Seattle Residential: I Do That

Ravenna-Roosevelt May 2011 Market Report

Ravenna-Roosevelt May 2011 Market Report

The 16 closings in May was double that of the 8 closings of residential property in the Ravenna and Roosevelt neighborhoods of Seattle during April. Surely a good sign that the people who took the plunge actually made it to the closing table.  Active listings have been pretty steady for the past three months coming in currently at 33 . We still could use more inventory in these neighborhoods. There are buyers out there looking for homes.
