Are we seeing the first signs of a market shift?

Lead-In:

We kicked off the year with solid momentum in King and Snohomish Counties—strong sales and steady price appreciation despite low inventory. But April delivered a surprising twist: pending sales dipped compared to last year, even with a 40% increase in available homes. Prices have held steady so far, but could that change?

Market Snapshot:

Current pricing remains firm, and we expect short-term stability. However, if buyers stay cautious and inventory continues rising, prices could soften. We’re watching closely.

Bottom Line:

The market feels like it’s at a crossroads—not surging, not sinking, but shifting. Was April just a seasonal breather or an early sign of buyer hesitation? The coming weeks will be telling.
