Surprise, surprise...we have seen a BIG increase of homes still on the market as we went up to 3.4 months of inventory where last month (Dec 2025) we were at only 2 months of inventory. Yes homes are staying on the market longer, we are seeing home mortage interest rates BELOW 6% 30 year fixed and we are still seeing some homes selling in less than a week. 

New listings and sales dipped in December as we are again are seeing 2 months or less in inventory of homes and codominiums. With the possibilty of lower interest rates we could see a very busy and robust Spring market for both buyers and sellers

Interesting trend of home/condos going on the market as we saw a decline of almost 50% from the month of October 2025 in November ,in all counties. December appears to be trending the same way with fewer homes going on the market than November 2025. Hopefully the new year will being us a more stable real estate market with lower interest rates

Market has slowed down, inventory has gone down as well. With lower interest rates and eager sellers this is a good time to put buying a home on your Christmas wish list!

Homes and condominiums (New and Resale) For sale, Pending, and Sold for September 2025 in King, Snohomish, and Pierce Counties in Washington. As you will hear in my Podcast, YES homes are selling and YES inventory has climbed a little - Lots of buying and selling opportunities . Let's chat and see how we can find a success path to buying or selling a home.

Yes, interest rates have gone down with some rate being just under 6% 30 year fixed rate and with that we are seeing more buyers in the market and some homes selling in less than a week. Yes, we are alos seeing a msall uptcik of homes on the market but still right around 2 months of inventory. 

The latest real estate activity for homes and condominiums from NWMLS for the month of July 2025. Yes inventory has increased, a little, in all counties however we are still seeing many sales. With more buyer choices available it is a better time to buy then a year ago. As a seller, it is suggested that you get your home ready and priced correctly as if you do not your home may sit idle for a few months before it is sold.

Yes, inventory has increased but just a little as homes continue to sell, with some selling in less than a week and some taking longer. Summer months typically are slower so we will be watching how the market trends thru July and August. Make it a GREAT summer!

As I have mentioned before, the real estate inventory is creeping up yet it is still way below a "normal" inventory market. To be considered a normal and stabilized market for both buyers and sellers we would need to have 4 to 8 months of inventory. In also included my thoughts on buyers trying to renegotiate their buyer broker services agreement with their Realtor/real estate agent on the day of making a formal offer on a home.

We are seeing more homes come on the market and with those for sale we are seeing homes selling, some selling for over their asking prices!
