LUXURY MARKET T R E N D S
Luxury Luxury Lifestyle Lifestyle
MEETS MEETS
Welcome to Fall! As the leaves change this fall, changes in the luxury home market come as well. Every year, new listings tend to decrease in many of our luxury markets around this time, but our Certified Luxury Home Specialists can help you sell your home or find your dream property no matter the season. This fall, the luxury market remains strong with properties near job centers priced below $2 million dollars, while homes above $2 million have transitioned to selective sales activity. It takes a special type of broker to serve as a trusted advisor and advocate who has a deep understanding of the local luxury market. Our brokers who help clients buy and sell Exceptional Homes offer the dedication and know-how needed to market your home, negotiate your contract and ensure a successful outcome each time. When it’s the right time for you to consider buying or selling luxury property, I hope you’ll take advantage of the skill, education and diligence of our John L. Scott brokers. We also recommend reviewing current market conditions with your broker so you are equipped with the knowledge to sell or buy with confidence. In 1931, my grandfather started John L. Scott Real Estate in downtown Seattle. He had a vision of delivering concierge-level service by putting clients first. Today we’ve grown to over 110 offices and more than 3,200 broker associates in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California. We can attribute our success to the fact that, even after 87 years in the business, we still hold tight to my grandfather’s vision through our core value of “Living Life as a Contribution®” in every facet of life: at home, work and at play. At John L. Scott Real Estate, we believe our clients live exceptional lives, and they deserve Exceptional Homes. Connect with us: @JLSexceptionalhomes
