Windermere Service Day June 21, 2013

by Vickie Jennings and Cathy Torgerson

 

Community Service Day

Every year Windermere closes its offices for one day to help make a positive difference in our local communities. It all started in 1984 when a handful of Windermere owners and agents came together to make repairs at a Seattle-area elementary school. Nearly three decades and more than 800,000 hours of community service later, we’ve continued this tradition through neighborhood-enhancing projects in the areas where our Windermere teams live, work, and play.

 

This Year the Puyallup Windermere office volunteered our time at the Old Soldier’s Home in Orting. While there not only did we do landscaping, painting and flower planting, but we also connected with the veterans and their families. As always it was a great time!

I am always working to provide the best service

by Vickie Jennings and Cathy Torgerson

First Class Service

As part of my goal to always be able to provide the best service to my clients I am always looking for ways to improve myself. Recently one of the things I did to accomplish this was to attend the VA & Military Real Estate Specialist course. The key components to this class are to gain a better understanding of how to guide military and veteran clients through the home ownership process, to learn how to identify who qualifies for a VA loan, how to help clients through the process of home buying and selling, plus some of the unique needs of the military and veteran client. Also, this class helps to identify other VAMRES REALTORS® and widen your networking reach. By earning this certification I hope to be able to better help my VA clients and their families.

US home sales rose to 5-year high in 2012

by Vickie Jennings and Cathy Torgerson

Great news from King5.com

WASHINGTON  — U.S. sales of previously occupied homes rose in 2012 to their highest level in five years, spurred higher by record-low mortgage rates and steady hiring.

The National Association of Realtors said Tuesday that sales reached 4.65 million last year. That’s up 9.2 percent from 2011 and the most since 2007. Sales are still below the roughly 5.5 million that are consistent with a healthy market.

Sales dipped in December to a pace of 4.94 million, down from 4.99 million in November. November’s figure was revised lower, but was still the highest in three years.
