Blog Marta Rodriguez April 9, 2025

The real estate market across King County, the Eastside, and Bainbridge Island continued its upward swing in March. Inventory is rising, buyer activity is climbing, and median home prices remain strong despite some softening on Bainbridge. Whether you're looking to buy or preparing to sell, here’s what you need to know this month.

The Eastside

The Eastside remains a firm seller’s market, with only 1.6 months of supply. Buyer demand is strong—436 homes sold in March, a 45.3% jump from February. We also saw a 57.7% increase in new listings, bringing more options to buyers who’ve been waiting on the sidelines.

  • Homes sold for 101% of asking price, holding steady month-over-month
  • Average cumulative days on market (CDOM): 17 days

  • YoY price appreciation: 6.5%

 

Bainbridge Island

Bainbridge saw a surge in new listings, jumping 133.3% month-over-month, and sales followed suit, up 80% MoM.

  • Median sold price: $1.7M (despite a notable dip MoM, prices are up 32% YoY)
