By Joshua Wood, LPC

Last updated on Jun 03, 2023

Summary: The most desirable neighborhoods in Seattle, United States are Ballard, Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, and West Seattle. The average cost to buy a nice 2 bedroom home in Seattle is around $600,000, while a nice 3 bedroom home is around $800,000. These properties typically include modern amenities such as stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors, and updated bathrooms. Foreign ownership of properties in Seattle is allowed, however, there may be restrictions depending on the type of property and the country of origin. An expat looking to buy a home in Seattle should start by researching the different neighborhoods and their amenities. They should also consider their budget and the type of property they are looking for. Additionally, they should consult with a real estate agent to help them find the best property for their needs.

How do I find a place to live in Seattle?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"When looking for a place to live in Seattle, it is important to consider your budget, desired location, and amenities. Start by researching neighborhoods that fit your needs and budget. Consider the commute to work, access to public transportation, and proximity to parks, restaurants, and other attractions. Once you have narrowed down your search, you can use online resources such as Zillow, Trulia, and HotPads to find available rental properties. You can also contact local real estate agents to help you find the perfect place to call home," remarked one member in Seattle.
