Is a $200K Milwaukee house similar to a $600K Seattle house? Ouch!

Asked Sun Apr 27 2008, 21:06 by Michael - Seattle - Market Conditions - 9 answers

Kim Meyer answered:

Hi Michael,
I am originally from Wisconsin and am still familiar with the marketplace there with family and friends still living throughout the state. I have lived in Seattle for the past 20 years and can say that yes it is true that the housing prices would be so different. If you find a home near or around Redmond for $600K you would be doing very well. It is a great time to buy in the Seattle area as prices have come down a bit and buyer's actually can take time to house hunt and not have to be crazy about sbumitting an offer overnight. However, properties that are priced well still sell in less than 30 days, especially around the Microsoft/Google areas. Hopefully your salary would see an increase as we have remained strong as a tech sector in the marketplace, and with Google, Amazon and others making their headquarters here, it opens a great path for additional career opportunities. - Mon Jun 2 2008, 14:47

Open Opinion Thread: "Why should someone buy in this market?"

Asked Wed Apr 16 2008, 15:41 by Ryan - Chicago - General Area - 2392 answers

Kim Meyer answered:

I agree there are a tremendous amount of opinions in the marketplace. To find true hard facts for the area you are moving to is the best way to make a wise decision. Different markets in the nation will reach their lows and recovery at different times. Remember the media tends to focus only on negative news, which is keeping a lot of people on the sidelines, even in Seattle!

Here are some economic facts for our nation as a whole:
1. Rates are very low in a Buyer's market - 1973 was the last time rates were this low in a Buyer's market. A good inventory and low rates make 2008 a great year to purchase.

2. Real Estate is Cyclical.

3. Six Million Americans are expected to buy a home this year. (that is the level experienced in 1998)

4. Home ownership is still a strong basis for wealth in our country. (Over 23 trillion of value in US housing stock)

Best wishes for your move. - Mon Jun 2 2008, 14:32
