Jordan Rivera's Guide to Olde Town

The Issaquah Depot at 78 First Avenue NE makes a useful starting point for exploring Olde Town. The Rainier Trail follows the old railroad corridor through downtown, while Front Street puts shops and restaurants nearby. On a neighborhood tour, I like to connect the places clients would actually use instead of looking at each destination in isolation.

I helped my buyers organize their questions before reviewing the inspection in our NE Alder Street purchase. We separated items needing specialist advice from routine maintenance questions, compared the available documentation and kept the discussion tied to written findings. The goal was a clear next step before each deadline, with room for the buyers to decide which trade-offs fit their plans.

I helped the sellers prepare for their SE Andrews Street listing by organizing the information a buyer would want to review. We gathered the available maintenance records, discussed how each room would be presented and planned the showing schedule. Before choosing a price, we compared alternatives by location, usable space and condition rather than treating every nearby home as interchangeable.
