Seattle's Top Neighborhoods

Seattle’s Top 10 Neighborhoods for Price Appreciation

“Between 2015 and 2016, Seattle grew more than it has in any single year in the past century, adding nearly 90,000 new residents in just 12 months…” 

WHAT?!!!  That’s insane.  I knew Seattle was doing well (like, really well), but that’s crazy!!!  Anyway, where are all those people going?  Seattle Met put together a GREAT list (below) of their top 10.  But more than just a list, they interviewed longtime residents of each neighborhood and wrote a great little piece for each of their top 10.  Honestly, I was born and raised in Seattle so know quite a bit about each place, but I learned something new about every neighborhood in this article.  Definitely worth the read if you’re interested in learning a little more about the neighborhoods that make up one of the fastest growing cities in the country:  https://www.seattlemet.com/articles/2017/4/20/the-10-hottest-neighborhoods-in-seattle-in-2017#.WP5f3OnDhsQ.facebook

Our Sunday Tour of Bargain Homes is Very Different from a Traditional Open House



Our Sunday Tour of Bargain Homes is a great way to get an overview of what homes and features are available in your price range in your favorite Seattle neighborhoods. There is no pressure being a part of a group and you will enjoy the constructive comments of your fellow tour members. Each tour features a different Seattle neighborhood. Our next tour will be in Columbia City on November 7th.

Here is how it works: Our tours begin on selected Sundays. Each tour runs from 2-4 pm and you may meet us at any home on the tour. Tours begin at 2pm SHARP at the first house on the schedule where you will pick up detailed maps, directions and information of the featured houses. I will post the schedule of houses on the tour 3 days in advance on my Seattle Real Estate Investor blog at www.wendywonder.blogspot.com.

Meet at 6503 48th Avenue South at 2 pm to pick up maps, directions, and listings for each house on the tour. Feel free to drive by the homes before the scheduled tour times, but once the tour starts, don’t be late for the one(s) you want to preview. There will be lots of other buyers on the tour, and show times are exact. If you are interested in one of the homes on the tour, we can arrange a private showing at another time.

Tentative Schedule:

2pm: 6503 48th Ave S $269,000

2:20pm: 5714 46th Ave S $249,000

2:40pm: 5998 Rainier Ave S $275,000

3:00pm: 6801 51st Ave S $208,900

The Sunday Tours of Bargain Homes are led by Wendy Ceccherelli, Designated Broker for Home Land Investment Properties, Inc. She is an experienced real estate investor, and the tour provides valuable guidance for first time home buyers, real estate investors and other bargain house-hunters.

According to Wikipedia, “Columbia City is a neighborhood in the Rainier Valley area of southeast Seattle, Washington, known either for being one of the "hottest" neighborhoods in Seattle, or for its rapid gentrification, depending on one's perspective. It is best known for being a historic district, being one of the few parts of Seattle with genuine ethnic and income diversity (some claim that its zip code, 98118, is one of the most diverse in America) and for being an extremely walkable (having a 92% "WalkScore"[3]) and transit-oriented urban village."

You will find the Sunday Tour of Bargain Homes to be much more convenient, efficient and productive than a traditional Open House!
