UrbanAsh Confidential- What I have been up to?

Categories: 5th & Madison, Condominiums, Escala, Madison Tower, Random Tidbits, Real Estate News, The Parc, Watermark Tower

A lot of good things are in the pipeline for Spring 2008 and over the past month I have been cranking away on new projects, taking on more listings and trying to balance all and everything in between. Obviously I have had a little trouble keeping up with the posting, but the clouds have parted (except for one dark cloud- aka ?the tax man?) and I can get back into my routine once again!

Sales-
5th and Madison: I have to say that I definitely fell in love with 5th and Madison. As the ?hidden gem? in the heart of downtown, I love the location, finishes and floorplans and have been eyeing #405 myself (currently at $425k/ 808SF). The 05 floorplan is on the southeast corner of the building and has a very open view of the city, park and the First United Methodist Church? on 5th, with 808 square feet, wall-to-wall windows, lots of storage (beware- you build out your own closets!), high ceilings, spacious bedroom/living rooms and an open kitchen? One of my clients is set to close this Friday on #205 and I am sure he will love living there!

Watermark Tower: We gave it a try last September but this time around, #1005 sold to #1004- a perfect combination for one gigantic residence on the northwest corner taking up nearly half of the 10th floor!

Escala: Homeowner?s at the Escala are in the process of selecting their finishes! I went with one of my clients to choose their package and I was really impressed with the standard options. A couple upgrades to look out for?cable/outlets- a whopping $600 each to install them above the fireplace or at the built-in desk and the fireplaces are electric not gas, prices to be determined.

The Parc #328: Just Listed! If you are looking to get into the market, this condo is perfect for your first home. Not to big ($), not to small, very useable square footage throughout, a HUGE deck, brand new and priced to sell. Check it out!

New Website-
I am in the process of launching a new website- SeattleCondoExperts.com! The concept is to be announced on a later date as I am still working on creating the perfect resource for both agents and the public eye.

Seattle Rental Group/ NW Property Group-
We have hired a couple new agents, so being that I am #1 in charge of training, I have been working very hard to create little ?UrbanAshies? for everyone. Everyone is falling into place- Alexandra established a website of her own and has found a focus in sales/leasing of multiplexes, whereas Lillian and Adam are just getting started but good things are surly to come!

Additional Education-
This Spring I will also be working towards my Associate Broker license completing a total of 120 hours of classroom time in real estate law, brokerage management and business management. I am sure completing the coursework and continuing with my day to day operations is going to be a challenge but it is either now or never?

So, apologizes for the neglectful behavior?definitely not my typical A-type personality to leave people hanging!
