What Kitsap homes actually sold for.
A monthly letter with the real numbers for the Kitsap towns you pick, in your price range. No listings. No pitch. And when it is a month to wait, it says so.
It seems like the last thing you need is another agent emailing you. So this is one email a month, it is numbers rather than inventory, and there is an unsubscribe link in every single one.
Everyone will show you listings. Nobody will tell you what they mean.
The portals send you every house that matches a filter, which is noise dressed as service. The agents who follow up want an appointment this week, because that is how they are measured. Neither one answers the question you are actually asking, which is whether the number in front of you is a fair number.
You are probably months away from doing anything. That is not a problem to be solved with more urgency. It is the exact moment when knowing the market is worth the most, and when almost nobody will help you for free.
How this works
- Pick your townsTwo or three you are actually looking in, and roughly what you expect to spend. That is what decides which numbers you get.
- One letter a monthWhat homes like yours sold for, what is coming, and what I would do in your position. Nothing else arrives in between.
- We talk when it is worth talkingYou told me your timeline, so I will use it. Nobody is going to call you in month one because you read an email.
Why take my read on it
I have been selling in Kitsap since 2001 and have closed past 1,000+ homes here. Buyers I represent close at 95.48% of list price on average, which is roughly four and a half percent under asking.
That is the number I would want before trusting anyone’s opinion on a market, so it is the one I lead with. Most agents cannot quote a figure at all.

What one actually looks like
An illustration, not a real send. The numbers below are examples of the shape the letter takes, not this month’s figures.
Eleven homes sold in your range last month. The median took 28 days and closed a shade under asking. Two of them had been sitting since spring and took real cuts to move, which tells you more about the market than the median does.
What I would do this month. Nothing urgent. Inventory in your band is climbing and the houses that are moving are the ones that were priced right on day one. If you wait six weeks you will have more to choose from and more room to negotiate. If something specific comes up, that is a different conversation.

The fair questions
- Is this just a way to get me on a call?
- No, and the timeline field is how I prove it. If you say you are six to twelve months out, you will not hear from me other than the letter. The only version that ends with an ask is the one that goes to people who said they are looking inside ninety days.
- How is this different from Zillow alerts?
- Those tell you what is for sale. This tells you what things actually closed at, which is the only number that matters when you are deciding what to offer, and it comes with a read on whether to act at all.
- Will you sell my email?
- No. It goes into my own database so I know which letter to send you, and nowhere else. Unsubscribe from any letter and the whole thing stops.
- What if I already have an agent?
- Then read it anyway and use it with them. I would rather be useful to you now than be the only option later.
Pick your towns and I’ll send the first one.
It takes about twenty seconds and costs you one email a month.
