Thursday, 08 February 2018 by Chuck Marunde

If the stock market collapse is imminent, or at least on the near horizon, now is the time to take money off that table and put it into your retirement home sooner rather than later. Why would I suggest this? I’ll tell you exactly why. Stock Market Collapse v. Real Estate If you listen to

Stock Market Volatility Dangerous

Wednesday, 20 January 2016 by Chuck Marunde

This stock market volatility is scaring a lot of people, including fund managers. When the Dow is up and down over 400 points on consecutive days, it’s not a good sign for the weeks ahead. The Dow is down already 1,900 points in the first two weeks of 2016. Not a great start for the year.

Real Estate or the Stock Market?

Monday, 15 December 2008 by Chuck Marunde

Would you invest in real estate or the stock market now?  If you had a million dollars to invest, where would you put it right now (under your mattress is not an acceptable answer)?   Is the stock market safe?   As between real estate or the stock market, you know I’m going to say

Cash is King, Stock is Not, Real Estate is a Buy

Wednesday, 22 October 2008 by Chuck Marunde

In every crisis there is opportunity, and for those hurting, maybe now is the time to consider that opportunity may help offset losses.   Cash is king in a crisis.   It always is.   There are tremendous opportunities in the stock market, but of course, none of us can be sure which stock that

Words of Encouragement for the Real Estate Market and Economy

Saturday, 18 October 2008 by Chuck Marunde

None of us bought tickets for the roller coaster ride we are all riding.   We’ve been going up and down and wondering if we are at the bottom yet.   I have words of encouragement for you. We are near the bottom, but not quite there yet.   Before it gets better, it must

Why is There So Much Confusion in the Markets?

Friday, 10 October 2008 by Chuck Marunde

The experts are confused.   Bank presidents, University economics professors, CEO’s running multi-billion dollar International companies, large fund managers, execs of the federal reserve banks, and even our politicians are totally stumped by the chaos in the markets.   Exactly what is happening and why?   A brief chronological review of the fundamental facts actually

The Stock Market Crashes – What Does It Mean?

Tuesday, 30 September 2008 by Chuck Marunde

This year has been a tough year in real estate for sellers, but the problem goes far beyond the real estate industry.   Yesterday congress failed to pass a $700 billion dollar bail out package for financial institutions, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 777 points, the largest single day crash in history.

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.

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.
