Today I'm really excited because I get to talk about some more details about my upcoming 2025 State of the Market event, which takes place online this coming January 22 from 9:00 AM to noon. You've got to be there! Let me tell you why this year is so important.
At my 2023 State of the Market, we had never seen so many housing bills proposed in the legislature, but this year we have even more headed our way. I've never seen so many passed and so many new housing bills presented at the state level over the last few years. Our state – and many others – are finally recognizing the we are in the middle of a housing crisis and things we never thought would happen are now occurring.
For example, the mayor of a city close to me, Bellingham, just passed an interim ordinance to eliminate some parking requirements in new construction, because it's hard to build when there are too many parking restrictions. We need more housing. Cities and counties are faced with these needs and the result will be changes that we see over the next few years. We are going to be talking about resale, new construction, and middle-housing.
For the last year I have had the opportunity to work at the local, regional, and state level in legislative affairs around Washington State's housing industry. Boy, do I have the inside scoop for you this year!
Join us, January 22nd from 9:00 AM to noon for this incredible online event. Just go to our website and you can register there or give us a call at our office at 360-527-8904 and make sure you save the date because this is going to be an epic State of the Market.
