Boyd D. bought a home in Bellingham

If you are thinking of moving to the Northwest and are looking at Bellingham, WA, then you have to go straight to the best real estate broker ever, Lori Jo Smith. We found her on Angie's list, and all the comments we read were true. Lori Jo will work tirelessly for you, answer ALL your questions (no matter how nave), and take you out to see more real estate in one day than you thought possible! All we knew about Bellingham when we arrived was that we really liked it. Lori Jo took great care to help us understand the different neighborhoods, advantages and disadvantages of each listing that we visited. Also, she was immensely patient with our changing ideas of what we thought we wantedan important attribute when dealing with baby boomer couples trying to plan for their place to retire! And, perhaps most importantly, we had FUN doing it! When your whole life is about to change, lots of laughter and the beginning bonds of friendship were essential to our experience.

Andy B. bought a home in Bellingham

Lori was extremely helpful and courteous throughout. It was an unusual situation since I currently live out of state. she had to work with my brother who was local and plan around when I was in town. She was my local representative and made sure everything got done and closed on the property on time. She was willing to work with me remotely and gave sound advice for putting a winning bid on a property in a very competitive market.

Jerry B. bought a home in Bellingham

Lori Jo is great. I was new to the state and the Bellingham. Her advice and knowledge of the area was invaluable. She listened to my wants and needs and we were able to find the perfect home for me that meet all my criteria. She was there in every step of the process and answered or followed-up on every question or concern I had. Now I have my dream home thanks to her help.

Peter V. sold a home in Sudden Valley (Bellingham)

Lori Jo Smith was very patient with us as we took our time figuring out what we were looking for in a home, showing us many houses in various neighborhoods. When we found the right one, she moved fast and called in connections to make the move a success, including the sale of our previous home.
