Genuinely, dramatically affordable pricing

Ownwell's Valley-County-specific citation placed Ord's median home value at approximately $97,475 (a separate 2023-cited source put it closer to $120,000) -- both dramatically below the roughly $408,776 national median (base record).

A real, disclosed Ownwell cross-county anomaly

This record's own research found a second 'Ord, Nebraska' property-tax listing under Garfield County, with a substantially higher median home value ($344,028) -- this record does NOT use that figure as Ord's primary number since Ord is genuinely and exclusively the Valley County seat, disclosing the anomaly directly rather than silently resolving it (base record).

Modest recent appreciation

Property values were cited as appreciating approximately 5% over the past year -- a modest, real trend disclosed alongside Ord's overall affordability.

Confirm current, address-specific listings directly

Given the real, disclosed cross-source and cross-county anomalies, confirm current listings and recent comparable closed sales directly with a local agent before setting a firm budget.
