Punxsutawney Phil may have predicted six more weeks of winter, but when it comes to the Seattle real estate market, he couldn’t be more wrong! While the calendar still says winter, buyers are already out, and homes are moving, indicating an early Spring for real estate! If you’re thinking of making a move in 2025, now is the time to get ahead of the competition!
Why Is the Market Heating Up So Early?
Seattle’s real estate market is known for its high demand and limited inventory, and this year is proving no different. Typically, we see the market pick up in February and March. But as I reported last week, we already see multiple offers—even on higher-priced homes.
This early activity signals buyers are eager to secure a home before the spring rush.

What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
For Sellers: With active buyers in the market, now is a prime time to list before the competition increases in the spring. If you’re considering selling, it’s worth getting your home ready to take advantage of the early demand.
For Buyers: The market is moving, and waiting could mean facing more competition in the coming months. If you’ve been on the fence, acting now could help you secure a home before bidding wars potentially become the norm.
