- Ben Kinney, Team Owner

Selling a home in Whatcom County
For Sellers we are the number one choice in Western Washington if you want your home aggressively marketed.
The Bellingham real estate market has rarely seen a more exciting time - nor a more competitive one - than right now. A combination of factors - increased demand for retirement properties, families and young professionals moving away from the big cities - have contributed to the rediscovery of a number of America's mid-sized cities. Bellingham is no exception, and although the market here is healthy, new properties and developments continue to appear, making the market a competitive one for sellers.
In such a climate, a good Realtor is a great resource. Ben Kinney's Home4Investment Team is far more than a good Realtor - in fact, it's more than a team of good Realtors. The Home4Investment Team is a group of individuals each specializing in one specific field of real estate. With Buyer's Agents, Listing Agents, Lead Coordinators, Commercial & Investment Specialists, a marketing team and a full time web staff all focusing their unique talents on the sale of your property, you will have the edge on the competition.
Buying a home in Whatcom County
Information for Buyers
Bellingham is one of the Pacific Northwest's premier real estate markets, and searching for a home here is exciting no matter what your price range. To help get you started, we've developed a free home search with a variety of ways to narrow down the choices and find the properties which suit your needs best.
However, browsing the listings is just the first step. Before you start to make offers, you need to know the investment potential of each property of interest. Getting this information can be difficult without the right experience in your real estate market, and many homes for sale are never listed publicly. Ben Kinney's Home4Investment Team has that experience: our Buyer's Agents and Investment Specialists are trained in, and focus specifically on just these projects - keep reading to find out more!
Working With a Bellingham Realtor
New homes for sale are added to the market daily in Bellingham and all over the Whatcom and Skagit County area. As your Buyer's Agency, we'll make sure you see all the newest listings, whether or not they're widely available. In daily conversations with sellers and agents throughout the area we find the best property deals, and pass them on directly to you. Many of our clients can put in offers with little or no competition and walk away with an impressive deal on the property of their choice. Your agent will also work hard to ensure you only see properties that meet your needs and investment preferences, so you don't spend time on listings that aren't of interest. As you narrow down the choices, we'll provide you with important information about the home, its neighborhood, zoning issues, utilities, and nearby plans for development.
Often the real work begins during the negotiation process, and as your professional realty team we'll represent you in talks with the seller. To ensure you get the best deal possible, we'll attend property inspections, oversee all agreed-upon repair work, and handle all paperwork related to the sale. Our seamless service package also includes help with financing, with us working directly with a broker to help set up your investment.
Ben Kinney and the Home4Investment Team can help you save time, and add professional assurance to every step of your home purchase. Our agents will take the time to show you around properties seven days, and evenings, a week. And, it does not cost buyers anything to work with one of our agents, as the fee is absorbed by the seller. The decision to work with Ben Kinney and the Home4Investment Team makes it more likely you'll find a solid investment, and be more wealthy when it's time to sell.

Whatcom County Real Estate
Although the name sounds more like part of the English countryside, the word 'Whatcom' actually has its roots in a Nooksack word, which roughly translates as "noisy water". Fear not, however, as the "noise" in question is the sound of the rushing Nooksack River as it meanders lazily throughout Whatcom County. A good portion of Whatcom County real estate is devoted to dairy and berry farming, in fact, almost 75% of America's raspberries are grown here.
Whatcom County's abundance of lush farmland and forests, bordered by the Cascade Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, features the best of many worlds. Whatcom County real estate offers a rare diversity: oceanfront properties in Birch Bay, a hobby farm in Lynden, a log home on the lake in Bellingham, a family home in Ferndale close to a summer cabin on one of the gorgeous San Juan Islands. To believe it, you must see what Whatcom County real estate has to offer.
Skagit County Real Estate
Named for the Skagit First Nation and located in the northwest corner of Washington State, Skagit County's towns and cities sprang up along the banks of the Skagit River. With a combination of mid-sized cities like Mount Vernon and Anacortes balanced by smaller, even rural towns like Burlington and Sedro Woolley, Skagit County's real estate market boasts diversity, from cozy, affordable properties for first-time home buyers; to modern, well situated homes for families and retired couples, to spectacular waterfront properties in the $1 - 2 million range. A variety of architectural styles, picturesque locations, and friendly communities awaits you in Skagit County.
Investing in Real Estate
Almost like beanie babies and ebay investing in real estate has been a huge fad that few years. Experienced and novice investors have taken large risk. Many of which are in financial trouble right not. Builders, Developers, and Investors all have properties in whatcom and Skagit Counties going into foreclosure.
In a buyers market you need more research done before investing. My recommendations are to only work with experts who actually invest themselves. Find properties with dual exit strategies. Profit margins greater than 40% are needed now and we are just the right team to find them for you.
Some examples of investments we have worked on this year for clients:
Out of area properties with large cap rates both in the state of Washington and in more lucrative areas across the US.
Large commercial projects - including businesses for sale, leaseable buildings, commercial land
Long and Short Plat opportunities for small and large subdivisions.
Condominium Conversions of multifamily properties starting at duplex's and buildings over 150 units
Rental properties that cash flow of break even.
Foreclosure and short sale properties with large profit margins
