Is anyone still in Seattle this week, or is everyone squeezing in one last summer vacation? (Unless you have kids in Mercer Island elementary schools, who started today! And here I thought it was criminal that Seattle Public Schools is starting before Labor Day, assuming teachers don't strike 😂).

We haven’t had much of a break ourselves. Over the past few days, we’ve:

• Handed off keys to a gorgeous floating home on the 2031 dock, which just closed for $1.98M (our fourth floating home closing of the year).
• Helped a buyer score one of the few remaining units at Spire for a killer price.
• Guided a client through the unique process of buying a financed Airbnb condo at the Montreux through their IRA. Hit reply if you want to do this too!

Big News out of Park Row: They just crossed $100M in pending sales! What pushed them over the top was a buyer signing a contract for unit #2103 at just over $10M 👀.
