North Seattle leads with Pending home sales

North Seattle had the highest amount of homes go under contract last week with 18% going pending of the five areas that I track for my blog. Bellevue had at least one home go under contract in each price range, even in the higher price ranges. The Red areas are considered Sellers markets. What does you area look like?
