Homeowners in Bellevue and across the Eastside are seeing significant increases in property values this year, according to early data from the King County Assessor’s Office. While most of King County experienced modest gains, the Eastside — including Bellevue — led the way with an average increase of 9.81%.

The annual property valuation notices reflect market activity from January 1, 2024, and will be used to calculate property taxes due in 2025.
