This is the question being discussed next Thursday (12/6/18) at 6:30 pm at the Langley Library by Tom Trimbath, a broker in our Coldwell Banker Tara Properties Bayview office. Per Tom, “Growth versus preservation has always been a balancing act, and is amplified by Seattle’s record setting real estate market. The island is more complex and so is the housing market, the local economy, and our culture(s).” Come by and join in the discussion with Tom and members of our community.

Dianne was the Friday drawing winner from our Whidbey Island Area Fair booth and Tereese was Sunday’s winner. We really enjoyed talking with people as they stopped by our booth, whether it was about real estate, our beautiful island, the economy, the community, or a variety of other topics. Coldwell Banker Tara Properties has a booth every year in the Commercial Building at the Fair. Plan to stop by next year for some stimulating conversation and a chance to win your own gift certificate.

Ryan’s House for Youth is hosting a dunk tank this year at the Whidbey Island Area Fair in Langley. Marchele Hatchner, one of our Freeland office brokers, volunteers for that organization and she has agreed to be dunked on Friday to help raise money for this non-profit. Come on out to the fair and dunk Marchele (the weather is supposed to be pretty warm, anyway). And, when you’re at the fair, stop by our Coldwell Banker Tara Properties booth in the Turner Commercial Building and chat with our experienced brokers. We’re having a drawing every day for $50 gift cards.
