Home Inspector Licensing has happened to Washington State.
I for one am excited about it. I see it as a starting point for turning what, up until now, would best be described as a, “rag-tag band of alpha-wolves roaming the local real estate” into an ACTUAL profession.

Question: I'm trying to find out how many homes in seattle are on the market (price range between $850-$1,000,000 and based on # of homes, how many sell in this price range on a month to month basis, to determine the average marketing time for this price range. Example if there are 100 homes for sale in Seattle and there are 10 sales per month, that would equal a 10 month supply in this price range. Is this data available, publicly? Property I'm looking at is in Magnolia. Thanks
