On a tight budget? Check out these 3 inexpensive homes for sale in Spokane

Let’s get the blogging party started and talk about housing affordability in Spokane. The latest figures from our Multiple Listing Service show us the same story we’ve seen for months: Sales are up, prices are up and the inventory of homes for sale in Spokane is down.

With inventory as tight as it is, first-time homebuyers or those on tight budgets are fighting for listings under the average price, trying to get into a home before interest rates rise again. The good news is that there are more than 1,100 homes for sale right now, priced below Spokane’s median sales price ($200,000).

Those at the bottom of the price range are typically mobile homes and homes that require a significant amount of work. So, we’re leaving them off the list today. If you’re interested in knowing more about these homes, click here.
