Washington is slowing down. And while it’s not quite a buyer’s market, it’s much closer than it has been in a while.

As previously reported, house-hunters in the state are facing a market with the largest supply of homes in three years, creating fewer bidding wars and a drop in pending sales (which, in turn, helps prices not skyrocket and creates fewer bidding wars).
