I’m thankful for many things, and I count my blessings almost daily. I am so thankful to have raised my children in Sequim, to have had my law practice downtown Sequim, to have my real estate brokerage in a place where so many incredible people come to buy homes and live the remainder of their

Will You Die Today?

Tuesday, 06 August 2019 by Chuck Marunde

Will you die today? You’ll discover shortly why I’m asking you this question. 64,000 people will die today around the world, and 35 million people will die this year. What makes you so sure you will not be one of the 35 million this year? You and I have no idea how much time we

The Key to Happiness

Wednesday, 22 August 2018 by Chuck Marunde

I’ve reflected on how it is that happiness is so prevalent in Sequim among so many retirees. I’ve written about how Sequim is the happiest place I’ve ever lived, and my own research in communicating with hundreds of Sequim residents who have retired in Sequim from all over the United States has proven that many

City of Poulsbo

Thursday, 07 June 2018 by Chuck Marunde

The City of Poulsbo is an amazing little town, although compared to Sequim, it is not so little. Poulsbo is about an hour’s drive from Sequim. It was a Sunday afternoon, and the sun was out, and it was a gorgeous day. So I took a drive to Silverdale, ate lunch at the Olive Garden,

Hollywood Escape From Fame and Fortune to Paradise (aka Sequim)

Sunday, 02 April 2017 by Chuck Marunde

Fame and fortune are not all they’re cracked up to be, and let’s face it, in our culture fame and fortune are constantly promoted as the keys to happiness and a wonderful life. I’ve spent time with several Hollywood success stories who lived that lifestyle for decades and now live in Sequim, Washington. What they told me, not only about

Sequim Electric Rates

Sunday, 22 January 2017 by Chuck Marunde

Sequim electric rates are a fraction of what they are in southern California. My monthly electric bill averages $125 per month. I have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home in Sequim with 1,850 square feet all one one level, and my Sequim electric rates are quite reasonable. June, July, August, and September were all $67

It’s another day in Sequim, and I am loving it. This morning I awoke early and enjoyed a cup of coffee and some fresh air on my Sequim property as I walked around my two and a half acres with my dog, Titus. It was a chilly but invigorating morning, and as I always do,

Where Do I Want to Retire?

Wednesday, 01 April 2015 by Chuck Marunde

Where do I want to retire is a question that must be asked and answered definitively before you start shopping for houses. That doesn’t mean you can’t take a look at what is available in an area, but you can actually do that online from anywhere you have an Internet connection. Of course, you can

Starbucks in Sequim

Wednesday, 12 November 2014 by Chuck Marunde

I love Starbucks in Sequim, but then I love any Starbucks. What is better than a Starbucks double short latte extra hot? Not a soda. Not shopping at Home Depot. Not the evening news, and not even ____. [You fill in the blank.] Well, the point is Starbucks in Sequim is a great place to enjoy

How Can I Be Happy?

Saturday, 11 October 2014 by Chuck Marunde

Isn’t the question, “How can I be happy?” arguably the ultimate question in life? When we were young, most of us had all kinds of ideas about how we are going to be happy our whole lives. Do you remember thinking that your parents had no clue, but you would live differently? Then reality hits when we have

The Older I Get The Better I Become

Thursday, 19 September 2013 by Chuck Marunde

“The older I get . . .”  How would you finish that sentence? Maybe you’ve heard the humorous answer, “The older I get, the better I was.” I laugh when I hear that, but I was thinking about that statement today during my jog through Robin Hill Park in Sequim (I’m 59), and I found

Why is Sequim so great?   There are a lot of reasons, but here’s something I experienced this weekend.   I took my daughter and my grandson for their first snowboarding lessons at Snoqualmie, which is a little more than a two hour drive from Sequim.   For a great recreational activity like skiing and

From Los Angeles

It's rare, but once in awhile life provides the perfect collaborator for an important endeavor such as buying your new home. For me that person was Chuck Marunde. His two decade background as a Real Estate Attorney, his prolific career as an author of articles and books on Real Estate and his forthright and moral character made choosing Chuck a no-brainer. Chuck is dedicated, thorough, incredible at the negotiating table, knowledgeable about all local laws & regs but, most importantly, Chuck loves what he does. And what he does is find his client the perfect property. Chuck isn't about making the sale, he's about making the sale that is OPTIMUM for his CLIENT and this makes Chuck a rare bird indeed. I love my new home in Sequim and I am indebted to Chuck for making it happen. Kevin E.

From Seattle

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Chuck over the past three years in selling my parent's estate. It was a tough time to sell during the housing recession, but Chuck always kept things on the positive side. With his real estate law background, he offers sound, practical advice. He helps you along with the process using discussions and reason, rather than opinions and speculations. If Chuck doesn’t know the answers, he will get them for you. In several instances, Chuck took the initiative to meet with county officials to get up-to-date facts about zoning and regulations. I was always impressed with his company’s tech savvy communi-cations and internet presence: weekly email updates, blogs, videos, links, Linked-in networking, etc. He is truly pioneering the future of buying & selling real estate. Brian M.

From California

"Andy Romano is a successful motion picture character actor with over 40 years in 'the Biz.' Mr. Romano has a home in beautiful Santa Barbara, California, but he chooses to live most of the time in Sequim, Washington on the Olympic Peninsula in the great Pacific Northwest. Why? In his own words, 'Because it's even more beautiful and surrounded by more beauty in this incredibly peaceful and quiet place. With respect to real estate agents or brokers, well my friend Chuck Marunde, owner of Sequim and Port Angeles Real Estate, is hands down the best there" Andy R.
