Small-town charm, a great community, and a location that keeps you close to everything the KC area has to offer!
🍂 And here’s something to think about… NOW might be a great time to make your move!

Beginning November 2, 2026, new appraisal reporting standards from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are creating a more consistent way to document and compare properties.
Key updates include:
✅ More detailed reporting of finished and unfinished living space
✅ Standardized home condition ratings
✅ A single appraisal form for all property types
What does this mean for homeowners? The new forms don't automatically increase or decrease a home's value. Instead, they provide a more uniform way for appraisers to analyze and report property information.
💡 One important tip: Keep detailed records of home improvements, including receipts, permits, costs, and completion dates. Good documentation can help support your home's value during the appraisal process.
