Seattle Houseboats Real Estate Market: Welcome To Summer 2014

Seattle Floating Homes For Sale Real Estate Market Summer 2014  Update:

In the last 30 days, the Seattle houseboats inventory has changed so drastically that is is worth doing a market update for the summer of 2014 Lake Union waterfront season.

Active Seattle Houseboats for sale NOW:  Currently, there are 9 Seattle floating homes for sale in the MLS. The range in listing price ($549,950 for a floating home in Fremont to $2,950,000 for one of the luxury Fairview Landing  floating homes) is quite great and there is a Seattle houseboat for sale now for every type of buyer need. The average days on market is 26 days with a range of 10 for one of the Mallard Cove floating homes to 65 days for one of the Roanoke Reef floating homes.  Square footage on these range from 600 square feet to 2150 with an average of 1275.  The average dollar per square foot for these Seattle houseboats is $918.52, but dock position and amenities such as a roof top deck or boat moorage will affect the price of all floating homes.

Our favorite of all the Seattle houseboats for sale right now is 2017 Fairview Ave E #O. This Eastlake floating home is moored on one of the most well run coops on Lake Union and this dock happens to be the furthest South in Eastlake making it  extremely desirable.  It is a 2 bedroom with a wide channel and room for your water toys. This beautiful home has been updated with great taste and is a turn key easy investment. Freshly painted and ready for another owner to love it as much as the current one does. It is listed at $675,000 and we would be happy to show it to you or any of the other Seattle houseboats on the market currently.We know the inventory and love this community. As your Brokers, we work together and would be happy to help guide you through the process of purchasing a Seattle floating home or just answer any questions you may have.
