Sammamish is a city just 40 minutes east of Seattle and 20 minutes east of Bellevue. With its close vicinity to these top cities, you will find plenty of homes and highly rated schools all set within a beautifully wooded environment right next to the lake!
I tried hiring a professional videographer for today's video! What do you guys think?
Good stuff Monica! I'll make certain to reach out when ready to offload our current Bothell home in a year or two.
@@hvmondeck Can't wait to help when that time comes!
I like the air shots but I don't notice much of a difference than when you do the recording
looks amazing, super professional!
Great!!! 🎉❤
Paying that much for a house only to get like 4 feet of backyard "space" is a no-go in my book.
For 2.5 mil I much rather take a fixer upper 10 acre ranch somewhere in a fly over state than a beautiful house with a nothing backyard 20 feet from my neighbors lol
When you haven't watched a Monica Church video in a while and forget how good she is at making them
This looks like a dream city, I always said I belong in Washington lol. One day I’ll escape Arizona
My friend took me to the lake when I did an overnight trip to Seattle/Surrounding area in June. Very peaceful and serine, and great for photos (which is what we did). I love visiting less-touristy places as a tourist
This town looks lovely but I have a feeling I'd need a car to get around with limited bike/walk/transit options. I'll probably stick to Seattle for now.
more of a car city for sure!
I grew up in Sammamish. It’s really nice but when I lived there in the 1990’s a 2,500 sq ft house was $250,000. Now it’s $2,000,000. It’s just way too unaffordable for 99% of the population.
Totally agree, we’re nearly getting priced out
Monica you have done a spectacular job on showing us your city.. definitely visiting soon😊
Adding the videographer who kept the camera moving really added quite the touch to this presentation. Great stuff!
Bruh how is audio so coherent 🔥 great job 👏 always such good quality Monica
Fantastic property & city tour! I love the outdoor space in the home. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!
The Video as a whole looks super professional! It looks so much documentary style video!
Everything you said is spot on. I would add that with all those homes and limited access points from that plateau, traffic and the commute can be annoying. And since it’s a somewhat newly incorporated city, it feels more like a bedroom community with basic services without a ’downtown’ and definitely lacks a variety of restaurants or shopping. We lived next door in Redmond for 25 years and know it well.
It’s my city! The one frustration is the lack of good dog parks. Other than that, everything is great-Costco and Trader Joes nearby, great schools, family environment, actual sidewalks…
It’s beautiful out there wow thanks for sharing that inspiring
Beautiful video , great info .
Great post! That word… sammamish is so funny! 😂
It’s a tribal name. Sammamish is a blend of two Native American words - samena, which means hunter and mish, which means people.
All your vlogs are great.
You did an excellent job! I’m so shocked at how expensive it is!
$635/sq ft is totally insane for a house!
Love learning abt new places
Your videos always makes me want to leave Cali and move to Washington! 😍
Beautiful city. It looks like a Hollywood set. The vegetation looks like the vegetation in The X Files. Gr8 vid as usual. 🎥 🇺🇸 🏡 🌺
Great videos❤
So nice!
I’d be super interested in seeing the floating house community on Lake Union. There aren’t many videos which is a shame cause it’s really unique
My only problem with Seattle is the lack of sunshine for few months, but other than that it is so gorgeous ❤
Yes I definitely need that sun😊
Shhh, I’m about to move there!
Nice to see you back on your 'A' game. Dressing so well too, very schmick. The videographer is a nice touch and allows you to focus on delivery including dress sense. Must be nice not to have worry about the filming side of things. Videographer did an excellent job 🪃🪃🦘🦘🤗🤗.
Hey Monica , really nice video! I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your video to reach to a wider audience .
I enjoy your videos but I wanted to see more of the town itself, I feel like you keep turning it into selling a house which I understand you’re a real estate agent, but I would really appreciate more time in the video spent on showing more of the city itself and not only focusing on really expensive homes.
There's no city...lol. it's a suburb
Interesting these homes are so large given that people are having smaller families, if they're starting a family at all. All the new builds here are HUGE with opulent entries, two living rooms (why?) and massive kitchens (sometimes with a butler kitchen, again, why?)... yet the yard isn't large enough to plant a tree in. 😐
I think maybe because the weather is so bad you will end up stuck inside for 9 months out of the year.
