Uncategorized Laurelhurst Broker Tour There were some great homes on the broker tour today in the areas north of the Ship Canal. This home in Laurelhurst had six portholes arranged in the wall. Very cool. Judging from the number of construction/work trucks in Laurelhurst today, some people are still spending to improve their homes.
Uncategorized Refinancing? Perhaps I can help improve your odds of success With interest rates continuing to amaze, are you considering re-financing? If so, this content from Inman News, while dated, may be interesting: http://www.inman.com/buyers-sellers/columnists/jackguttentag/debunking-refinance-myths?page=0%2C0. Many refinance efforts work just fine, but…more fail these days than have in the past. (I couldn’t quickly find the numbers, but in many ways, it doesn’t matter. If the one that […]

Uncategorized Interesting Mid-Century Opportunities in Magnolia http://www.youtube.com/get_player Two relatively similarly priced homes in Magnolia. One offers a large lot and a neighborhood of higher priced homes, the other offers great view of Downtown Seattle, Elliott Bay, and perhaps Mt. Rainer.

Uncategorized Monday Windermere Tour Results; Compared to previous Monday Last week I had a property just north of Green Lake on Windermere tour. It was 3BR/2BA, listed at 750,000. 12 agents showed up. Today, I hosted a 3BR/1.5BA home just south of the lake and had eight people show up; three of then passers-by. What was the difference? Weather, I think (sunny last week and overcast […]

Uncategorized What Can Go Wrong With An Homeowners Association?: Q: What Can Go Wrong With An Homeowners Association?:A friend recently asked me this question. His question was about downtown Seattle condominiums, but as I considered my answer, I thought it important to point out to him that the answer applies to all properties governed by an HOA (sometimes single-family detached neighborhoods).
