The towns closest to Pullman with homes for sale are Moscow, Idaho, Colfax, Palouse, and Garfield. In Jordan's latest published figures, Moscow has the highest median list price at $581,500 (IMLS, October 5, 2026), while Garfield ($359,000, October 19, 2026) and Colfax ($376,950, September 18, 2026) sit lowest. Pullman's median active list price is $489,500 (PACMLS, October 19, 2026). The figures come from different MLS feeds and dates, so read them side by side and not as one combined number.
Each row uses the figures from Jordan's own guide for that town, with the as-of date and source shown. Pullman comes from PACMLS, Pullman, WA, manufactured homes excluded, as of October 19, 2026.

Pullman's 70 active listings include condos and site built homes with a status of Active or Active Under Contract With Bump. Moscow is on IMLS and the others are on PACMLS, so the counts and medians are not directly pooled. Every figure changes as listings and sales change, so confirm current numbers before you rely on them.
Moscow, Idaho, Colfax, Palouse, and Garfield all have homes for sale within a short drive of Pullman. As of the dates in Jordan's guides, Moscow had 58 active listings (IMLS, October 5, 2026), Colfax 18 (PACMLS, September 18, 2026), Palouse 6 site built homes (PACMLS, October 12, 2026), and Garfield 5 site built homes (PACMLS, October 19, 2026). Pullman itself had 70 active listings (PACMLS, October 19, 2026).
On the published medians, yes. Colfax had a median list price of $376,950 (PACMLS, September 18, 2026) and Palouse $447,500 (PACMLS, October 12, 2026), compared with $489,500 in Pullman (PACMLS, October 19, 2026). Median sold prices follow the same order: $325,000 in Colfax, $391,000 in Palouse, and $449,500 in Pullman, though each covers a different six-month window. The dates differ and Palouse has only 6 active site built homes, so treat the gap as a general pattern and not an exact price difference.
On list prices, Moscow was higher. Jordan's Moscow guide shows a median list price of $581,500 across 58 active listings (IMLS, October 5, 2026, manufactured homes excluded), against $489,500 for Pullman (PACMLS, October 19, 2026). Sold prices were closer, at $487,500 for 140 Moscow closings from April 2 to October 1, 2026 and $449,500 for 136 Pullman closings from April 17 to October 16, 2026. These come from two different MLS feeds, so they are not directly pooled.
Jordan's Moscow guide describes Moscow as sitting on US 95 about eight miles east of Pullman along the Moscow-Pullman Highway. The Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport describes itself as within 5 minutes of both downtown Pullman and downtown Moscow, per the airport's own description. Drive times vary with traffic and weather.
Jordan's Palouse guide cites Rome2rio, which lists the road distance from Pullman at about 15 miles, roughly 20 minutes of driving, and from Moscow at about 14.6 miles, roughly 19 minutes, as of October 12, 2026.
Jordan's Colfax guide describes Colfax as about 16 miles south of Pullman on US 195, roughly a 19 minute drive without stops as of September 17, 2026. It lists Moscow, Idaho at about 25 miles, roughly 33 minutes by car through Pullman, as of September 18, 2026.
Jordan's Garfield guide reports the town's own chart, which lists Pullman at 26 miles and Moscow at 25 miles, each about 30 minutes, and Spokane at 58 miles, about 1 hour.
As of October 19, 2026, PACMLS showed 5 active site built homes in Garfield with list prices from $260,000 to $569,000 and a median list price of $359,000. Four site built Garfield homes closed from June 3, 2026 through September 25, 2026 with a median sold price of $252,500, which is too small a sample to treat as a trend.
As of October 12, 2026, PACMLS showed 6 active site built homes in Palouse with list prices from $290,000 to $650,000 and a median list price of $447,500. The 20 Palouse homes that closed from April 24, 2026 through October 1, 2026 had a median sold price of $391,000.
Moscow offers the most inventory outside Pullman, with 58 active listings in IMLS. Colfax had 18 active listings in September, with prices from $139,900 to $820,000 in Jordan's guide, so the range is wide. Palouse and Garfield are small markets with 6 and 5 active site built homes, so one or two listings can move the median. If you are comparing towns, look at the price range and the number of closings along with the median.
Because Moscow listings are on IMLS and the other towns are on PACMLS, a single search may not show all of them. I can set up a property search that covers both sides of the state line.
