Heed the Call of the Water | RSIR Waterfront Report

Heed the call of the water.

The beautiful landscapes of the Pacific Northwest aren’t complete without our water views. From in-city waterfronts along our lakes and the majesty of the Puget Sound, to island living and vistas along Washington’s scenic port towns, there’s nothing like finding a piece of shoreline to call your own.

Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty has observed over two years of waterfront transactions, from January 2019 through March 2021 across Western Washington’s most sought-after destinations.

By first looking at transactions by county we will start to look at price points generally, as well as the time on the waterfront homes are on the market, and larger trends that indicate which times of year are ideal to enter the market as a seller or buyer. Following a year where we’ve seen such significant price growth, increase in demand coupled with short time homes are on the market across the region, one thing is certain—that working with a Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty waterfront expert in order to achieve your goals, whether you’re buying or selling a primary residence, second home, or remote getaway, is an absolute necessity.
