Mary works, all the time, for her clients. She has a spooky, I mean spooky in a nice way, detailed knowledge of houses, and neighborhoods where she works. She told me a story about a house where she recounted the buyers, and sellers over the span of forty years. It was a detailed history of the home, going back to when it was built, and why it changed hands. It never got remodeled, it was a move up buyer home that was in a perfect location.
She told the story with a matter of fact point that the value of the house was solid, it is what it is, and some one should buy it for the price it was listed for.
That makes it sound like Mary’s a big talker when she is actually too busy for chit chat, or preoccupied. Constantly moving forward with great attention to detail she engages her day with the tasks she has to do for her clients. Mary is absolutely brilliant.
This is the agent you want on your side. When working for you she keeps track of what your goals are. As she moves through her day of working with properties, being in the field, keeping track of her geographic area, she’ll call you when she has results.
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.
