Sam: What gets you excited about the green building movement?
Rose: The excitement I get is when I am seeing a lot more of this home being built in our community as I am driving around in Heart of Seattle and few on the East Side. I take pride of able to share and show this home to my potential, past and future clientals” what Built Green homes offer with a Safer, Healthier, Environmental Friendly, and the Engergy efficiency. Knowing that there home they have purchase is going to provide them a better and newer living experiences and be able to utilized this features. The New Sleek Contemporary elevation look to it, features and the interior finishes product. I am always anxious to hold open house on the weekends, looking forward to be and be able to show this homes to Buyers.
Sam: What was your favorite green project?
Rose: My favorite green site project are those homes that was Built with the Great View. When your on the Roof Deck over looking a 360 view of Puget Sound, and or 360 view of Lake Washington, with the Combination a 360 Mount Rainier, Cascade Mountain the combination to be able to see the 4 Views on the Roof Deck. What more can you asked living hear in in the Northwest having a view like that. Recent one that I sold that had a 360 View of Puget Sound, and Mt. Rainier, and the Downtown City Scape, was Builder ISOLA homes, on corner of 30thand Judkins in Leschi - 3003 Judkins Street Seattle.
Sam: What advice would you give to buyers and sellers of green homes?
Rose: My advice to Buyers is buying a green built home is good investment to get into they will never regret , because what the feature it offers. For the Sellers and Builders, to keep up the great work ! of building more of this homes, because they are still a lot of buyers out there awaiting more inventory of this homes to select from. “Supply on Demand” there not enough out there and they sell very quick ! too much buyers not enough homes for sale.
Sam: What do you like most about living in the PNW?
Rose: I have been living here in Washington for almost 18 years now, originally from Hawaii, Island of Kauai. I reside on the East Side, of Issaquah/Preston area on an acreage land with I have a few" Chickens/Hens" as my Pets and they lays fresh eggs daily, and able to have it on your property.“ I like the nature life of having to see both the Evergreen Mountain forestry environment, wilderness smell and the cleanness environment and having Lakes, the Puget Sounds just nearby and have both the combination both of “ City Life” and “Suburb Nature Life”has been great ! I can never asked for more. Best of Both Worlds. Growing up as a child, up to my teenagers years, on the island of Kauai, in which offers lots of Nature Life. We have that here too. I Never get home sick here in the Pacific Northwest, where I grew, it does have the similarity of what Pacific Northwest Offers as well able to live he take a trip natural nature environment, to the forest to go camping, skiing , Ski Resort is just short distance drive from my home, fishing, crabbing or pleasure boating ride, but yet still have a Big City Life , nearby is a great combination. Good long Summer, and combination of Winter, Fall, and Spring be able to see color changes during the 4 Seasons. Though it does rain here a lot in Washington during the winter. Its almost like being on the Island of Kauai where it does rains a lot there too. Kauai is as you known for one of the Wettest Spot on Earth with Plenty of Record Rains. Which I grown custom too :) don’t mind at all.
