We found Scott Monroe while searching on WS Blog for “Best realtor in WS”. We more than agree.
Selling our home with Scott was an amazingly fast process, we had an offer within hours of listing our home,but his efforts went above and beyond the sale.
Our experience with Scott and his associate broker, Molly Kemper, exceeded our expectations by far. From our first meeting, to staging, to listing, they were reassuring voices over the phone when problems arose and helping hands with all the details too. And though he had nothing to do with said problems Scott was willing to jump in and help work things out by phoning an associate for advice or calling in a favor. Whatever we needed for this deal, Scott made happen to the best of his ability and he and Molly were always there to answer questions and offer advice with our concerns. Admittedly we can be high maintenance clients at times and we were both always received with kindness and patience regardless of the importance of the issue. (Even pillow sham emergencies,for example) :)
Scott also helped us buy our present home and on both the buy and sell, the expertise he has in real estate was invaluable and we appreciate how he and Molly treated us not just as very valued clients, but as friends. We know this is not a unique experience. It’s how he is and does business. It made a couple of stressful life changes and huge business transactions for us a more pleasant experience.
We were lucky to have them by our side and happily recommend Scott to anyone inside or outside WS.
Rolly and Lynn GatesWonder why we have not heard more on the “JACK BLOCK PARK TRANSIT CENTER” ?
The Jack Block Park location, just a few blocks north of Spokane Street on Harbor Ave. A perfect choice for West Seattle’s Light Rail Transit Center. But Sound Transit is looking the other way, without respect for the best interest for West Seattle.
This is the only location in West Seattle where ample acreage is available for parking and a beautiful Community Transit Center for west Seattle Light Rail riders.
Space for 1500 car garage. Riders could park and ride to downtown locations. As in comparison to Spokane Street where only limited parking would be available.
Jack Block site would allow the Water Taxi to be moved from existing site to a new Pier at Jack Block Park. This would ease parking problems near Don Armeni boat launch, Seacrest Pier, and Salty’s. There is no parking available for beach walkers presently. Moving the Water Ferry away from the Seacrest Pier would also reduce wave disturbances to Paddle Boarders and Kayaks north of its present location.
Light Rail from Downtown would cross either under or over the Duwamish Waterway, stopping near Delridge/Chelan and then curve to the northwest to Jack Block Park.
From there two tunnels, one west to Admiral District, and one southwest to Avalon and West Seattle Junction.Why haven’t we not heard more about this location?
Ask you City Council, or better yet ask the Port of Seattle which owns the parcels.West Seattle, Don’t get fooled again with promises of expensive overhead tracks.

I was wondering if there are any banking types out there that can answer a question;
I went to one of my banks and submitted a transfer request in the 3 figure range. After about 5 minutes of fumbling around, I hear the cash counting machine start churning out bills. To make sure, I clarified that I wanted a transfer. Not a withdrawal. They said, yes were are doing it.
I have never heard or seen cash from a till drawn to put from one account to another for a transfer of funds. Is this normal???
Thanks in advance for your help.

I was at a WS hair salon recently, where I’ve been a semi-regular patron for several years. The previous time I was there was about three months ago. When I checked out after my haircut, the manager informed me that at my previous visit, they had accidentally charged me for a men’s haircut rather than a women’s cut, and I still owed them $13. She had added it to my current bill and after some hesitation, I paid it, after expressing surprise and the wish that I’d been told this when I made the appointment. (She explained that she hadn’t looked up my account when I made the appointment.)
But the interaction left a bad taste. I felt that since it was their mistake, they should absorb the cost, or at least have called me immediately after the earlier haircut to let me know, rather than surprising me three months later with a high bill for a simple haircut.
I would have felt better if the manager had acknowledged that by rights they should simply absorb the (gender-based) cost difference, but asked if I might be willing to cover the difference anyway — and I might well have said yes from a spirit of generosity, but I didn’t like being required to pay it.
Am I off base? What would be your response?
Topic: Best Chocolate Cake around?
Seems like it’s hard to find a restaurant around here (not even just W. Seattle) that makes a good, large piece of chocolate cake!? Want to celebrate son’s birthday and that’s what he really wants.
The Met is always a good choice but kind of a pain to get to (and kinda pricey!). Any other aficionados mind telling me where they go for chocolate cake? Ballard, Magnolia, Bellevue are not too far to go for this!!!
1st world problems of course…. :-)
