2020 3rd Quarter Eastside Real Estate Update

First and foremost, I hope that you and your family are doing well and adapting to this “new normal”. Our prayers certainly go out to those that have lost family members and those that have lost jobs. It has been a long seven months with so many financial and life changes. We will get through this as a community, a nation, and the world.

.

The real estate market across the county is doing well and here on the Eastside we have enjoyed a 10% increase in home prices. Record low inventory of homes for sale coupled with record low mortgage interest rates and an unknown financial climate has left all of us face with a new normal.

.

The volume of sales was down 33% from the production in 2019. The covid-19 virus disrupted the 2nd quarter eastside real estate market. The uncertainty of the virus kept sellers from offering their homes for sale. The low inventory kept prices from falling too much.

.

The 3rd quarter opened up a bit as for the number of homes for sale. However, they were gobbled up almost immediately with a median of 3 days on the market. Multiple offers are the norm in this market. Sellers, as a whole, have been reasonable with list prices as those that over price just sit waiting for a reduction.

.

The current median price on the Eastside is $925,000. The overall decrease in SOLD prices in the 3rd quarter was not caused by falling prices. Across the board, homes are selling for more than list price. It seems to be because the increased volume of homes priced around $750,000 that have been coming on the market allowing those owners to move up or out.

.

I have been recording the quarterly information for several years. It’s been fun and eye opening watching our real estate market. At the end of 2012, the median price was $510,000 and 7% of the homes were price between 1M and 2 million. By the end of 2019, 36% of the homes were priced between 1M and 2 million and the median price was $920,000. That is an 80% increase in home values.
