Benson Hill is nice, as is Fairwood. Cascade Center, not so much. Basically, stay in the 98059 zip code (which includes Newcastle) and 98058.
There is a new small development being built just up the street from me, and they are supposed to be under $300,000. I don't know when they will be ready though.
You can even get new construction for under $300,000 in the Highlands:
Honey Brooke new construction They even claim to have a 4 car garage! It is a development of small homes though (under 1,500 square feet.) |
Sweet thanks for the advice. Renton would be an ideal halfway point for both of us
