Build property in Seattle area to escape bidding wars?

David Williams

I’m getting ready to look for my new primary residence in the Seattle area but want to avoid all the bidding wars and am fine waiting for a while.

Would it be feasible to secure land that can accommodate at least 2 homes. Once built use one home to live in and sell the other(s) to supplement the cost of the primary home?

Are the any Seattle/Renton realtors or contractors companies that specialize in this type of strategy?

Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.

If there's anything worse than bidding wars, it's the Seattle Building and Permit department.
