2011 was a tough year to be a seller

I am so grateful to have served you another year and that you have kept me employed. Thank you to all the past relationships and your referrals that have allowed me to stay in business.

In 2011 I celebrated 20 years of selling residential real estate and my business success has always been entirely in your hands.

 So in 2011, I would like to thank the following people:

Finally sold 41st Ln NW

And a huge THANKS YOU in 2011 to my siblings/family in LA.  As a family, we sold the home I grew up in this summer and they put me to work to get the home sold. Thank you Bob, Kathy, Keith, Kris, Koleen, Kent and Kelly. You all make me proud to be a Lynch. 

I am excited to see what 2012 brings ~ I have all kinds of cool new tech gadgets to better serve.
