My phone has been ringing off the hook today thanks to Today, but it did all start at Active Rain so I wanted to share!

Want to see this great Seattle houseboat? http://www.cooperjacobs.com/18075
I really do owe this to Active Rain since I would not have ever blogged or gotten out there on the internet without them. This listing has six new showings set for tomorrow as a direct result of the segment and more to come in the next week. Fingers crossed for a great buyer because I love this houseboat!

About Me:
Seattle real estate has been a big part of my life for well over a decade since I began my career in real estate,but also before that time when I was in the process of purchasing my own first home. Buying your first home can be quite overwhelming,but I have managed to help many first time home buyers along the way.
Move up Seattle buyers and other types of specialized purchasing is a great passion of mine! I love Seattle houseboats and you can find me down on the docks of Lake Union and Portage Bay several times a week. Other aspects of Seattle real estate that I adore include Queen Anne Real Estate,Wallingford Real Estate, Ballard Real Estate, Green Lake Real Estate, Laurelhurst Real Estate, Magnolia Real Estate,andSeattle Waterfront Real Estate.
In addition to being a Seattle residential broker and founder of Cooper Jacobs & Seattle Afloat, I am also a member of CBA (Commercial Brokers Association) and head of the Cooper Jacobs Commercial Division in an effort to provide excellent commercial real estate services to the Seattle commercial real estate industry. With a background in accounting and management, it is my great pleasure to coordinate our Seattle commercial brokers.

How cool. I'm sure it will be gone before the weekend is over.
Congratulations, Courtney! That is great exposure. How did you find out about this?
Congratulations Courtney! Blogging about your niche is really paying off for you, how cool!
Congratulations Courtney that is pretty cool----love the houseboats
Thanks you guys! I am just so happy for my seller! We already have showings scheduled for resulting directly from the show!
Courtney - That's so cool... Priceless in fact... I had been showing homes with Barbara Corcorans brother last year... But this is really cool.. Best of luck but it looks like you wont need it...
That's wonderful!!! You should tell us more about how you ended up on the Today show. Were the show reporters just surfing online and came across a post about the houseboat?
Many years ago I had dinner with some friends I knew in Seattle on a Lake Washington houseboat. Besides the potato pancakes and blintezes which I rememebred best and this was an international group, I loved the lifestyle of a floating home that was totally cool with a great view at sunset. Congratultions on your feature.
Courtney: Congratulations! That's very cool!
Courtney...
It is the power of AR in all of it's majesty! Glad to hear that it brought you fame and soon fortune!
Can't get much better advertising than that. Gonna be a busy weekend.
Congratulations! Keep us posted, and share your secret as to how you got it on the Today show!
That's amazing, Courtney! I'm sure you'll have a contract by Monday!
Now there's one of those little surprises you don't see everyday!! It is a special listing, and deserved the recognition for sure!!
Wow Courtney, The houseboat is cute and you pay almost no property taxes, $500/year is a still... The future buyer of your home will love that aspect of it... ;>))
Hey! Thanks you guys! We have been pretty busy fielding calls and emails. Given the fact that there was absolutely no mention of me on the program, I was surprised at how many people got me after the show:) My favorite part was that Barbara fed that question to Al Roker from the list of questions they had for me on the property.
That's awesome, congratulations! I hope you sell it soon!
Courtney:
Very cool! I miss Seattle, but not the weather so much. I wish I would've gotten the chance to see it, but I missed it.
Courtney that is awesome, good for you and even better your phone is ringing off the hook. The power of the rain.
Courtney... How cool is that... I go for walks along there around lunch time. Congratulations on the feature, this is pretty over the top!... Glad your phone is ringing.
Congrats! It'll probably get sold in the next few days and possibly for more than the list price! My husband spent some of his childhood years growing up in a houseboat and it was quite the experience.
So fun! I love the fact you were mentioned and uber love that it came from Active Rain!!! Congrats and let us know when you are SOLD!!!
Very cool! Good work on your end!
Courtney, I can't believe I missed this - WAY TO GO! I am off to watch the video now - cheers for you!
Courtney I can't imagine how much you would have had to pay for that level publicity - congratulations
I'm so happy for you! How cool! I personally know the power of the Rain, it changes lives!
