There were only 14 Broker Open houses in all of area 710 today which is the typical tour day for the area. Even though the last three weeks especially have been extremely quiet in Seattle real estate overall, I would still have expected just a few more since area 710 encompasses such neighborhoods as Laurelhurst, Windermere, Ravenna, Hawthorne Hills, Wedgwood, and more.

As it was, the highlights of the trip were High’s listing in Laurelhurst and Mary’s listing in Windermere (I liked the pool). I also enjoyed the Seattle brokers I was touring with – Molly Cartwright from Cooper Jacobs Real Estate and Steven Brown from The Dwelling Group.
