Today we’re welcoming RexMont Real Estate as a new WSB sponsor, When local businesses join the WSB sponsor team, they get an opportunity to tell you about what they do – so here’s what RexMont Real Estate would like you to know:
Nearly half the homes for sale in West Seattle right now have already cut their asking price. Yet the homes that sold here in September went in a median of 12 days, at full price. Same peninsula, same season, two very different markets, and reading that gap for the people who live here is why RexMont Real Estate is joining WSB as a sponsor.
Who we are
RexMont Real Estate is a residential brokerage led by founder and designated broker Adriano Tori. We work with buyers and sellers across Seattle and the Eastside, West Seattle included. Every month we publish free housing numbers for 47 Puget Sound cities and neighborhoods, so anyone can check the market before making a move.
West Seattle by the numbers, September 2026
-95 homes sold across 98106, 98116, 98126 and 98136, down from 104 in September 2025.
-Median sale price: $820,000, 2.9% below a year ago. Median price per square foot: $515.
-Median time on market: 12 days. Seattle as a whole took 20.
-Houses: 79 sales at a median $885,000, gone in a median 9 days. Condos: 16 sales at a median $549,500.
22% of the homes that sold closed above their original asking price.
-As of October 12: 299 homes for sale, 87 pending, a median asking price of $765,000, and 44% of those listings reduced from their first price.
-About 3.1 months of supply, against 4.7 months citywide.
If you are selling
West Seattle still moves faster than the rest of the city when the price is right on day one. The homes that miss tend to sit, cut, and sit again. Price to what closed nearby in the last 90 days, not to the listing down the street.
If you are buying
A home that has been on the market for a month with a price cut is a different negotiation from one that came on last Thursday. Ask for the days on market and the price history before you write an offer. With 44% of current listings already reduced, there is often room on price, terms or both.
Free numbers, every month
