My reputation as a leading real estate broker specializing in floating homes in the Seattle area has been a result of my in-depth knowledge and expertise in this unique market. It’s not uncommon for journalists and fellow real estate experts to seek my insights into the floating home lifestyle.

Recently, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Fern McErlane for INSIDER, a digital lifestyle magazine. Fern was working on a piece that explored houseboat lifestyles around the world, from Seattle to Cairo to Amsterdam. Drawing on my wealth of experience, I shared insights into the flourishing houseboat scene in the United States, particularly highlighting the vibrant community on Lake Union in Seattle.

Her article focused on a variety of houseboats and lifestyles around the world, which included Seattle. As the article indicates, in recent years, the trend of floating homes has experienced a significant boom in the United States. One particular area that stands out as a prominent houseboat neighborhood is nestled on the picturesque Lake Union in the vibrant city of Seattle, Washington. This idyllic enclave not only offers breathtaking views of the surrounding natural beauty but also provides a unique and tranquil living experience that captivates both visitors and residents alike. Whether you are seeking a memorable vacation or a permanent haven, this thriving floating home and houseboat community on Lake Union effortlessly combines the allure of waterfront living with the convenience and charm of urban life.

Our floating home and houseboat community in Seattle is perhaps more desirable than any other houseboat community around the country, perhaps the world, given that it’s in the heart of the city just next to the downtown core,” Varona told Insider.

Testimonials

Will

Matt was a great partner in this process. He’s extremely knowledgeable about the area; the architecture (styles, materials, etc), the geography, etc. Definitely a subject matter expert. Additionally, especially as someone new to the area with a limited network, Matt was generous with his contacts which ultimately led to us being able to get exactly what we want, with minimal legwork, and a high rate of speed (esp for financing, and with a local partner). His associates as well were great when Matt wasn’t available to show us properties. If we ever move, we’ll be calling Matt up again for sure. Highly recommend.

Max

Matt was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. It was our first time purchasing a home and he patiently and thoroughly answered all the (many) questions we had along the way. It was great to have Matt and his team on our side during this very seller-friendly time.

J.M

We worked with Matt Goyer to close on our first home. Matt and his team (shoutout to his associate Land Cook) provided us with an exceptional level of service throughout our 6 months of searching and writing offers on homes. We have already recommended his team to numerous friends. We can’t imagine working with anyone else!

Denney

I have worked with Matt on multiple occasions and each time I was very impressed. We were able to find and purchase the properties that I wanted, at the price that I wanted. Matt is professional, knowledgable and knows have to navigate every step of the home buying process, from tours, to inspections, to escrow, to closing. Highly recommend!
