What King County sellers listed, August 2026
housing
King County sellers put 2,512 new listings on the market in August 2026, up 12.3% from the same month a year earlier. The year-over-year comparison is the only fair one here: this series has a spring peak and a December trough every single year, so a fall from June to November says nothing except that it got dark.
New listings are the supply side of the inventory number — what sellers add, rather than what is sitting unsold. The two move apart when demand shifts: inventory can climb on flat new listings if buyers stop absorbing them.
