GoPro: Home Solar Installation

Had the opportunity to video the installation of solar panels and I put a GoPro edit together. The solar home value blog post took time to put together before getting started on the video. I’m pleased how the video edit came together with music and storyboard flow. I would love to hear your thoughts in…

Drone video of a Stanwood Home

Just another day in paradise where and I had the opportunity to fly a home in Stanwood Washington. This home over-looks the Stanwood valley / waterfront and is so close to town and services which makes it such a great home, not including the new carpet, paint, gutters and move-in ready status. It was a…

Drone Flight of a Camano Island Home

Mickie and I have been really busy with real estate. In July alone, we sold 6 homes totaling over $2 million in property value. Crazy huh? Well, the real estate market shows no signs of slowing down and recently we’ve been working out on Camano Island. Here is our latest video home tour which is…

Custom Built Home in Snohomish

Work has been busy, not to much time to blog personally. Yet, there is always time for a good drone video. This home is in the Three lakes area of Snohomish, more particularly on Storm Lake. Along with the beautiful interior still photography, I love the ending scene. The drone flies away from the house,…

Getting Some Work Done

One project I’ve been getting rolling is Snohomish County’s home valuation tool. For many years, I’ve been building, rebuilding, fixing, learning, and working on the Team’s real estate website.

I Don’t Always Go On Listing Appts

I don’t always go on listing appointments but when I do, I grade their driveway. As the Sun crested the Cascade I arrived in NW Firetrail. The road was as expected with downhill waves and spotty concrete, I thought … this will be interesting. The property was nice, the fog was thick, and yet the…

Upgraded the Work Wardrobe

I finally took the next in 2013’s business plan, upgrading the work wardrobe. It was a decision I fought for so long because I am so comfortable, more personally than anything, in jeansm shirts, and a pair of boots. But with a little prodding from Joy, friends, and some colleagues I made the shift to…

Real life can be a struggle

When real life gets hard the only thing left to do in soldier on. Or at least that is what I’m telling myself. As a Marysville real estate broker, I enjoy the benefits of self employment. Whether that is selling enough homes to take time and go skiing or work my butt off to hopefully…

Marysville real estate and business update

The ski season is about over for me and haven’t made any more videos. I’ve been working on a mashup with the footage from the year and I have a short clip that I need to put up but unfortunately I’m terrible with video editing software. The last time I went skiing was at the…
