Fall Has Fallen Around My House!
Our Pacific Northwest area has had an “almost – on again/off again” summer this year. Other than just a week or two of hot weather early in August, much of the rest of the summer has been wet, overcast, or just daggone cool! We didn’t really have much of a winter this last year either, now that I think of it. Leaves have been dropping steadily over the last week or so, although we really haven’t been hit with the onslaught from the big maple in the front yard. It’s coming soon though! Yesterday was a gorgeous fall day — just hot enough to make you think... [Read more...]

Valley Cities Landing — A Perfect Solution for Homelessness in Auburn, WA
Housing opportunities for homeless veterans and other homeless individuals working through mental illness in Auburn, WA took a much needed gain on Friday afternoon. As an Ambassador for the Auburn Chamber of Commerce, attending opening ceremonies and participating in ribbon cuttings is just part of the position. However, being touched by the care and compassion demonstrated at the dedication ceremony for Valley Cities Landing on Friday afternoon was truly a priviledge.

Engaging and Vital Real Estate Statistics for Kent, WA
Over the last few days, I’ve blogged a bit about market updates: Boring but Invaluable Statistics for Auburn and Tedious but Crucial Statistics for Maple Valley, Washington. After yesterday’s Maple Valley post, one reader from another site where I also post these stats, chimed in to say “why are you calling these Tedious?” Hmmm. With that light admonition in mind, I decided that Real Estate Statistics for Kent, should, at the very least, be classified as “Engaging and Vital.” Because I live in Auburn, am based out of my Maple Valley office, raised my family in...

Boring But Invaluable Real Estate Statistics for Auburn WA
Yeah, I know … stats are boring. Especially putting them together every month. But when helping a seller understand what they need to do to sell their house … or why they’ll likely get the price under discussion, or why a buyer could/should pay a particular price for a home, they’re invaluable. So here’s boring, but invaluable statistic #1: The average home price for homes that sold as of end of July 2010 is less than it was in July 2004: So here’s boring, but invaluable statistic #2: There’s typically a spike in accepted offers in March, followed by steady...
