Issaquah Highlands has many great events for us to participate in. The biggest one of the year is coming up. It is sort of our 4th of July Celebration. HIGHLANDS DAY! June 28th. It may seem far away but time flies and there is lots to be done.
I have been told it takes about 200 volunteers to put this all together. Have fun, get to know your neighbors and help at the same time. There are carnival games, rides, food, a parade plus much more. Can you help? Contact christy.g@ihcouncil.org
There are also chances to promote your business. Business booths are available Contact Lorrie.t@ihcouncil.org.
Since March I have been updating and posting real estate sales information on this blog. It is in map format. I am posting it this way for those who want a quick look by neighborhoods. To me, looking a a list of homes for sale or homes sold is a bit cumbersome. I like the map and hope you do to.
The map includes sales of both condominiums and homes.
Because these are closed real estate transactions I can post both the listing price and the sales price. Check the balloon icon to see that info.

Note the different colors represent different months.

Sure, we all want like to dream about that nice mansion.
That is why watching my wife Kathleen make Street Of Dreams mansions award winners was so fun. But as I speak with a lot of people where we shop in Issaquah, the perception is that only the rich can buy here.
Starter home prices have been falling, in fact all across the board prices have dropped.
Not only that we are the beneficiaries of the ARCH program. There are many ARCH controlled, or approved, homes on the market. It is a bit of headache going through the ARCH approval process, but at this time it isn’t necessary.
After a reasonable period of time the seller may sell an ARCH home to anyone. The income restrictions are removed. ARCH still controls the sales prices, but that seems to be reasonable, in fact in this market gives a buyer an advantage.
We are experienced with ARCH, we want our local merchants employees to live here, in Issaquah - even Issaquah Higlands. If you investigate, you may not have to work in Issaquah and drive to Puyallup.
FHA financing is also available for ARCH which give people an easier qualifying situation. I am extremely experienced in FHA. FHA helps with lower down payments and when recent credit has been good, but where there may be a credit score problem or past credit problems.
Give us a call if you want some help. Lar
