Roof maintenance doesn’t have to mean climbing onto your roof every weekend.
A few simple habits: keeping gutters clear, staying ahead of moss, trimming nearby branches, watching for visible wear, and checking for signs of moisture inside; can go a long way toward protecting one of the most important parts of your home.

This week in Know Your House: Roofs, I’m breaking down the maintenance homeowners should actually be doing, plus a few signs that it may be time to bring in a professional.

A little attention now can help prevent much bigger surprises later.

A new NWMLS status is changing the way some listings are brought to market. 🏡

With the introduction of First Look, buyers and sellers have a new option to understand, and there are important details around access, exposure, syndication, and what this means for consumers.

I'm breaking it down in my latest newsletter, including what buyers and sellers should know and why working with a broker matters, so you don't miss out.

Swipe through for the highlights, then read the full newsletter on my blog.

How old is your roof? It’s one of those home details that’s easy to overlook until it suddenly matters. 🏠

Different roofing materials come with very different expected lifespans, but age is only part of the story. Installation quality, ventilation, maintenance, surrounding trees, sun exposure, and our Northwest climate can all affect how quickly a roof wears.

This week in Know Your House: Roofs, we’re breaking down typical roof lifespans, what can shorten them, and some of the signs that your roof may be ready for a closer look.
Knowing what you have, and roughly how old it is, makes it much easier to plan ahead.

Sold in Mukilteo ✨

A fantastic purchase for my buyers in Mukilteo’s Goat Trail neighborhood! With panoramic views of the Olympic Mountains, Possession Sound, and passing ferries, this home offered something truly special. Even better, we were able to negotiate under list price and secure a great result for my clients. Congratulations to my buyers on their beautiful new home! 🏡🌊

In honor of National Food Bank Day, I'm celebrating the power of neighbors helping neighbors, and encouraging everyone to find a way to get involved.

Through my office's ongoing partnership with Volunteers of America Western Washington, we have donated $36,486 and 22,067 pounds of food over the past five years. I'm proud of what we’ve accomplished together and remain deeply committed to supporting the communities I serve.

Whether you donate food, contribute funds, volunteer your time, or help spread the word, every effort makes a difference. 💙

Welcome to Know Your House: Roofs 101 🏠

We see them every day, but most of us don’t give our roofs much thought until there’s a problem. And while they may all serve the same basic purpose, roof shape, material, maintenance needs, and lifespans can vary quite a bit.

I’m kicking off my September roof series with the basics: some of the most common roof types and materials you’ll find on homes.

Because the better you know your house, the better equipped you are to take care of it.

A few grab-and-go favorites, a little Sunday prep, and one less thing to think about during the week. ✨
