  There definitely is a sweet spot in features and pricing where homes in Seattle are selling. Sellers often start to discount after their home has been on the market for 30-45 days, and the trend seems to be further discounts ever 30-45 days thereafter.

  Quoted: There are times you can be aggressive, but they're not as common as people think," Kelman said. "If a house hasn't been on the market for a long time, a large discount just isn't going to happen."
  "Things in the high or low price range tend to sit," Kelman said. "Things in the middle tend to be snapped up." Anecdotally, that means Seattle houses with three or more bedrooms, priced between $500,000 and $800,000, generally are speedy sellers.
