reSpace

I’m a millennial property manager who loves big cities, big buildings, and has big dreams. I moved to Seattle in 2016 at the height of Amazonian fever and since then I have leased and managed a myriad of assets. From luxury single family homes in Fremont, Ballard, Queen Anne, and Madison Park to high rise affordable housing in the notorious Pioneer Square. I worked closely with the renter, and I know what they want. It’s really a very simple formula:  stability that does not break the bank. However, given the economics, even the most prosperous of tenants cannot always achieve this goal. I believe that making homeownership affordable again is an existential problem of our time. Affordable housing and neighborhoods are not natural occurrences in prosperous cities.  They are legislated, levied, voted in though a system of tax credits and grants. They take years to develop and when the product is finally ready, it's never enough. Re|Space is an immediate solution for a large buyer pool which until now has been missing out. This alone is a step in the right direction to remedy the housing crisis, and the lack of options for the missing middle. Investment in re|Space is investing in the future – a more equitable one for homeownership. Re|Space is a solution and a start. It’s the best of both worlds, filling an economic gap while providing a human good – equity in shelter for people with great jobs and great credit who deserve to own the place where they live.
