Interest rates continue to significantly impact the overall affordability of real estate in Seattle. As rates continue to soar, it is only natural for days on market and inventory levels to increase while closed sales prices decrease from the spring time highs. The closed sales price for a single family home in Seattle in June 2022 was $1,063,000 meaning that prices have decreased around 10% in just three months. Despite this significant slump, in Seattle the average price of a house is still 6.1% higher than 12 months ago. 

 

I expect the closed sales price to be lower again next month when considering that since the middle of August interest rates increased from 5.22% to 6.6% while the S&P 500 is down around 10%.
