This spring, the housing market across King County and the greater Seattle area looks different than it has in recent years. Buyers have the inventory and the breathing room to make more deliberate decisions. Sellers who come to market well-priced and well-prepared are still seeing strong interest. In a more balanced environment, the opportunity is real on both sides for those ready to move with the shift.
