Seattle one bedroom rent had virtually no change or went up more than 7 percent in the last month, depending on who you ask. But year over year, it’s a different story.

The price history on this 68-acre estate is a bit all over the place. After listing for $6.95M back in 2012, it went on and off the market at that price for a few years before coming down to $3.895M. Then it sells for $5.25M. Huh?

Mad Max: Fury Road. Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Labyrinth. If any of those movies sound like the kind of thing you'd like to watch under the stars while cozied up to someone on a picnic blanket, then you are most certainly in luck this summer.
When ST3 was unveiled, timelines like 2033 for West Seattle and 2038 for Ballard might have been better than nothing but still felt eons away. Thanks to new "financial assumptions," Sound Transit has bumped up some of their long-range deadlines.
As the informal rule goes, you shouldn't spend more than 28 percent of your gross income on your housing costs (mortgage, property taxes, etc.). That's easier said than done, especially in this housing market.
Yesterday we asked you to guess the asking price for this renovated 4-BR in Redmond. Apparently it was a real stumper because we didn't see any close guesses. So we'll just go ahead and tell you that the actual asking price is $899K.
