First, Washington is known as the evergreen state; we have more green area spaces and suburbs than those states you mention. I lived in Washington for 20+ years, grew up in the Bellevue area, then lived in Renton, Puyallup, and Federal Way. I also live in NY, LA. Bellevue has been expensive since the 80s. One of the reasons why people are going to that area is because Bellevue isn't going to settle for the crap Seattle is putting up with. Bellevue will have more IT and software business growth, more housing, better schools, and more crime response. People live in Bellevue for a better, well-balanced lifestyle.

What? An agent that values saving their buyer's $ is a fresh breath👍

Seattles the 1 city in America

Any affordable housing options in the Seattle metro area? I want to move there in about 4 months and am looking to transfer my Section 8 housing voucher from California.

Monica, do you eating any Italian or Mexican Cuisine for lunch or dinner? It’s really good!!!

Been there February 2019. Thank you for the info.😊 i enjoyed my stay in Seattle, Washington State

Great video!

It's crazy to see how much Sammamish and Issaquah have exploded since the 90's. My grandma's family founded Issaquah in the 1860's and she always comments on how much it has changed, even since she was raising kids (back then, Issaquah was kind of a small farming town, and she was literally related to half the residents). She and my grandpa were priced out back in 1994. The schools there are great though!

Cops are assholes, everyone in Samammish drives like assholes and are stuck up. There isn’t any good restaurants, you have to go to Bellevue to eat, and even then, finding parking in Bellevue is tough. The only thing cool about Sammamish is the Metropolitan Market 😂

Hey Monica, Hope you are doing well. My husband and I are looking to buy an apartment in Seattle and nearby areas. How can we get in touch with you?

What a unique and fun listing...

The sock situation 😅

Beautiful home :) love these vifs

Churchyyy back in criminal seattle of flawshington fishtate

Lower Queen Anne can get loud late at night

She not from Seattle😂 Never seen her before. She grew up in Bothell or Redmond, maybe Issaquah but definitely not Seattle😂 Outskirts always try to claim they from Seattle, n grew up in Tacoma😂

Hey, Monica, is Amtrak gonna pass by? Some passengers are on a sightseeing lounge, while on their trip.

A comment to help engagement 👍

Gorgeous home!

Thanks for sharing

Seattle=Graffiti and homelessness. Downtown is a dive. The politics of these hippies in charge are pipe dreams. They are ID10T’s

I love your real estate videos

Monica bought a Y? Good move.

I want to buy some land and have a custom built cabin home. Is it common for WA buyers to purchase land and have a custom built home? And is there any rules what style house can be built?

First

I'm an admin at one of our local real estate offices. Love your videos. I'd like to encourage more of my agents to use video in their marketing and possibly starting a youtube channel. Great content! Cheers from Montana!

"Care more" (or care less about others, particularly the poor)?

Of course it's still there. Do see how much money they make there every day?

It use to be my hang spot.

i live in the seattle area also, and i just keep getting mezmorized everytime i look at the space needle. Seriously, the feeling of looking at that tall of a building just makes me happy.

😂monica is💯on seattle v bellevue

Ah yes... high priced homes, high crime, high drug use, and even higher taxes. Perfect.

So clunky. This is when a spec house builder thinks he’s a designer or architect.

I love homegrown, but it's ridiculously overpriced.

❤😍

Summer in Seattle = 3 months a year. All the rest of the year is gray and boring.

Hdi m3a zayd lacheddek ay7wik 😅

Bro what about the gum wall

Expensive???? You moved here and didn't research that? Is your degree in "shoe repair"? Watch the video done by local tv station, its titled" Is Seattle Dying", YUP

The home to the late Ronald Reagan Jr Ivar Haugland and basketball legend Shawn Kemp #40 If you can afford it, EASILY one of the most sought after places to live in Washington, (+Madison Park, Clyde Hill,)

It rains here every day. No one you know would ever want to move here. Got it?

Hi monica,please find me a way to contact you personally,i want to buy a business site,can you please help me

I live really close to settle and there is some weird shit in this area

Seattle Ceenter used to have an amusement park up till around the late 80's or so. Was a great place for people to go to. Now it's just boring.

You moved from LA to seattle because of taxes lol lateral motion

Can a ghost throw up? Now I'm curious.

THE WEIRDEST THING IS THAT NEEDLE TOWER IS IN THE MOVIE LAST OF US (animation kind)

#ILoveLA ... Washington State has NO income tax BUT THEY GET U in many other ways making many things far more expensive than in Calif. Washington State has a tax law that has Service Labor Taxed. & that is just 1 example

500k for one-bedroom apartment? Nice!

Seattle had a great vibe until 2015. Then, Amazon came in and ruined the city and lost its soul. Such a shame.
