Sunset Hill Real Estate and more: Find out why I love this Ballard waterfront Seattle neighborhood!
Sunset Hill in Ballard has long been one of my favorite spots in Seattle - you can read why in this Sunday's Seattle Times article by Ray Martinez:
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/realestate/2010218456_realneighborhood08.html
Mr. Martinez asked me for a lot of NWMLS numbers for the Sunset Hill article, but also was kind enough to post some of my personal thoughts o the neighborhood. Here is an excerpt:
For Cooper, the walking factor in the neighborhood has sentimental value.
"I met my husband in Sunset Hill - he was my next-door neighbor," the real-estate agent said. "Almost our entire courtship involved walking around the neighborhood for hours daily.
"He actually proposed to me at Sunset Hill Park one evening many years ago, and our anniversary ritual, as boring as it sounds, is to go buy some crab cakes from Ray's [Boathouse Cafe & Bar] and sit at the park every year and watch sailboats."
"It is truly one of my favorite neighborhoods in Seattle. I love the fresh salty breezes and the care and attention that goes into the gardening and landscapes here."
Sunset Hill Seattle Sunsets? The article has a lot of great info and quotes and it is funny to note that none of us actually mentioned the phenomenal sunsets that are experienced on Sunset Hill! Are you interested in Sunset Hill Homes? I would love to show you around this very special neighborhood!
Home Buyer Tax Credit 2009: It passed the house and the senate and Obama has signed it into law. The IRS site is updated except for the latest version of tax form to accommodate the newest change to the housing credit.
The basics of the home buyer credit in this version? In a nutshell, you can make more money to qualify, you have longer to find the qualifying home and even longer to close after that, and you don't have to be a first time home buyer to qualify for the reduced credit of $6500.
The ceilings and deadlines have SERIOUSLY been moved with this version so please do read the details here:

Seattle Backyard Cottages Approved: You may remember that I wrote about Seattle backyard cottages coming to a vote yesterday. The proposal was approved and city wide Seattle (unless you are in the Shoreline District) is allowed one ADU - either as a backyard cottage on lots that qualify in size (have to be more than 4000 square feet, etc.) or an ADU inside the house walls. You can only have one, but now there are more options than just your basement for an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) in Seattle!
Seattle Backyard Cottages and Real Estate: Are you interested in finding Seattle real estate that qualifies for a backyard cottage? There are already many firms stepping up to advertise their backyard cottage services. I look forward to seeing how this plays out! Density does belong in the city and this is a great way to make affordable housing as long as quality construction and design is respected! I know a perfect Greenwood home offhand that would be a great candidate and it is on almost a third of an acre!
Queen Anne West slope real estate is hopping -there are some wonderful homes out there right now and Queen Anne has been selling pretty quickly given that this is the 2009 Seattle real estate market! 
West of Queen Anne Ave N all the way over to 10th Ave W and from about Prospect up North to McGraw was where we were focusing today and there are some wonderful choices in the $600,000 to $1,000,000 range. Amazing sweeping Puget Sound views can be had for under a million in this neighborhood, especially if you are willing to put in a little elbow grease fixing the house up to make it perfect.
Queen Anne character: There are a lot of extremely gorgeous tree lined streets with thick sidewalks and walking paths that even Green Lake could envy on a day such as today. The Queen Anne home pictured above is appointed towards the Sound and mountains and perched above the lovely Wilcox Wall high up on on the West slope of Queen Anne.
Queen Anne Real Estate: Listed Queen Anne homes on the West slope are moving fairly quickly. If you have a nice home that is at least three bedrooms in this ten by ten block area of the West slope of Queen Anne, please let me know! I have a buyer who really wants to move here and we are seeing everything. This particular area has a nice mix of easy bus route right Downtown (bus 1) as well as easy walk to Queen Anne Ave for all the great Upper Queen Anne merchants, plus Trader Joe's and the library are right here, too!
If you are interested in Queen Anne real estate, please let us know - we are happy to show you some of our favorite spots and homes available for sale in this wonderful Seattle neighborhood.
The Upper Queen Anne Merchant Association is once again presenting its anual Trick or Treat Event.
October 31st from 3PM to 5PM all along Queen Anne Ave from Galer to McGraws Streets!
Queen Anne Ave Trick-Or-Treating: All your local Upper Queen Anne merchants will be handing out treats to all the costumed kiddies! Safety for the little ones: Not only that , but the merchants in this neighborhood are hiring an officer to assist with pedestrian traffic and safety at Queen Anne Ave and Boston and Queen Anne Ave and Crockett.
Want more Queen Anne Halloween fun? Farm Food Fair at Queen Anne Ave and Crockett from 2-7 PM hosted by the Queen Anne Farmer's Market.
