Martine is another client that I recently helped purchase a home. This is what she had to say about the transaction:
"Sharon was fantastic in helping me buy my first home. She worked with me through every step of the process, answering all my questions and following up with every detail. She worked with my schedule with ease, so that even though I was only available nights and weekends, we still found my new home in just ten days. Plus, she's provided great referrals for everything from getting the older wood floors refinished to upgrading the furnace. Even after closing she's become my number one homeowner resource!"

Great News For Washington Homebuyers!
Update as of 11/06/09
President Obama signed the Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 into law today. The legislation greatly expands the First Time Homebuyer Tax Credit by making more first time homebuyers eligible for the credit and now includes homebuyers that are not first time homebuyers.
First Time Homebuyers The current law is extended until April 30, 2010. Buyers have until that date to have a signed purchase agreement. There is an additional 60 day grace period to complete the financing. More first time homebuyers are eligible because the new law raises the annual income limits from $75,000 to $125,000 for singles and from $150,000 to $225,000 for married couples.
Current Home Owner
Over 60 percent of current home owners will be eligible for a tax credit of up to $6,500 if they purchase a home by April 30, 2010. These homebuyers must have lived in their home for five consecutive years over the previous eight years to qualify. Qualified homebuyers can get the credit if they purchase a home for $800,000 or less as their primary residence between November 7, 2009 and April 30, 2010. The income limits are the same as the First Time Homebuyer listed above.

I come from a long line of Realtors. My mother, grandfather and uncles were all brokers. In my family, houses were always being previewed, bought and sold. My business is referral based-clients and friends refer me to their friends, families and neighbors. They know I am busy but never too busy for someone that they refer. I work full time, know the contracts, understand how to price your home, know how to write a professional, clean offer and can negotiate and get your transaction closed. I am a Certified Negotiator.
Before I started my Real Estate career I was an Emmy award winning television producer at King 5 TV (Evening Magazine) and KCTS TV (KCTS Connects). My husband is an architect and we have always looked at homes. We bought our 1914 Sunset Hill home in 1995 and raised our three children there. We have lived in Ballard for over 24 years.
