Seattle Market Update | June 2026 🏡📊

Main Takeaways:
• 📈 Inventory is up just 2% year-over-year and has largely stabilized
• 💰 Median home prices are up 3% from last year
• 📊 Closed sales increased 7%, showing steady buyer demand
• 🔥 36% of homes sold above list price

Current Conditions:
• Well-priced homes are selling quickly and often with competition
• Buyers remain active, though more selective than in previous years
• Overpriced homes are taking longer to sell and often require price reductions

What This Means:
Despite headlines suggesting otherwise, Seattle's market remains relatively stable. Prices and sales are both up year-over-year, inventory growth has leveled off, and motivated buyers continue to compete for desirable homes. Strategy and pricing remain critical for sellers, while buyers still have opportunities to negotiate on homes that linger on the market.

It was a delight helping longtime Newport Hills homeowners achieve their goal of selling for top dollar.

With the right preparation, pricing strategy, and marketing plan, we positioned their home for success and delivered an outstanding result. I'm grateful for the trust my clients place in me and honored to help them move confidently into their next chapter.

Eastside Market Update | June 2026 🏡📊

Main Takeaways:
• 📈 Inventory is at its highest level in over a decade
• 📊 Months of supply increased to 2.9 months, a 10-year high
• 📉 Pending sales are down 2% and closed sales are down 4%
• 💰 Median sale prices have declined 8% year-over-year

Current Conditions:
• Sellers are facing more competition as inventory grows
• Buyers have more choices, more negotiating power, and less urgency
• Well-priced homes are still attracting attention, while overpriced homes are being overlooked
• About 1 in 4 homes is still selling above list price

What This Means:
This isn't a "let's try it" pricing market. Success depends on thoughtful pricing, strong presentation, and expert guidance from day one. Buyers have more leverage, while sellers need a strategic approach to stand out.

Seattle's housing market is proving more resilient than the headlines suggest.

📈 Median home prices are up 3% year-over-year, now sitting at $1,037,500.

🏡 Closed sales increased 7% compared to last year, showing that motivated buyers are still actively purchasing.

⚖️ Inventory has stabilized, with active listings up just 2% from last May, creating a more balanced market than we've seen in recent years.

⏱️ Timing and pricing remain critical: 68% of homes sold within 15 days received essentially full asking price, while homes that lingered on the market often sold for less.

The takeaway? Buyers are still buying, sellers are still achieving strong results, and strategic pricing matters more than ever.

Thinking about buying or selling this summer? Let's talk about what these market trends mean for your specific goals.

📊 Eastside Real Estate Market Update | May 2026

The Eastside market is shifting, and strategy matters more than ever.

Inventory has reached its highest level in the past decade, giving buyers more choices, more time to make decisions, and greater negotiating power. At the same time, sellers are facing increased competition, making proper pricing and preparation essential from day one.

Here are a few key takeaways:

🏡 Active inventory is up 27% from last year
📉 Median home prices are down 8% year-over-year
⏳ Buyers have more opportunities to negotiate than we've seen in recent years
✨ Yet nearly 1 in 4 homes that sell are still selling at or above list price

What does this mean?

For sellers, today's market isn't about "testing" a price. It's about presenting your home beautifully, pricing it strategically, and creating a strong first impression from the moment it hits the market.

For buyers, there are opportunities to find value, negotiate favorable terms, and purchase with less pressure than we've experienced over the past several years.

Markets like this separate experience from luck.

With more than 20 years of helping Eastside buyers and sellers navigate changing market conditions, I've learned that success isn't about timing the market—it's about having the right strategy for the market you're in.

Whether you're thinking about buying, selling, or simply wondering what your home's current value might be, I'd be happy to help you understand your options.

🏡 SOLD! 🎉

I love helping buyers just as much as I love helping sellers. Every home search is unique, and it's always rewarding to guide my clients through the process step by step until we find the right fit.

I'm so excited for my client to call this beautiful Seattle home their own. With its beautifully maintained character, fully fenced yard, and plenty of space for gathering with friends and family, it checked all the right boxes. Plus, being just minutes from Lake Washington makes it the perfect place to enjoy everything a Seattle summer has to offer.

Congratulations to my buyer on this exciting new chapter! 🔑✨

JUST SOLD ✨

This beautiful Newport Hills mid-century modern is officially sold. With its vaulted tongue & groove ceilings, oversized windows, warm architectural details, and inviting indoor-outdoor living spaces, this home had incredible character from the start — it simply needed the right preparation to truly shine.

I believe details matter. From prepping and polishing to strategic presentation and market preparation, I make sure every home is fully ready before it hits the market so buyers can immediately connect with the lifestyle and potential it offers.

Thinking about selling but not sure where to start? Let’s talk about how we can prepare, prime, and position your home to stand out in today’s market.

Last weekend for my birthday we were out and about exploring Seattle at the Amazon Spheres.

From orchids that looked like insects to the incredible greenery tucked into every corner, it felt like stepping into another world right in the middle of the city. Such a fun place to wander through and take it all in together.

One tip — you do need to make a reservation to visit on the weekends, but I highly recommend adding it to your Seattle bucket list!
