How's The Luxury Market? Lake Forest Park vs. Northeast Seattle

Adrian Willanger: Real Estate Agent in Seattle, WA

Lake Forest Park vs. Northeast Seattle

Real Estate Market Chart by Altos Research www.altosresearch.com

Real Estate Market Chart by Altos Research www.altosresearch.com

Comparing the upper-tier segments (Lake Forest Park vs. Northeast Seattle) housing market indicates that the upper-tier segment of the Lake Forest Park market reached a 3 year low in March of 2011 while Northeast Seattle’s luxury market reached its 3 year low in late August of 2011.

Both markets have leveled off after brief upward trends (LFP 4 months, NE Seattle 3 weeks) before running out of gas in late summer of 2011.

David Stiff, Fiserv’s chief economist, says cities like Tacoma and Seattle have strong, diverse economies and should fare well over the next two years. Fiserv also reports “despite the gloomy picture for the national economy and housing market, residents of that city, on Washington’s Puget Sound, are in for a 25% increase in home prices by spring 2013.”

Will this trend move further north to Seattle and Lake Forest Park? Typically we don’t have as many sales in the 4th quarter compared to the end of the 1st quarter going into the spring market. This should be worth watching which way the upper-end housing market goes into 2012 to see if the housing recovery has legs.

North Lake Washington Waterfront Homes: Kenmore and Lake Forest Park Waterfront Real Estate Sales

Sam DeBord -  Seattle Real Estate Broker: Real Estate Agent in Seattle, WA

When reporting on Lake Washington's waterfront, some of the smaller communities sometimes fly under the radar. This is often the case with Lake Forest Park and Kenmore, both of which provide beautiful locales for waterfront living.

Four waterfront homes have been sold thusfar in 2011 in these cities. Kenmore provides some particularly inexpensive properties with access to Lake Washington, as many homes along the Sammamish river are just a short trip downstream to the lake. In addition, there are a number of traditional waterfront homes, like the $1.5 million home along the shoreline of Inglewood Golf Club that sold in March.

Lake Forest Park has a nice stretch of waterfront along Sheridan Beach, providing some surprisingly-level lots as compared to the Seattle neighborhoods directly to the South. The access from 522 makes a quick trip to either side of the lake.
