Windermere Real Estate Northwest sponsors Dwell Development on KING5′s New Day Northwest!
Today we aired our latest segment on KING5′s New Day Northwest with Margaret Larson, focusing on the theme of community. For Dwell Development, community is a core value tied to the sustainable lifestyles present in our development at Rainier Vista/Columbia Station in the Columbia City neighborhood. That’s why we are continuing to build there and will be expanding by way of additional micro-communities at this location. Principal Anthony Maschmedt lives and raises his family in Columbia City and thinks its a neighborhood which underscores the philosophy of an energy efficient home, extending sustainability beyond the house itself to how we live, work and play and stay connected to our community.
Our real estate partner Windermere Real Estate Northwest, who sponsored the segment, share in this value. We had the pleasure of hearing from Joe Easterday, Managing Broker Windermere Northwest - Mount Baker Office. Joe shared with us that tomorrow (June 15th) is the 28th annual Community Service Day for Windermere and its agents, and that this year their office is painting out graffiti on buildings. Ted Dietz and Sabranie Coyne, both of the Mount Baker Office and who also live in the neighborhood, will be joining forces with Jonathan Savage and Susan Stasik as our sales force expands.
Joe also shared with the audience that Windermere also supports local organizations throughout the year, including Treehouse, Rainier Valley Food Bank, Little League and Southeast Seattle schools. Since 1989 the Windermere Foundation has donated over $22 million to programs that supports low-income and homeless families. And, every time a Windermere agent sells a home, a portion of the commission goes to the Foundation.
We also covered the latest updates about the House of The Immediate Future, an all volunteer project by Habitat For Humanity Seattle/South King County that is being built at the Seattle Center in honor of the 50 year celebration of the Seattle World’s Fair. This project is in collaboration with The Miller Hull Partnership and Dwell Development - The House of the Immediate Future will make its permanent home this Fall at Dwell Development’s Columbia City 15 home micro-community in the New Rainier Vista. Here’s a picture of where the home will be placed:
