The real estate statistics below reflect the real estate activity in The Kirkland Highlands for the past week and all data is taken from the NWMLS through Thursday morning each week.

The map shows most of the outline of Kirkland’s Highlands neighborhood. The map address is simply for a street corner in the middle of the Kirkland Highlands. For those not familiar with the neighborhood, it’s a pocket of unique homes close to downtown Kirkland. In some ways it feels like an island, because it’s separated on the east by 405, the south by Central Way (the main route to downtown) and the west and north by the BNSF railroad tracks. The neighborhood has the best of both worlds, a little isolation without any through traffic, but just seconds from everything.

As I mentioned last week, we’re starting to see more homes priced below $350,00o in The Kirkland Highlands.  This week there are three homes in this price range. Look for home prices to fall in this range as the year progresses.  On the eastside, sales numbers are creeping up for the homes priced below $500,000.  In fact, more homes sold in February for  under $500,000 than we’ve seen in years.

I anticipate more homes coming up on the market as spring is the time most home owners think about moving.  If you decide to make a move, make sure you plan accordingly and are ready to go on the market only when your home is in top-notch condition.
