South Lake Union Lottery Has Begun

September 20th, 2006 by Matt · 65 Comments · Enso, Rollin Street, Veer Lofts, Vulcan

From an email from the SLU folks today:

Just thought I would let you know the lottery drawings for at least Enso and
Veer have begun. Day 1 of appointments for Enso is January 23rd. Day 1 of
appointments for Veer is December 4th.


I entered all three lotteries and haven’t received any calls yet. Also, those home appointment dates are way in the future. I really rushed to sell my home in Canada so I’d have some cash on hand for the 5% deposit and it looks like there really was no hurry. The good side of this is that by December we’ll have a better picture of the condo supply and demand picture.


Post your appointment dates as you get notified :).


Update: I got a call for Veer. My appointment is on December 8th at 9:45am. People are given 15 minutes to review the board (so presumably the next appointment after me is at 10am) and then they expect it will take an hour to an hour and a half to complete the paperwork. If they started Veer appointments on the 4th this puts me fairly down the list which sucks. The lady who called me did say that there have been a number of people who haven’t RSVP’d within the 8 hours, others have said no thanks, and others have purchased elsewhere. She also confirmed that the models will be unveiled early to mid October (but Vulcan is slipping on lots of dates so I don’t know how solid that is).

    I got my call last Friday morning, while I was on my way to Vancouver, Canada. Didn’t get back until late sunday, so that’s why I was a little behind in posting.

    Dec.10th @10am. I might have to do a POA, if I’m still crabbing in AK. Any thoughts on the “flexi’s?”

    Great web site. I just found about it.

    We got our calls for both Enso and Rollin on 9/14 and 15. The Enso appt. is 1/25 and Rollin is 2/11. With all the talk about order I’m now concerned that we’ll end up with undesirable units!

    I was called on 9/21 and have an Enso appointment Jan 25. Has anyone received confirmation from the sales team that in fact all lottery entries were called? Or is that just speculation? Just curious, thanks.

    My original Veer appointment time was Dec. 6th at 10:15am and is now rescheduled for Jan. 15 at 10:15am. Does anyone have any idea how the set back is affecting things?? Are people more or less interested now?

    I was excited about this project six months ago when they threw that big bash down in SLU but now with each delay my interests wanes and I’m more excited about projects like the Trace Lofts.

    I’m not part of the Rollin Street lottery but am curious if anyone can tell me what the next phase of the process is yet for units in that complex. I’ve asked the JLScott folks and they are vague.
