Edmonds Market Update: What the Fall 2026 Numbers Show

Here's the straight read on the Edmonds market as of fall 2026. It is still a seller's market, but a noticeably softer one than a year ago, and the shift is mostly good news for buyers who kept getting outbid in the Bowl and the hilltop neighborhoods.

The Edmonds numbers

In the NWMLS September report, the median home price in Edmonds city was $949,500 as of August 2026, up about 1 percent from a year earlier. The median single-family home ran $1,112,500, and the median condo or townhome was $725,000. The Madrona Group's October report puts the September residential median a bit higher at $994,750, up 1.5 percent year over year. Different sources, same story: prices are holding, not falling, but growth is modest.

Days on market tells the same tale. Homes were selling in a median of about 20 days in late summer, with active-listing averages around 23 days, up from the single-digit frenzies of a couple of years ago. Still quick by most standards, but no longer the list Friday, gone Monday pace.

The inventory story is the real news

The big change is on the supply side. Active listings in Edmonds totaled roughly 220 this fall, with about 172 single-family homes for sale, up more than 70 percent from a year earlier. Months of supply sat around 3.2, compared with about 1.8 a year ago. That is the loosest the Edmonds market has been in years. Buyers have real selection now, and for the first time in a while, a well-priced home that sits for two weeks is not automatically a problem for the seller.

Zillow's average home value for the city was about $907,000 as of August 2026, down a hair year over year, with homes going pending in about 17 days.

What's happening county-wide

Across Snohomish County, the NWMLS September median was $720,000, down 0.4 percent year over year, with about 37 days on market and active listings up about 44 percent. Edmonds is the premium at the south end of the county, tracking the same flattening theme but with prices that have held a little firmer than the county as a whole.

What it means for you

If you are selling in Edmonds, you can't count on the froth of a couple of years ago. Pricing to the market from day one, staging, and marketing hard matter more now, because buyers have options. The good news: waterfront and Bowl-view properties that carry the premium still move, and the median is holding around $950,000 to $995,000.

If you are buying, this is the most leverage Edmonds buyers have had in years. More inventory, longer days on market, and more room to negotiate on condition and terms. The trade-off is the premium itself: Edmonds still costs more than almost anywhere else in the county, and the built-out, older housing stock means condition is where the value shows up.

The takeaway

The Edmonds market has flattened, not fallen, and the extra inventory gives both sides more room to breathe. If you want to know what your home is worth today, or what the current inventory looks like in your price range, that's a conversation Curt is glad to have, no pressure.
