Russell Wilson, Bill Gates and a custom McLaren

By May 1, 2024

Weekly Market Commentary

Rates in the mid-7s don’t seem to be slowing buyers down – we helped a client offer on a $1m two-bedroom home in Bryant and it had 16 offers! And it isn’t just single-family homes that are hot; we listed a two-bedroom condo in Fremont, and it had 3 offers going nearly 10% over asking. But keep in mind – of the ~2,900 homes for sale in King County, 2,100 have been on the market for 10+ days; only pockets of the market are hot.

Sorry, we don’t have photos of First Light craning a McLaren onto their pool deck, the event was canceled due to wind. But the DJC has some more details. TL;DR: buy a $5.1m penthouse, and get a custom $1.5m car “free”. Note the McLaren Elva doesn’t have a roof or windshield. Unsure if that makes sense in the PNW…
