Sometimes, it’s fun to just dream, you know?  Put aside practical questions, like “Will I ever be able to afford a $5M waterfront house?” or “Do I really need 10,000 square feet of garage space?”  Sometimes, you just need to check out for a few minutes and wonder what-if.  With that in mind, I’ve put together a list of the 10 most expensive Bellingham homes for sale.

This list auto-generates, sorting properties by price, with the highest first. That means you can come back again and again and see the most current list. If you would like to search for other (perhaps more practical )Bellingham homes for sale, you can click this link, or just give me a buzz. I’ll be happy to put together a list for you and set up a tour of any that you’d like to see!

The post The 5 Least Expensive Fairhaven Condos For Sale appeared first on Katharine Carey Bellingham Real Estate & Photography.

As a Realtor® some days are spent in educational seminars to learn how I can better serve my clients. Today was exceptional.  It was filled with learning about 1031 exchanges from the Archer Group, reverse mortgages by First Reverse Mortgage and a fantastic clock hour session from Natalie Danielson who woke me up after my turkey sandwich when I could have easily faded. I learned that I could not exchange my rental home for one of these beautiful yachts.. Bummer.

In case you’re wondering, a “1031 tax deferred exchange is a transaction that allows you, the exchanger , to preserve the full value of your investment property by acquiring like kind property. You may reinvest sale proceeds that would otherwise be taxable,allowing you to use the entire property value to acquire replacement investment property.” – Archer group

Basically, it allows you to trade up from one investment property to another without having to pay the taxes on the gains. You can defer the taxes by essentially re-investing them in the new property. Let me know if you’re thinking about upgrading to a larger investment property. I can work with an exchange specialist to make that happen for you!

This video, posted recently by a local resident,  so perfectly captures the unparalleled elegance of Bellingham and the surrounding area. Take a couple of minutes to relax and enjoy this wonderful look at Bellingham’s extraordinary beauty.

Check out this Bellingham pumpkin patch! How is this for fun?! Even with a shift in weather toward the slightly gloomier side of the spectrum, there are some moments of incredible beauty to be captured on these crisp Fall days.  My daughter kidnapped me this weekend and we had a great afternoon picking out pumpkins and having lunch at their cafe…   Next time, though, I’ll be sure not to wear my heels!  As you can see, it was a little damp out there. : )

The marina at the Hotel Bellwether has a beauty that is difficult to describe in words. Nestled in along the shores of Bellingham Bay, the marina offers weary travelers a chance to moor their boats and relax at one of the Northwest’s finest hotels. The view is beyond compare, and the comforts of the hotel rank among the best anywhere. Downtown Bellingham is only a half-mile down the road, and Fairhaven can be seen resting between the hills and the waterline to the south. As a Bellingham real estate agent, I have recommended the Bellwether to a number of clients who stayed their on weekend house-hunting expeditions.  It’s always nice  to see the rested, happy faces of excited shoppers after a calm, relaxing night at this fine hotel.

Edgewater Condos at sunset

Often, I find myself previewing homes and condos for clients. Today was no exception and the sunset was amazing…I just had to pause to get a shot.  There are only three of these beautiful Edgewater Condos left… Could this be your new million-dollar view?

Looking out over Bellingham’s Boulevard Park at sunset

As I was driving I received a call from someone acknowledging my website and how they enjoyed my photos being incorporated into real estate. Pulling over for safety of course, we continued talking about what their passions were & I happened to capture a beautiful moment on the boulevard to Fairhaven. Life’s timing is delicious.

Today started out like any other, well sort of.. when you are in the business of real estate it can never be predictable sort of like the weather… and this week has been a crazy one for weather here in Bellingham. Unusual midnight rain showers, thunder and lightning. This is not the norm. Seriously. Growing up here in Bellingham, I can remember one summer in my childhood that is similar. Yes. only one other time, perhaps it is because my memory is fading or that it was just an impressionable time of my youth. Who knows?  to those of you visiting our beautiful area, don’t be worried it is quite unusual and just remember this is the city of subdued excitement.
