I moved here from New England in 1986 for about three years! Hard to believe that I am now approaching 20+ years here. This is the longest I’ve ever lived in any part of the country. When I first moved here, I called the West Redmond area home. I lived in the neighborhood for 8 years, before moving to Kirkland. I started my real estate career in the area and have kept at it ever since. When I started my career, I didn’t know anyone or much about anything to do with real estate. (Truth be told!) I assumed everyone started out selling homes in the neighborhood in which they lived. Lucky for me, I managed to learn a few things along the way.  I’ve been able to work with a lot of great people in the area over the past 20 years. The West Redmond area is truly special to me. I appreciate all the wonderful things about the location, the proximity to Microsoft, Seattle, Bellevue, and Kirkland.  Plus downtown Redmond only gets better and better each year.

Since 1987 I’ve been a REALTOR, mostly with Windermere Real Estate/East, Inc., selling homes in the neighborhoods of Seattle’s eastside: Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, Woodinville, Issaquah, and Sammamish. I have had fun working with buyers and sellers over the years. As part of my service, I have always felt it important to bring local/national economic information, real estate tips and other newsworthy data to my clients. I like to follow current real estate trends, boomer issues, the latest real estate technology, remodeling tips, etc. You name it, if it has to do with real estate, I am reading about it and you may find it here!  But lucky you, I will also throw in other things I think are of interest.  I’ve spent considerable time gathering data from all sorts of sources regarding real estate and it will be fun for me to have a venue to share what I find. This blog is an opportunity for me to share information I find relevant with the residents of the eastside, particularly in Redmond.

Here’s a link to my personal website which has information about my listings and the local real estate market.  You can also find me on linkedIn and Facebook.
