Our May 2009 Seattle Metro Area Market Stats Report is ready for viewing!
We go directly to the county database when we gather our statistics. This way, we can account for every transfer of ownership rather than just those listed via the local multiple listing service. Our Talon Market Stats report uses the following criteria for reflecting monthly sales:
- Current use code of single family homes. (look for a condo sales report in the near future!)
- The sales price is greater than 35% of the assessed value. (eliminates quit claims with no monetary consideration and other like transfers)
- Sale dates are recorded and reported by the county within the reports time-frame.
For more detailed information, please contact our friendly Property Information department.
