The Home of the Future. What will it look like?I had an interesting opportunity to sit privately with some of Clark County's leading building experts last week to discuss future trends in the building industry. More to the point: What homes will be most in demand in the next 3, 5, and 10 years?The answer isn't surprising. What is surprising is that nobody is building them!We have entered a time when the largest and most wealthy segment of the working population in America is entering retirement. The Baby Boomers.

mr vancouver: Keller Williams RED Day is coming soon! - 04/03/11 09:07 PM
One of the things that I like about being part of the KW organization is the commitment that they make to the communities where they work. RED Day is a nation wide day that is set aside for the Keller Williams agents to go out and really make a difference in their neighborhoods.Here in Clark County Washington, we have tutored at elementary schools, cleaned up school yards, built raised vegetable gardens, among other things in our effort to give back the community. This year our office has already raised over $5000 for the Rock Solid Children's Center in Battle Ground WA.Do

mr vancouver: Why Realtors Shouldn't Sell Their Own Homes - 04/01/11 10:36 AM
There is an investor in our area who teams up with realtors to buy and flip homes. He buys most of his homes in the bank auctions and occasionally he finds a great deal in the MLS.
