Monte, it was a pleasure speaking with you about your home on East Roy. This page continues that conversation — a personalized look at how I can help you evaluate your next move, understand the market around your home, and decide what comes next with clarity and confidence.
Monte, your home sits on East Roy in the heart of Capitol Hill — one of Seattle's most consistently in-demand neighborhoods. Well-priced one-bedroom condos here continue to attract serious buyers, and recent closings nearby show that buyers are confirming real value for homes of your size and setting.
When we spoke, you mentioned you were weighing whether now is the right time to move. The market data is genuinely useful here: a few comparable one-bedroom units on and near your block have closed recently, and there is active competition that helps us see exactly how buyers are responding to homes like yours today.
I won't suggest a listing price here — that's a decision we make together at your listing appointment, grounded in your goals and the most current data. What I can share is the verified comparable activity below, so you can see the landscape clearly before we talk.
Monte, here's how I'd help you move toward the outcome you're hoping for — at your pace, with the information that matters.
You're considering whether now is the right moment to sell. A listing appointment gives us space to look at your timeline honestly — whether that means moving soon or simply understanding what a sale would look like when you're ready.
Your East Roy condo has a setting buyers genuinely value. I'll show you exactly how I'd present its strengths — the light, the location, the lifestyle — so you can see the strategy before deciding anything.
Booking a listing appointment is simply a conversation. We review the numbers, the plan, and your options together. You leave with clarity — whether or not you choose to list right away.
That's the question at the center of our conversation, Monte. When we spoke, you were weighing whether the timing makes sense for you. I won't push you toward a date. At our listing appointment, we'll look at the most current Capitol Hill data alongside your personal timeline, so the decision rests on real information — not pressure. If now isn't right, you'll know that with confidence too.
Pricing is a strategy, not a guess. I'll walk you through the recent comparable sales near East Roy, the active competition, and how buyers are responding to one-bedroom condos like yours today. Together we'll land on a position that protects your value and attracts serious buyers. We'll review all of that in detail at the listing appointment — you won't be asked to commit to a number before you're ready.
Less than you might think. My plan includes complimentary cleaning and professional staging, so the heavy lifting is handled for you. At our appointment, we'll walk through your space together and decide what, if anything, would meaningfully improve how buyers experience your home. You'll know the full scope before anything begins.
That's completely okay — a listing appointment isn't a commitment to list. It's an opportunity to review your options and make an informed decision. Many of my clients use it simply to understand where they stand. If you decide to wait, you'll do so with a clear picture of your home's position and a plan you can return to whenever the timing feels right.

View on Zillow →Monte, for some sellers it's helpful to discuss a more deliberate launch — one where we quietly prepare the home, time the introduction, and shape the marketing before anything goes broadly live. At our listing appointment we can explore whether this kind of approach suits your goals and timeline. It's simply one option among several, and we'd only pursue it if it feels right for you.
I'll never promise a particular outcome — only a thoughtful, personalized process.
