The Divas love these fab Diva Dwellers, Holly & Dave. As soon as we met it felt like we were long lost pals. Our first meeting was quite interesting. Holly & Dave had submitted an offer on a fab Diva Dwelling that we listed in 2012 (yes – not with a Diva agent) and it turned into a very intense multiple offer situation. Lucky for us – that house was not meant for Holly & Dave and they ended up coming to the Diva side. Apparently they were so impressed with the marketing of our Diva Dwelling that they decided to contact us about buying a new home and selling their home in Leschi. As soon as we met I knew it was a perfect match!
Holly & Dave have a penchant for fab design so house hunting with them never had a dull moment. From stunning modern designed view homes to charming central area co-ops, we saw it all. These two have a joie de vivre that makes them always a fun to be around. Beyond sailing around the Sound on their boat or biking around the city, they also love great food, good wine, and travel – three of the Divas’ favs as well. We had such a great time giving their mod house in Leschi the Ten Step Plan to Diva Listing Fabulousness (not that it was hard for this home to be fabulous) and of course, easily sold it in seconds flat! We are forever Holly & Dave fans!

Holly knows the board president, Esther Handy, who is the Community Liaison for Council member Mike O’Brien and who reached out recently to get us involved. Holly is also a member of the Board of Advocates for Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest because not only do they tirelessly fight for what little reproductive rights women still have, but it also just so happens to be one of the BIGGEST political advocates for LGBT and transgender rights in the governmental and public health sectors!
- What do you love the most about working with your Divas? Their passion for what they are doing, their work ethic, and their humor. Not to mention their dogs.
