Let’s check in again on the cheapest homes around Seattle proper. Ideally this should be a monthly series, but somehow it was overlooked last month. For methodology and a brief explanation of the reasoning behind this series, hit the April post.
Please note: These posts should not be construed to be an advertisement or endorsement of any specific home for sale. We are merely taking a brief snapshot of the market at a given time. Also, just because a home makes it onto the “cheapest” list, does not indicate that it is a good value.
Here are this month’s three cheapest single-family homes in the city limits of Seattle (according to Redfin):
Address | Price | Beds | Baths | SqFt | Lot Size | Neighborhood | $ / SqFt | Notes |
10044 10th Ave SW | $144,950 | 1 | 1 | 520 | 7,620 sqft | White Center | $279 | – |
8523 Dallas Ave S | $151,200 | 2 | 1 | 900 | 3,480 sqft | South Park | $168 | Bank-Owned |
7525 14th Ave SW | $155,000 | 3 | 1 | 1,580 | 6,000 sqft | Delridge | $98 | – |
There were a few houseboats that showed up in my SFH search that were cheaper than these three, as well as a couple “fixer-uppers” of the more extreme variety. All three of April’s featured cheapest homes are no longer on the market, but according to Redfin, none of them actually sold, either.
