Team NSRG | October 27, 2026 | By Jeremy Minor
Historical report snapshot: October 27, 2026. Market figures below reflect that report date; listing-status notes were checked November 3, 2026. This is not a current-week market update.
Lynnwood buyers have more room to compare, while sellers need to make a clear case for their asking price. September's broader Residential market had substantially more homes for sale than a year earlier and a lower average sold-home price. My read is that preparation and realistic pricing matter more than relying on yesterday's market.
What Buyers And Sellers Can Take From This
For buyers: Compare the alternatives carefully and keep condition, location and your monthly payment in view. More selection can create negotiating opportunities, but it does not make every asking price a bargain.
For sellers: Show buyers why your home is worth choosing. A competitive price and strong presentation can help you stand out when buyers have more alternatives.
The October 27 Report Snapshot
The October 27 snapshot recorded 10 pending events, 7 sold events and 13 price reductions. Our October 20 report recorded 14, 11 and 18 respectively. Activity was quieter across those categories. These are comparisons with our October 20 report, not identical seven-day periods.

September Context For Your Decision
September's broader Residential homes for sale rose 50.3% year over year, while closed sales fell 5.1%. Average sold-home price was 3.5% lower than a year earlier and 6.5% below August. Together, these figures suggest buyers can be selective and sellers should test their asking price against the actual competition.

Rates And Your Monthly Payment
August and September 2026 only: a two-month comparison, not a sustained trend.
The national 30-year fixed weekly survey averaged 6.67% in August and 6.86% in September. Price is only one part of affordability: compare the payment for the home and financing available to you. These national series do not establish why local prices changed.
Mortgage-Rate Snapshot: October 26, 2026
The latest dated Mortgage News Daily observation checked for this report was October 26. These national index readings are context, not a lender quote or live widget. MND's daily index differs from Freddie Mac's weekly survey; the two methods and their rates are not interchangeable.

|---|---|---|
30-year fixed | 7.33% | 0.00 |
15-year fixed | 6.99% | +0.01 |
30-year jumbo | 7.60% | 0.00 |
7/6 SOFR ARM | 6.82% | +0.07 |

Questions Buyers And Sellers Ask
Does the average price tell me what my home is worth?
No. It describes the mix of homes that sold. Recent comparable sales, current competition, condition and location provide a more useful starting point for an individual home.
Do these weekly counts equal the number of homes available?
No. They count listing-status events in the source view, and a listing can appear in more than one category. Monthly homes-for-sale figures are a separate, broader Residential measure.
