An article describing how "city of Tacoma uses new code to protect historic Washington building" quotes Realogics Sotheby's International Realty broker Liz Davidson. It reads, "last year, a buyer from Vietnam expressed interest in the building . . . But Webb wanted $9.6 million, too much for her customer, said Liz Davidson, a real estate agent with Realogics Sotheby's International Realty in Seattle. The county assessor places the value at $6.2 million. Webb bought the Washington Building in 2005 for $9.6 million. 'The owners were not realistic with the pricing,' Davidson said."
