Name one real thing keeping you in a house that doesn't fit your life anymore.

I'll wait.

The stuff? Solvable. The memories? They ride in the moving truck with you. The market? Around here it's doing fine, whatever the national headlines say. Not knowing what comes next? That's literally my job description. Your spouse isn't ready? I've refereed that conversation more times than I can count. The kids might want to come back? They won't. We've talked about this.

Seventeen years in, I've heard every version of every reason. And I say this with love: none of them are as big as they feel right now.

So what's yours? The real one. Tell me in the comments. I read all of them and I'll probably have a story about it.

Labor Day was built by people who fought for the eight-hour workday. Then most of us went and became self-employed.

If you're taking today off, take it all the way off. No "quick" email. No checking Zillow to see what the neighbor's house sold for. That number will still be there Tuesday.

If you're working anyway, I get it. The house doesn't clean itself before the showing, and the ferry is on a holiday schedule, so plan accordingly.

Either way, be safe out there. The boat launches and Highway 16 will both be full.

Happy Labor Day.

Most agents want your listing. I want the part that comes before it.

The listing chaser tells you what you want to hear. High price, easy timeline, no hard conversations. It works right up until the house sits and the price cuts start.

The other kind of agent tells you the truth about your equity, your options, and what your next chapter actually costs. Then earns the job.

I left managing brokers at a big box firm to do that work one-on-one again. Because the part I love is watching someone who was scared to sell walk out of closing with more freedom than they walked in with.

The listing is how I get paid. You're why I get out of bed.

Quick question: if a home sale could change one thing in your life, what would it be? One word is fine.

Nobody was supposed to be at that meeting except me and the homeowner.

Four people were standing at the top of the driveway when I pulled up. Two of them had no legal connection to the house. One of them started yelling before I'd finished asking names.

I've been doing this 17 years. Most of the job is spreadsheets, paperwork, and phone calls. Some of it is standing in a driveway telling a grown man that being loud does not put his name on a deed.

I still walked the property that day. I still confirmed the number. The job doesn't pause because someone decided to be furious about a house they don't own.

This is a random Tuesday.

A guy I'd never met was about to hand his house back to the bank.

Six months behind. Convinced he owed more than it was worth. Ex still living in it. He'd already made peace with walking away with nothing.

There was ninety thousand dollars in that house. His. He was one signature away from giving it to the bank because a piece of paperwork felt easier than a spreadsheet.

Here's the part I want you to sit with: he wasn't wrong to feel done. He was wrong about the number. And nobody in that process, not the lender, not the servicer, not the deed-in-lieu paperwork, is required to tell you what your house is actually worth before you sign.

If you or someone you know is behind on a mortgage and thinking about walking away, the first step isn't the paperwork. It's the math. I'll run the comps for free, no strings, and tell you the truth even if the truth is "you're right, there's nothing here."

Comment COMPS or send me a message and I'll get you a number.

The inspection didn't find a leak. It found a roof that had been sagging for years and nobody knew.

That's the part of this job nobody posts about. Not the sold sign. Not the "just closed" graphic. The part where I'm standing in an attic with a contractor arguing about what thirty thousand dollars of damage is actually going to cost to fix, and then spending three weeks making sure my buyer doesn't pay for it.

This is what representation actually looks like. Not paperwork. Not picking paint colors. This.

New price on the Manchester view home: $886,500.

Let's be honest about what changed and what didn't.

The price dropped $13,500. The view didn't drop at all. Downtown Seattle, Vashon Island, and Mt. Rainier are still there, still unobstructed, still visible from nearly every main living space in the house.

This one's 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 2,425 square feet on a 12,632 square foot lot in Port Orchard. The primary suite is on the main level, so nobody's climbing stairs to get to bed. The lower level has two more bedrooms, a family room, a 3/4 bath, and its own private entry, which makes it work for guests, extended family, or anyone who wants a little separation from the rest of the house.

Owner financing is available with negotiable terms. If traditional financing isn't penciling out for you right now, that's worth an actual conversation.

Message me for more info or to schedule a private showing.

The market didn't get weaker in July. It got more complicated.

Inventory across King, Pierce, and Kitsap grew almost 20% year over year. That's a real shift. Buyers have more to choose from than they've had in a while.

But more choices didn't translate into more sales. Pending sales dropped 7.2%, closed sales dropped 3.2%, and the regionwide median price actually came down 1.5% to $640,000.

Here's the part that matters if you're buying or selling locally: none of these three counties are telling the same story.

King County has the most inventory growth (up nearly 24%) and the highest prices, but pending sales fell almost 13.5%. Pierce is sitting in the middle on everything. Kitsap has the tightest supply of the three, at just over 2 months, with prices still climbing.

So "the market" isn't really one market right now. It's three, and honestly it's more granular than that once you get down to a specific neighborhood or price point.

If you want the version of this that applies to your actual house or your actual search, that's a different conversation than a market recap. Send me a message and I'll walk you through it.

Tacoma open houses this weekend. Full list in the comments.

If you've been curious what's actually available right now versus what a listing site told you three weeks ago, this is your chance to see it in person. Walk the space, ask the hard questions, get a feel for the neighborhood. That's what open houses are for.

Can't make it this weekend but still want a look? Send me a DM and we'll set up a private showing.
