New Listing!

This Redmond duplex offers a convenient Eastside location, recently updated interiors, and two vacant units. Live in one and rent the other—or rent both.

Historical combined rent was $7,100/month, with rents unchanged for years. It’s worth taking a fresh look at the rental potential following the recent updates.

Economic uncertainty calls for thoughtful decisions. For buyers who do their homework and take a long-term view, it can also present opportunities worth exploring. 🏡

Looking for a home with rental income or a long-term investment? Let’s tour the property and explore the numbers together.

The market isn’t easy right now, but not receiving the ideal response immediately doesn’t mean a home lacks value—or that there isn’t a path forward.

I’m grateful that, with my sellers’ trust and cooperation, thoughtful preparation, and timely adjustments, this home received multiple offers and is now pending.

I would never claim that any strategy can guarantee a result. But careful preparation, respect for the market, and a willingness to adjust can help the right buyers recognize a home’s value.

If selling is something you genuinely want or need to accomplish, I would be honored to do everything I can to guide you through each step.

🏡 Major Price Improvement| $846,000 → $799,000

In a shifting market, buyers may be tempted to wait for prices to fall further. But smart real estate decisions aren’t about perfectly timing the bottom—they’re about choosing a property that can hold its value through changing market cycles.

Located in the established and convenient Crown Hill neighborhood, this newer home offers a functional layout and flexibility for owner occupancy, future rental use, and resale.

The seller understands that this price reduction comes at a loss, but is responding to today’s market with genuine motivation. At $799,000, this home is absolutely worth another look.

Real estate will always move in cycles. But over the long term, Seattle-area home prices have nearly doubled in the past 10 years and risen approximately 186% over the past 15 years. Short-term fluctuations are difficult to predict—the key is choosing the right location, the right functionality, and giving a quality property enough time to grow in value.

🏡 Just Listed! - Mercer Island Development Opportunity! 🏡

This property is more than just a home — it’s a smart investment!

🔑 The current house can be rented out to help cover holding costs while you wait for permits.
📄 Preliminary approval for subdivision is already secured — submit your permit and start dividing the land immediately.
📏 Spacious 22,000+ sqft lot can be divided into TWO separate lots, perfect for building luxury homes.
📐 Maximum 40% Floor Area Ratio (FAR) allows for generous home sizes.
✔️ Feasibility study was completed at time of purchase, confirming the strong development potential.

Build TWO luxury homes in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods on Mercer Island — where land is scarce and demand is high!

❓Why building on Mercer Island?
1. 💰High-Value Investment: Mercer Island is one of the most affluent and desirable residential areas in the Seattle metro region. Luxury homes here typically command multi-million-dollar prices, reflecting the community’s prestige and demand.

2. 🏄‍♀️Exclusive Lifestyle: Mercer Island offers an upscale, tranquil lifestyle with beautiful natural surroundings, waterfront views, top-rated schools, and close proximity to Seattle and Bellevue. Building luxury homes means catering to buyers who want premium amenities, privacy, and exceptional design.

3. 🏖Scarce Land Opportunity: Mercer Island has limited developable land due to its size and zoning. Subdividing a lot to build two luxury homes is rare and highly sought after, making the property a unique opportunity for builders or investors.

4. 📈Long-Term Value: Homes on Mercer Island tend to hold or increase their value over time due to strong community demand, quality of life, and limited supply, making luxury development here a smart long-term real estate play.
