Kirkland Real Estate Sales Through June 11

The number of Kirkland real estate sales has dropped from the high of 79 sales in April.  In June, 57 homes sold, which meant 20% or 1 in 5 homes  got offers.  Homes are selling, but it’s clear that with so many homes not selling, it’s only the best homes that are selling.  As I say every month, the home that is the best value against the competition is the one that wins the buyer.

As a reminder, national real estate statistics are exactly that.  They’re general statistics which give an overview of real estate in the country. An accurate measure of the market in Kirkland is to look at what’s happening in Kirkland.  The Seattle real estate market and even the Redmond real estate market, are not necessarily the same.  So looking at California or Spokane, as an example, doesn’t fit our local Kirkland market.

In June the median price of Kirkland homes dropped from $624,950 to  $535,000.

Since “one size real estate” does not fit all, it’s important to look at local real estate statistics.  Even in the Seattle area, there are vast differences among the various locales.
