Dare To Soar Award!

Regional Vice President of RE/MAX Pacific Northwest Region, Kevin Northrup recently announced top sales rankings for two RE/MAX brokers from Clatsop County.  Marianne Pittard and Bree Phillips, both of RE/MAX River and Sea, placed in the top ten in Oregon for sales volume in June of this year.  Pittard earned the number five spot, and Phillips placed ninth out of 1,300 RE/MAX sales associates in Oregon for that month.  "There are certainly many ways to measure success in our profession, but it all comes down to how many sales you close and families that you help," said Northrup.  "Although the current economy has greatly impacted the real estate industry, both Marianne & Bree are finding ways to be successful in any market.  They continue to demonstrate standards of professional excellence and integrity while building the RE/MAX brand."  RE/MAX River & Sea offices are located in both Astoria & Gearhart.

Forbes magazine recently published an article on America's Most Stressful Cities, which was written by Sara Lynch.  Sara utlilized information from several federal agencies to compile her list of cities that have been impacted by everything from poor air quality to unemployment rates & free-falling home values.  While some might dispute her ranking of cities, I suggest a solution to those residing in the Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA area which happened to rank # 11 and those who call Portland, Vancouver, Beaverton, OR-WA home and ranked # 14.
