Everett Washington Housing Market Update

April 2026

Quick Take:

And just like that, Everett is splitting into completely different markets depending on price point.

We saw:

Homes under 750K moving fast with very little time to think
The 750K to 949K range flip from slow to extremely competitive almost overnight
Higher price points with low inventory just went from taking about 3 months to sell to a little over a week.
Condos stacking up and creating more negotiating room
New construction getting attention but not converting to closed sales at the same pace

Context matters this month. A lot.

If you’re buying or selling, your experience completely depends on where you sit.

Let’s walk through each housing type and then break down residential resale by price range.

Whole City Overview

The Everett market looks strong right now because the homes that are selling are moving quickly and holding their value.

On paper, that shows up as fast timelines and homes selling right at list price.

But that strength is largely coming from one new construction sale and residential resale under 949K, which is pulling the overall city numbers up.

So yes, the market looks strong at a glance, but it is not evenly strong across the board.

New Construction

New construction is pretty uneven right now in Everett.

There is a good amount of inventory, but only one home actually sold last month, which tells you a lot about what’s really happening.

What’s interesting is that the one that did sell went over list price, which you don’t see very often with new construction. It was a corner unit townhouse near Pinehurst Beverly Park, went under contract stupid fast, and stood out compared to everything else sitting.

Remember, most builders pay for your buyer’s agent. Bring one with you on your first visit. If you don’t have one yet… call me 😉

Condos

Condos are where inventory is stacking up the most.

Buyers have options, and they know it. That is creating a slower pace and more negotiation.

If you are selling a condo right now, you are competing directly with multiple similar options.

If you are buying, you have room to compare, negotiate, and take your time.

If you’re buying a condo, due diligence matters. Review HOA financials. Look at maintenance history. Make sure you understand the risk of special assessments before you close.

If you’re selling, pricing correctly still brings strong attention.

Townhomes

Townhomes are sitting in a middle ground.

They are still moving, just not as quickly as last month when things were flying off the market in about 6 days.

If you’re buying, you still need to be ready. Most are going pending in under 2 weeks. You have a little time, but not much, especially if it’s in a prime spot within the community.

If you’re selling and you’re in a good location within the complex, you’re in a strong position right now. Those units are standing out.

If you’re currently on the market and not getting traction, it’s worth looking closer at what’s happening inside your specific complex. That matters more here than the city as a whole. Have your agent pull that data, or reach out and I can break it down for you.

Wondering how this applies to your home or your price range?

Every situation is different. I’ll tailor this to your goals, timing, and what you’re trying to figure out.

Residential Resale by Price Point

Under 599K

This range is still one of the most active parts of the market.

Buyers here are showing up and writing offers, but they are not rushing blindly. They are looking at multiple options and making decisions quickly once something feels right.

Homes that hit the market in good condition are moving fast. If something sits here, it usually comes down to condition or pricing.

600K to 749K

This is still one of the strongest moving ranges right now, Just like last month's report.

Buyers here are decisive. They know what they want and they are acting quickly when they find it.

Homes are not lingering. Showings are efficient and offers are coming in without a lot of back and forth.

750K to 949K

What a difference a month can make.

This range went from sitting around 74 days back in January to just 4 days now based on 20 sales. Last month we were at 17 days, so this has picked up fast.

This range is very active right now. Buyers do not have time to sit and think.

That said, you are still seeing a split. Some homes are selling immediately, while others are sitting depending on presentation and price.

If you’re a seller and you’re not one of the ones moving quickly, it’s time to take an honest look at your property. The market is clearly rewarding the homes that are dialed in.

950K to 1.149M

This is where things start to slow down, but not in a bad way.

This range is actually seeing some of the longer timelines right now, second only to condos, which tells you buyers are taking a bit more time here before making a decision.

Sellers went from having around 34 buyers walking through their homes to about 5 before going under contract. Honestly, that’s a big shift, and for a lot of sellers, a welcome one.

There is not a lot of inventory here, and everything feels really balanced right now. You are seeing a lot of fives across the board with active, pending, sold, and even the number of buyers touring before a home goes under contract.

Buyers in this range are being very decisive. They are not touring everything, but when they do find the right home, they are moving forward.

1.150M and Up

Inventory is very low, especially for everything above this price point. There are only a handful of options available, and that is creating pressure.

What really stands out is how quickly things shifted. This range went from sitting around 71 days last month to just 9 days now.

That kind of change tells you buyers are there, just waiting for the right opportunity.

Sellers are not seeing a ton of traffic per listing, so when a serious buyer comes through, there is a higher chance they are taking that first strong offer instead of waiting it out.

What This Means for Everett Buyers and Sellers

This is not a market you need to time.

It is a market you need to understand.

Some parts are moving fast. Some are slowing down. Most of the frustration people feel right now comes from assuming the entire market behaves the same.

It doesn’t.

And once you understand where your price point sits, everything starts to make a lot more sense.

Your strategy should match your price range and property type.

This is exactly why I publish these reports monthly. When you zoom out, the market looks simple. When you zoom in, you see where buyers are actually showing up and where sellers need to adjust.

You do not need to time the market. You need to understand it.
