Everyone expected the war headlines to rattle the housing market.
So far, they haven't.
Home prices across Skagit County are still climbing. Well-priced homes are still attracting buyers. Inventory remains tight in many price ranges, and the market continues to show surprising resilience despite economic uncertainty.
But here's where it gets interesting.
The pressure is building in the homes that aren't selling. Properties that are overpriced, poorly marketed, or don't align with what buyers want are sitting longer and facing more competition.
We're not in a market crash.
We're standing at that critical moment when the market is deciding which direction it wants to go next.
That's exactly why understanding the real numbers matters more than the headlines.
In this month's Skagit County Real Estate Market Update, I break down:
• Current home prices
• Days on market
• Inventory levels
• What buyers and sellers should expect this summer
• The trends I'm seeing on the ground right now
Watch the full update and make decisions based on facts, not fear.

Most buyers don’t lose money because of the market… they lose it from avoidable mistakes. 💸

I’ve seen people leave $10,000+ on the table in places like Bellingham, Mount Vernon, and Anacortes simply because nobody showed them what to watch for.

I’m hosting a free class breaking it all down step-by-step so you can buy smarter and avoid costly surprises.

I've watched first-time buyers in Skagit County, Oak Harbor, and Whidbey Island make every single one of these mistakes. Some cost a few hundred dollars. Some cost tens of thousands. Every single one was completely avoidable.

If you're renting in Mount Vernon, Burlington, Anacortes, or anywhere on Whidbey Island and thinking about buying your first home — swipe through this before you do anything else. These are the five mistakes I see North Puget Sound buyers make over and over, and knowing them ahead of time is the difference between a smooth process and an expensive lesson.

Save this and send it to someone you know who's thinking about buying in this market. It might be the most useful thing they see this week.

And when you're ready to get the full breakdown — every mistake, every Washington State assistance program available to Skagit and Island County buyers right now, and your exact first step — come to my free home buyers class this Thursday night.

One hour. Completely free. Built specifically for first-time buyers in the Skagit Valley, North Puget Sound, and Whidbey Island area.

Your landlord in Mount Vernon, Oak Harbor, or Anacortes has no reason to tell you this. So I will.

The Skagit County and Whidbey Island markets have changed dramatically — but the path to buying your first home here is more accessible than most renters realize. Washington State has some of the best first-time buyer assistance programs in the country and most people have never heard of them.

Swipe through to see the three things that change everything. Save it and send it to someone you know who keeps saying they're not ready yet.

I cover all of this in detail — including every Washington State program available to Skagit and Island County buyers right now — in my free home buyers class every Thursday night. Link in bio to register. Completely free.

Buying a home shouldn’t feel like you’re doing it alone.
Everyone in the transaction gets paid to represent their side… and buyers? You’re left with Zillow, Redfin… and a prayer.
That doesn’t sit right with me.
So I’m breaking it all down in my Homebuyer Blueprint Webinar—how the process really works and how to come out ahead.
