First Google… Now Yahoo... Here come the Relos?

By
Real Estate Agent with Windermere

Rumors where flying and people where making plans for years anticipating the wave of new Google employees.  Hundreds would move into town and into the corporate center in Kirkland. (See my blog from earlier)  When the economic climate changed so did Goggle's plans.  The migration of high tech, high paid new home buyers fizzled.

Now Microsoft to the rescue.   Enter the partnership with Yahoo, 400 Yahoo employees will be hired by Microsoft.  No one is sure where these people will move to... but we d know that Microsoft has reworked its relocation department. 

The real estate company that had an exclusive relocation arrangement with Microsoft for years is now out and new agents at new companies have been selected to help with the new migration.

Let's hope that more people search for homes locally with Yahoo than did with Google.
