Hanging it up, for now

Back when I started this blog, Dustin remarked on the excellent Rain City Guide, "The problem with most real estate blogs is that after an initial flurry of activity, the bloggers quit making regular updates."

You can probably tell from the lack of posts that he was right in my case. Unfortunately, I'm not finding nearly the time that I had hoped to keep it going. I'll leave it online, for now, but I don't expect to be making any more posts for the time being.

At the very least, I hope this blog showed the value of reporting news about specific properties. Part of my inspiration for starting was that a lot of real estate blogs deal too heavily in big trends and news without also looking at how those developments play out on individual sites in their regions. While those broad issues are important, and I tried to explore them here, they can become too abstract unless you also show what's happening at the house across the street or the building downtown.

In my absence, be sure to check out the links to the right for a variety of real estate sites and blogs about Seattle and other cities.

Thanks for reading.
