Market Insights | February 2021

Stanwood and Camano Island continue to experience pent-up demand from buyers that want to move to our community – or currently live here and are ready to downsize or move up. As a result, prices continue to creep up, rising more than 10% from a year ago. Of the 54 residential homes sold last month, 20 sold at the listing price, and 24 sold above the listing price.  116% was the highest list to sale price ratio in February. The average was 102%.

Our team is working hard to prepare Buyers both emotionally and financially for the realities they face competing for such a limited number of listings. With ‘Spring in the air’ and some of the restrictions being eased, we anticipate more listings to hit the market – we also see Buyer demand continuing, even with the slight increase in interest rates. The intensity that we are seeing now should come down a little as new listings are added.

At Windermere, our attention to the local market, dedication to the community, and commitment to our trade is why we help our clients sell more real estate in Stanwood and Camano Island than any other company.
