May Seattle Condo update

May continued to exhibit an active condo market with double digit increases in units sold city-wide. Interestingly, NE Seattle and West Seattle showed the greatest increase in unit sales, mostly attributable to a robust resale market.

City-wide, condos appreciated approximately 6% based on average sales price. However, across the board, median prices took a tumble from the prior month. Inventory has increased helping to create a buyers market, particularly with high-end properties, though I believe interest rates play a role as well. As rates continue to creep upwards, buying power decreases which move buyers to a lower price point. And, though the market has softened, sellers are receiving +/- 1% of the asking price.
