What about Seattle?
A year ago, the pandemic kicked in. There was a mass exodus from our beloved Seattle! Residents, business owners, community leaders alike, in the hopes of protecting family and loved ones, changed the way they lived, worked, and communicated. There was a struggle for some, but there was also a creative revolution for others.
As our beloved Seattle rebuilds.....and, mind you, Seattle is in high demand....consider finding your niche within the revolutionized city, and surrounding areas. There are a lot of great areas within Seattle, and surroundings, that offer great potential for your craft/trade/profession. There are warehouses in Georgetown, bakeries in Tangletown, pubs in Wedgewood, and hostels in Downtown ripe for the picking! You may have your own store on Etsy, or you may be building cabinets in your garage.....why not jump into the fray and be a part of your city, your community?
Lease prices are low right now, purchase prices are always negotiable.....and if you have a product that would be great for Seattle, this is the time to dive into the deep end.....what do you think?

Hello Facebook Friends!

There are advantages to selling in this real estate market.
1. After you sell and pay off your loan, you will have a huge chunk of money with which to reinvest. This allows you to pay off debts, or to jump into one of the surrounding puget sound areas where you can purchase more home for a lower price.
2. With interest rates at historic lows, buyers are paying more money in principal, at higher listing prices, than they could afford to do at any other time. Earn more than you could've last year or the year before that with a sale this year!
3. Often times, homeowners simply purchased what they could afford, and where they could afford it, when they first jumped into the real estate purchase market. As time goes, needs change.....you can sell now and use the proceeds to upgrade to a community and home that best suits your desires today!

This home is the best deal in a very active West Seattle market. I don't get a lot of these anymore, maybe 1 every couple of years? It's livable, but it needs some updating and appliances. It's in the Arbor Heights part of West Seattle, just above the ferries and just off 35th, It sits on a large lot, a flag lot, for maximum privacy. There have been some upgrades, but with $5,000 - $10,000 worth of upgrades and appliances, the value would be easily in the mid $400,000's before the summer value increases kick in. The seller is asking $399,950, you'll be hard pressed to find anything in Seattle, livable, 2 bedrooms, for under $400,000. If you have any interest in getting into a purchase to rent out, you'd take advantage of the best interest rates of my lifetime, and you could earn a few hundred dollars in passive income with a good tenant.

Very large kitchen, just needs some final touches.....Nice wood floors that could be refinished for maximum beauty, or you can cover with carpet for an inexpensive wood floor protectant. The bathroom is simple, needs a mirror or medicine cabinet and some lighting. Gas furnace, good roof, newer paint, large driveway that could have a garage installed, also has alley access for back entrance or parking. Yard is easy to maintain and has a tiny shop for crafts or storage.

Let me know if you know of anyone in Seattle looking for a really great real estate deal!
