Regardless, I thought you might like a street-level view of the housing bubble from one of these purchasers &#8211; namely, me.<\/p>\n<p>At the peak (2006) this house sold for 305k.  That&#8217;s quite a discount for Seattle, even for a government owned home.<\/p>\n<p>I sold a house in Wallingford in 2009 that I owned for 10 years (through Redfin) and socked the money away ($290k in 2000, $475k sale price after much effort) and now own a home mortgage-free.  West Seattle\/Highland Park sure isn&#8217;t Wallingford, but free-and-clear sure isn&#8217;t a $250k mortgage, either.<\/p>\n<p>At the while, friends questioned my choices (why sell &#8211; it&#8217;s worth so much, all the way to why sell &#8211; it&#8217;s worth so much less). I do feel that I was very close to the heart of the bubble.<\/p>\n<p>I certainly didn&#8217;t &#8216;want&#8217; to sell my Wallingford home, any more than a person deeply underwater wants to lose theirs.  But at some point, the numbers don&#8217;t lie, and it&#8217;s the best\/smartest thing to do at a given time in one&#8217;s life.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Great story.
