TEAM NSRG | NOVEMBER 5, 2026

Detached-home activity for October 29-November 4, compared with October 22-28.

What changed this week

Pending activity held nearly steady, while fewer homes had price reductions. There were 95 pending listings in the latest period versus 96 previously; sold activity increased from 88 to 93. New Active activity rose from 88 to 91. These overlapping activity categories describe changes during the week, not the number of homes available today.

What it means for your next move

For buyers, compare the asking price with nearby closed sales and the condition of each home. For sellers, the decline in price reductions is useful context, but it does not replace a property-specific pricing review. Expirations increased from 12 to 46 during a period that includes month-end; that count alone does not establish weaker demand.

Seattle weekly activity comparison. New Active: 88 to 91; Pending: 96 to 95; Sold: 88 to 93; Price reductions: 96 to 78.

Unique listings in each activity category. Categories can overlap; this is not standing inventory.

October price context

InfoSparks reports an October 2026 average sales price of $1,198,366 for Seattle Residential properties. This monthly series covers a broader Residential group than the detached-only weekly activity above. An average can shift with the mix of homes that close; it is not an estimate of an individual home's value.

Thirteen months in context

October's average sales price was 1.6% higher than October 2025 and 8.5% higher than September 2026. The national monthly mortgage-rate mean was 7.33%, compared with 6.86% in September. These separate series provide context; their movement does not establish that one caused the other.

City means the NWMLS City field, not a separately verified municipal polygon. Residential styles 10-18, 25 and 26; Attached/Zero Lot Line and Incomplete excluded. The current detached classification was applied to both periods. Full dated change-history records were matched by MLS number to the detached eligibility set. Counts use unique listings per category per period; pending subtypes are combined without double counting. Categories overlap.

Prior period: October 22-28 inclusive. Current period: October 29-November 4 inclusive. These are adjacent seven-calendar-day periods in the local source dates. The November 1 Pacific daylight-saving change makes the current period 169 elapsed hours; the prior period is 168. They are not equal 168-hour windows. A zero prior count with new activity is shown as N/A; zero in both periods is shown as 0.0%.
