August’s NWMLS numbers are in: fewer sales, more listings, and steady prices. With rates softening and choices expanding, buyers may find this fall an excellent time to enter the market. Catch Jeff Tucker’s full Local Look for the details.

Top Fall To-Dos

Clean gutters and downspouts
Prevent clogs that can lead to water damage when the heavy rains arrive.

Check your roof 
Look for missing or damaged shingles to avoid leaks during winter storms.

Seal gaps and cracks 
Inspect windows and doors to keep warm air in and drafts out (and save on heating costs).

Service your heating system
Schedule a furnace tune-up and replace filters to ensure efficient performance.

Inspect chimneys and fireplaces
Clear out creosote buildup before your first cozy fire.

Trim back trees and shrubs
Protect your home and power lines from branches weighed down by wind or ice.

Drain and store hoses
Shut off outdoor spigots and store garden hoses to prevent freezing damage.

Did you know...
Seattle is home to one of the largest houseboat communities in the United States? With about 520 floating homes and several hundred additional live aboard vessels clustered around Lake Union and Portage Bay, these iconic floating residences are a defining part of our city’s waterfront charm. They’ve even made their way into pop culture—most famously featured in Sleepless in Seattle.
