Designed Realty

Designed Realty Buying or selling a home is an expensive transaction and can be overwhelming. Contact us today at De I absolutely love living in Western Washington.

In the summer time, I try to spend as much time on the water as I can, whether that be on the lake, white water kayaking and rafting on the rivers, or fishing in the Sound. In the winter, you can find me in the mountains snowboarding and camping. I don't just want to sell you a house. Anyone can do that. I want to make sure you know everything about the neighborhood you are looking at, and can enjoy everything that this amazing region has to offer.

Take me back to those summer days ☀️🌊

Floating the Snoqualmie River with our brokers was the perfect reminder of what makes our culture so special—we work hard, have fun, and make time to enjoy the ride together.

We may be missing the summer heat, but we’re coming into Fall recharged, rejuvenated, and fired up for what’s ahead in the real estate market. 🍂🏡

A new season. New opportunities. Same great team.

Let’s get after it. 🔥

Not every lead enters the funnel at the same place.

A Zillow lead has already raised their hand. They are not casually browsing. They are asking to tour a specific home today, tomorrow, or this weekend.

That is why we call it a golden lead.

We have processed more than 16,000 Zillow leads. We have missed opportunities, studied the data, learned the KPIs, and built those lessons into the way we train agents.

Any brokerage can buy leads. Writing the check is the easy part. Knowing how to respond, follow up, and convert them is where the real value lives.

If you want a team that has built its business around understanding these opportunities, send us a message.

Huge thanks to Stone Insulation Stone Insulation Service for hosting an awesome golf tournament! ⛳️🏌️

Our team showed up with big swings, questionable putting, and just enough golf balls to keep the pro shop in business. 😅

We may not be ready for the PGA Tour, but we definitely won the award for best dressed. Thanks for a great day on the course!

🇺🇸 Fireworks, freedom, and a little gratitude—that’s what the 4th of July is all about.

This week, our brokers are out delivering 4th of July pop-bys as a small way to say thank you to the amazing clients who have trusted us, supported us, and referred their friends and family.

At Designed Realty, gratitude isn’t a campaign—it’s part of who we are. We believe strong communities are built through genuine relationships, thoughtful gestures, and showing up for the people we have the privilege of serving.

Wishing everyone a fun, safe, and happy Independence Day! ❤️🤍💙

Huge thanks to Jessica McLeish for coordinating it all!

📈 INVENTORY IS UP... BUT THAT’S NOT A BAD THING.

You’ve probably seen the headlines:

“Inventory is the highest it’s been in years.”
“Tech layoffs are hurting the market.”
“People are leaving because of taxes.”

While those stories make for great headlines, they don’t tell the whole story.

Yes, inventory is higher than we’ve seen in the last few years. But when you zoom out and look at the long-term data, today’s inventory levels are much closer to what a healthy, balanced housing market looks like.

The last several years weren’t normal. We experienced historically low inventory, bidding wars on nearly every listing, waived contingencies, and buyers competing against dozens of offers.

Today’s market is simply moving back toward balance.

Many of the market crash predictions point to tech layoffs and higher taxes as evidence that housing demand is disappearing. But if demand is truly evaporating, why was the Seattle metro area still ranked among the top five regions in the nation for population growth?

People continue to move here because of strong employment opportunities, quality of life, education, and long-term economic growth.

Could some areas see price adjustments? Absolutely.

Could some homes sit longer on the market than they did during the frenzy? Of course.

But that’s a far cry from a housing crash.

Unlike 2008, homeowners today generally have substantial equity, lending standards remain far stricter, and we aren’t seeing the widespread speculative lending practices that fueled the last major downturn.

The reality is much less dramatic than the headlines:

The market isn’t crashing.

It’s normalizing.

🏡 Whether you’re buying, selling, or just trying to make sense of the headlines, focus on the data—not the fear.
