MARI Bellevue relaunches with 3 early sales
Create World North America has relaunched sales at MARI Bellevue, a 138-unit luxury condominium one block from Bellevue Square, and the project sold three residences in its first week back on market. With 50 homes left and pricing reset to current market levels, the 20-story tower is now 60% sold.
Why it matters: - MARI Bellevue is one of the few move-in-ready luxury condo options in downtown Bellevue. - The relaunch shows continued demand for high-end housing on the Eastside, especially for buyers seeking lock-and-leave homes near Bellevue Square. - Only 50 of the tower’s 138 residences remain, which narrows inventory for buyers looking for new construction in the area.
What happened: - Create World North America relaunched sales at MARI Bellevue on June 9, 2026. - The 138-residence boutique condominium sits one block from Bellevue Square in downtown Bellevue. - The Gwo Piña Buchanan team at Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty was appointed to lead the sellout. - MARI recorded three sales in its first week back on market. - The building is now 60% sold.
The details: - MARI Bellevue is a 20-story tower with all residences move-in ready. - Current pricing includes studios below $500,000, one-bedrooms from the $700,000s, two-bedrooms from $1.4 million, three-bedrooms from $2.3 million, and penthouses above $5 million. - The tower’s SkyClub and open-air SkyDeck are downtown Bellevue’s only condominium rooftop amenity. - The rooftop spaces overlook Lake Washington, the Cascades, and the Olympics. - The Select Residences on floors 3 through 15 include studios, one-bedrooms, one-bedroom-plus-dens, and two-bedrooms priced from below $500,000 to $1.65 million. - Those homes feature 9-foot-8-inch ceilings and Bosch appliances. - The upper-floor AIRE collection and penthouses include two-, three-, and four-bedroom homes with ceilings approaching 12 feet. - The upper homes also include panoramic views of Lake Washington, the Seattle skyline, and the Cascade and Olympic ranges. - Kitchens in those residences use Gaggenau and Thermador appliances. - More information is available at MARI Bellevue.
Between the lines: - The pricing reset suggests the developer is aligning the remaining inventory with current market conditions rather than relying on luxury-brand positioning alone. - The project is being marketed as an alternative to larger downtown towers by emphasizing privacy, community, and a more residential feel. - Buyer interest appears to be broadening beyond traditional luxury purchasers, with demand coming from first-time buyers, tech professionals, downsizers, and part-time residents. - The strongest appeal is likely on the upper floors, where limited availability and large-format homes fit downsizers from West Bellevue, Clyde Hill, and Medina. - Gwo Piña Buchanan’s involvement adds continuity, since Dehlan Gwo was involved in the project’s design and early development.
What’s next: - Gwo Piña Buchanan will continue selling the remaining 50 residences. - Limited availability on the highest floors suggests the upper homes may sell first if current demand holds. - The developer can still change the product offering without notice, according to the release.
The bottom line: - MARI Bellevue is back on the market with lower pricing, immediate sales momentum, and a shrinking pool of remaining homes.
