Waterfront Home Sales on The Eastside Surge, Then Slow a Bit

Waterfront real estate sales this summer on the Eastside have been far stronger than in 2009. June sales were particularly outstanding, with July showing a slight downturn which wasn't unexpected after the early summer burst, matching the rest of the market in Greate Seattle.
Picture
Thirteen significant Eastside waterfront home sales on Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish closed in June, and four more lakefront sales closed this July. Compare that to 2009 which had just 7 similar sales in June and 3 in July. So far, the summer of 2010 is turning out to be a boon to waterfront buyers, as a portion of the selling market is getting realistic about the correction in luxury and real estate prices. Many waterfront homes have now been priced at a level that fits the current market, and transactions are moving forward at a better pace than the past two years.
The most recent sales were a $1.6 million home on Lake Sammamish waterfront in Sammamish, a $1.782 million protected waterfront home on South Bellevue's canals in Newport Shores, a $1.8 million West of Market lakefront home in Kirkland, and a $5.5 million waterfront estate in exclusive Hunts Point.
