Seattle and Eastside home prices, after brief slowdown, surge to record highs
Home prices in Seattle have nearly doubled over the last five years, as the number of local homes for sale hits its lowest point on record.
March 7, 2017
Local home prices are surging back up again to record heights, signaling the end to the normal winter cool-down in the market.
King County’s median single-family home price was $560,000 in February, up 6.7 percent from January — the biggest one-month jump in home prices since early 2015, new data released Monday shows.

Listing Broker Co-Brokerage Addendum
As both a real estate attorney and a real estate broker, I co-broker with other brokers, helping them to take more listings and service them better. This provides better service for sellers.
Quitclaim Deeds

Buy Real Estate In Partnership
Interest rates jumped. Prices leveled off and got soft. Buyers over-reacted and stopped buying. Bad idea. It is time to be buying. You can make an offer without a dozen other buyers competing with you. So what if interest rates are up. What goes up must come down. And prices of real estate always trend upward over time.
Voltage Can Vary
Electricity can't be stored, so when I turn on a light, the power station must immediately produce some extra electricity. How is this possible?...
