Pending sales, which are homes under contract but the sale has not yet closed, jumped nearly 21% from a year ago! In fact, home sales are the highest they have been since August 2007. Inventory dropped more than 18% year over year, according to new figures from Northwest Multiple Listing Service.

 

Excluding condos, two sub-areas of King County notched gains of more than 40% for pending sales of single family homes – Southeast King County (up 40.4%) and the Eastside (up 42.5%).

 

We have been busy as well…we sold 9 homes this month alone! We are now accepting listings and we enjoy working with buyers. Please let us know if you hear of anyone who is thinking about buying or selling; we appreciate your referrals.
