Seattle home values and housing data, from records we hold.
The figures for Seattle’s homes below are computed from records we hold ourselves — county parcels swept into our own store — not scraped from another site. A figure from anywhere else — a survey’s rate, an example price, a published metro reading — is named as that where it appears.
How much are homes in Seattle, WA estimated to be worth?
We hold 222,068 county parcel records for Seattle and too few automated value estimates to publish a figure, so this page reports the housing stock only.
What does a typical Seattle home look like?
Across 222,068 residential county parcels in Seattle: the median home is 1,570 square feet with 3 bedrooms, built around 1954 (about 72 years old), on a 5,663 sq ft lot. 71% of parcels are single-family homes and 19% are condominiums.
How old are Seattle's homes, and what kind are they?
The median Seattle home was built around 1954, which makes the typical house about 72 years old — post-war construction. Buyers price that age into their offer: roofs, wiring, plumbing and windows of that era are either already replaced or on the list, and the county record shows which. The median parcel is a 5,663 sq ft lot (about 0.13 acres), the conventional suburban footprint. Single-family homes are 71% of parcels and condominiums 19%, so most sellers are pricing a house and its land. These are medians across all 222,068 residential parcels we hold for Seattle, not a sample.
What is the Seattle housing market doing right now?
The typical mid-tier home value across the Seattle, WA metro area was $727,359 as of August 2026; the median sale price was $708,500 (August 2026); 29.6% of homes sold above asking and the average sale closed at 99.4% of list; 4,001 new listings came to market in August 2026. That is a balanced market: pricing discipline decides whether a home sells in weeks or sits. The metro figures cover the whole metro area and are not a valuation of any one home.
How do I find out what my own Seattle home is worth?
Enter your address on this page. We look up the county record for your home — size, lot, year built, last recorded sale — and show an automated estimate beside it, with no phone number and no agent calling you. Then, if you choose, post the home once: up to ten Seattle agents, ranked by verified performance and never by payment, each send a sealed proposal with their own pricing opinion and their fee in writing. So several written opinions of price and fee are worth more here than any single estimate.
