Bothell Housing Market Update
April 2026

Quick Take

It really is interesting what a month can do.

Last month is exactly why I break the market down this way because you needed that extra context to understand what was actually happening.

This month, you really don’t.

The whole city lines up pretty clean with what we’re seeing across housing types and resale price points.

The only two things that stood out to me were that new construction didn’t outperform resale like it has been for the past few months, and you can no longer find a true single family resale under 599K in Bothell.

Whole City

Honestly, March was a really solid month for Bothell overall.

At a glance, everything looks pretty healthy. Homes are still moving quickly, sellers are still getting very close to their asking price, and buyers are clearly still active.

So what this really tells us is that buyers are still engaging and moving forward, and sellers are getting what they wanted and not waiting to long before they get it. When something feels right, it still moves quickly.

New Construction

This was the one area that stood out this month to me.

New construction has been outperforming resale for a while now, so it was a bit surprising to see the days on market stretch out here.

That said, builders are still getting homes under contract within about a month on average, so it is not like things have stalled out.

What it feels like right now is buyers are taking a little more time when it comes to new construction. They are walking more communities, comparing options, and not feeling the same urgency we were seeing before.

Homes are still selling and prices are holding, it just is not quite as fast-paced as it has been.

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

Townhomes

Townhomes are still moving at a pretty steady pace.

The timeline here is relatively quick, and the balance between what is available and what is going under contract feels pretty even.

This tends to be a very price-sensitive range, so when something is well-positioned, buyers are stepping in without much hesitation. These stats include both Resale and New Construction so if you are selling a resale you might notice that your days on market are a bit higher.

Condos

Condos are in a very similar spot.

They are moving consistently, not sitting around for long, and still closing very close to asking price.

If a unit checks the boxes, it moves. If not, it sits until it adjusts.

HOA budgets, dues, and long term stability are being reviewed carefully as buyers should.

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

Curious what your home could sell for right now? Thinking about buying but not sure where to start?

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 Resale

This is the one price range that looks off at first glance, but there is a very specific reason for it.

Days on market jumped from 6 just last month to 47, but there was only one sale in this range again like last month, and it was a manufactured home that sat on the market for quite a while.

So this is not a shift in demand, it is just a lack of data and one outlier pulling everything.

Also, what is currently active and pending in this range is mostly manufactured homes and a couple of townhomes. There really are not any true detached single-family homes here right now.

Because of that, this range is not giving a clear picture of the typical Bothell buyer experience, and I will likely adjust this price point moving forward.

600K to 749K Resale

What a difference a month can make.

In my last report, this was the slowest moving range in the entire city. Now it is one of the most active based on the 9 homes that sold last month.

When something is priced right and shows well, it is getting picked up quickly.

This shifted from buyers taking their time and comparing everything to buyers acting when the right home hits the market.

This is now one of the more decisive price points in Bothell, and it is interesting to see how quickly that changed.

750K to 949K Resale

This range is still moving fast, just like my last report.

There are plenty of options for buyers, but with 26 homes available and homes going in just over a week, buyers are clearly out and active.

This is a range where you are seeing steady movement without things feeling rushed.

950K to 1.149M Resale

This is a similar story to the rest of the city.

In my last report, I called this the belle of the ball, and while it is not quite as aggressive as it felt in February, it is still a very active price range.

It is competitive, and homes are moving when they line up with buyer expectations and don’t leave room for hesitation.

1.150M and Up

This price point continues to hold up really well and has the most inventory for resale properties.

Even with more homes sitting, the ones that are priced right and show well are still moving quickly.

This is a good example of how the market is behaving overall right now.

When a home aligns with expectations, it moves. When it misses the mark, it sits.

Take a look at your competition. Buyers already are.

Bothell Washington residential resale 1.150M plus April 2026 showing 65 homes for sale, 25 under contract, 22 sold homes, 6 median days on market, 99.8 percent of original list price, and 9 median showings to pending

Bothell Real Estate Questions – April 2026

It depends on where you’re looking, but overall buyers are in a more comfortable position than they’ve been.

Across most price points, homes are still moving, but not instantly. That gives you time to look at multiple homes, compare options, and make a decision without feeling rushed.

That said, in Resale ranges like 600K to 749K, when the right home shows up, it still goes quickly. So you have breathing room, just not unlimited time.

Yes, if you’re realistic about how your home compares to others.

Homes are still selling very close to asking price across the board. That hasn’t changed. But buyers are paying attention.

If your home is priced right and shows well, it will move. If it doesn’t, it will sit. There’s enough inventory now for buyers to skip over anything that feels off.

It really comes down to how the home lines up with buyer expectations.

You can see it clearly in the data. Most price points are moving in about a week to two weeks, but there are still homes sitting longer.

Buyers are not just buying anything. They are comparing everything. So condition, pricing, layout, and even small details are making a big difference right now.

Not really.

At this point, that price point is mostly manufactured homes, modular homes, and some townhomes.

There really aren’t true detached single family homes showing up here anymore.

Right now, it’s the 750K to 949K range for resale.

You’ve got a good amount of inventory, strong pending activity, and homes moving in just over a week.

This is a range where buyers are very active, but also very clear on what they want. When a home checks the boxes, it doesn’t sit.

It’s one of the strongest and most consistent price points in the Bothell market right now.
