The real estate market in Washington is heating up — fast!Updated homes? Flying off the market.

Remodeled kitchens, refreshed bathrooms, move-in ready in cool neighborhoods — buyers are jumping on them.
What’s not selling? Homes that need major updates. Why? Because the cost of remodeling is sky-high right now.

A great master bath remodel? That could easily run over $100K.
Contractors are booked out. Materials are expensive.
Buyers today don’t want projects — they want turnkey.

Today I was showing a beautifully updated home, and multiple buyers were literally driving by asking if they could see it.
It’s not even listed yet! That’s how strong buyer demand is for well-priced, updated homes.

Buyers: If you want a clean, fresh, move-in ready home — call me now. I work 7 days a week and I love showing homes.
Sellers: If your home is updated, now is a GREAT time to list. Let’s price it right and get you top dollar.

SOLD! A Heartfelt Journey with Some of My Favorite People

This one is incredibly special to me.

I’ve officially helped Christina and Shawn buy their FOURTH property — and yes, we’re still going strong because I’ll also be helping them sell another home soon! I honestly can’t put into words how much this means to me. What started out years ago as a client relationship has turned into a genuine, lifelong friendship. From their first home to now, it’s been an amazing ride. And every time they call me to help with another real estate goal, I’m honored beyond words.

This is what I love most about real estate — the relationships. I’m not just here to sell houses. I live and breathe real estate. This isn’t a job for me — it’s a passion. I eat, sleep, and dream about helping people find the perfect home or investment. And when my clients become friends, when they trust me enough to come back again and again — that’s the real win.

Christina and Shawn, thank you for trusting me once again. Even though Shawn couldn’t make it for closing day, we made sure he was there in spirit — and in the photo! Christina and I couldn’t stop laughing and smiling because the joy was so real. You knew when you found the one — and sure enough, we got it under contract, and now you get to enjoy your dream home.

This is why I do what I do.
90% of my business is referral-based. Clients come back because they know I’ll go above and beyond — whether it’s in Olympia, Lacey, Tumwater, or anywhere in Washington State.

I’m Ron Rougeaux, a licensed managing broker and proud real estate agent in Olympia, Washington. With over 13 years of experience, I help buyers, sellers, and investors all across Thurston County, Lacey, Tumwater, and beyond. Whether you’re looking for your first home, a luxury waterfront property, land to develop, or an off-market investment — I’ve got you.

If you’re wondering who the best real estate agent in Olympia, Washington is, or who to call when you’re buying or selling in Washington State, I hope you’ll think of me.

This isn’t just a sale. It’s a story. A connection. A lifelong client relationship that means the world to me.

Congrats again, Christina and Shawn. Let’s keep making magic!
