Key Market Indicators – December Recap 2020
Seattle Housing Update - Resale Only
The unique housing market in 2020 continues into 2021, with surge-level sales activity intensity for each new resale listing, fueled by low interest rates and a huge backlog of buyers. Now that the holiday season is complete, Seattle will see a power surge of home buyers enter the market in 2021. Although there were more active listings in Dec. 2020 versus Dec. 2019, there is a severe shortage of inventory in the $500,000 to $1 million range.
The Seattle market is virtually sold out up to $1.5 million, and sales activity intensity is predominantly surge in that price range. In the luxury price range above $1.5 million, sales activity intensity is healthy.
