Summer in the PNW is my absolute favorite!! Mother Nature really likes to show off for a few months… but, holy heat, Batman! Although I do love the heat (I think I was a lizard in a past life, put me on a rock and let me bake…) I don’t love the humidity…and neither does my hair….think Monica Gellar on vacation! 🥴 That's why I've gathered some creative ways to beat the heat and keep your cool:
1️⃣ Create your own DIY water park: Turn your backyard into a refreshing oasis! Get a slip 'n slide, inflatable pool, or even set up a water balloon fight zone for some splashy fun. 💦💧
2️⃣ Chase waterfalls: Explore the stunning natural wonders in Washington state! Packed with breathtaking falls and hidden swimming holes, grab your hiking shoes and take a refreshing dip in cool, crystal-clear waters. 🌊🏞️
3️⃣ Dive into delicious treats: Indulge in some frosty goodness! Treat yourself to ice cream, frozen yogurt, or invest in a popsicle mold to create your own refreshing flavors and beat the heat from the inside out. 🍦🍨
4️⃣ Cinema under the stars: Take advantage of those warm summer nights! Set up a cozy outdoor movie night with family and friends, complete with comfy blankets, popcorn, and plenty of refreshing beverages. 🌌🎥
5️⃣ Embrace the indoors: When it's scorching outside, there's nothing wrong with staying indoors! Explore museums, art galleries, or catch a movie at the theater, or find a great happy hour 🍹, where you can enjoy the AC. 🖼️🎬
6️⃣ Take to the water! We have some spectacular beaches around us!! Take advantage of them! 🏖️

Sometimes your “spring cleaning” turns into summer…and sometimes what was supposed to be your “weekend project” turns into 6:45 pm on a Wednesday. 🤷🏼‍♀️

The point is…home maintenance is important, no matter the timing! And pressure washing then re-staining your decks (especially in the Pacific Northwest with all of our rain!) needs to be done! Also… pressure washing is fun and satisfying… so bonus! You check a chore off your list AND you enjoy doing it! Next up, stain and paint once it all dries!

What project is on your list??

I was hoping after attending the class this morning regarding Pierce county (specifically Tacoma) and the future of ADU’s I’d have a clear opinion of where I stood with this topic. I don’t. As with most things in life, there are always pros and cons. And although I did get some insight and good knowledge, I also walked away with a lot of questions that I hope to have answers to soon!

I’d like to start with saying I see the need for additional housing, and the lack of resources we have to be able to create it. I see the vision with creating housing opportunities along with an income source for homeowners, but I feel like there are kinks to be worked out first.

First the kinks I see, and then go in to the good things. I see parking as a major obstacle. As of right now, they don’t have to offer any parking options if the ADU is within 1/2 a mile of public transit, which is fine. But, they don’t have a plan to increase parking anywhere within the city, which already has crowded streets to begin with. What about the sewage impact/environmental impact that the are still doing research on and didn’t have clear answers yet? There’s also questions about how transient housing changes they dynamics in current neighborhoods…

Now, the positives! Since Tacoma revised their policies to approve ADU’s in 2019, 341 permits have been issued! Compared to Renton, who has a similar program that also rolled out during the pandemic and has only issued 10 permits! This shows how much of a need housing is in our area!! Tacoma is trying to take this even further by implementing their “Home in Tacoma” program. This will change zoning from “single family” to either “low scale” or “medium scale.” This new zoning will allow hybrid housing to continue to grow (i.e. backyard cottages, multiplexes, row houses, etc). They are also trying to streamline the process by creating pre-approved ADU plans on record at the county that will be FREE of charge! My favorite price! Along with other incentives!

This is my cliffs notes version, and we would love to grab a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and talk more about this if you have questions!

Seattle is opening their first affordable high rise in more than 50 years!

The building will have 2 separate apartment complexes in it. The bottom half to house seniors and veterans suffering from chronic homelessness. The top half to house families.

I’m sure there is a lot of thought and kinks that will need to be worked out to make this successful, but Well done, Seattle. (Full Story Link in our Stories)

Here’s the deal….I have a black thumb. Honestly, I’m just proud that I keep my fake plants alive! 😂 I also lack all vision when it comes to outdoors. Inside, all day long I’m your girl! I can envision paint color, flooring, lights, taking out walls, furniture… Ask me about a garden bed and my eyes gloss over! Thankfully, P***y is exact opposite! (And our yard is better for it, believe you me…👈🏼what does that even mean?!)

Your home's 🏡 curb appeal is the first impression that potential buyers will have, therefore, it’s important to make it a great one! A well-maintained and attractive curb appeal can make all the difference in the speed of selling your home. This includes a freshly painted front door, manicured lawn, and beautiful landscaping, fresh mulch (or like I call it, beauty bark…). It's the little touches that make a big impact when it comes to selling your home. And you’ll love the way it looks too!

Show potential buyers that your home is worth their time and effort with a stunning curb appeal.

Did you know that owning a home 🏠 can bring in some serious equity gains? 💰 I’m sure you did…especially after the past few years as you watched prices grow by leaps and bounds! But let’s look at what that really means… Homes typically gain 5-7% on average a year. Let’s use the modest amount (and for easy math… is the mathematician of the team, not me 😂) of 5%. Based on an $800,000 purchase price, the equity gained in just ONE YEAR is $40,000. Tell me where else you could make that much money?! I’m waiting 🤔…Truth is, you can’t! This means your money is working for YOU! 😎

Let’s sit down and talk about how to get your money working harder for you and invest in your future! Let’s start building wealth through homeownership, or maybe it’s strategizing how to continue building your wealth! 💪
