I saw a cute Lynnwood rambler today that had been just about completely remodeled – it was in a great location close to Trader Joe’s and the Interurban Trail, but also tucked back quietly in a cute neighborhood. I love this time of year for looking at houses because you can really tell who keeps up with their home and who doesn’t just by looking at the lawn maintenance. Of course I have a ton of weeding to do out there right now so maybe I should not go there! My point is that this house was priced well under $300,000 and had a lot of really great features – there are some amazing buys right now for Lynnwood homes and the amenities around this Northern Seattle suburb have improved greatly in recent years.

Here are some of the great places to shop, eat, or go to in or very close to Lynnwood:

Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, Sears, Target, Olive Garden, The Rock, Pottery Barn, REI, Macy’s, Nordstrom, PF Chang, Williams-Sonoma (my mother has always said that if you are going to look for a great place to live in or around a new city then you should just look for a Pottery Barn, Starbuck’s, or William-Sonoma because they have already done the research for you!). Barnes & Noble, Nordstrom Rack, Babies R Us, Toys R Us, Michael’s, Dania, Wight’s, more!

Today might seem like a great day to go out and look at houses, and please do by all means get out there and go look, but don’t make a buying decision today. It is absolutely too perfect of a day to decide whether or not to buy a house! We wait all year it seems for a day like today! My morning tour was just amazing and the weather definitely helps to sell even an ugly little house, but luckily I saw a fabulous house!

Highlighted Seattle Suburbs:

Shoreline, WA: Shoreline is really close in to Seattle and a great place for schools, parks, and more! Shoreline real estate

Lynnwood, WA: Properly priced Lynnwood real estate is really moving right now! This city is also celebrating its 50^th birthday with lots of events all year long.

The Seattle suburb of Lynnwood, Washington is turning 50 years old and kicking off a year-long celebration with 50 events! This is going to be a wonderful year of fun events! Lynnwood is already such a great place to call home – easy commuting in all directions, close to the Puget Sound and Lake Washington for fun, tons of shopping and restaurants, more movie theatres than you can count, new amazing transit centers, Interurban Trail connecting it to Mountlake Terrace, Shoreline, and Seattle plus North to Everett, brand new high school about to open, and more! In addition it is one of the closer in Seattle Suburbs that also just happens to be affordable! Lynnwood offers housing in every range and is a very easy choice if you are looking for a combination of just about everything you want.

Some Lynnwood, Washington Home Stats (Residential not Lynnwood Condos):

There are currently 348 Lynnwood homes for sale in the residential category of the NWMLS. They range in price from $120,000 to $965,000. These houses for sale start with two bedrooms and go all the way up to a seven bedroom home. The median listing price for a Lynnwood house right now is $364,944 and the average price is $395,578. Right now there are 135 Lynnwood houses under contract and pending in the MLS in some way shape or form. They range in price from $165,000 to $599,950. Closed sales is a great way to see how busy Lynnwood real estate really is. In the last six months, the Lynnwood real estate market has had 225 closed residential home sales! Could that have anything to do with first time home buyer tax credits? Closed sold Lynnwood homes range in listing price from $150,000 to $750,000 with final sales prices that range from $157,000 to $623,000. That sentence alone should give you an idea that sellers are willing to pay your closing costs (look at that first number in both listing price and selling price), and they are willing to negotiate on price.

Let’s look at Lynnwood Condos, too:

There are currently 203 Lynnwood condominiums on the market right now. They range in price from a very affordable $107,900 to $435,000 and in square footage from 590 to a very roomy 2678 square feet and one to four bedrooms. There are 64 Lynnwood condos on the market that are pending in some way and range from price of $97,900 to $409,950. The closed numbers on condos here are also good. In the last six months there have been 101 closed Lynnwood condo properties in the MLS. They range from list price of $124,000 to $395,950 and final sales price of $115,000 to $390,000.

The numbers don’t lie: Lynnwood Washington is obviously moving real estate.
