Have you been wondering what happened in 2018 in the Northwest real estate market? Many of us are talking about the old and the new market since we saw a softening in June. That said, home sales are still strong, mortgage rates are still low (although a bit higher than last year), and more homes are hitting the market making for some mobility. Those who didn’t want to sell because they didn’t know where to go, may find more opportunity to downsize or upsize.
