After a few years of renting in Phinney Ridge I got the call that it was time to find their forever home. I was so excited! When we started it was hard to tell that theirs would b...

Seattle Home Buyer Stories: Caitlin and Andrew (and Charlie)

Caitlin and Andrew knew they wouldn’t be buying right away when they first walked into Team Diva HQ, but they wanted to know about the home-buying process. I sat down and gave them an hour-long crash course on what it takes to be home buyers. They took time to prepare and plan, and over a year later came back to enlis...

Home Buyer Stories: Shannon and Leo

It’s not uncommon in the Seattle real estate market for first-time home buyers to try out the home-buying process, then take time off to better prepare. There is so much to learn about home buying, so it isn’t wasted time, even if the need to wait can be discouraging. It is especially tricky if you have just mov...

We have know Hollie and Dave for over almost 7 years and in that time they have long since stopped being clients and have become friends.

Size, Condition, Versus Location - Make a Choice

In real estate, it is all about size, condition, or location REGARDLESS of your budget. Home buyers are often in a process of compromising what they want in order to buy a home. It is rare to find a home that fits all three perfectly.

This isn’t cause for despair. Even in a slow market, finding a home that satisfies two out of three (size, condition, location) is a great thing. Savvy home buyers and owners will even find unexpected benefits and solutions to the things that they considered less than perfect. With the right mindset, tenacity, and an experienced real estate pro, you can win in Seattle’s competitive real estate market and fall in love with your own home.

What are your top two - Size, Condition, or Location?

Imagine: A neighborhood by Lake Union with easy access to downtown, north Seattle, and 520. Eastlake is still mostly residential. With fewer amenities and storefronts than the adjacent Capitol Hill neighborhood (or the University District across the canal). However, one finds pockets of commerce and bars along its main thoroughfare. Eastlake Ave, which connects the neighborhood to South Lake Union and the University District Bridge. It

It’s Seattle Pride week and we have so much going on. Events, parties, marches, and FIGHTING FOR OUR RIGHTS. We are trying to ensure the safety of everyone in the LGBTQ community here in Divaland and beyond. Performers need escorts to and from events. We all need to be wary of our surroundings and make sure something is said if we see something weird or off. We’ve made some images to help promote safety and also show that we are going to Pride. With everything going on we need to show our support and be there as one community because we are a wonderful community that deserves to exist! Save and share our images. Post them to your social media. Check in with your loved ones and each other - be safe, have fun and live with PRIDE ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 We here at Team Diva are with you! ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 . . . . #pridemonth2019 #seattlepride #seattlelgbt #seattle #lgbtrealtors #lgbtrealtor #lgbt #lgbtq #pride #queerperformer #seattledrag #seattledragqueens #seattledragkings #seattleburlesque #lgbtpride #lgbtqpride #transpride #seattletrans #transperformer #lgbtrights #lgbtqrights #lgbtsafety #lgbtqsafety
SUPPORT QUEER DADS - Two of my favorite drag performers are under attack by the Alt Right. Diva Dwellers @old_witch_queen and @cookiecouturequeen are Dads to the most adorable four little boys. Today on Father’s Day a Proud Boy/Nazi affiliated group decided to release terrorize this family simply because Cookie is bold enough to do Drag Story Hour at The Library. I did some digging and the people behind this group are part of the group that were the Nazis in Tacoma. They specifically target women of color, lesbians, trans people, and drag queens because they know they are the most vulnerable in the community. Tomorrow we are organizing a group to show support for @cookiecouturequeen at the @desmoineslibrary at 10:30/11. DM me for more details!
Thank you to all of the rad folx that came out to Team Diva’s Pride Happy Hour last night at the @palaceartsseattle (Seattle’s best performance and queer bar). You are what makes Divaland amazing and fabulous! 🏳️‍🌈 Pride Month 🧡💛💚💙💜❤️ . . . #seattlepride #pride #lgbtqseattle
