Here she is… Miss Tacoma… The Most Expensive House to Sell in 2008 (so far!)
This house was on Ventura Drive in Narrows area. It has 4 Bedrooms, 3.5 Bathrooms, and 5,240 Square Feet. It has an inground pool with some pretty amazing views of the water, and an outdoor kitchen.
It sold for $1,645,000. It was listed for $1,850,000 and was on the market 200 days. There were 7 houses and 1 condo that sold for more than $1 Million Dollars in Tacoma this year. They spent an average of 148 days on the market and sold for an average of 92.5% of their list prices.
I ran the same search for homes under $100,000. There were 38 houses and 5 condos that sold under $100k this year, and most of them actually looked pretty habitable. If you’re curious to see them, email me and I’ll email you a list.
This is the winner though, at only $55,300. It sold after 511 days on the market after initially being listed for $121,999. It is 1 Bedroom, 1 Bath, with 414 square feet.
On average, homes under $100k sold for 87.62% of their currently listed price and took an average of 119 days to sell.
As an honorable mention I am including this Bank Owned House as well, which sold for $37,500. It’s pretty much a tear down though, so I thought the other one was the more fair winner. It was on .30 acres though, which makes it a pretty awesome deal IMHO.
So there you have it! Just an fyi, there are currently 37 houses & 11 condos LISTED in the City of Tacoma for more than $1 Million Dollars. There are also 26 houses and 3 condos listed for under $100k. You looky loos are welcome to email me for a list.
