Real estate market shifts - you're going to want to hear this.
Picture this: you open your favorite home search app and, for the first time in years, you’re scrolling… and scrolling. There are actually more choices. Washington just added over 4,300 homes compared to last year — a 27% jump in supply.
And prices? They’ve finally blinked.
The statewide median, once at $635,000, now sits at $630,700 — even slipping about 3% since August.
What does that mean if you’ve been thinking about selling?
- Buyers suddenly have more breathing room — and they’re still buying. Closed sales are actually up nearly 6% year over year.
- More homes means you need a strategy to stand out — but it also means your next move could be easier to find and negotiate.
Here’s a question worth asking: if the market is shifting quietly right now, and you know more homes are coming in spring, would it be smarter to get ahead of that wave and launch with fresh marketing and sharp pricing before the competition spikes again?
If you’ve been on pause, this could be your signal to act while the numbers still work in your favor.
đ Here’s what to do next: call or text and I’ll build you a custom Market Relaunch Plan:
- Current value of your home in today’s market
- What’s selling nearby and how fast
- A launch strategy to position your home to stand out in this new environment
Don’t wait for the spring surge to flood the market. Quiet shifts like this are what savvy sellers use to get ahead.
