Eastside Housing Market Update • Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Issaquah, Sammamish, and other Eastside communities • Resale Only

Here’s your August Eastside real estate breakdown:
• In the $1M–$1.5M price range, we saw 260 resale listings, with 27.9% going pending in the first 30 days — a strong indicator of buyer demand.
• Across the Eastside, 1044 total resale listings hit the market in August, and 560 homes went pending, showing balanced activity between new inventory and buyer absorption.
• As of September 1st, there are 2340 active resale listings across the Eastside — one of the largest active inventories we’ve seen in 2026.
