific listing lands depends heavily on pricing discipline.

    Several signals point toward buyer leverage on a subset of homes. About 30.7% of listings recorded a price reduction, and the median property now sits for 97 days, a meaningful shift in market time. At the same time, 25.4% of homes still closed above asking and 22.0% went off the market within two weeks, which tells buyers that correctly priced, move-in-ready homes still draw quick, competitive offers. The average sale-to-list ratio of 100.17% confirms most sellers are capturing close to their asking figure.

    For a buyer, the practical read is to move fast on fresh, well-priced inventory but negotiate firmly on anything that has lingered past the median or already cut its price. For a seller, the 30.7% reduction rate is a warning against overpricing at launch; the homes selling above list are the ones anchored to recent comparable sales, not aspirational numbers. With 339 licensed agents active in the area, distinguishing an agent who prices to the current data from one who simply lists high is where measurable value begins.

    Understanding the true cost of homeownership in Maize goes beyond the listing price. These calculators break down what today's market conditions mean for your budget, your timeline, and your negotiating position.

    What this shift means: Compared with a year ago, prices moved +10.1% while the sale-to-list ratio shifted +0.05% and time on market registered a +45 days change. Taken together, that means sellers are still realizing strong pricing but need patience, while buyers gain more room to evaluate and negotiate on listings that do not sell in the first two weeks.

    What to Look for in a Maize Realtor

    Choosing an agent on name recognition alone overlooks what actually moves a transaction: pricing accuracy, negotiation results, and consistency across deals. In Maize, EffectiveAgents has ranked 31 agents out of 339 licensed professionals by analyzing verified transaction history rather than advertising spend. The top-ranked agent, Kari Higgins at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty, has recorded 596 transactions and $18.2M in all-time sales volume across the 67101 area. That transaction depth matters in a market where 25.4% of homes sell above list yet 30.7% require a price cut, because negotiation leverage swings sharply between those two groups. An agent who has closed hundreds of deals reads which listings will draw multiple offers and which need a sharper entry price, then structures terms accordingly. When reviewing candidates, weigh review patterns as well as volume: a smaller review count paired with high transaction totals, as seen here, reflects a producer whose record is built on repeat and referral business more than online marketing. Verify both the deal history and the client feedback before you commit.

    How We Rank Maize Real Estate Agents

    Our rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data, not advertising spend. For every agent we analyze more than fifteen performance signals, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results (how far above or below list price an agent's clients actually close), price-point fit, and verified reviews. The agents shown first are those whose verified results put them at the top of the Maize market today.

    Agents cannot pay for placement in these rankings. The underlying data refreshes as new closed transactions are reported, so rankings shift with real market performance. Learn how we rank agents.

    Maize Real Estate Agent FAQs

    Who is the best real estate agent in Maize, KS?

    The top-ranked agent in Maize, KS by EffectiveAgents methodology is Kari Higgins at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices PenFed Realty, with 596 verified transactions and $18.2M in all-time sales volume. EffectiveAgents ranks 31 of the area's 339 licensed agents by analyzing measured transaction history, pricing accuracy, and client outcomes rather than advertising. The strongest match depends on your property type and price point, so compare several ranked agents against the specific results they have produced in Maize before deciding.

    How were these Maize real estate agents ranked?

    Rankings are built from verified MLS transaction data. We analyze more than fifteen performance signals for every agent, including sales volume in your city and zip code, recent and all-time transactions, days on market, negotiation results, price-point fit, and verified reviews. Agents cannot pay for placement.

    How many real estate agents are in Maize?

    Our data covers 339 real estate agents serving the Maize area. The count represents agents with transaction activity recorded in our Maize market data, not simply everyone holding a license.

    What does the median sale price in Maize mean for sellers?

    Maize's median sale price is $330,321 as of July 2026. Half of recent sales closed above that figure and half below. It is a useful baseline for understanding the market, but an experienced local agent will price your home against comparable recent sales in your neighborhood, not the citywide median.

    How long does it take to sell a house in Maize?

    In Maize, the median home sells in about 97 days, and that timeline reflects a +45 days change in market time versus a year ago. Your actual pace depends on pricing, condition, and location: with 22.0% of homes going off the market within two weeks, correctly priced and move-in-ready listings still move quickly, while overpriced homes often join the 30.7% of listings that require a reduction. Pricing to recent comparable sales from the start is the single biggest factor in shortening time to close.

    Does it cost anything to use EffectiveAgents?

    No. EffectiveAgents is free for home buyers and sellers, with no obligation to work with any agent we match you with.

    Do agents pay to be ranked or featured?

    No. Agents cannot pay for placement anywhere in these rankings. Positions are earned from verified transaction performance only.

    What commission do Maize realtors charge?

    Commissions are negotiable and vary by agent, service level, and transaction. There is no set rate, and recent industry changes have made commission structures more flexible than ever. Discuss the structure directly with your agent before signing a listing or buyer agreement.

    Should I use a local Maize agent or a national brand?

    The individual agent matters more than the brand on the sign. Offices within the same national franchise vary widely in performance, and the agent you hire, not the logo, prices your home, negotiates your contract, and manages your closing. A strong local agent brings firsthand knowledge of Maize neighborhoods, pricing patterns, and buyer activity. Compare agents on verified local results such as recent sales, days on market, and negotiation outcomes rather than name recognition.

    What questions should I ask a Maize realtor before hiring them?

    Ask how many homes they have closed in Maize in the past year, what their average sale-to-list ratio is, and how much of their business is in your neighborhood and price range. Ask how they will market your home or find you listings, and how often they will communicate. Strong agents answer with specifics. Verified transaction data is the fastest way to confirm what you hear.
