Redmond, Washington, is probably best known as the home of Microsoft. But if that’s all you know about our gem of a city, you’re missing a lot. Marymoor Park, which hosts concerts in the summer, also features a climbing rock, sports fields, a cricket pitch, a huge off-leash dog park, tennis courts, a community garden and an outdoor theater. Redmond is also home to more than 17 miles of hiking and biking trails. Known as the bicycle capitol of the Northwest, Redmond is home to the state’s only velodrome and each July, the city hosts a bike race around Lake Sammamish. This race is part of Redmond Derby Days, which also includes a parade, live entertainment, a carnival with rides, and fireworks at dusk. The top-notch schools in Redmond draw a lot of families to our community. And our library is world-class, the second largest in the King County Library System. Redmond itself is home to restaurants, breweries and shopping to rival any major city, but if you are craving the bustle, both Seattle and Bellevue are a few minutes away. Though one visit to the outdoor mall called Redmond Town Center may convince you you never need to leave the city again. If you are interested in learning more about Redmond, let us know. We’d love to show you around and help you find your perfect home.
Reviews
“James is a trustworthy, personable realtor who has the customer in mind. He is an expert in his field, and is a great help guiding the buyer and/or seller through the process, whether you are a first timer (as we were when we used him over 10 years ago) or a repeat client as we sold and bought our new home. He makes excellent observations about homes (i.e., as you look at basic things like room size, he will point out things that don't always come to the buyer's mind, like sun exposure, or the price per square foot of the home.) He is a master at guiding you toward your own opinions about each home, without ever pushing his own on you. He was always available and ready, and extremely helpful during the inspection process, again bringing up questions that aren't always obvious to the average homebuyer, but were pertinent and obvious to a seasoned realtor such as James. In selling our home, James bent over backward and always made us feel like the only client he had at the time (even though I KNOW there were others!) I always felt as if we were the priority, and everything he did for us had the utmost detail correct and was always first class. I would highly recommend James as a realtor in buying or selling a home."
