Home Hunt: The Re-evaluated Top 3

After offer #1 and looking at a total of well over 50 or 60 properties in at least 6 very different neighborhoods across the Seattle/Bellevue metropolitan area, I've learned quite a bit! And I'm excited because I had a very successful home hunting tour tonight. Two new places I checked out tonight have now made it to the Top 3! Here's what we've got so far.

#1 - 45th Ave condo near the Alaska Junction (2 bed/2 bath). This one has the best location and by far the best view of the Puget Sound, the Olympic Mountains and West Seattle. AND it's the only one with 2 baths that fit all my criteria. http://www.redfin.com/WA/Seattle/4540-45th-Ave-SW-98116/unit-303/home/55882


#2 - Admiral Junction condo off California Ave (2 bed/1 bath). This one feels more like a house w/ a front yard and three of the four walls having windows, has really high ceilings, with VERY nice layout and decorating it is by far the most Move-In-Ready. Location is still AMAZING, I'm just more partial to the Alaska Junction than the Admiral Junction because they've got better restaurants... I know... picky.



#3 - Fauntleroy condo (2 bed/1 bath). This one's advantage is the price all the way, it also has a very nice layout and some very cute features to it. Location is still very good, just not as good as the others.

    I like all three of these better than the others you've shown on your blog. And restaurants seriously? :)

    Another thought - the layout of the second one is sort strange, but think of how little you'd have to do to make it your style. And a front yard is pretty darn cool. And I loved how you waved and laughed at yourself in the mirror. So Jessie.
