do all women love long, hot showers?

It’s the little things in life.

Do you love a long, hot shower?  I’ll get to the point in a second…

I’ve been working for Belmark Homes, a small, quality, and reputable builder on one of their new construction projects, Shasta Ridge, which is in Marysville, WA.

A couple days ago, the construction manager was giving me the rundown of all the products they use and why.  It was great  since often the knowledge I arm myself is more focused around the transaction, the forms, strategy, and the process.   Construction and building products are good to know, too.

Since Shasta Ridge and Abbey Road are built by the same builder (Belmark Homes), my tour guide was comparing the two projects quite a bit, since he knows I’m familiar with Abbey Road, which is in Bothell.

Maybe the most memorable quote from my little orientation was as I was being taught about the super energy efficient tankless water heaters at Abbey Road.

“You’re a woman, you like to take hot showers.  You can take a shower for 20 hours and you won’t run out of hot water”

Thought it was funny.  Do we have that reputation?

Do you want to be able to take a 20 hour long hot shower?

Consider Abbey Road.   All homes for sale at Abbey Road, Bothell here.

you can buy a home, but you will never ever steal a home

People are obsessed with deals. They’ll walk through a home and notice a stain on the carpet, and/or a missing dishwasher. “I’m gonna offer $3000 less because that’s how much I’ll need to spend for this place to be livable.  And I’ll try for an extra $3,000 lower than that, just so I can get…

do you want to live in a 1.5 million dollar home?

I do. Shoot, I want to live in a two million dollar home.  I daydream about that kind of stuff. Do you know what you’d need to have for a down payment for that kind of purchase? More than I can ever imagine just…”saving.” But… What if you buy a house, or a condo, when…

two bedroom condos #FTW

The other night, I had some friends over.  Two girls were talking about finding a new place to live.  They’re students, young, and work part time.   They’re both at about the end of their leases and looking to move out together. I understand that some towns and some neighborhoods are more expensive than others, but…
