Breaking Down the Numbers | Snohomish County, Q4 2024

These data points tell part of the story about the residential housing market in Snohomish County - but there are interesting points behind the figures.

Days on Market have notably decreased from this same time last year. Homes are continuing to sell for very near their list prices. And, sigh, home prices are still creeping upward!

Bottom line: The Snohomish County residential housing market is still very active. Homes are, on average, holding and gaining in value.

Breaking Down the Numbers | Spokane-Area, Q4 2024

Data tells a story, and as you probably know - there is always more than meets the eye.

While median days on market are creeping up - reaching 13 as a median, that is up 18.2% from this same time last year.  While some properties are on the market longer, the average is relatively quick. There is a pretty wide variation of DOM. Ask me about specific neighborhoods or price ranges, the time on market is not the same in all areas in our county.

Homes are selling, on average, pretty much right at list price.

Defying the hopes or predictions of a crash in home values, home prices are holding pretty steady on average.

Bottom line: The Spokane-area housing market is still very active, and homes (on average) are holding their value. Our inventory is still down from pre-pandemic numbers, yet we are seeing some encouraging increases in inventory.

Spokane Market Observations - Q1 2023

In the Spokane market, we are  down year-over-year in number of closed transactions and sold prices.

Yet it is notable, during Q1 of 2023, we saw new listings down 2.4% (not shown on this chart). The market is slower, but we are not suffering as much from highly constricted inventory as Snohomish County for example (stats above).

Snohomish County Market Observations - Q1 2023

There have been some changes comparing Q1 this year to last.

Part of the data story not shown on this summary is that new listings are down 34.2% compared to the first quarter of 2022. That "shortage" trickles through, one of the factors impacting the number of closed transactions.

Snohomish County Market Observations

You know well, we are seeing a bit of shifting in the market in Snohomish County, like the Spokane area. Looking at both sets of stats - you can see that the markets are almost like echoes. And, of course, each neighborhood can vary from another with-in the larger market.

My role with clients is to educate and paint the big picture with data, stories, and solid listening. 

This market shift means different things depending on your role. Are you a buyer? Are you a seller? Let's chat - I'll help you interpret what this market offers you if you considering buying or selling a home.

Spokane Market Observations

Like most of Western Washington, REALTORS working in Spokane and near-by areas are noticing less open house and tour traffic. That seems to result in a lower volume of offers for most appropriately-price homes.

However, buyers still active in the market are qualified, and still making solid offers to purchase listings. Days on market are approaching numbers we haven't seen in the last couple of years! The good news is, our market is trending more toward "balanced," where times are typically between 3 to 6 months. That sounds crazy - right? Our market has been SO CRAZY, FAST the last few years.  

This trend is a wave of relief for home buyers. And, for home sellers, it is causing a bit of tension while we educate everyone on the dynamics of the current market + seasonal trends in residential home sales.

Want more - reach out to me. I'm happy to chat and share data.
