Seattle rent prices down significantly compared to 2020
Rents in Seattle are down significantly compared to one year ago, according to a survey by Apartment Guide.
Rent is down 18.9% for the average one-bedroom apartment at $2,056 and 30.6% for the average two-bedroom apartment at $2,698.
Experts say this has everything to do with the pandemic.
According to the Washington Center for Real Estate Research at the University of Washington, Seattle was at peak market influx at the beginning of 2020. Then people started to work from home more and looked outside the city for more space.

That's still too damn much. Been a long time since I rented.
