If you're thinking about downsizing but you're worried about leaving your neighborhood — I have good news.

I've lived in Kent for years. I live here. I know how much it means to be close to your church, your doctors, your grandkids, your neighbors. That shouldn't have to change just because your home needs to.

In Kent, Covington, and Maple Valley, there are more options than most people realize.

Single-level homes in established neighborhoods — where you already know the streets and the faces.

55-plus communities with all the amenities and none of the maintenance — right here in south King County.

Townhomes and condos in Maple Valley and Covington that give you more freedom — without moving you across town.

I've spent over 20 years helping people navigate exactly this decision. My job isn't to rush you into anything. It's to show you what's actually possible — so you can choose with confidence, not fear.

If you or someone you love is starting to think about what's next — I'd love to have that conversation. No pressure, no obligation. Just a neighbor who knows this market and genuinely wants to help.

My name is Janet Lewis. I'm with Windermere, and I'm right here in Kent. Let's talk.

If you're waiting for the real estate market and lending rates to "return to normal", I've got good news for you -- we're there!

Or should I say, we are in the new normal. Rates have generally stayed steady for many months now and home prices have remained strong as well. In every situation, a market forms and buyers and sellers find common ground.

There are opportunities in every market and smart sellers and creative buyers can find a way to make a deal. If it's time for you to make a move in the real estate market but you're not sure where to begin, let's talk.

Are you familiar with Color Drenching?

It's a great interior design technique that involves applying a single, dominant color to a space, often applying it to walls, ceilings, trim and even furniture. The final result can look very dramatic, cozy and even feel larger and more luxurious.

Here are some examples to inspire you in your interior design projects!

𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 – 𝐀𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐥 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔
The Seattle housing market is officially waking up for spring—and it’s looking very different than the past few years.

📊 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰:
• Inventory is rising fast (up 30–40%+ in many areas)
• Buyers have more options—and there may be a bit more for negotiats
• Home prices are holding relatively steady, with modest year-over-year changes
• Mortgage rates are hovering around the low 6% range
Even with more homes on the market, 𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠. Well-priced homes are continuing to attract serious buyers—and in many cases, multiple offers.

💡 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬:
We’re shifting into a more balanced market:
✔️ Sellers need to price strategically (not aggressively)
✔️ Buyers have more breathing room—and still need to act decisively on the right home

📈 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔:
Experts are pointing toward a steadier, more normalized market this year—more inventory, more realistic pricing, and fewer extreme swings.
👉 Bottom line:
It’s a smarter, more strategic market—for both buyers and sellers.

If you’re wondering how this impacts your specific situation, I’m happy to help you make sense of it.
