The realtor I'm working with has been finding some good spots, though they get snatched up pretty quick. I got into a bidding war with one of them, but it all boiled down to who got their offer in first. It's a new learning opportunity for me. Funny thing is, the property owner lost a good opportunity because I was bidding over listing price, whereas the guy put in listing price all cash.
Mainly looking at 2bed/1bath. Budget is not out of the ordinary and condos have been pretty reasonably priced in the smaller towns around Seattle over the past few months. Apartment living has become more expensive than just buying property at this point.
