Merle Reeder Retires from Northwest Roof Service

KENT, Wash. - May 12, 2021 - PRLog -- Merle Reeder, a roofing estimator for Northwest Roof Service, is retiring from the company after 9 years. Prior to working for Northwest Roof Service, Merle was superintendent for a local builder, owned a window and insulation business in Tacoma, and was a general contractor, remodeling homes throughout Puget Sound.

As top salesman for Northwest Roof Service, Merle is good with people and his knowledge of construction has served his customers well. Allen Merrill, CEO of Northwest Roof Service, commented on Merle.

"I have always respected Merle for who he is, his work ethic, and what he has done for the company," Merrill said.

Merle will use his deep knowledge of the construction and housing industries to join wife Marti Reeder and her real estate team, Team Marti of John L. Scott, as operations manager and broker-partner. In that role, Merle's focus will be on supporting Marti in all-things real estate. With his 45 years in the construction industry, Merle's background will be an asset to the team, particularly with understanding home conditions, repairs and home values.

Merle has been a licensed real estate broker since 2010 and has been helping Marti in his off hours for the last 11 years. The couple is excited to have the opportunity to work together full-time.

"Merle has been my secret weapon for the 16 years I've been a licensed real estate broker. His knowledge of homes and construction has been useful to my clients, and he's a great asset when it comes to pricing buildings, properties and homes. His background of owning his own business for many years
has been invaluable to me. We make a great team!" Marti said.

"I guess I'm retiring from the construction industry, but not really retiring. I'm looking forward to my new full-time career in real estate," said Merle. "Marti is an excellent negotiator. It's been fun to watch her grow in her career over the years. Now it's my turn to take what I've learned and put it into action."
