Manage episode 418544863 series 2630762
It is no surprise that it’s hard to buy a house in Seattle, but it's gotten even harder for many as interest rates and housing prices have sored. That means would-be home buyers are increasingly leaving the city, the metro area, and sometimes even the state.
Seattle Times journalist Paul Roberts breaks down the trend and explains the calculus homebuyers are making.
