About Duckin

Founders Rick & Joyce Miner set the absolute standard to always offer the best service for selling or buying a home in Seattle and are unique in having a very successful brand/mascot – a loveable rubber duck. You may already be familiar with their unique style and professional reputation, but it is worth noting again just how much of a mark this duck has made! Rick and Joyce Miner and the rubber duck are possibly the most well known waterfront, water view, floating homes and ALL-Around residential real estate team in the Pacific Northwest. Their PASSION & LOVE of the waterfront lifestyle in and around Seattle was always only second to their devotion to each other.

Sadly, Rick has passed on now, but Joyce made sure he spent his last days comfortably afloat in the community in which he loved so much.  Joyce carries on his legacy and still lives in their floating eastlake “nest” where so much of Rick’s touches are evident.  She is active in the community and working in real estate with Courtney Cooper Neese who shares the passion and love of waterfront living and life afloat.

As a full time licensed real estate broker for over 25 years, Courtney is an absolute expert on the  waterfront, floating, and mountain homes, houseboats, marinas, and moorage slips. She is the founder of Seattle Afloat and highly networked into the Seattle floating home and waterfront neighborhoods as well as an expert on marinas and moorage around the lake.  She usually knows who wants to sell even when they are not on the market and can open up additional opportunities for buyers and sellers that other brokers can not. Working on the water is a dream come true and having heroes like Rick & Joyce Miner to look up to was a real game changer.  She is creative and diligent in her marketing and negotiating efforts as well as a fierce advocate for her clients.

Can't tell you how much we appreciate your friendship not to mention your excellent professional counseling that made our Roanoke Reef purchase possible...like you (as I'm sure you know by now) we need and want to live on or very near the water...and knowing that someday we will have to give up the 'big boating' thing, it is very exciting for us to be able to transition to a place that is still on the water and that a dream that we both have had has really come to be...and now that we actually have our very own "Pied de Mer" we are just getting more and more thrilled about it...and we thank you so much for helping to make it all happen. 'You really do make dreams come true.'

Peg and Ed S.
