  • Hey its another stat on why our market is unusually "strong".
  • I think that they may have used the link below as a reference for overall strength of the metro area... If you notice Seattle is #2 and Miami is not even mentioned http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m ... _n21053702

  • http://www.redfin.com/WA/Seattle/6204-2 ... ome/308242 It looks like a nice house and all, but nearly doubling the price in 6 months...

  • Not sure what happened here? http://www.redfin.com/WA/Seattle/6019-M ... ome/305804 Current price $720,000 - below 2004 prices, on the better side of Greenlake. Dec 07, 1993 $124,950 -- Oct 19, 1995 $290,000 57.1%/yr Dec 15, 1998 $27…
  • Where were these realtors during the bubble? I understand that they aren't stupid, they take the money when they can and become a "financial advisor" when their revenue stream is affected, but advising a seller to delist, as a policy that is not sel…
  • If I read it right, this would cap the banks risk of RE-FI ing at 85% of original price? This is interesting and would probably help out a decent percentage of owners outside of Fl, Nv, Oh, MI and Cali... In all I don't care what they do as lo…
  • Hey King county homes busted through 13K, at least someones trying to do something about that.

  • Just a heads up, this post in Seattle PI RE blogs http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/real ... 139464.asp Basically talking about the new law that goes into effect soon here in Washington. Be aware of potentially negative repercussions of bu…

  • Umm... someones proud of something? Year Built: 1984 Sep 13, 1993 $220,000 -- Nov 30, 1995 $235,000 3.0%/yr Feb 28, 2003 $383,150 7.0%/yr Apr 03, 2006 $508,000 9.5%/yr 2008 Price: $849,950 40K higher than the high Zestimate htt…
