Redmond, WA homes for sale & market guide

Home of Microsoft, a fast-growing light-rail downtown, and an unmatched trail network.

About Redmond

Redmond pairs one of the world's best-known employment anchors — the Microsoft campus — with a downtown that has transformed over the last decade into a walkable, mixed-use center now served by light rail. Add the region's most extensive trail and park network (Redmond bills itself as the 'Bicycle Capital of the Northwest') and you have a city that draws buyers who want suburban space without giving up amenities.

Housing splits between established single-family neighborhoods like Education Hill, Grass Lawn, and Idylwood, and a rapidly expanding stock of condos and townhomes in and around Downtown and Overlake. The light-rail extension into Downtown Redmond has made transit-served condos and townhomes a distinct, attractive segment for buyers who commute or prefer a lock-and-leave home.

Redmond tends to offer slightly more home for the money than Kirkland or central Bellevue, while keeping top employers and the Lake Washington School District within easy reach — a combination that keeps demand strong across price points.
