Understanding the Kitsap County Luxury Housing Market - Weekly Edition: September 6th – 13th, 2024
Greetings, Luxe Lovers of Kitsap County!
Let’s be honest, if you’re here, it’s because you’re the kind of person who enjoys a good cocktail and appreciates the finer things in life… like luxurious homes with enough space to house a small army or at least a couple of Labradoodles and an espresso machine that costs more than my car. So grab your favorite beverage (may I suggest something bubbly?) and let’s dive into the swanky world of Kitsap County’s luxury housing market for the week of September 6th to September 13th, 2024.
The Fabulous 16 – Active Listings
Let’s start with the active listings. As of this week, there are 16 beautiful estates awaiting their new owners, each with enough charm and space to make your heart skip a beat. If houses had a Tinder profile, these would be the "super likes." You can practically hear the purr of the Teslas in the driveway.
Now, while these homes are undoubtedly showstoppers, they're not lingering around waiting for just “anyone” to swipe right. The average CDOM (Cumulative Days on Market) for these luxurious listings is a sleek 13 days —because when you’re this attractive, you don’t stay single for long. Homes are getting snapped up faster than a pair of Louboutins on sale, which tells you that the luxury market is still as hot as ever.
And what’s the price tag on these dreamy domiciles, you ask? Oh, just a cool $1,792,000 on average. But if you’re feeling particularly flush, there’s an active high listing this week priced at a modest $5.2 million. Yes, you read that right, $5.2 million—because why not?
Pending, Pending, Gone!
Let’s move on to the pending homes —the ones that are practically taken but still in the honeymoon phase of the real estate process. This week, 6 homes are in the pending category, with a slightly longer CDOM of 29 days. These homes are like that person who takes a little longer to make a decision but is totally worth the wait.
The average pending price? A breezy $1,368,000. Not too shabby, right? These homes are perfect for those who want to live in luxury but maybe not splurge on the biggest mansion on the block. Think of it as a "luxury-lite" option, like ordering a venti instead of a trenta latte—it’s still large, just not “the largest”.
Sold! The Final Countdown
Now let’s talk about the real winners of the week: the sold homes. Ah, yes. This is where the magic happens. Five stunning homes have officially changed hands, with a jaw-droppingly swift CDOM of 5 days. Yes, you read that right—just 5 days! That’s less time than it takes most people to decide on what to watch on Netflix. Clearly, these luxury homes are flying off the shelves like that elusive Birkin bag you’ve had your eye on.
And the average sold price for these lucky properties? A breezy $1,506,000. But wait, there's more! The high sold price this week topped out at a cool $2 million. These homes didn’t just sell; they strutted their way to the closing table like runway models at Paris Fashion Week, all while maintaining that air of effortless chic.
