Realogics Sotheby's International Realty recently released a Waterfront Update that examines regions across Puget Sound and highlights popular waterfront communities with information regarding home values, sales trends and market activity. The report is centered around price trends and the typical location factors that affect the value of any real estate. Waterfront sales, however, may also be influenced by other aquatic factors including docks, moorage, beach or tidelands access, and more.
