Some parts of the market in the greater Seattle area may be slowing down, but nobody told the condo developers in Puyallup<\/a>:<\/p>\n

After several years of public investment in downtown Puyallup, private money is now pouring into multilevel condominiums around Pioneer Park.<\/p>\n

It appears to be money well spent. Some units are expected to sell for around $500,000.<\/p>\n

"When we started, we were not predicting prices that high," condo developer Bill Schuur said. "It’s clear that there’s a strong housing market in downtown Puyallup."<\/p>\n

In recent years, Puyallup has brought pedestrians and shoppers back downtown with its new library, farmers market and businesses that have replaced empty storefronts. But some say a sure sign of downtown revitalization is when people choose to live there.<\/p>\n

"Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma \u2013 everybody is moving downtown," said Tony Benson, 52, who was having early dinner with his wife, Julie, at a picnic table at Pioneer Park on a recent afternoon. "That’s the way to the future."
…
Developers say the demand shows no sign of abating.<\/p>\n

"Our experience in marketing Pioneer Park Condominiums tells us, anecdotally, that demand will continue to increase, and prices will rise steadily," Cochrane said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Demand never<\/em> decreases, and prices never<\/em> decline. Nope. Not ever.<\/p>\n
