Two constant things about Issaquah Highlands are change and choice. The New Home Information Center has even changed locations. That is not new news to anyone who lives in the Highlands because you have to drive by the place it used to be as you come and go. The same great help and info are still available at 1101 NE High St. #103. You can’t miss the signs. And they still have popcorn and Judy, too.
There are big homes, small homes, condos, live-work spaces, homes with acreage, homes with small yards, high rise condos (sort of), townhomes, apartments, inexpensive homes and pricey homes. Contemporary homes, traditional homes, craftsman homes, homes with views, green homes, homes next to parks. The list goes on.
You can live in places like Huckleberry Circle, Vista Park, Brighton on Park, Wisteria Park, Starpoint, Dahlia Park, Harrison Street, Roanoke Woods, Chesapeake Landing, The Cottages, Ravena, West Highlands Park, Magnolia Park, Village Green. It is not by accident that many names have park in them because Issaquah Highlands is almost like living in a park, there are so many of them. Convenient amenities continue to arrive in the form of World Pies, Alice’s Beauty Salon, Le Chic Pet, Sip Restaurant, Marcelas, Highland Cleaners, Rice n Roll, Caffe Ladro, Curves, MK Ballet Studio, Nine Bar Espresso, Subway, Sorella’s and the High Street Mall is underway.
Many events and opportunities for fun are offered throughout the year, such as Highland Days, Easter Egg Hunt, Fall Festival and many more. This just touches on everything Issaquah Highlands has to offer. Come see for yourself.

Recently I posted about under $400,000 and yesterday over 1 million in asking price. Here is the Issaquah Stats for current homes for sale in the range between $400,000 and 1 million dollars. These are active Issaquah listings on January 12th. 2008.
There are 208 homes for sale. The Issaquah prices under $800,000 currently seem to have the best sales movement.

Twenty homes have sold in this price range, half of the period being a seasonal December period. These statistics, unlike over 1 million in listing price do not indicate a buyers market on the whole.

Yesterday Kathleen and I spent some time with buyers who are moving in this week to Starpoint Condominiums. Before making their purchase they looked at over 60 condo projects. There must be a reason. How about 10?
Before I give you 10 reasons to buy in Starpoint: here is a link to an article Kathleen wrote yesterday and a link to an inside view of the model home.
1 - The quality of the interior and exterior construction.
2 - Most have incredible views.
3- The secure out of the weather underground parking.
4 - Close to Ashland Park, Central Park, and the mini soccer field.
5 - The soon to arrive main floor retail.
6 - The pleasant outdoor atrium with views and sitting areas.
7 - The secure entry and lock n leave possibilities.
8- Value in the pricing.
9- Still 22 units for good selection.
10- Elevator access.
And of course it is in Issaquah Highlands
In compliance with The Northwest MLS rules we have written permission from the listing agent to provide you this information. Both Kathleen and I are available to introduce you to this fine property.

Near the top of Issaquah Highlands and you are on Harrison Street. This interesting street of custom homes is seeing a lot of construction going on or recently finished. These buyers were serious, some with serious views.
And there are a couple of nice park areas to enjoy, one at each end of the street.
The requirements for Harrison Street are similar to Grand Ridge Drive.
