Blog > The Cost of Buying a Home in Edmonds: 2025 vs. 2027

How Much Will Waiting Really Cost You?
POV: It’s 2027, and you’re sitting in your beautiful Edmonds home — with $123,000 in equity already built up.
But if you waited two years to buy? You’d likely be paying more each month, for less financial return.
Here’s a side-by-side comparison of what the same home could look like in Edmonds between 2025 and 2027 π
π΅ Edmonds Home Price Comparison
Year | Home Price | Monthly Payment | Equity by 2027 |
---|---|---|---|
2025 | $950,000 | ~$4,500 | β $123,000 |
2027 | $1,100,000 | ~$5,280 | π« $0 |
That’s a $250,000 jump in purchase price and $780 higher monthly payment — just for waiting two years.
π§ Why Buying Sooner Matters
Let appreciation and equity start working for you.
Your first home doesn’t have to be your forever home — but it’s often the biggest piece of leverage to build long-term wealth.
As home values rise, so does your equity — the difference between your home’s market value and what you owe. That equity becomes a financial tool you can use to:
-
Trade up to your next home
-
Fund renovations or investments
-
Build a more secure financial future
Waiting often means paying more for the same home later — while missing out on thousands in appreciation and equity growth.
