Book a free consultationWhy $4,895Johnston is a northwest Des Moines suburb with a 2020 Census population of 24,064. It has grown quickly over the last two decades and still draws families who want Johnston Community School District, newer construction and access to Merle Hay Road, I-35/80 and the Saylorville corridor. Camp Dodge anchors part of the city’s identity on the north side; parks, trails and neighborhood associations fill out the residential map.
Housing character is not one-note. Long-established pockets such as Green Meadows and Greenwood Hills sit alongside later subdivisions, golf-course-adjacent development near Hyperion, and large-lot living farther toward the lake. City neighborhood associations list places such as Green Meadows, Rittgers Oaks at Hyperion, Ashton Pointe and others; buyers often search by elementary feeder and by how close a home sits to Beaver Creek greenways or NW 86th. When you sell, the right comps and the right photo set depend on which of those pockets you are in.
Johnston Community School District covers the city and also serves students from parts of Urbandale, Des Moines, Grimes and Granger, plus open-enrolled families. The district reports thousands of students across its campuses and is one of the larger districts in Iowa. For sellers, district reputation is often part of the buyer conversation, but assignment is still address-specific. We confirm the attendance area before launch so the listing remarks stay accurate.
RAW’s listing fee is $4,895 + brokerage fees for full-service representation from launch to close. Applicable brokerage fees, including a brokerage transaction fee, are added. Buyer’s-agent compensation is negotiated separately and is not included in any fee shown.
What that covers: professional pricing and marketing strategy; prep punch list and staging plan; professional home photography; MLS listing (DMAAR) and syndication to popular home-search sites; yard sign; Realtor® lockbox access for showings; showing feedback requested automatically after every showing; weekly Monday seller report (showings, feedback and market updates); price-review triggers agreed at launch plus a 30-day review; open houses when they fit your home; professional negotiation advice; and coordinated closing and abstracting. No upfront fees. Listed with LPT Realty, LLC.
