The median home value in Seattle was still hovering around $400,000 at press time, and for those who think prices for houses in that range will drop much more, consider this: According to the Washington Center for Real Estate Research, the available inventory for houses priced $250,000 to $500,000 was stabilizing last fall, which suggests values might do the same.
