local real estate news, statistics, and commentary without the sales spin.
Let’s check out the three price tiers for the Seattle area, as measured by Case-Shiller. Remember, Case-Shiller’s “Seattle” data is based on single-family home repeat sales in King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. Note that the tiers are determined by sale volume. In other words, 1/3 of all sales fall into each tier. For more details…
Let’s have a look at the latest data from the Case-Shiller Home Price Index. According to October data, Seattle-area home prices were: Down 0.2% September to October. Up 5.7% YOY. Down 26.3% from the July 2007 peak Last year prices fell 1.0% from September to October and year-over-year prices were down 6.2%. Nothing surprising here….
Assuming Case-Shiller is posted tomorrow, I’ll be here with your regularly-scheduled post. It just might show up a little later in the day than usual.
This poll was active 12.23.2012 through 12.29.2012
