Seattle Area Waterfront Home Sales Rise 37% in June

Sales of Seattle-area waterfront homes soared in June, adding some health to one sector of the real estate market. Sales of waterfront homes in King County rose from 37 in May to 59 for the month of June. While waterfront real estate sales always rise with the summer weather, this increase was more than the usual cyclical increase.

Total sales increased 37% versus the previous month, and were up 14% versus the same month in 2010. Waterfront and luxury homes are many times a leading factor for the industry, and can signal the increase of investor confidence in a real estate market.
