Across the Puget Sound, buyers had more homes to choose from than in any September since 2014!

King County saw a 31% jump in available home inventory year over year. There were 8,058 homes for sale at the end of September. A year ago it was 6,146. Pending sales fell 17% YOY, and the median sale price held flat at $850,000.

More homes and fewer accepted offers means buyers actually have time and room to negotiate! You can tour a few homes, compare, and write an offer without feeling rushed into it.

Here is my take. If you have been sitting out waiting for rates to drop, this is the time to at least start looking. When rates do fall, the buyers sitting out with you come back too.

If you plan to buy a home in King County in the next 6 to 12 months, send me a message and I will walk you through what is happening in the neighborhoods you are watching!

Fannie Mae just raised its 2027 mortgage rate forecast from 6.7% to 7.5%, matching today's interest rates.

Interestingly, Fannie Mae's October forecast from this week has the 30 year fixed at 7.5% in every quarter of 2027. This implies they are forecasting rates to stabilize at 7.5%, with no significant rate movement for the next 14 months. If true home prices will flatline or see a modest gain in 2027.

Buying a home has gotten more expensive since June despite lower buyer demand and widespread price reductions. In payment terms, a $750,000 loan at 7.5% instead of 6.7% costs about $405 more a month in principal and interest, before taxes and insurance. This means the average Seattle home will cost nearly $5k more per year, all things remaining equal.

Here is my take. If you are waiting for rates to fall before you sell, don't count on it. Sellers will need adjust expectations and price to what buyers can afford today.

If you are contemplating a move in the next 12 to 18 months, message me your address and I will send you a free value estimate.

Most sellers don't realize that a buyer's monthly payment is dictating the offers they submit. Especially today!

In September, ~20% of U.S. listings had a price cut. Inventory was up 5.4%, and homes under contract fell 4.1% (Realtor Monthly Housing Trends Report).

Rates have changed a lot. The 30 year fixed hovered at 7.40% in the week of October 8, versus a June average of 6.49% (Freddie Mac via FRED). On a $600,000 loan, that is about $4,154 a month in principal and interest instead of $3,788. About $366 more, before taxes and insurance.

A buyer feels that every month, so a price based on last spring's sales gets fewer showings. Then price cuts come later, after the best weeks of marketing time have gone.

The market is adjusting, seller's need to price their homes according to today's prices if they want to get to the closing table. If you are planning on selling in Seattle within the next 12-18 months, message me and I will walk you through what's happening in the market today!

We bought a fixer upper! 🏡

A bit ago, I stopped by an estate sale where the owners of this home were selling the items left behind by their deceased relative. After chatting up the owners, I learned that they were planning on selling the home. I had to have it!

In my favorite neighborhood in Seattle, just blocks away from my first home, I couldn’t help but love the Cape Cod charm. It’s going to be a TON of work, but in the end it will all be worth it!!

This will be and I’s first home together and I could not be more excited to start our marriage in this darling Cape Cod.

We’ll be documenting the renovation process so stay tuned :)

It was a long short trip for this amazing young couple!

Lon and Natalie are relocating from Mississippi and needed a home STAT!

In 3 days we toured 14 homes and quickly snatched this one off the market getting it for LIST PRICE in an epic neighborhood!!

I am full of gratitude for their trust in me representing them on this important milestone 😊 I wouldn’t have a job if it weren’t for my wonderful clients.

Cheers 🥂 and welcome to Washington Lon and Natalie!

Truly I am the luckiest man on planet earth 🤠

We’ve been sitting on this for a few weeks just enjoying each other and our engagement with close friends and family. The amount of love and gratitude I feel for this woman on a daily basis is endless and I can’t wait to begin this new chapter with my favorite person in the whole world.

2021… What a blessing!!!

This was the toughest/best year of my life thus far!!

Without a doubt, I owe it all to the amazing people in my life. A huge thanks to my clients, to Hannah, my family, friends and colleagues for trusting in me, supporting me and full-stop providing the massive amount of joy I experience on a day-to-day basis.

They say “if you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life,” and while I don’t believe that (because there are certainly days where it’s WORK) I would not change a thing about my life whatsoever.

A few milestones I am grateful for:

🏠 23 Real Estate Transactions
🏡 Helped my folks sell my childhood home & purchase their forever home
🛠 Tore apart my house & earned an Associates Degree in DIY from YouTube University
📚 Dove deeper into my faith & joined a joyous Church Community
🏋️ Joined a CrossFit gym ()
✈️ Traveled to a few new cities
💒 Celebrated MANY weddings including one my best friends
🤠 Enjoyed loads of quality time with my favorite people
🛻 Bought a work truck!

Thank you 2021 for your challenges and your milestones! I look forward to the new year :)

I’m Grateful!!!

This December has been much busier than I expected! I have nothing but gratitude and thanks for my clients who trust me with the biggest decision of their lives. As you can tell, I LOVE working with first time homebuyers 😊

These last few months I’ve helped young people buy their first investment property, young couples tripling their quality of life and clients closer to retirement find a home they can enjoy all for themselves.

It’s been a wonderful Fall and early Winter and I owe everything to my clients, mentors, family and friends. And God of course 😎

Happy Holidays!!!⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
