This information looks at the Active Listings versus Pending Sales for residential home for the week leading up to February 10th, 2013.

North Seattle had the largest percent of homes go under contract with 33% for the week. Last year in North Seattle, that percentage was 12%. There were 343 homes listed last year compared to last week with 184 homes. Kirkland had 24% of the homes go under contract last week and last year at this time it was only 11%.

Bellevue Washington Has A Strong Week in Pending Sales, Presented by John Fiala

This chart looks at the active listings and pending sales for the date from 10/15/12 to 10/21/12. The pending sales (under contract) are for the previous seven days.  This shows where the market is hot and who can have an advantage in the market by location and price point, essentially where the fish are biting in real estate.

If you have “Bellevue” in your address, your area had the highest percentage of homes go under contract for the week at 17%. Normally that title goes to North Seattle. Notice in Bellevue the price range from $250,000 to $349,999. There were five homes in each price range at the start of the week and by the end of the week, four of them were under contract with only one still Active. If you are a seller in that price range, the fish are biting. Buyers, you have competition in that price range in Bellevue.

Pending homes sales for Seattle and the Eastside areas for the week of 7-22-12

Here is a look at the weekly ratios ending on July 22, 2012 for residential homes in five areas. This information looks at what has gone Pending (under contact) over the last seven days. Of the five areas that I track, North Seattle had the highest percentage of homes go under contract with 21%. In Redmond, only 8% of homes went under contract. The hot price ranges for Sellers are in the red and yellow boxes below. You can see that in Kirkland, there are currently two homes active in the price range of $250,000 to $299,999 with 5 homes going under contract last week. You can look at your competition by price range and by your area to help you make an educated decision about listing your home or coming up with a strategy to buy a place. How does your area look?
