Lake Forest Park’s rolling three-month data shows home values holding roughly steady compared with a year ago, with the typical home value down less than 1 percent year over year. Listing prices have been essentially flat as well over that period. At the same time, inventory has risen sharply, with active listings up about 60 percent from a year earlier, giving buyers more options than they had last spring.
Looking at the latest rolling three months through April 2026, the market is still tilted toward sellers despite that inventory jump. Months of supply has nearly doubled year over year to 1.6, yet this level still points to limited overall availability. Homes continue to move quickly, with a median of just 5 days on market, unchanged from last year’s pace.
Pricing power remains evident, even with more homes available. More than half of recent sales, about 55 percent, closed above the list price, and the average sale-to-list ratio is over 103 percent, only slightly lower than a year ago. Closed sales, pending deals, and new listings have all climbed compared with last year, signaling steady buyer demand alongside improving seller activity. In this kind of fast-moving seller-leaning market with rising inventory, both buyers and sellers can benefit from an expert local agent, and Agent Pronto can help them find the right match.
