If My Everett Home Is Worth Around $950K to $1.15M, What Is Happening in That Price Range?

by Brandice Raybourn

If your Everett home is worth roughly $950,000 to $1.15 million, this price range had a surprisingly strong month.

Using May 2026 NWMLS residential resale data, Everett homes in the $950,000 to $1.149 million range had 13 active listings, 9 pending sales, and 4 closed sales.

The homes that sold spent a median of just 4 days on the market and sellers averaged 103.2% of their original list price.

Woof. That one caught my attention.

Why This Price Range Stands Out

This range was not the busiest part of the Everett market by total sales count, but the performance was strong.

Only 4 homes closed in this price range, so we do need to keep the sample size in mind. But those closed sales moved fast, and the sale price results were notable.

A median of 4 days on market tells us the homes that sold did not sit around.

A median of 5 showings to pending tells us buyers were not necessarily touring these homes over and over before making a decision.

And sellers averaging 103.2% of their original list price tells us that, for the homes that successfully sold, buyers were willing to compete.

Does That Mean Every Home in This Range Will Sell Over Asking?

No. Definitely not.

This data is based on closed sales, which means it reflects the homes that made it all the way to closing. Active listings in the same price range may be having a completely different experience.

A home can be in the right price range and still struggle if the pricing, condition, location, layout, presentation, or showing experience does not line up with what buyers expect.

That is especially true as prices move higher. Buyers tend to become more selective because they have more options across nearby cities and competing property types.

What This Means for Sellers

If your Everett home falls near this price range, the May data suggests there are serious buyers in the market.

But the key word is serious.

This is not necessarily a price range where buyers casually wander through dozens of homes before choosing one. Based on the closed sales data, the homes that sold found buyers quickly and with relatively few showings.

That can be a good sign for sellers, but it also means preparation matters. A home needs to make sense quickly.

Buyers at this level are usually comparing condition, setting, layout, updates, commute, schools, outdoor space, and what else they could buy nearby for the same money.

What This Means for Buyers

If you are shopping in this range, do not assume that higher-priced homes automatically mean more negotiating room.

In Everett this month, the $950,000 to $1.149 million resale range performed very strongly based on the homes that closed.

That does not mean you need to panic. It does mean you should understand the property you are looking at and how it compares to the rest of the market before assuming there is room to negotiate.

The Bigger Takeaway

The $950,000 to $1.149 million range was one of the more interesting parts of Everett’s market this month.

It was not the largest market by volume, but it was fast, decisive, and strong for the sellers who successfully closed.

This is exactly why price range matters. Everett is not behaving like one single market.
