Washington real estate — week of Jun 5, 2026

Strength 4 / 5

15 days

Lacey homes taking 15 days to sell — +66.7% vs. a year ago

Homes are sitting materially longer than they were this time last year — the first hard sign of softening demand or over-priced inventory.

Strength 4 / 5

$485K

Richland avg sale price fell back under $500K — now $485K

Dropping back below $500K re-opens a buyer pool that had been priced out — and puts sellers on notice that the last few months' comps are no longer defensible.

Strength 4 / 5

$600K

Bellingham median price -9.2% YoY

Price-per-sqft also -12.4% YoY, confirming real depreciation vs. mix-shift noise.

Strength 4 / 5

45 days

Ferndale homes taking 45 days to sell — +350.0% vs. a year ago

Homes are sitting materially longer than they were this time last year — the first hard sign of softening demand or over-priced inventory.

Strength 4 / 5

$534K

Lacey avg sale price crossed $500K — now $534K

Crossing $500K is a narrative hinge — buyer shopping-by-price bands and seller list-price anchoring both reset when a market moves past a round number.

Strength 4 / 5

$578K

Ferndale median price -8.9% YoY

Price-per-sqft also -9.7% YoY, confirming real depreciation vs. mix-shift noise.
