About Me
MY PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE/FOCUS
As a Seattle native I have an expansive knowledge of the city and its neighborhoods. I specialize in providing clients with professional real estate services for residential homes, townhomes and condominiums. If you're looking to purchase or sell real estate outside the Greater Seattle area please allow me to assist in finding a qualified Windermere agent to represent you.

MY SERVICE PHILOSOPHY
Buying or selling a home is a very exciting event but can also be somewhat confusing and frustrating. As a Windermere agent, your satisfaction is my top priority. I pride myself in communicating to everyone involved in the purchase or sale of your home. From the very start, I will listen to your buying/selling objectives. Once a buyer or home is found I will focus on negotiating the sale in your best interests and keep you continually updated throughout the transaction process. I will endeavor to answer all of your questions in a timely and informed manner, drawing on all of my resources and my extensive real estate network. Rest assured, I’ll be there every step of the way and at your service long after the sale has closed.

MY EDUCATION/QUALIFICATIONS
In order to competently represent my clients, I feel it’s important to keep up with the latest in educational offerings in the real estate profession. In addition to regular clock hour courses and a standard real estate license I also hold a broker's license. As an Associate Broker, I believe I've shown my continuing commitment to my profession and my clients. I also regularly attend classes to enhance my marketing and negotiating skills and hold a BA from the University of Washington.

When should someone get preapproved for a mortgage?

Steven Brown answered:
I suggest all my clients get preapproved prior to looking at homes. Knowing what you can afford and the loan terms are important facts which will help guide you and your agent when it comes time to search for homes. - Tue May 20 2008, 12:38

My sister lived on Beach Drive just around the corner from Alki. I never heard her complain of low tide smells. - Fri Apr 25 2008, 11:16

How can I improve my credit score?

Steven Brown answered:
Don't close old accounts, Keep balances below 35% of credit limit, Always pay on time, Ask creditors to increase your limit but don't use it! Check your report often athttp:// www.myfico.com and make sure there are no errors that negatively affect your score. - Fri Apr 25 2008, 11:14
Steven Brown answered:
A good place to start is to check out some other small developments in your general area. Perhaps, if they are still for sale you can get the contact info for the developer or if they have recently sold a Realtor can find that info for you. - Fri Apr 25 2008, 11:08

Corey,

Are you looking for a lake that allows power boats? There are lots of lakes out there within your 4hr range. Determining what your intended use is will greatly narrow your search. - Sat Apr 19 2008, 12:56
