I noticed lots of humans catching up on life this summer! Thank goodness. Fridays with Laura (aka, me) is super happy to be back writing. Indeed taking that “space in between” – that space between stimulus and response (a pause in writing) – promoted tremendous creativity and awareness for what is next; together. Let’s get started…

Industry wise there is no shortage on ways to prepare for statewide NWMLS Forms changes taking effect, Oct 3rd. As the attorneys on the “Battle of the Barristers” stated last week best – this isn’t so much a set of forms changes as industry changes. A few additional support tools to keep us preparing & learning…

Forms changes specific. Continued NWMLS learning sessions – virtual and live. See homepage on NWMLS for dates & registration.

About the Windermere Home Run

The Windermere Sand Point and Wedgwood offices have teamed up to put on the Home Run for all of us. This 5k fun run & walk and kids run will help continue driving much needed resources to support low-income and those facing housing insecurity within our community. All details here.

Lace them up, invite others (friends, family, clients) to lace up with you (live or virtual) & I’ll see you there!

If you haven’t yet followed @windermereco.seattle on IG – consider it! We’ll be launching more campaigns soon. And really, we want to follow you back & amplify your content where it makes sense. After the school bell rings this afternoon, check our IG for a fun back to school post spotlighting a few of our WinderKids! The SPS school strike is behind us, kids & teachers are back and we celebrate all of them today at the end of their big week! They inspire all of us to keep learning. Good luck this year, @windermereco.seattle is rooting for you all!

All in, with you. – Laura
