🏡 **PENDING IN REDMOND!**

A huge congratulations to our first-time buyer on securing this outstanding top-floor condo in the heart of Redmond!

Beyond being a great place to call home, this one checks so many boxes for a smart long-term investment — an unbeatable location near Marymoor Park, Redmond Town Center, the Sammamish River Trail and major employers including Microsoft, Google and Meta, plus **no rental cap** for added flexibility down the road.

There’s something especially exciting about helping a first-time buyer take this step. Congratulations — we’re so excited to see you officially on your way to homeownership.

Our 7th Annual September Food Drive is Here! 🥫💙

For the seventh year, we're partnering with the Maltby Food Bank to help stock shelves and support local families throughout our community. Each year, your generosity continues to amaze us. Together, we've collected thousands of pounds of food over the past six years, and we're excited to see what we can accomplish this September!

There are several easy ways to give:
- Drop off donations at our home or office
- Schedule a porch pickup
- Ship an online order directly to our home
- Make a monetary donation

Every can, every box, every dollar, and every act of kindness makes a real difference for neighbors facing food insecurity. Thank you for helping us continue this tradition of giving back. We're so grateful to be part of a community that always shows up for one another.

Let's make Year 7 our biggest impact yet! Attempting to beat last year's result, 1,500lbs!

$20,000 over asking! 🎉

In a changing real estate market, strategy matters. This seller trusted our pricing recommendation, followed our plan for preparing and positioning the home, and walked away with a quick sale, fantastic terms, and an offer $20,000 above list price.

Grateful for the trust—and thrilled to deliver such a great result.

Eastside Market Update | July 2026 🏡

The Eastside market continues to shift, and buyers definitely have more breathing room than they did a year ago.

Inventory climbed to 1,948 active homes in July — up 38% year over year and the highest we’ve seen in more than a decade. Months of supply is now at 4.0, compared to 2.4 last year, putting us firmly into buyer’s market territory.

A few other numbers that stood out:

* Pending and closed sales are both down about 6% year-to-date
* Median sales price is $1,575,000, down 7% YTD
* Just 27% of homes sold at or above asking price in July
* 39% of sales had a price reduction before going under contract

For sellers, pricing right from day one matters more than ever. For buyers, there are more choices, less competition, and more room to negotiate than we’ve seen in years. And as always, the numbers can look very different depending on the neighborhood and price point.

🎉 Just Closed! | 21812 2nd Ave Se, Bothell, WA

Bet you didn’t expect to see multiple offers and a sale above list price in Bothell this month. 👀 But that’s exactly what happened.

My sellers understood the assignment: price aggressively, do the necessary prep work, and hit the market ready to impress. And wow, did it pay off.

🔥 3 offers in first 24 hours on market
🔥 Escalated to nearly 3% above list price
🔥 Closed in just 2 weeks
🔥 List: $729,999, Sold: $750,000

In a market where buyers have options, preparation and pricing matter more than ever. We created competition—and my clients couldn’t be happier with the result.

Eastside Market Update | July 2026

Main Takeaways:
• Active inventory is up 41% year-to-date
• Months of supply increased to 3.3, up from 2.3 a year ago
• Pending and closed sales are both down 4% year-to-date
• Median home prices are down 3% across the Eastside

Current Conditions:
• Sellers are facing increased competition and need to price strategically from day one
• Buyers have more options and greater negotiating power, but desirable homes are still selling quickly
• Homes that sell within the first 15 days are achieving close to full asking price, while extended days on market often lead to larger price reductions
• Each Eastside submarket is performing differently, making local market knowledge more important than ever

What This Means:
This is a market that rewards strategy over speculation. Sellers should focus on competitive pricing, presentation, and flexibility, while buyers can negotiate confidently using current market data without waiting too long on the right home. Success on both sides comes from understanding the unique conditions of each neighborhood and making informed decisions.
