The 2018 Real Estate market has certainly been a little bit of roller coaster ride of late, but the final numbers for December do not reflect a depressed marketplace that the Seattle Times would have people to believe. Every area noted in the report shows that median home prices are up at least 4.3% year over year while many areas have dramatically increased primarily due to new construction and infill building. On average, market times have been relatively stable. We can expect to see them seasonally drop as we move further from the holiday season and the Spring market ramps up demand.
