Spring is historically the most popular time for buyers to look for a new home. This year is no exception.

More than just this, we've also trended towards the lowest mortgage rates in the last few years, which gives buyers even more reason to be looking around. As KCM states, "More buyers + improving affordability = more eyes on your house." Making sure you are listed going into spring helps make sure you take advantage of this new coming demand.

This demand brings a higher chance of competing offers and a quicker home sale. With buzz like this, now is the time to list before...

We've seen within our Thurston County Market Stats that inventory has made huge strides toward what was observed before the pandemic and lowered interest rates hit our market. This happens to be the case on a national scale.

This change is positive and will cause the competitive nature of the market to shift. More homes available on the market gives buyers time, options, and leverage. Not long ago, the small number of homes on the market created a lot of pressure and was intimidating for buyers. Fortunately, end of 2025, "almost half of the largest 200 metro areas were back at...

Sellers still remember the time not long ago when pricing was more lenient in catching a buyer's attention. We are no longer in that kind of market.

Homes are sitting longer before finding a buyer and asking prices have plateaued for nearly three years not with the only fluctuation being caused by the seasons. Historically, we have seen asking prices on a steady rise, but now sellers must adapt to the new trends if they want to stay competitive.

For a variety of factors, buyers are more price sensitive within this market. A quote from Keeping Current Matters states,...

Rent may be less money out of your pocket in the short term, but it doesn't help you build a financial future.

When you pay rent, your money goes to the landlord, building their financial future.

A mortgage payment is an investment into homeownership that builds your net worth and pays off in the long term. Rent, like everything else, will always increase over time. But a fixed mortgage locks in your monthly housing budget. And, when you make that mortgage payment, yes you are paying some interest, but you are also paying yourself. When you look at the math of homeownership,...
