market

Greenlake is not what I'd call inexpensive. Quite the opposite really. However, Greenlake is also a blue-chip neighborhood. Rent is high and market volatility is low. A safe neighborhood to invest or live. Now that the market has cooled a bit you do not need to worry about homes being competitive. You can even think about contingent offers if your dream is to live in Greenlake..
What to expect

Great think about Greenlake is the inventory. Greenlake has a little bit of everything to fit every budget. From 80 year old townhouses, new estates, and young condos. Whatever fits your taste, budget or needs can be found. South to Mid-Greenlake is the most expensive. North Greenlake and West Greenlake is where you can find more value for the dollar.
real talk

Let's face it. Greenlake is one of the most expensive neighborhoods in Seattle. Greenlake can also be VERY congested, especially in the summer. You really have to be okay with folks milling around the neighborhood really at all hours. If that's cool with you then you'll love living here.
