Methodology & data sources
Market statistics on this page — median listing price, price per square foot, and days on market — are computed from active residential listings in Renton, WA, sourced from RentCast, a licensed real-estate data provider aggregating MLS records and county public records. Figures refresh the first week of every month (current data: September 2026) and are reviewed by RexMont Real Estate's brokerage team (WA firm license #21220). Individual property listings shown on this page come from the live NWMLS feed. Historical figures are not restated after publication.

Market context
Fairwood buyers get south Bellevue suburban character at a significant value.
Fairwood competes most directly with south Bellevue neighborhoods — Newport Hills, Somerset, and Lakemont — for families who want large homes, maintained common areas, and suburban amenities. Fairwood typically comes in 20–30% below those markets for comparable homes. Buyers who find south Bellevue pricing out of reach consistently arrive at Fairwood as the strongest value alternative.
School district assignment is the critical variable in Fairwood. Because the community straddles multiple district boundaries, two homes two streets apart may be in different school districts. RexMont verifies school assignments by address before offers are made — not after inspection. This is a non-negotiable step for families whose purchase decision depends on school access.
Fairwood's HOA landscape is active, with most neighborhoods carrying meaningful CC&Rs and association fees. HOA financial health, reserve levels, and upcoming assessments are part of due diligence. RexMont reviews HOA documents as part of the standard buyer process in communities with association governance.

FAQ
Questions buyers and sellers ask first.
What is Fairwood known for?
Fairwood is an unincorporated King County community between Renton, Bellevue, and Kent that offers a strong mix of family-sized homes, quiet suburban character, and excellent freeway access at prices well below south Bellevue. The area has a strong homeowner association culture with maintained common areas, and feeds into multiple school districts depending on exact address.
What is the price range for Fairwood homes?
Fairwood single-family homes typically range from $650K–$1.05M depending on size, lot, school district assignment, and condition. Larger updated homes near the Fairwood Golf & Country Club neighborhood can exceed that range; smaller or original-condition homes sit in the lower half.
Which school district serves Fairwood?
Fairwood school assignments depend on exact address — some addresses fall in Renton School District, others in Kent School District. School boundaries should be verified by address before any offer is made. RexMont verifies school assignments as part of buyer due diligence.
How does Fairwood compare to south Bellevue neighborhoods?
Fairwood offers comparable home sizes and suburban character to south Bellevue neighborhoods like Newport Hills at 20–30% lower pricing. The tradeoff is Renton or Kent school districts rather than Bellevue SD, and a slightly longer drive to Bellevue's commercial core. For buyers who prioritize space and value over school district prestige, Fairwood consistently wins on price per square foot.
Can RexMont help me buy in Fairwood?
Yes. RexMont covers Fairwood and can advise on school district verification by address, HOA health assessment, and value positioning relative to south Bellevue and Kent alternatives.
