November Newsletter - Election Edition

November's monthly e-Zine focuses on political housing issues and preparing for a La Nina winter.

Also, congratulations to Rob Stevens for drawing the winning raffle ticket at the October Open House.  Next Open House March 30th.

Vote for housing-friendly candidates

Housing-friendly candidates in King County help to keep housing affordable. Legislation that adds cost and complexity to building and renovating single family homes are simply passed on to the consumer.  Housing-friendly legislators understand how the industry works to maintain sustainable and affordable communities.

2010 Remodeled Homes Tour

Good turnout, excellent quality of prospective customers.

Each year, a Saturday and Sunday tour of some of the finest renovators in King and Snohomish counties put on a tour of completed remodeling projects.  The event allows for the public to tour what cannot be portrayed in photographs.

This year's Remodeled Homes Tour was organized largely on the West side of Lake Washington.  Our home was situated on the SE portion of the Sammamish Plateau.  And although only receiving 40 guests during the 2-day show, we had a lot of enthusiasm about our quality of work and Design Build process.

Four appointments were set during the show and 3 others pending.  Out of some 20 couples, a 14% yield is higher than we've received in many years.

We look forward to showcasing more of our work to the public throughout the year and at the 2011 RHT.

Open House - October 2010

This is the 3rd Open House TR has hosted this year.  May was a wonderful turnout of Redmond business leaders.  The date in July was so that the A/C registers became the main attraction.  Last night's event yielded the nicest weather of the week and certainly included a wonderful group of people.

Frederick's Appliance donated a $400 wine chiller that was raffled off at $10 per ticket.  With his single chance, Rob Stevens won out of a field of 23 ticket buyers.  The total of $230 was given to Ezzy from HopeLink, the charity of choice, who made a gracious presentation about how their organization helps the community.

Our next Open House will be in April of 2011.
