Before snuggling up for those cozy nights by the fire, tackling a list of winter projects will ensure your home is protected from the cold temperatures coming your way this season.

Here’s a list of to-dos and tips to get you started.

  • Wrap your pipes to insulate them against the cold and to prevent them from freezing, which could be very costly to fix.
  • If there’s a winter storm on the horizon in your climate, keep a supply of flashlights and batteries handy. Stock up on firewood (and generator fuel, if needed) as well.
  • If your home uses a furnace, clean out your air filters and heating ducts, making replacements as needed.
  • Reversing your ceiling fan blades to spin clockwise will create a slight updraft, which forces the warm air near the ceiling downward.

We hope these tips help you to feel safe as you hunker down and cozy up this winter at home. For any questions about local market conditions, or for help planning a home sale or purchase, reach out anytime.

Dear Friends,

You may already know that Stephanie, her husband Erik, and their daughter Mary have recently lost their son and brother, Thomas, to suicide after a long battle with his mental health.

Stephanie will be stepping back from a front-facing role in our real estate practice for the time being. Please direct any business to SCTeam@windermere.com, or to Christine’s cell, 425-417-6892.

Thank you to everyone who has already voiced their support. It means a lot that so many people want to reach out. We ask that in lieu of social visits, texts, calls, or flowers, you may support the Kristen family through any of the following means:

- Donate in Tom’s memory to Youth Eastside Services, a Bellevue-based organization that provides services for youths suffering with mental health disorders and other life stressors. (Directions below!)

- Mail or drop off a card to our Bellevue Office, 14405 SE 36TH ST #100, and we'll make sure it gets to them

- Volunteer to provide a meal for the Kristen family through Meal Train. Contact scteam@windermere.com or reach out to Christine for the link.

We appreciate your support and grace through this difficult time. Please keep the Kristens in your thoughts and prayers, and hug your loved ones tightly.
