Here are some of the nice things my past clients have had to say about working with me.

“You are heads above any of the other realtors we have worked with!” – Shelley T., Bellingham, WA

“As soon as I requested info on real estate in the Bellingham area, you were the first to respond.  Then you asked the right questions to learn what we wanted and sent me not only relevant listings, but also information about the area and other activities that helped convince us NW Washington was where we wanted to live. So when we arrived for our area tour, we were already pretty sure we wanted to live here.

Of course our wish list evolved as we actually toured the area and homes, and certainly your candid assessment of the different areas helped us more quickly focus on the areas that were right for us.   We saw a lot of homes, and you helped us screen well over a hundred before eventually buying one in an area you led us to.  The search was intense for several days, and we appreciated your energy, positive attitude, and daily research to help us reach our goal.

It was a pleasure to work with you!”  - Carl L. Anacortes, WA

“Rob was the only variable of our last home purchase that could be described as smooth. The current market conditions make hitting deadlines nearly impossible and Rob was there to keep all parties calm and working together to reach a common goal. His communication skills, outgoing personality and ability to bond with people of all personality types are sure to place him a step above his peers. Rob is an asset to any real estate transaction and if you are looking for someone enjoyable to work with that you can trust then you will truly enjoy working with him to buy the home of your dreams; I know I did.” - Vanessa C.  Bellingham, WA

“Rob made our home buying experience so easy. Buying a home sight unseen could have turned out very badly. However, he understood our needs and desires and was able to help us find the perfect home for us from across the country.” - Matt and Allison E., Bellingham, WA

Squires lake hike…near Lake Samish neighborhood.

Squires Lake ParkAs the sun came out for the second day in a row yesterday, I was drawn towards a locals favorite hike up to Squires Lake Park on the west side of Lookout Mountain.

The Park’s entrance is just off exit 242 and go east approximately 1 mile on Highway 99 and you’ll find the small parking area on the east.  The initial hike Hiking trail to Squires Laketo the lake is 1/3 of a mile up the well maintained switchback trail through a fern covered forest.

The 84 acre park was purchased in 1995 with Whatcom Land Trust and was opened in 1997.  Like most of Washington state parks, dogs are allowed as long as they are leashed and cleaned up after. 

The 5 acre lake is abundant with wildlife from wood ducks splashing about, to beaver working on trees along the shores.

great place for a breakThe trail follows the waters edge all the way around and has half a dozen park benches strategically placed along the route with placards to describe things of interest.

As you follow the path along you’ll find the Beaver Pond trailhead that leads further up the mountain to a  Beaver paradisesmaller body of water created by the furry rodents.    Did you know that the #1 killer of beaverkind is getting hit by falling trees?  True story. Kyndal stopping for a little fiber.

Here’s my son helping out with the tree cutting.  He’s ever the poser!

This is just one of the many reasons to make Bellingham your home.  If you are thinking of Real Estate…please give me a call and I’ll give you a personal tour of my favorite places.

All the Best,
