Some Encouragement for Buyers in the Hot Seattle Housing Market

We know it can feel like a very tough market if you’re a buyer in Seattle right now. In fact, it might feel next to impossible to buy a home. But it’s not! Buyers are out there winning offers and moving into new homes all the time, and at Sweet Living, we’re helping them do it.
Even in these market conditions, the people who are doing it right become homeowners by working with the Sweet Living squad. Our dedicated agents prepare them with winning strategies and act proactively on their behalf. The ones who aren’t serious are perpetual house hunters, and they’re the ones who are looking at listings day after day but aren’t out there winning offers and moving into new homes.
So, are you more interested in looking for a new home or living in a new home?
If the answer is the latter, it’s time to get in touch with our team.
Winning in this market CAN be done, and we've got the tome full of new homeowners to prove it. We’ve helped 48 buyers purchase new homes this year, and we’re going to keep on trucking.
In fact, we have a couple of recent success stories we want to share with you because they who just how far you can get with preparedness, determination, hard work, and a little bit of luck.
Recently, two of our agents helped a buyer get their bid accepted before the contract review date and $150,000 UNDER their budget! Not even the Brothers Grimm are writing offers like that in this market.
But it wasn't magic; it was preparation and teamwork. The buyers were ready with a mortgage pre-approval and followed our recommendations to the letter while our agents utilized their skill, expertise, and network to co-author this happily ever after.
Even when the market conditions aren't ideal, there is always something that can be done. Another buyer was bummed when their purchase didn't work out, but we went right back to work and got the client into a different contract for $20,000 BELOW asking price on a commercial property that is going to be re-zoned into an awesome condo! We can’t wait to see this one transform into a thing of beauty.
Working with our team to develop a strategy to buy a home and making sure you are thoroughly prepared goes a long way to helping you find your dream house, no matter what the rest of the market is doing. We're so thankful to have helped so many buyers get into new homes this year, and if you’re ready, we want you to be one of them!
