Well here we are wrapping up the first month of fall. If you live in the Green River Valley there is no doubt that you have been keeping up on the news of the Howard Hanson Dam situation. If you were a victim of the last years flooding then I'm sure you have already laid plans for this winter long ago. Some of you may still be scrambling for flood insurance information. Many companies have stopped insuring private homes but the government still has programs available. If you would like up to date information on exactly what the river is doing this season you can access the Green River flooding information straight from the USGS. The government has been steadily working this past year to minimize any damage that we may have this upcoming rainy season, but we still need to take responsibility ourselves. Be safe out there!

Until next time.

If you're looking for affordable Seattle condo living you just might find it at the Beacon Flats on S. Holgate st. This condo project has 16 one bedroom units with public transportation conviniently located out front. Most of the units here are well appointed and come with storage spaces. Unit 302 is by far one of the best in the building. This unit is the largest and has an AWESOME view of the cascade range and Bellevue. All units also come with washers and dryers and all appliances.

All of the units are priced to sell but possibly the best deals are the "studio" units on the first floor. These units are the same size and layout as the one bedrooms but have no bedroom window or door. Because of this they are classified as "studios" but start at only $169,950!
