Vista Title & Escrow

📰 Hey! We know that guy!

Our CEO, Anthony Carollo, was recently featured in the Spokane Journal of Business discussing current refinance activity in the Spokane market.

While refinancing activity has increased compared to the past few years, many homeowners are still holding on to the historically low interest rates they secured during the pandemic. Anthony shares insights on how market conditions, consumer confidence, and interest rates continue to influence refinance decisions across our region.

Thank you to the Spokane Journal of Business for the opportunity to contribute to the conversation about our local housing and lending market.

Refinancing activity in the Spokane market is expected to remain low but steady, as ongoing market uncertainty and global events keep interest rates elevated, according to some industry experts here.

🌷🌱Are you Team Let It Bloom or Team Well-Manicured?

As June kicks off, some homeowners are embracing the "Let It Bloom" trend in their yards. But it might not be the best idea in the long run.

Meet Team Vista! 👋

We're excited to introduce Megan Carlsson, who has been serving as the receptionist at our North Office since March.

Megan brings a background in social work, and her role at Vista allows her to continue doing what she enjoys most, helping others and creating positive experiences for those she serves.

Megan has deep ties to the Spokane community. Her parents met at Eastern Washington University, and her grandparents lived in Spokane throughout her life. Originally from Arizona, Megan moved to Spokane about 10 years ago and is grateful to call the Pacific Northwest home.

When she's not at work, Megan enjoys spending time with family and friends. She and her husband are proud aunt and uncle to 10 nieces and nephews and love cheering them on at sporting events, dance recitals, and band performances.

We're thankful to have Megan on Team Vista and appreciate the warmth, care, and dedication she brings to our office every day! 💙

Happy Friday from Spokane’s iconic giant red wagon ❤️

“The Childhood Express” has been a favorite Riverfront Park landmark since 1989, inviting kids (and adults) to climb, slide, and embrace their inner child. Built by local artist Ken Spiering, the 26-ton sculpture was once the world’s largest Radio Flyer wagon until 1997, when Radio Flyer unveiled a larger model in Chicago for the company’s 80th birthday.

Sure, Chicago’s may be bigger, but Spokane’s reigns supreme with a built-in slide and a spot in the park for everyone to enjoy. 😉

Since joining Team VISTA last August, Magan has brought incredible experience, energy, and heart to our team-and we’re excited to officially spotlight her! ✨

With more than 20 years of experience in lending and escrow, Magan brings a deep understanding of the transaction process from start to finish. Born and raised in the Spokane area, she developed a strong work ethic growing up on a farm in Deer Park, and that dedication continues to shine through in everything she does.

Outside of work, Magan’s greatest joy is being a mom. Whether she’s spending weekends at the hockey rink cheering on her son or celebrating her daughter’s journey toward medical school, her kids are truly her “why.” She loves traveling with her family and husband of 20 years, making memories together, and embracing every adventure life brings.

We’re so grateful she chose VISTA Title & Escrow and love having her as part of the VISTA family!

Today, we honor and remember the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. 🇺🇸

To all those who have lost loved ones in defense of our freedom, we see you, we support you, and our hearts are with you. ❤️

One meaningful place of remembrance in our community is the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Riverfront Park. Dedicated on November 11, 1985, this powerful bronze statue was created by Deborah Copenhaver-Fellows to honor the 300 soldiers from the Inland Northwest who gave their lives in the Vietnam War.

🙏 Happy Memorial Day.

Thank you to all the courageous individuals who sacrificed for our freedom. We will never forget you.
