Seattle’s summer slump may be pointing to something bigger. New listings are up 15% year over year, sales are down 13%, and absorption is near 3.6 months, so we could be nearing the first true buyer’s market since 2011.

This isn’t 2011, though. Most homeowners have strong equity, and short sales and foreclosures aren’t driving the market. With inventory at a 15-year high, it’s a great time to trade up. Thinking about a move? Let’s run the numbers together.

The Eastside’s summer slump is a sign of things to come. New listings are up 31% year over year, sales are down 9%, and absorption is over 4 months, making this the first true buyer’s market since 2011.

Even so, 36% of homes still sold above list price, so pricing it right still pays off. Most homeowners also have strong equity, which makes this nothing like 2011. With inventory at a 15-year high, it’s a great time to trade up. Thinking about a move? Let’s run the numbers together.

The big change that we're seeing right now is buyers have far more to choose from. Inventory is at a decade high, prices have adjusted, and buyers finally have real negotiating power, but the most compelling homes are still selling fast. Strategy, not the market, determines your outcome this fall.

The Eastside is making more adjustments than Seattle, in part because it also made the biggest and steepest gains in the last few years. While there are more homes on the market in the eastside than we've seen in a while, those that are highly desirable (by price, good condition and location) are still seeing competition.

Seattle pricing has dipped a VERY slight amount(1%) despite a massive increase in inventory(40%) which describes the market change Seattle is seeing as normalizing. Well priced homes are selling fast, and buyers are still showing up, and, despite a little slowing, Seattle is still in a sellers market.

The eastside is sitting on around 4 months of active inventory, jumping into a true balanced market. This is pretty much the first time we've seen this since 2012 when the housing market had finally climbed its way out of the great recession. BUT, The market hasn't stopped. The competitive balance has changed. Buyers are able to be pickier, and with that pricing increases have slowed compared to the frenetic pace they had been growing at (tripling values since 2012).
