SOHO Condominiums in Kirkland – Not Your Granny’s Condo
To many people, especially from the NYC area, the name “Soho” refers to a funky, creative, youth oriented area of NYC south of Houston Street.

Bellevue Towers – A “Shot in the Arm” for Bellevue
Last Thursday evening, Bellevue Towers hosted their Grand Opening celebration for current and future buyers – and what a celebration it was!

An Oasis of Elegance: Le Chateau – Bellevue, WA
Le Chateau – just the name sounds like an elegant European destination. For those “in the know” about Bellevue condominiums, it is a well kept secret.

Condominium buyers desiring to purchase in a new construction condominium often choose to do so in order to be the first owner in a never-lived-in home. One drawback is that the property may not be ready for occupancy as readily as a traditional resale property.
Downtown Bellevue Condo Absorption
I have been tracking ratios and absorption rates for downtown Bellevue condos (in addition to other eastside areas) since about August of 2006. I separate out the number of new construction from resale condominiums and have seen an interesting trend in the past several months.
Downtown Bellevue “High Life”
Ever since the completion of One Lincoln Tower – downtown Bellevue’s first high rise condominium since 1995 – the rush to be part of the “high rise” crowd has been unstoppable! It seems like many buyers have expressed interest in owning a piece of the ever expanding downtown Bellevue skyline with its exciting mix of shops, restaurants and activities.
