Help needed finding investment property in Seattle
We live in California and are looking to purchase an investment property in Seattle. We're originally from the area so are somewhat familiar with the city.
I know the Seattle area market there is getting ridiculous but it seems like there's still a lot of upside in property values due to tech and foreign investors. Do folks have thoughts on any of the following:
- What are some up and coming areas in Seattle that are within commute distance to Amazon / tech companies? (e.g. Beacon Hill?)
- I heard the Seattle city laws are bad for landlords - has anyone had any personal experience?
- Any recommendations for experienced agents for investors (or if you're an agent), would love to chat.
Thank you guys in advance!

Hi Peter. Seattle is becoming like SF but prices are still a fraction of the home prices in SF while salaries are quite similar. Let's chat.
