President's Message
This market continues with its load of challenges and we need to make them lead to success. You see, success is not a thing to be waited for, but a thing to earn. Be ready for the challenges that you’ll face with this market and be untiring to meet them! Measure your success by the number of people you make happy. What will count in this market, won’t be the number of opportunities you have but how well you handle them.

Bill Fain
2022 President,
Kent Washington Association of REALTORS®
