We are staying busy this March managing our three recent listings, organizing and prepping for our upcoming events, and squeezing a little pickleball in when we get the chance.
Market Overview:
The spring real estate market got off to an early start this year, with all four of our local markets seeing a surge in homes selling above list price in February compared to January, pointing to increased buyer activity. More sellers are entering the market, giving buyers a wider selection of homes to choose from. At the same time, prices have remained relatively stable, a sign that these markets are finding their footing and normalizing. And with mortgage rates lower than a year ago, buying a home is becoming a little more attainable for many even without dramatic price changes.

MONTHS OF SUPPLY
Early signs of the spring market are here. Buyer activity picked up across King County last month, driving an increase of multiple-offer situations on well-priced homes. Lower interest rates and more inventory are also giving buyers new opportunities and improved affordability.
