Sammamish

It’s no wonder this picturesque Seattle suburb was able to snag the second spot on our list. Sammamish was named the 15th best place to live by “CNN Money” in 2011, and “Forbes” deemed it the friendliest town in America in 2012.

Possibly the youngest city on our list, having only been in incorporated in 1999, Sammamish is made up of residents who are proud of their neighborhoods and want to have a say in the management of their town. Sammamish landed on Neighborhood Scout’s list of Top 100 Safest Cities in the U.S. and proudly reported no murders and only one robbery in 2012.

With interest rates still at an all-time low and prices still affordable is now the right time to buy?  This is a question many of my clients are now starting to ask themselves.  Two of my clients in the past month have decided to purchase instead of rent as with rent prices climbing and interest rates so low they actually found it cheaper to purchase than to rent.  With rates still around 3.75 one can purchase a home with minimal down and payments still lower than rent.  There is also a unique opportunity to be able to purchase an investment property and have your home bring you a positive cash flow.  If you are interested in investing or just purchasing a home to call your own, please feel free to give me a call and I would be happy to discuss…
