If you plan to stay in Bellevue long term, buy as soon as possible. The Seattle area's population is growing rapidly (mostly immigration it seems) and the cranes aren't keeping up.
- theatraine 12y agoSeattle is the fastest growing large American city, according to estimates from the Census bureau: http://blogs.seattletimes.com/fyi-guy/2014/05/22/census-seattle-is-the-fastest-growing-big-city-in-the-u-s/ http://blogs.seattletimes.com/fyi-guy/2014/05/22/census-seat... Seattle seems to have much better planning than SF though. There's a large amount of high density housing being built, and there's not the same restrictions on rent, or prohibitions against micro-apartments.
