Post: News From Our Key Markets Everett, Seattle, Spokane, and Tacoma

I would like to share with you what is happening in the major Washington markets that we focus on namely, Everett, Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane.

Coastal recreation and city life is now offered in Everett.

-Heraldnet posted an article regarding “Everett offers access to coastal recreation, city life” dated May 12, 2017, that summarizes the life its people enjoy. The publication says Everett is perfectly positioned, which makes it a fantastic central location for a variety of activities and amenities just North of Seattle.

Tacoma’s Tent Cities Coming Soon.

-In Matt Driscoll post from The News Tribune, features Tacoma Mayor Marilyn Strickland and deputy fire chief Tory Green’s project for temporary solutions to Tacoma’s homelessness crisis. The project aims to form a response plan. These involve temporary “transitional centers” spread throughout the city, though details are still in discussion, Strickland’s goal is to make them cleaner and more orderly than what some might associate with centers akin to tent cities. 

Spokane Transit Authority plans $10.8 million complex.

-In a post from Spokane Journal, Spokane Transit Authority has started planning for the construction of a $10.8 million transit vehicle storage building, parking lot, and fuel storage facility, to be located just northwest of its headquarters in west central Spokane.

How long can record-breaking house prices last?

-Seattle Times is asking readers “How long can record-breaking house prices last?” The article’s main question is “Is the Seattle area destined to have permanent high housing prices like many other West Coast cities? Or are we headed for trouble? Please vote.”

Looks like the latest news from our top real estate markets (Everett, Seattle, Spokane, Tacoma) is positive and suggesting further price growth and increased activity.

Michael and Crystal, thank you for your recommendations! Do Plymouth and Guarantee ensure transactions nationally? I am searching for a title company to ensure transactions in Washington State.

Hi Autumn, do you have a specific Title Insurance officer in mind who you would recommend? My understanding is that title insurance officers have lots of leeway in deciding which transactions to insure.

Hi John, you are correct that most loans have a clause, which allows the lender to call the loan. However, from speaking with other investors who have done "subject to" transactions the probability of a lender calling a performing loan is very low.

During the last 2+ years, we've worked with Chicago Title and Escrow. We've worked with multiple Title officers in several different offices (Bellevue, Everett, and Tacoma). We were never completely satisfied with the level of service that we received; however, on several recent transactions, the service was really poor and we felt like our business was not valued. Therefore, we are looking for a smaller investor friendly Title and Escrow company (can be just a Title Insurance company). It would be a bonus if the company had experience ensuring "subject to existing loan" transactions. I would love to have your recommendations, thank you BP community!

Post: Local Washington Based Home Lenders

Building on the list of Title Insurance Companies in Washington and Long List of Home Insurance Companies in Washington State from my previous post, I now created a list of Local Washington Based Home Lenders that can be the key to buying your next house.

If you are looking to sell your house in different areas in Washington including Seattle, Everett, Tacoma, Spokane, or elsewhere within the state and purchase a different house, it’s important to work with a lender who has fast turnaround times. Otherwise, your offer may be filtered out simply because your lender is too slow.

Let's go into the list.
