It was another busy March, and we look forward to an even busier spring! Now that we are in the midst of a seller's spring, that should not be too difficult! We are proud to have been able to get two of our clients situated in the Stanwood-Camano area, helping them find fantastic homes in both places with stunning waterfront views. If you are ready to start your home search, or sell your home, feel free to get in touch with us today!

Spring is such an incredible time in the North Sound and there is so much going on! Taking time to get away and visit the yearly Skagit Tulip Festival is a great day trip for anyone in the Puget Sound region. On Camano, we are especially looking forward to the return of the Camano Studio Tour after a two-year pandemic hiatus!

There are many factors that contribute to keeping a healthy lawn in the Pacific Northwest. Knowing when to reseed your lawn, however, may be the most important. Cool-season grasses, common in the Pacific Northwest, prefer air temperatures in the low 60s to low 80s. That means right now is the perfect time to get your lawn in order for all of the summer activities we cherish in the Northwest. Learn more about how to perfect your lawn care this spring below!
