Looking for Leavenworth Real Estate News?
I have been pretty active over at www.myleavenworth.com, the Leavenworth real estate blog.
Most recently I wrote a post about the ban on vacation rentals in the Chiwawa River Pines neighborhood. This is a pretty contentious issue - you can read another opinion about it at www.ncwrealestateblog.com
The week before I did an outline of Leavenworth's Fall festivals including last weeks Autumn Leaf and Leavenworth's Oktoberfest which started last night and runs for the next two weekends.
Darel Ansley also wrote an article sharing his opinion on the Big Bailout aka the Paulson Plan . It's been approved since then, but it's still worth the read.
Lastly, I wrote an post about increasing bear activity around Leavenworth and Lake Wenatchee. A lack of berries this summer has bears down low getting in to trouble looking for food.

I have been lucky to work with John Griffith of Cascade Site Services in Cashmere, WA these past few years as my home inspector. John was always very thorough, wrote great reports and communicated well with my clients. I used him to do pre-listing inspections, I recommended that my clients use him, and hired him to inspect my own home. Unfortunately, the rising cost of liability insurance and a slowing market, have caused him to re-think his business plan. John is also a licensed appraiser and is switching the focus of his company to the appraisal side of things.
Do you have a favorite inspector in Central WA? Are you an inspector looking for another 15-20 inspections a year? Don't be shy, I'm hiring!
This is my only second video with the new Flip video camera. I enjoyed shooting, but found the editing a little tiresome. I am excited about all the possibilities once I get the details worked out.
I hope you enjoyed the views from Sauer Mountain in Leavenworth and all the great wildflowers.
The Leavenworth Real Estate Blog, myleavenworth.com has a number of recent articles that are really worth checking out.
I wrote updates for Leavenworth market stats for both houses in Leavenworth (single family homes) and for Leavenworth condos.
I also posted part 1 of a two part series by home inspector, John Griffith of Cascade Site Services. John's article talks about 5 common issues Leavenworth home buyers might typically find while doing a home inspection.
Look for part 2 coming soon..

Geordie Romer is a real estate agent with Windermere Real Estate in Leavenworth Washington. I specialize in vacation homes and second homes in Leavenworth, Lake Wenatchee, Plain, and Cashmere.
I am a Washington native, raised in Olympia and currently a resident of Cashmere. I am a graduate of Middlebury College in Vermont where I earned a B.A. in Environmental Studies and Political Science. Prior to real estate I spent nearly a decade in law enforcement as a park ranger in our National Parks. 
I am one of only a handful of real estate agents in the Wenatchee Valley to earn their e-PRO designation from the National Association of Realtors. As an e-PRO I have received the most up to date training on how to use the internet, e-mail, and other high tech tools to maximize my real estate business. With 77% of consumers using the internet to help them research real estate, it makes sense to use an agent who understands how best to use these tools.
In 2007 I was awarded the Certified Residential Specialist designation by the Council of Residential Specialists. Less than 4% of all Realtors earn this coveted designation which requires extensive real estate experience and advanced training. Only a dozen Realtors in Chelan and Douglas counties hold the CRS designation.
My goal is to be the best advocate for my clients and to find creative solutions to their problems. In 2007, I saved my buyers an average of $9000 and sold my listings for nearly 99% of their list price.
In 2006 my peers named me to the Board of Directors for the North Central Washington Association of REALTORS where I served as the Director for Governmental Affairs for Chelan County. I also have served on the MLS committee and have coordinated the REALTOR food drive in Leavenworth.
