Olympia Homes With Trish

Looking for something fun and unique to do around Olympia this summer? 🎪✨

Shoestring Circus in Olympia is coming back under the Big Top with world-class performers, aerialists, acrobats, and family-friendly entertainment.

One of the things I love about living in the South Sound is all the local events that pop up throughout the year—there's always something fun happening nearby.

This event has sold out in past years, so if it's on your summer bucket list, it might be worth grabbing tickets early!

Another happy buyer!

One of the biggest priorities in this home search was finding a place close to nature with easy access to trails for daily walks with the dogs and plenty of opportunities to get outside and enjoy the Pacific Northwest.

I'm excited to say we found the perfect fit! 😍

This is what I love most about real estate. It's not just about finding a house it's about finding a home that supports the lifestyle that's important to you.

Congratulations to my buyer on locking in this great home and starting an exciting new chapter!

So excited for my sellers... who are now my buyers!

We sold their home quickly and found the perfect place for their next chapter a home they can truly see themselves in for years to come. 😍

Helping families navigate the sale of one home while purchasing another is one of my favorite parts of this job. There are a lot of moving pieces, and my goal is always to make the process feel as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Congratulations to my amazing clients on finding their forever home!

🇺🇸 PCS Season is Here! Thinking about JBLM?

One of the biggest questions I hear from military families relocating to the area is:

"Where should we live?"

The good news? You have options.

I've put together a quick guide showing some of the most popular communities near JBLM, including:
✅ Average home prices
✅ Distance to base
✅ Popular areas for military families
✅ A variety of lifestyles and budgets

Whether you're looking for a shorter commute, more space, top-rated schools, acreage, or a strong sense of community, there's a South Sound neighborhood that can fit your goals.

As a Military & PCS Specialist, I've helped many families make the move to the JBLM area, and I know relocating can feel overwhelming especially when you're house hunting from across the country.

Here's what I'd tell my own family: Start exploring your options early. Every city offers something a little different, and finding the right fit can make all the difference in your PCS experience.

Have questions about any of these areas? Send me a message. I'm happy to help you compare communities, explain commute times, discuss VA loan options, or even preview homes on your behalf with a video tour for you to watch at your leisure!
