Call (206) 790-1813Federal Way Homes for Sale
Typical range: $525K – $1.6M
Federal Way is my home base — and it's still one of the best values in South King County. From Twin Lakes country-club homes to first-time-buyer ramblers in Mirror Lake, here's what's actually happening on the ground.
Tacoma Homes for Sale
Typical range: $425K – $2.5M+
Tacoma is one of the Pacific Northwest's most diverse markets — historic North End craftsmans, modern downtown condos, and view homes you genuinely can't find at this price anywhere else around Puget Sound.
Auburn Homes for Sale
Typical range: $500K – $1.1M
Auburn keeps quietly out-performing. Lakeland Hills and Lea Hill offer newer construction, real square footage, and access to Auburn School District without the West Hill premium.
Kent Homes for Sale
Typical range: $525K – $1.4M
Kent's East Hill, Lake Meridian, and Panther Lake neighborhoods deliver a lot of home for the money — plus genuine community feel and quick I-5/167/405 access for almost any commute.
Des Moines Homes for Sale
Typical range: $525K – $2M
Des Moines is criminally underrated. Marina District, Redondo, and Woodmont give you Puget Sound waterfront living minutes from Sea-Tac, light rail, and downtown Seattle.
Brown's Point & Dash Point Homes for Sale
Typical range: $700K – $3.5M
If you want Puget Sound out your kitchen window, this is the address. Brown's Point and Dash Point are tightly held — when something good lists, it moves in days.
Bonney Lake & Lake Tapps Homes for Sale
Typical range: $575K – $3M
Lake Tapps is the South Sound's best-kept summer secret — boating, jet skis, and lakefront sunsets, with Bonney Lake's family-friendly grid of newer construction right next door.
Burien Homes for Sale
Typical range: $575K – $2.5M
Olde Burien's downtown is a sleeper-hit walkable district, and Three Tree Point is one of the most exclusive waterfront enclaves in the entire region. There's a reason Burien keeps showing up on best-place-to-live lists.
Puyallup Homes for Sale
Typical range: $500K – $1.2M
South Hill Puyallup quietly delivers more home for your money than almost anywhere else in the region — modern construction, real lots, Mt. Rainier views, and a walkable downtown that punches way above its weight.
Renton Homes for Sale
Typical range: $625K – $1.8M
Renton sits at the cross-roads of everything — Lake Washington access, the Newcastle/Eastside premium creeping in, and faster Bellevue/Seattle commutes than buyers from further south get to enjoy.
