The Seattle suburb of Brier WA is nestled at the top of Lake Washington with an easy commute to Seattle, Everett, or Bellevue.  Brier Houses have steadily increased and with all of the media hype regarding Seattle's real estate market, I wanted to look at some Brier WA real estate numbers.  Forgive me because I am a real estate agent with a degree in accounting, but I always like to look at the numbers! In order to look at Brier WA 2008 real estate, you first have to look back at 2007.  In 2007, there were 80 residential real estate sales in Brier.  This gives us between six and seven houses sold in Brier per month overall and does not take into account any slow or fast seasonal periods.  Some of the 2007 stats: The average Brier WA home sold in 2007 was a 3 bedroom home and the average...

With heightened security during travel, passports are now required more than ever before.  I am thrilled that they are easier to obtain than they used to be.  My whole family got theirs all together when my daughter traveled to Italy.  I figured with the new laws going into effect that required passports for even Mexico and Canada that I better be prepared.  I was so overwhelmed by the process initially with all of the various background pieces of paper and then the specific sized and formatted photos required in addition. I was very happy to discover that City Hall in Lake Forest Park, WA offered a one stop shop for the whole process.  They took the photo as part of their passport services offered.  It made the entire process much easier - especially since I was getting them for the wh...

Recently the Edmonds school district temporarily closed a walking trail behind Mountlake Terrace High School.  The trail is a vital transportation route for many students who live in both Brier and Mountlake Terrace and keeps them off of more congested streets.  Apparently there was some concern over the lack of supervision for students in these areas and whether or not the trails were being used properly.  Angry parents were told that the City of Brier was responsible for closing the gates and the city thought that maybe it was the Mountlake Terrace Police or the high school itself.  After many phone calls, it was discovered that it definitely was the school district and there was a definite lack of due process which occurred.  The school district failed to realize one of the key reaso...
