The bird on the door

In 1992 our young family was looking to move from renting to owning our living arrangements. We were living at Sammamish View Apartments (think the Greenbelt next to the tunnel that goes under I-90). When we started to look everything seemed to expensive. $150,000 or more to a 2 parent working family.

After looking for months we found an older house built in 1964 with a cute woodpecker door knocker in the Lake Hills Neighborhood. Price tag $193,000. The loan approval process was very stressful and we could not imagine borrowing that much money. Finally the loan was approved and we became home owners. 2022 Valuation $1,450,000. I guess we made the right choice. I hope you get to live in Bellevue also.
