Notice the contrast in year over year vs. the exaggerated difference in the difference from the peak we saw in 2022. The biggest local market to take notice of is Redmond, which saw a large drop off in price over the last couple months. This can be better seen in the market snapshot section at the very bottom of this letter.





Mortgage rates have corrected quickly and prices have adjusted accordingly. Once the rates stay consistent, we should see a settling in prices and the market will be more consistent. Historically speaking, average mortgage rates are 6-8%. Our dramatic shift is not so much due to the rate amount, but the speed in which rates changed and the low supply we saw during covid that increased prices.
