What Sellers Need to Know About the Windsor Market in 2026.

Windsor is one of the strongest seller's markets in Sonoma County right now — and most people do not realize it. While Healdsburg has been softening and Santa Rosa has been sluggish, Windsor has been quietly moving. Inventory is tight, days on market are running at 39 days, and in the spring of 2026 we saw homes close at 103% of list price. That is not a fluke. It is a market with more qualified buyers than available homes.

The buyers choosing Windsor in 2026 are a specific group: families who have done the research on Windsor Unified and want in, Bay Area commuters who have run the numbers on the SMART train, and buyers who looked seriously at Healdsburg and decided the value equation in Windsor made more sense. These are motivated, informed buyers — and they are not waiting around.

Jonathan Bruington has family roots in Windsor and has been selling here for years. David Hargreaves covers both markets actively and understands exactly how Windsor sits in the buyer's mind relative to Healdsburg and Santa Rosa. We live and work in this market. When we tell you what your home is worth and how to position it, we are telling you from the inside.

THE MARKET

Windsor Is One of the Strongest Seller's Markets in the County.

Windsor and Healdsburg are 10 minutes apart. Right now they are telling very different stories — and Windsor's is the one sellers want to be in. Inventory is tight, buyers are qualified, and homes priced correctly are generating competition.

In 2026, the average Windsor home closed close to list price. There are simply not enough homes for the buyers looking — which means a well-priced, well-presented Windsor property should not sit.

WHY US

What Makes the Difference When You Sell.

No.2 Ranked Team in Sonoma County.

RealTrends 2024 ranks BruingtonHargreaves as the No. 2 team in Sonoma County and No. 2 in Windsor. We are one of the most active teams in the north of the county, and Windsor buyers know our name.

$85M+ in Sales. 70+ Transactions.

From Lakewood family homes to Rural West Windsor acreage, we have closed transactions across every Windsor neighbourhood and every price point. That breadth means we know exactly who buys what — and where to find them.

5,000 Subscribers. Every Friday.

The Sonoma County Insider reaches nearly 5,000 active readers each week — buyers, investors, and relocators who follow this market closely. Your listing goes directly into that conversation the week it goes live.

250,000+ Views. Local Authority.

Our YouTube channel, social media and editorial presence mean buyers already know who we are before they call. That existing trust shortens the path from first look to written offer.

Priced Right. From Day One.

We pull fresh Windsor market data every month. You get a defensible list price based on real absorption rates and current comparable sales — not an inflated number designed to win your listing, and not a conservative number designed to generate a quick sale.

We Know Windsor From the Inside.

Jonathan Bruington's family roots in Windsor run deep, Jeff Catomer lives in Windsor. He has watched this market evolve through multiple cycles and has been involved in residential sales and projects across the town for years. That is not something you can replicate with a database.

305 Windflower Court, Windsor

Sold: $1,487,000

Upper-tier Windsor requires the right buyer and targeted marketing — this sale delivered both, with a result above what a less connected team would have achieved.

8668 Starr Road, Windsor

Sold: $1,350,000

HOW WE WORK

Simple Process. No Surprises.

inception-app-prod/ZDFmOWMzYTktNzU4Zi00YTIzLTk3MjYtYThkN2JkMGVlYzA3/content/2026/05/e1430f3ffc2848eed8abd1b1bd1a0cd4090c9178.webp

Consultation

A phone call first, then a visit to your home. We take the time to understand your goals, walk the property with fresh eyes, and give you an honest in-person assessment and valuation. No scripts, no rush.

Pricing Strategy and Marketing Plan

We present a detailed, data-driven pricing analysis — not a number pulled from thin air. Then we walk you through a marketing plan that is unlike anything you will see from another agent in this market. We do not waste your time talking about open houses and the websites everyone else lists on. Our approach is different, and we will show you exactly why.

Preparation and Launch

We handle everything needed to get your home ready — even if you are not local. Staging direction, contractor coordination, photography, video. And throughout the whole process, you work directly with David and Jonathan. You will not be handed off to a junior agent.

VACATION RENTALS

Selling a Windsor Vacation Rental Is a Different Conversation

Only properties in Windsor outside the city limits are potentially eligible to operate as a vacation

rental by the next owner. If your home does qualify it could potentially sell for a premium if marketed correctly. Most agents do not know how. We do.

inception-app-prod/ZDFmOWMzYTktNzU4Zi00YTIzLTk3MjYtYThkN2JkMGVlYzA3/content/2026/06/b007d6681e0e87e781bdf3df71305216966d6313.jpg

Packaging It Properly.

Presenting a short-term rental as a turnkey business — with permit eligibility proof, property manager handoff, furniture inventory, and a clean trailing income summary or forecast — is what separates a fast sale from a long one. We help you assemble all of it before the listing goes live.

Marketing to an Active Buyer Base

We maintain a private website listing every vacation-rental-eligible property for sale across Sonoma County, and a weekly investor email to approximately 200 active STR buyers. When your Windsor rental lists with us, it goes to that audience immediately.

Sonoma County's No.1 Vacation Rental Team.

We transact approximately $25 million a year in vacation rental properties across Sonoma

County. That volume means we understand STR valuations, permit transfer rules, and what income-focused buyers need to see before they write an offer.
