Diversify Investments Before The Crash

Thursday, 29 April 2021 by Chuck Marunde

Diversify investments is one of the fundamental principles of long term investing. If you have a large retirement account invested in the stock market, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, bonds, or tax deferred investments, you probably have made adjustments to your retirement portfolio as you seek to diversify investments and keep up with changes in the

Flip or Flop Vegas with Marunde

Friday, 14 April 2017 by Chuck Marunde

Flip or Flop Vegas is a very popular HDTV show. It’s almost surprising how many people from all walks of life across America are passionate fans of these house flipping shows. Flip or Flop Vegas is the last edition of young couples buying trashed houses, remodeling them, and then flipping them to buyers in the shortest

How to Get Wealthy in a Recession Like This

Wednesday, 09 November 2011 by Chuck Marunde

“How to Get Wealthy in a Recession Like This” sounds like some kind of get-rich-quick scheme or a real estate con like so many out there, but what I write about today is very real and is actually being done right now by my clients, family, friends, and acquaintances.  The stories I share are true

Real Estate Investing in Sequim and Port Angeles

Tuesday, 15 February 2011 by Chuck Marunde

There’s a huge danger right now in real estate investing.  A gentleman from out of town asked me to take a look at his investment today.  He described it as a five acre parcel, and I subsequently learned there was a house on the property that burned down.  Part was still standing, and he told

The Perfect Storm

Monday, 22 September 2008 by Chuck Marunde

The uncertainties in the real estate market are part of a much bigger picture of concern for most Americans.   This has to be one of the most interesting, uncertain, and scary economic times we have lived in for a couple of decades.   Millions of Americans are looking for answers to difficult questions, such

Real Estate or the Stock Market?

Tuesday, 22 July 2008 by Chuck Marunde

Where should your money be parked in tough economic times?   Should you be in real estate or in the stock market?   In the news today Wachovia Corp. reported a record quarterly loss of $8.9 billion, slashed dividends and announced 6,350 job cuts. The stock fell 12 percent in early New York trading in

Real Estate Still a Great Investment

Friday, 04 April 2008 by Chuck Marunde

Almost daily I see articles in newspapers around the country about more scandals, another stock brokerage, financial services provider, or mutual fund paying some extraordinary penalty or huge settlement for fraud, misrepresentation, or some other criminal violations. The Wall Street Journal reported on August 29, 2006 [1] serious problems at Ameriprise, formerly known as American

Financial Trouble in Real Estate?

Tuesday, 26 February 2008 by Chuck Marunde

Some Sequim real estate and Port Angeles real estate owners are looking at serious financial trouble on the horizon. Many property owners refinanced not once but several times in the past five years as the mortgage industry reduced rates and standards. Lower rates created the motivation to not only lower the monthly payment on a

Real Estate v. Stock as an Investment

Monday, 17 December 2007 by Chuck Marunde

If you do a search on the Internet, you will discover that the majority of articles argue that stocks have smashed real estate as a long-term investment. They will quote statistics by various companies which are totally focused on stocks. The bias is blatant. While there clearly are years in which stocks have out performed

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.
