I think the old photos make you feel sentimental (even if we didn't live in the home at that time). We'll probably include a photo of this home when we ever sell it! Kasha, that is very cool!

We sold our house within three days. The only request the buyer had was that we leave the old picture of our home in the house. I believe this photo helped us sell our home for the full asking price!!! We just sold our home and our realtor recommended to leave the photo from Rain City out for all interested buyers to see.

These photos were indeed part of The New Deal program. The hand written appraisal reports are a pretty interesting read and worth the money alone. The reports we got on our house dated from 1907 to the 1980s, pretty cool stuff. I bought a photo of my home a few months ago and framed it. These photos were indeed part of The New Deal program.

Is that "the process"? What is the email supposed to say? What does it cost and whom do you pay? I'm a little confused about the particulars of "getting" it. Rhonda,

I sent the email for my 1921in Kirkland. Is that “the process”? What is the email supposed to say? What does it cost and whom do you pay?

I’m a little confused about the particulars of “getting” it.

Maybe a RCG reader can confirm this? If you buy the records (a bargin for less than a buck, I believe) they do provide square footage, tax records, remodeling info...etc. This property happens to be in West Seattle.

Was it done in conjuction with property tax assessments, perhaps? Hey Rhonda,
