Seattle ninth-best U.S. market for home sellers: Report

Seattle is the ninth-best market in the country for homeowners selling their home, according to a new report.Market Trend

This is great news if you are thinking if selling your home anytime soon, and another reason to jump in if you’re buying!

According to Zillow Inc. reports that only home sellers in eight other U.S. cities have more leverage than Seattle home sellers. Zillow describes a seller’s market as one where homes are on the market for a shorter time, price cuts occur less frequently and homes are sold at prices very close to (or greater than) their last listing price.

In markets like Seattle, “sellers … are squarely in the driver’s seat with their homes selling within days of listing, often after bidding wars that increase the sale price above the asking price,” said Stan Humphries, Zillow chief economist, in a statement.
