Seattle, WA Real Estate News

2022 started out the year with both historically low interest rates and record low inventory.  This created a very hot (seller’s) market across the NWMLS and the Greater Seattle condo market.  For example, 2021 ended with the Freddie Mac 30 year fixed rate of 3.05% and NWMLS had 0.40 months of housing inventory.  In comparison, at the end of 2022, Freddie Mac 30 year interest rate was 6.42% and inventory was at 2.09 months.  Thus the real estate market changed drastically over the course of the year.  Nevertheless, the condo market had modest increases at year end.  Across the NMWLS, condo prices were up 1.15% in December 2022 compared to December 2021.  In addition, for the year, 2022 median prices finished above the previous year.Looking at the Seattle condo market, where the vast maj...

Seattle Landlord Victory: First-Come, First-Served Law Struck Down I am pleased to announce that King County Superior Court Judge Susanne Parisien has struck down the first-come, first-served law adopted by Seattle City Council in 2016. The ruling means Seattle must immediately stop enforcing the law adopted by City Council as it has been found to violate the state constitution. The law required landlords to choose among qualified applicants based on a first-come, first served basis, meaning that the landlord needed to choose the first applicant who met the landlord-set criteria rather than choosing the best applicant that met the landlord-set criteria. The Judge said, "choosing a tenant is a fundamental attribute of property ownership". The reason I am so relieved and excited to hear ...

Sand Point Country ClubThe gated and sought after Sand Point Country Club is interesting in that homes rarely come up for sale in it.  Residents know what a good thing they have and as a result many change hands privately if at all and never benefit from the open market that listing them could offer.  Last year alone less than ten Sand Point Country Club Homes for sale sold according to the MLS. Platted in the 1920s, this oval shaped platted neighborhoods is truly one of NE Seattle's best kept secrets! It is an adorable private enclave overlooking the golf course, Lake Washington, and the Cascades with many  view homes. It is a fabulous Seattle view home option because of it well appointed plat on the hill over the gold course.Sand Point Country Club is a neighborhood that offers "the g...
