Let’s check in on the NWMLS statistics from around the sound. I realized this month that if I’m going to include Skagit County in the Puget Sound wrapup, I should probably include Island County as well. So from now on we’re looking at seven Puget Sound counties. I’d change the name of the site to “PugetSoundBubble.com,” but I wouldn’t want to sacrifice the name recognition we’ve built up over the last few years. Anyway, here’s a little graphical look at what the market looks like around the sound.

King - Price: -3.6% | Listings: +49.4% | Sales: -27.8% | MOS: 6.2
Snohomish - Price: -6.7% | Listings: +27.7% | Sales: -42.9% | MOS: 7.9
