Many retirees are looking at Sequim real estate, which makes sense since Sequim, Washington owns the famous Sequim Blue Hole or the Sequim Rain Shadow where the rainfall is one-third that of Seattle. For retirees planning to come and look at Sequim real estate, they may also be thinking about how they will travel to visit children and grandchildren. Is Sequim close enough to an aiport and how difficult are travel arrangements from Sequim to many other areas of the country? A trip from Sequim to Vegas starts with a two hour drive to SeaTac. Parking is easy, and I recommend a secured parking lot I have been using for years, MVP Airport Parking. They will park your car and drive you to the airport which is only a few minutes away, and they charge $10.95 per day. SeaTac is a beautiful airpo... 01/14/2014

THINGS TO DO - OLYMPIC PENINSULA'S SHI SHI BEACH The rock formations called the Point of Archers near Shi Shi Beach (pronounced shy shy) on the Olympia Peninsula is one of the most pristine beaches in the state.  To get there requires some work. First, drive through the windy tree-lined road about 8.5 miles south of Neah Bay, Wash., about 4.5 hours northwest of Seattle near the farthest northwest point in the lower 48 states on the Olympic Peninsula. After a 2-mile hike along a wilderness trail with a descent down a 150-foot bluff, the reward is one of the most pristine spots on the coastline of Olympic National Park: Shi Shi Beach. Curved conifers stand behind the beach as a testament to wind power. Deer wander down the bluffs to nip at leaves. Eagles perch atop bare pine trees. Driftw... 08/05/2013

Engineered, what does it really mean? Wenatchee Home Inspection Services In the abstract engineering is an exercise in how close to the cliff’s edge we can go with some acceptable risk and safety factor for as little expense as possible. Too close to the cliff then failure happens at an unacceptable point of risk and cost saving are lost.                                           The majority of what we use and live in our modern society has been engineered or use prescriptive principles based on some set of assumptions and tolerances from an engineered aspect. Okay if you live in a mud hut you are exempt from this example. But you are most likely not reading this anyway. Structural engineering deals with the design and analysis of structures used to support loads in the most economical... 04/18/2012

How does the assessed tax value and the sales price of homes compare compare?  This is a question I get from clients moving to my local market, and because it’s different around the country, clients ask me if the county assessed tax value of the home they might buy is the same as fair market value or the price at which homes actually sell.  In other words, would an independent bank appraisal be the same as the County tax assessment?  If you are going to make an offer on a home (or write an offer for a client), wouldn’t you like to know if the assessed tax value is a good indicator of the true FMV?  Clients are willing to pay a reasonable price, but they don’t want to over pay for a home in this market.

What a fabulous day today (6/21/11) to see the eighth wonder of the world - Hurricane Ridge.  And, it's free. Today, the National Parks Service has issued a "free pass day".  For nature lovers, hikers and anyone who appreciates the most incredible vistas, that's a good excuse to go to the Northwest's premiere attraction - Olympic National Park. If you have never been to Hurricane Ridge, it is a short drive from Port Angeles, Washington, south to a ridge overlooking the Olympic Mountain Range.  The views are every bit as good as anywhere in the Alps. Take a look - here is a webcam. OK - saving the $15 visitor fee is no big deal but this I guarantee is worth the trip at any price - a good day trip for the first day of summer. 06/21/2011

La Push Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches on the Olympic Peninsula. For those fans of the movie Twilight, you'll recognize La Push Beach as one of the scenes in the teenage vampire love story. La Push is about a hour and a half drive from Sequim, but what a great way to spend a weekend afternoon on a sunny day. I took my 14 year old daughter and two of her friends and we picnicked on the beach and explored all afternoon. I highly recommend this trip. 06/02/2011

In Sequim, in Washington state's Dungeness Valley, the main crop is my favorite plant, lavender.  I took this photo at the Purple Haze Lavender Farm just outside of the utterly charming town of Sequim.  There are twelve acres of lavender, (organic, of course), and the place smells just heavenly!  The gift shop sells all things lavender, including soaps, oils, and even salad dressing! And if you are planning a vacation, they also have rentals available that look like they'd be great fun!  Oh, and they also have those monster crabs that taste amazing! 08/01/2010

I personally experienced something not too long ago that reminded me just how precious life is and also how short it can be-I fell from a roof and broke my back on April 8th. Immediately after I fell, as I was trying to sit still so I wouldn't do anymore damage, I literally saw my life flash before my eyes. I thought of the past (growing up with my two brothers, my parents 25th wedding anniversary, meeting my wife, our wedding), the present (I might be paralyzed) and of the future (possibly not being able to pick up my children, work or do any of the things I really enjoy). If you haven't had such an experience, you should consider yourself very fortunate.  Luckily I wasn't paralyzed and will make a full recovery in the coming months, but the experience was life changing. Not a day goes... 07/01/2010

Port Angeles Real Estate: Real estate investing is really an art and, like any art, it takes time to master the art of real estate investing. The key, of course, is to buy at a lower price and sell at higher price and make a profit even after paying all the costs involved in the two (buy/sell) transactions. Generally, people are of the opinion that Port Angeles real estate investing makes sense only when the rates are on the rise. However, real estate investing for profits is possible just about any time (and as I just said, real estate investing is an art). Here is a list of tricks that can make real estate investing profitable for you: 1) Look for public auctions, divorce settlements and Port Angeles foreclosures (bank/FHA/VA): Since quick settlement is the preference here (and not pr... 06/13/2010

Randy West with The Daily Courier, in his article Billing through escrow is a conflict of interest for home inspectors, does a wonderful job of explaining the reasoning behind why most home inspectors do not or cannot allow payment at the closing of escrow. Randy points out that from the position of the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI), billing escrow is a conflict of interest and would represent a violation of the ASHI Code of Ethics. He goes on to say "it is imperative that home inspectors are totally objective about the homes they inspect. A home inspector should not care whether his client buys the home or not; he should simply report the good, bad and ugly to allow the client to make an informed decision. What is less obvious is that billing escrow does give the home insp... 06/08/2010

Port Angeles Real Estate: Considering the purchase of Foreclosure property? Here are some steps to follow to help you achieve your goal. The Port Angeles real estate market is being bombarded weekly with new Foreclosures ... as well .... in every area in the USA.  How can you find them? Simple, call a few Port Angeles real estate agents and ask them to send you daily listings that meet your criteria, don't be vague, be as detailed as possible and within a realistic price range.  In other words if you qualify for a  $100,000 loan don't focus on $ 1,000,000 homes, odds are you will never get an offer accepted and if you did we are talking about hundreds of offers. That takes time and energy and you will probably end up losing your Port Angeles real estate agent. Once you start receiving t... 05/31/2010
