Let’s get right to the heart of this blog: Real Estate agents. A lot of talk about Real Estate has been that agents get paid too much for doing nothing. In many, many cases this has been very true. Every body has an opinion about Real Estate, and a lot of those opinions have Real Estate licenses.
Real Estate is an experience based business. Classes are nice, but doing deals, and lots of them, is where the knowledge comes from. Every day in Real Estate is an adventure.
Let’s just get to the heart of it. A few agents I recommend are:
Chuck Cady at RE Max
Marlow Harris at Coldwell Banker
Peder Nielson at Home Realty
Bob Melvey at Windermere
David Rush at Windermere
Betsy Terry at Ewing and Clark
There are more and if you would like to contribute more in the comments please do. This should just get us started. My next post is going to be about Windermere Real Estate and why they have so many of the top agents in Seattle.
About David Losh
In 1984 I got my Real Estate license and worked in a small company called Advance Properties. The owner was extremely interested in Real Estate, building, and land development. Most of his work was concentrated North of Seattle. Since the 1970s I had worked for Real Estate agents in Seattle as a contractor, mostly preparing properties for rent, and sale.
After a few years my skill level increased considerably concerning land use, building code, and development practices. Escrow, and lending offices were housed at the Advance Properties building so it was easy to get involved in all aspects of Real Estate. It was very much a family owned, and operated business.
Over the years my Real Estate license has been at a variety of Real Estate companies, and offices. Nothing compares to those early years, or that sense of family. Real Estate has gotten to be corporate owned.
My hope with this blog is to share with you some of the things I've learned. If you have Real Estate needs, or want contractor help, I refer freely to what best suits you. If you should choose to work with me you'll find a great resource.
My Real Estate license is at Skyline Properties in Northgate. Skyline is a locally owned company that is a desk fee office. There is a wide variety of diverse agents. It helps me with some of the other projects that I have, and mentoring that I do, to be able to work with people from other cultures.
Here in Seattle we are close to Vancouver BC and are the gateway to China. Boeing has a great trade relationship with China, as does Microsoft have with all of Asia. We are a culturally diverse community, and it helps me to be invlolved.
