Luxury real estate looks different for a Boomer than it does for a Gen X or Young Millennial. Boomers seek meaning in their homes while Generation X's are about freedom (geographical, financial, or personal). Young/Millennials seek more home, better design, equal or greater investment performance, minus the premium of a marquee address.
But all seem to agree we are still in a hybrid work seeking world with 43% of people ages 25 to 54 who work remotely and 60% report wanting to do so. Even Boomers (ages 60-78) want that home office.

Can you get a mortgage on a floating home in Seattle?

Yes...keep in mind floating homes and houseboats on Lake Union are unique — and financing them works differently than traditional homes. We can give you some inside scoop on what you can expect and set you up for success.

If you’re curious about how buying one works, I’m always happy to explain the process. You do not need to reply with a word cue. We're sorta big on conversations with people not text.
Just send me a message to my email and set up a time to chat when you want to have a good old fashion conversation and get the answers to your questions. [email protected]

Congratulations to our sellers of 3012 Fuhrman! They were an absolute pleasure to work with and we couldn't be happier for them.

Do you know what this means though? It means I've got room for one more seller to help them list their home for the best possible price and with the least amount of stress.

Let me know who I can be meeting with right now ~ I can't wait to meet them and assist in their home selling process.

See you soon,
Molly

Boise is a changin'. Micron Technology is moving in and within a decade, Boise will transform from a mid-size city into a legitimate semiconductor and tech hub — comparable to regions like Austin and parts of Silicon Valley.

This is generational change for Idaho. The Treasure Valley is about to become one of America's next major tech centers, and it's all happening right now.

The ripple effect will flow into housing and infrastructure, local economy for restaurants and cost of living. Since the beginning of the pandemic in 2020, Boise's real estate quickly saw an increase in home values. Many though it was a bubble market but actually home values never dipped and continue to grow to this day.

We just secured a six month rental on an Eastlake floating home for under $4,000. This renter emailed us directly and after an initial tour, we realized we had some friends in common. With 500 floating homes and 250 houseboat liveaboards...this is bound to happen. The community connection is why we love what we do so much.
We also like to promote and support local Lake Union businesses, artists, and vendors.

Happy Thanksgiving Holiday!
