» Podcast featuring Glenn Crellin, Director of Washington Center for Real Estate Research, talking about the state of the real estate market in Washington

“Washington State continues to defy national trends in home prices, lending, and sales,” Washington REALTORS® recently stated in two press releases - one focusing on the west side of the state, the other on the east side. “Nationally home prices are down; sub-prime mortgages and foreclosures are up. But in Washington State, foreclosures and sub-prime lending occurred at lower rates than just about anywhere in the nation. Home appreciation in Washington also continues to out-perform the rest of the nation with year-to-year price increases every quarter since the spring of 1995.”
