MLS Watch. Increases at Noma

March 5th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Here is what has been going on for the last five days…

Random action

1009 Western Ave #1102 (Waterfront Place) - $750k. No doubt the views are spectacular but what does the inside look like? I also don’t getting this marketing comment: Sold for over $50K LESS than the market value! Update: Marie at Redfin Sweet Digs blogged about this unit too.

505 Belmont Ave E #502 is a 720 square foot unit that just came on the market at $375,000 in one of Seattle’s first condominium complexes originally built in the ’60s. On Sunday I had dinner in a penthouse unit in it’s sister building to the north. The view from #502 is certainly nice but the view from the 11th floor of the other building was spectacular. Update: Marie at Redfin Sweet Digs blogged about this unit too.

More price reductions in South Lake Union. Still 26 active listings.

Lots of units coming on the market. Find the 10 on the MLS. Notable action at the building this week is unit #305’s increase $10k to $334,950.

    What’s the psychology behind price increases for something that’s been on the market almost 2 years? I know those Harvard townhomes are super-nice, but seriously? If it hasn’t sold at $1.9m is it going to sell at $1.95?

    What were they thinking?

    I have no idea. I’d love to here some of the agents’ thoughts on it though.
