The median home in the city of Mission was built in 1972, older than the U.S. median of 1980 and older than the Kansas median of 1976. That is older than the Johnson County median of 1989.1 Older housing stock means a contractor's first job is finding what is behind the finish - wiring, plumbing and roof decking - before a price is final. Somewhat more of Mission's housing predates 1980 than the national share: 62% against 50%, with 7% built since 2010. The largest single share, 32%, dates from 1940-1959. That makes it a newer stock than Johnson County as a whole (36% built before 1980).1 On houses from the 1940s and 1950s, contractors routinely check for original cast-iron drains, two-wire electrical and undersized panels before pricing a remodel.

Owner-occupied homes in Mission are older than rentals: a median build year of 1957 against 1984.1 Where owner-occupied homes skew older, a repair-versus-replace conversation is the usual starting point rather than a like-for-like swap. Mission has a mixed housing stock: 46% detached houses, 4% attached or townhouse units and 44% in buildings of five or more units.1 Owners and renters are roughly balanced in Mission, with 45% of occupied homes owner-occupied, below the Kansas share of 67%.1

The median owner-occupied home in Mission is valued at $289,100 (ACS), above the Kansas median of $217,200. Within Johnson County the median is $391,200, so Mission sits below it.1 Home values above the state median tend to support fuller scopes; the written scope should still separate must-do from nice-to-have. The Kansas City Downtown Ap station averages 93 nights a year at or below 32°F and 31 at or below 20°F.2,3 A real freeze season means masonry, roofing and exterior sealing are specified for freeze-thaw cycles.

Summers bring about 47 days a year at or above 90°F.2,3 Annual precipitation is about 38 inches, with 11 days a year bringing an inch or more.2,3 Heating dominates the year: about 4,613 heating degree days against 1,708 cooling degree days (base 65°F).2,3 In a heating-led climate, insulation and air sealing carry most of the energy-code weight for any work that opens the envelope.

Mission sits in IECC climate zone 4A (Mixed-Humid).4 Building permits in Mission are normally issued by the city building department.5,6
