PRESENTATION FROM 6:30 – 7:30 PM
Q&A TO FOLLOW
Did you know that home prices in King County are up 8% complete year-over-year and in Snohomish County 11%? Despite the pandemic, home sales in King and Snohomish Counties through Nov 30th, 2020 are both up 5%. While 2020 was a challenging year there was also a lot to be grateful for. I tried my best to stay focused on the silver linings, and the real estate market was certainly one of them!
The New Year is the perfect time to reflect on what has happened, where we are at, and where we are headed. I think this year more than ever this type of reflection and planning will be key for peace of mind and successful pivots. With that said, the special invitation above is not one you will want to miss. My office has commissioned Matthew Gardner, Windermere’s Chief Economist for the 12th year to provide our clients with a thoughtful and well-researched forecast for the local real estate market and the economy overall. He will shore up final statistics for 2020 and look at what the future holds in regards to our country’s and region’s economic stability and the strength of our local housing market.
This year it will be a virtual event via the tool we all got to know well in 2020, Zoom. If you would like to attend, please call, text, or email me by January 13th to be placed on the invitee distribution list. I will send you the link to the event prior to the event on the evening of January 20th. Then, you can snuggle up on your couch and listen to what Matthew predicts we have in store on the economic front. Personally, I am very much looking forward to what he has to share and hope to take it all in “virtually” alongside you.
Below is a sneak peek that includes his national forecast, check out the video below. Let this get you started on your education journey and help prepare you for what he has to share about our region on January 20th. It is always my goal to help keep my clients informed and empower strong decisions, now more than ever.

If you follow me on social media, you might have seen that my office coordinated a food drive just before Christmas, and wow did all of you respond! In just this one fundraiser, we raised over $10k and almost 2,500 pounds of food for our neighbors in need. Amazing! This could not have happened without the support and contributions from our clients and friends.
It was apparent early on that food insecurity was prevalent in our community due to the pandemic. We quickly adapted our community service efforts and made this our office’s focus throughout 2020. Since May, my office did 4 food drives with tremendous responses for each, thanks to you. In total, we collected $23,919 and 5,590 pounds of food for local food banks in 2020. What an outpouring of love and compassion!
Thank you, and Happy New Year!
