March 2008 exhibited a marked improvement for downtown Seattle condo values with the median price rising to $525,000, a 13.3% increase over the same period last year and a 39.6% jump over February.  

The good news in property values is tempered by a significant rise in the number of active listings to 343, a 51% increase compared to March 2007.   Although pending sales are down, the downtown area has the second lowest decline in pendings at -11%, while closed sales increased 25%.   The absorption rate now stands at 6 months.
