County commissioners discussed marketing and sale logistics for the county‑owned property identified as 405–407 Neochote Street and asked a prospective listing agent to review the building interior and provide a recommended listing strategy and estimated net proceeds.

A local agent (identified in the record as 'Ty') told commissioners she had not yet inspected the building but had reviewed a 2023 appraisal by Ray Toso and several comparable sales. The appraisal noted an approximately 600‑square‑foot apartment in the building that the appraiser did not inspect. The agent said she could list the property on the Heartland MLS to broaden exposure to Kansas and Missouri buyers, and explained the current market practice that listing side commission is negotiated when listing but buyer‑agent commission is included in each offer and therefore negotiable per contract.

Commissioners asked the agent to:
- Inspect the interior and review the 2023 appraisal.
- Prepare a recommended listing price(s), a net‑sheet showing proceeds at different price points, and an estimated marketing plan and term (agent suggested a six‑month listing with the option to withdraw advertising in January–February and relaunch in March).

Nut graf: No formal decision to list or sell was taken; commissioners directed the agent to perform an interior inspection and return with proposed pricing and net proceeds for further discussion at the next meeting.

Ending: The county will review the agent’s recommended listing price and net‑sheet before deciding whether to execute a listing agreement or set a minimum acceptable price. Commissioners emphasized local marketing and timing to attract buyers who may be reallocating funds before year‑end.
