Looking for Belltown Gallery Auction Results? The Gallery Auction has long been one of Belltown's most anticipated events. It was astounding to witness the sheer volume of dollars that were spent on these places!
Gallery Auction results surprising for many! It was extremely interesting to see the mass exodus of hopeful would be Gallery Auction bidders who thought they might get a steal. There were some good deals last night, but nothing I couldn't have negotiated up front in a normal purchase and sale without the pressure of the auction itself. It just goes back to my earlier statement: "Do not be afraid to put in an offer that may not be socially acceptable." In the case of the Gallery before the auction, they may have taken it based on auction result numbers I saw last night.
So here are the Gallery Auction results as I recorded them personally, so I should put in a disclaimer that I am human and may have made a mistake. By the way, these are in auction bid order:

*In my opinion, the winning bidder for unit 721 probably got one of the best deals of the day. Although the unit is right next to the owner's lounge and I have heard that there is quite a bit of horizontal sound traveling in Gallery, this was a phenomenal price to get into that location!
*** At this point, I had to accompany my bidder out of the room, but I will update later with results from the last four auction results.
Gallery Auction Results Wrap Up -
Overall, I would say Gallery raked in far more dollar per square foot than I would expect them to have. I would say this proves that Seattle real estate is alive and well and that Belltown real estate is still moving! The condo market has definitely changed and we will be seeing more of these types of sales in my opinion based on the backlog of inventory.

Great wrap up Courtney! I think your take on "socially acceptable" lower offers is a good one and without the hype of the auction atmosphere, it's possible you could have negotiated a better deal for your client. But it IS great to see that the event was successful and there's good demand out there if the price is right!
