After seeing / hearing wat seems to be the 5,000th politcal ad on TV and radio, spreading fear and misinformation, I'm exhausted. I'm irritated and fed up!
One political ad says Washington State's foreclosure rate is "2 times the national average." Really??!
Yesterday I read the Washington RealtorNews publication for Nov/Dec 2008. Their cover story - "Foreclosures: Where Washington Stands Today." Last year they took and in-depth look at foreclosures in Washington and in this article they look at this year's numbers. In it they report "According to the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) the current foreclosure rate for Washington State as of June 2008 is 1.04 percent , whereas nationally it is 2.75 percent. Washington ranked 45 in delinquencies and 44 in foreclosures started. This means that Washington State is currently performing 62 percent better than te national rate."
62 percent better!!
So why is consumer confidence at an all time low? I'll tell you why. Because these ads spreading doom and gloom are scaring the public! The average, every day person.
Washington's real estate market is still good. We've got many large employers representing different industries like Boeing, Microsoft, Bio-engineering, medicine, and Alaska Airlines/Horizon Air. Now is a great time to own real estate!
So please, Politicians, stop scaring my clients and hurting my livelihood. Find some other topic to use in your negative ads. Or better yet, quit running the ads!
November 4th can't come soon enough in my opinion.
Tomorrow is my office's "Paint The Town Red Open House and Food Drive".
I will be at my new listing at 3733 SW 319th St, Federal Way, WA 98023 from 1-4pm. All donations and proceeds will go to Federal Way's Multi Service Center.
"The Multi Service Center provides services to help people unleash their own potential to solve problems and become more self-reliant". Their services include "food, clothing, housing, education, employment, energy assistance and advocacy for elderly and disabled persons through our Long-Term Care Ombussman Program."
I will be accepting donations of food, household items, clothing, and cash.

Hopefully I'll see you there. Thank you!

Washington Native that works in South King County & Pierce County. Cities such as Kent, Federal Way, Auburn, Des Moines, Milton, Edgewood, Fife, Sumner, Puyallup, Tacoma, Setac, Spanaway & Gig Harbor
I am a Washington native and have lived in the greater Seattle area all my life. Specifically, I was born and raised in Des Moines, WA and then moved to the Milton / Edgewood area so I know the South King County and North Pierce County areas very well.
Before becoming a Realtor, I worked for nearly 15 years in the airline industry and I also worked as a residential real estate appraiser. In 2004, I left both the airline industry and appraising behind me and became a full time real estate agent / Realtor. I am with the Keller Williams Realty office in Federal Way, WA.
What is unique about me and my services is that because of my strong appraisal background I am able to provide my clients with the utmost details, facts, and analysis of their home purchase or sale so that they can make the best informed decisions. My appraisal background has also given me some very strong tools for helping my clients see the bigger picture of buying and selling real estate and how it relates to value in the future.
Why me? Because when it comes to real estate I am one of the best project managers you will ever meet. And that is what you need when you buy or sell real estate. I focus on your wants and needs. I believe that by taking care of the details, I keep my clients' move on target for success and never let my clients lose sight of their real estate goals. Because in the end all that matters is results- the results you want.
I specialize in residential sales. I do not work with commercial clients although I can refer you to some great commercial real estate people. Whether it is your first home, fifth home, or vacation home- I want your real estate experience to be a positive one. It is fun for all of us when the home has an emotional value.
My area of experise is North Tacoma (specifically the North Slope and Stadium Districts) and the communities that border the King County / Pierce County line like Milton, Edgewood, Fife, Federal Way, and Auburn. In the picture of Tacoma below, the areas I track are the areas numbered with an 18,19,20,21, and 22.
I actively track the supply and demand of these areas. Every week I follow sales trends and I keep my clients informed as to the status of the market and where they fit into it at any given moment. This information is valuable to both sellers and buyers.
I have helped clients buy or sell homes in Ravensdale, Renton, Kent, Covington, Auburn, Enumclaw, Des Moines, Tacoma, Sumner, Bonney Lake, Puyallup, Fife, Edgewood, Milton, Spanaway, Univerisy Place, Seatac, South Seattle, Gig Harbor, and even Woodland and Longview. The majority of my business is from referral so I go where my clients need me to go. And since I look at each real estate transaction like an appraiser does, I feel comfortable doing so.
So if you are looking to buy or sell a home in the area from Ravensdale to Spanaway, contact me. I look forward to talking to you.
