hello, as a seattle investor i caution you to invest in this market right now if cash flow is your strategy. you will be hard pressed to find anything that cashflows that is in an area that makes sense and has a quality tenant base. you may do good on appreciation over the next year or so, but a correction is looming and seattle is a highly cyclical makers, the highs are  high but the lows are low. also, as stated above many times, seattle is on of the most tenant friendly cities putting an addition burden on investors/landlords.
