Cheapest Seattle Homes: September Edition

Posted on September 4, 2009June 2, 2010 by The Tim

Let’s check in again on the cheapest homes around Seattle proper. 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, that 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
8523 Dallas Ave S $115,000 2 1 900 3,480 sqft South Park $134 Bank-Owned
9444 15th Ave SW $149,000 2 1 830 2,145 sqft Delridge $180 Probable Short Sale
526 S Concord St $154,950 1 1 530 6,000 sqft South Park $292 –

The #1 home from July’s post retained its top spot, with another $6,000 reduction in price. July’s #2 home went off the market, while #3 is still on the market at the same price ($160k).

Stats snapshot for Seattle Single-Family Homes Under $200,000
Total on market: 48
Average number of beds: 2.3
Average number of baths: 1.2
Average square footage: 1,042
Average days on market: 73

Here are the three cheapest homes in terms of dollars per square foot:

Address $ / SqFt Price Beds Baths SqFt Lot Size Neighborhood Notes
9345 7th Ave S. $74 $404,988 4 2.5 5,463 2,283 sqft South Park Short Sale
5926 S Eastwood Dr $74 $205,000 4 2.75 2,760 6,000 sqft Rainier View –
9021 10th Ave SW $97 $285,000 5 3 2,950 7,140 sqft Highland Park New Construction

July’s #3 in terms of $/sqft is still on the market, but for some reason the listing now does not mention the structure, so I removed it from the list. Also, the Eastwood Dr listing seems to have mysteriously gained 310 sqft since we last noticed it. Hmm…

Here’s the last bonus: The lowest dollars per square foot on a house priced above $500,000: 9457 10th Ave SW at $137 $/sqft. $549,888, 7 beds, 4 baths, 4,000 square feet. New construction, first listed in August of last year.
