Kirkland Detached Single-Family Homes Market Update — October 16, 2026

Friday, October 16, 2026 · Jeremy Minor | Team NSRG

Kirkland's detached-home market continues to offer new options, with 39 newly active listings, 20 pending events and 32 price reductions in the latest NWMLS seven-day view. In the separate monthly Residential data, September's median sale price rebounded from August but remained below a year earlier. For buyers and sellers, that mix makes the details of competing homes especially important.

Seven-Day Kirkland Detached-Home Activity

This snapshot uses NWMLS's 7 Day Market Watch setting, with the exact MLS city field “Kirkland,” King County, and the verified detached-home styles. Attached and zero-lot-line homes are excluded. No price or neighborhood restriction is applied. An MLS city field may differ from municipal boundaries.

The source query starts October 9, 2026 (“10/9/2026+”) and runs through collection on October 16 at 11:30 a.m. PDT. The source does not expose an exact cutoff or boundary convention.

Reading The Activity

The 39 newly active events sit alongside 32 price reductions, so buyers have both fresh listings and repriced options to compare. Twenty pending events show movement into contract. The 23 sold events describe recorded closings in this activity view; they should not be substituted for September's monthly closed-sales count.

First Look is an early MLS view of listings. Current public availability may differ from the status recorded at collection. No prior-week change is shown because a verified adjacent, equal-duration comparison window is not available.

The Monthly Picture

Median sale price and average days on market describe homes that closed during the reporting month, not homes still listed for sale. For those sold homes, days on market measures the time from listing to offer acceptance.

September's Residential median sale price was $1,450,000: +16.0% month over month and -15.5% year over year. Changes in the mix of homes sold can move a median; these percentages do not establish the change in value of an individual home.

Homes for sale rose to 362, while pending sales totaled 69. The closed-sales supply measure was 4.9 months. Together these measures help describe the choices and pace buyers encountered, but each property's price, condition and location still matter.

Twelve Months Of Residential Trends

What This Means For Buyers

Compare the homes that fit your location, layout and budget, including listings with price adjustments. Look closely at condition, inspection findings and total ownership costs. More choice can give you room to be selective, but a well-matched home can still attract competition.

What This Means For Sellers

Build your pricing plan around nearby competing listings and relevant recent closed sales. Watch showing feedback and new alternatives after launch. Preparation, presentation and a realistic asking price work together; a citywide median is a starting point for context, not a property valuation.

Explore The Listing Register

The register includes First Look and newly active records once per MLS ID. Public links were checked on October 16, 2026 against the exact MLS ID. Team NSRG is used first, with Redfin fallback for First Look. Unresolved records remain explicit; a same-address listing with a different MLS number is not substituted.
