Market context
What's shaping the Redmond market.
Microsoft's Redmond campus is the Eastside's anchor employer, and the demand it creates for LWSD-zoned homes in the $900K–$1.5M range is structural. Microsoft employees — engineers, program managers, and executives — drive consistent volume in Overlake, Education Hill, and the neighborhoods bordering the campus. This buyer pool is sophisticated, pre-approved, and moves quickly.
Redmond's downtown revitalization has changed the city's character meaningfully over the past decade. New mixed-use development, improved transit, and a growing restaurant and retail scene have made downtown Redmond a genuine destination for buyers who want walkability without Kirkland pricing. The Link Light Rail extension to Redmond Technology Station added another layer of transit-oriented demand.
Education Hill is Redmond's most desirable established neighborhood — quiet streets, strong LWSD elementary access, and larger lots than most Eastside cities at comparable price points. Overlake offers newer construction and proximity to Microsoft at prices that reflect the convenience premium.
New construction availability is one of Redmond's advantages over Kirkland and Bellevue. Buyers who want a warranty, modern floor plans, and energy-efficient systems find more options in Redmond — though these homes carry a new-construction premium and require careful comparisons against well-updated resales.

FAQ
Questions buyers and sellers ask first.
What is the median home price in Redmond WA?
Redmond median home prices typically range from $950K to $1.4M depending on the neighborhood and quarter. Newer construction in Overlake and Education Hill trades at $1.1M–$1.8M, while older inventory near downtown Redmond offers more moderate entry points.
Which school district serves Redmond homes?
Most of Redmond is served by Lake Washington School District, one of Washington's top-ranked public systems. Some western Redmond areas near the Bellevue border may fall in Bellevue School District. School assignment should always be verified by specific address.
Is Redmond's real estate market still growing?
Yes. Redmond's downtown revitalization, Microsoft's campus expansion, and continued tech employer clustering have sustained long-term demand. The city has added more new construction than most Eastside cities, giving buyers options that Kirkland and Bellevue can't match.
How does Redmond compare to Kirkland for buyers?
Redmond often offers more inventory and slightly more moderate pricing than Kirkland, with equivalent LWSD school access. Kirkland has stronger waterfront access and a more established downtown; Redmond has newer construction and stronger proximity to Microsoft. Many buyers compare both before deciding.
