A year end email that deepens trust, honors 400+ client stories, and connects K2’s real estate work to its larger mission of giving back.

K2 wanted a holiday message that felt sincere and specific, not generic. I took client feedback, and developed the concept, structure, and copy to center gratitude, client stories, and the nonprofits K2 supports.

Thanks, Karishma for the opportunity to work with you!

Dear friends,

As the year winds down, we have been taking a quiet moment to reflect on what this season brings into focus: gratitude, connection, and the people who make our work feel truly meaningful. Time and again, our thoughts land on you.

Over the past 12 years, we have had the privilege of helping more than 400 families buy or sell their homes. What stays with us is not the transactions, but the stories. The new beginnings, the growing families, the nerves, the laughter, and the dreams you trusted us with. Those moments have shaped us, and many began because you referred someone our way or spoke kindly about us when it mattered.

Your introductions and conversations have allowed us to build a business rooted in sincerity and service. It is something we never take for granted. It is also what enables us to give back, an important part of our mission. This year, we were able to contribute to organizations creating meaningful impact in our communities and beyond:

Windermere Foundation   |   Upaya Social Ventures 

FOXG1 Research Foundation   |    Pratham 

Food Lifeline   |   Vision House

Bellevue LifeSpring   |   LifeWire 

The Sophia Way   |   Attain Housing 

First Tee of Seattle   |   Elk's Lodge 

Lake Washington Institute of Technology - Butterfly Effect Scholarship

Each nonprofit reflects a principle we hold close: supporting families, expanding opportunity, strengthening communities, and lending a hand to those who need it most. Contributing to their work is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do, and your support makes it possible.

We wish you and your loved ones a holiday season filled with warmth, rest, laughter, and peace. May the days ahead bring connection, comfort, and moments that stay with you long after the year turns.
