May and June were record months for John L. Scott. While the company did not release the actual numbers, it said agents sold more homes in June than any month in its 75 years. Company Chairman and CEO J. Lennox Scott attributes the records to a three-quarter point interest rate drop in March. That prompted large numbers of buyers and sellers to enter the housing market. Scott said when interest rates fluctuate, buyers can go online and see what's available in real time. Richard Meyer has joined the sales team of John L. Scott University Place. Hans Brown, an associate broker at John L. Scott University Place, has earned the GRI designation from the Washington Association of Realtors.
