We have also come to appreciate that home ownership is about more than accumulating equity…it is about creating a lifestyle & embracing a community.   When you purchase a house you have a HOME, a place that is yours that can provide years of comfort & enjoyment.

SELLERS vs. BUYERS MARKET

In every market there are advantages and disadvantages for buyers and sellers.  Home prices dropped significantly in 2009, which is a disadvantage for most sellers.  But many sellers are buyers too.  The current market is very favorable for home buyers- with historically low interest rates, low prices, and lots of available homes for sale.  

For many people, selling and buying now would provide a better financial return than waiting for prices to go up again before they sell, due to raising interest rates and home prices. 

WANT TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU?  START WITH SOME RESEARCH.

The links on this page, will help you search for properties that are currently on the market, sign up to get e-mail notifications of new property listings, find out about various communities or areas in Puget Sound, find out the value of your current home, find out about local schools, and much more.  Internet research is a great first step in the process of buying or selling a home, and I hope this website is a helpful resource for you.
