Moses Lake, WA Housing Market 2026: What Homes Actually Sell For

Moses Lake closes a lot of homes into a narrow band, which makes its median unusually informative: sales over the last six months land close together, so the citywide number is a real anchor rather than an average of extremes.

The snapshot

  • •Closings tracked, last 6 months: 282
  • •Median sold price, last 6 months: $357,950
  • •Median sold $/sqft, last 6 months: $220
  • •Middle half of sales closed between: $275,000 and $399,900

What the numbers say

Resideline tracked 282 closed sales in Moses Lake over the last six months, with a median closing price of $357,950. That median is the midpoint of what buyers actually paid, not what sellers hoped to get, which is why it moves differently from the asking prices you see on listing sites. The middle half of those sales closed between $275,000 and $399,900. That spread matters more than the headline median: where a specific property sits inside it decides whether the citywide number helps you or misleads you. These are the closings Resideline tracks and may differ from complete county or municipal records. 83% of the Moses Lake closings we track here are single-family houses, so these figures primarily reflect that segment, and the citywide $/sqft figure primarily reflects that segment as well. Across the 281 closings with usable living area, the middle half sold between $171 and $254 per square foot.

Medians hide the shape of a market. The distribution above covers the closed sales Resideline tracked in Moses Lake over the last six months that carry a usable sale date, trimmed to the 5th through 95th percentile, with the middle half of sales closing between $275,000 and $399,900. Among the 67 Washington markets with a published band, Moses Lake's middle-half spread ($275,000 to $399,900) ranks 24th from the narrowest.

How long a sale takes here

  • •Listed to under contract: a median of 44 days, across 198 Moses Lake closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
  • •Contract to closing: a median of 32 days, across 200 Moses Lake closings Resideline tracked in the last six months
Both are measured from the closings themselves, not from listing inventory. Each sale is timed using its own listing and contract dates. That is why these counts are smaller than the 282 closings above: a sale is counted here only when we hold both of its dates.

From market read to offer price

A tight market makes the next step easier: the citywide anchor sits close to most homes, and a report only has to explain the gap. The decision still comes down to one property and one number: what it is actually worth and what you should pay. Every Resideline report opens with this same market snapshot for the subject's exact ZIP code, then gives you the property's value, the sold comps behind it, and a market rent estimate. Pricing a specific deal? The free ARV calculator, rehab cost estimator, BRRRR calculator and rental property calculator run the numbers in about a minute.

And we show our work. Every estimate is frozen while the home is for sale and graded against the real closing price after it sells. See the live accuracy dashboard for the receipts, or read how the Area Market Snapshot works.

Run any Moses Lake address through Resideline and you will see the local market and the property's value together, in one report.

The local market statistics in this report are calculated from closed sales tracked by Resideline. Transaction coverage may differ from complete county or municipal records.

Every local market figure on this page is computed from closed sales Resideline tracked in Moses Lake over the last six months, and is refreshed when the data is. The closings we track within the Moses Lake city limits are not limited to listing-service sales: they also include foreclosure deeds, estate and family transfers, and other off-market sales that portal medians exclude, which is why 13% of the 282 closings in this window never appeared on a listing service, and the median of MLS-listed sales alone was $360,409.