I grew up in Sammamish!!
45 minutes to Bellevue
75 minutes to Seattle
The traffic to, within, and getting out of Sammamish will drive you to drinking
I live in Redmond and it sometimes takes over an hour to get downtown Seattle because of traffic. And Sammamish is way on the other side
@@Minka_6Yep
really grinds people the wrong way when creators are so blase about the facts.
It's important to get these things right.
Esp - $2-$3 mil homes
@@AllenZee I had to do that traffic thing yesterday, literally took an hour during rush hours. 3:30-4:30pm. I can’t imagine doing that every day, twice a day.
@@Minka_6I guess if realtors are to be believed, then everyone should be doing this at least 10 times a day to stay healthy and fit .
What is the city doing about walkability? I know most places are very very car dependent but I’m wondering if they are doing anything to make it more like what notjustbikes (CZcamsr on urban planning and design) talks about.
Looks like farmland converted into suburban sprawl
Other advantages... low crime compared to other east side cities, and the commercial area around 228th is walkable and safe for children.
can you review city of Bellevue, please..
anyway i have question: is Clyde Hill part of Bellevue? or is it independent town that separated from Bellevue?
UGH I JUST LOVE REAL ESTATE! Trying to figure out how to claw my way out of being poor so I can afford a home one day haha. Great video, I can totally tell you have a professional videographer here, the shots look amazing!
Q: How many banks do you have to rob to be able to afford a place in Sammamish, WA?
A: A lot !
amazing homes. americans are keen on bathrooms. we are lucky to get two at most
So much info , goodbye LA ... Sammamish here I come .
Thoughts on the rain shadow region (Townsend, Sequim and Port Angeles)?
Those towns are very isolated and far from the greater Seattle area. More retirement, tourist area.
I went to high school there (Eastlake). I hated it because people weren’t friendly lol
I still cannot get used to the crazy prices of homes on the west coast. Yikes!!!!
6:30 I literally added a 0, so 5000 as well. Man
Beautiful house, i wanna buy one 🙂
950 square feet condo For $525 thousand! Only place for sale today.
showed home price?
Im interested in auctions foreclosures.
Raised in Eastgate outside of Bellevue in the early 1960's and now live in kitsap county .. nice area.
Cool! Best city in America... for people who have 2.5 million to spend on a home. Lol.
Best city for millionaires!
I wish one day the waste is shame, not a glory.
5:00
Hey I grew up there! Still have my 425 number
IDK how a city can be voted #1 with suburban hell sprawl and virtually no walkability.
What you doing here?!
This one hurt 😔
They had all that fancy kitchen and didn’t even bring the cabinets to the ceiling? Looks cheap
Homes aren't exactly affordable unless you started a tech company.
what percent of your subs could afford this home? .00001%
Looks like a ghost town! Where are the people?
I live in the area, most people are Chinese, very few white families can afford it. The Chinese are great people very smart.
Can you buy a 3,000 sq foot home for under 2 million?
I thought Sequim was the best?
What I don't get... one pays several million dollars for a luxurious house and yet you still get these ugly eyesores of an electricity- and gasmeter on the outside wall (at 4:18). Over here that stuff is neatly hidden behind a door in the hallway. That said, you presented this video very well 👍
SAM Mam is H. H could be hell or heroine or maybe heroin. Not a lot of people call a Sam a mam.
You forgot to mention that Lake Sammamish is where Ted Bundy used to look for his victims!
If you are looking to launder $2.475 Million from Asia, a lovely 2nd home from your main residence in Switzerland or you have $500,000-$1 million sitting around for a down payment then this one is for you.
You’ll love watching Seahawk games too with your reasonable $15,000 mortgage payment😂
The Best small city at the price of destroying the very nature you yearn for. You all love the Evergreen trees, but the first thing you do is cut them down because your afraid they will fall on you or your house. And of course you can't have cougars and bears walking the Neiborhood's so they have to be killed. In the end you'll wind up just another concrete city. So why not give the nature a break and just move to Seattle.
Um no. Way too cold.
Why are you opening up all the secret locations. People want to live peaceful and private. And you inviting all the bad actors and weird ppl out of state.
She’s a real estate agent, it’s her job.😊
People are going to buy those houses regardless. Why do you care if it’s one of her followers or another stranger?
compass is the worst co
