The slowing real estate market, accompanied with the unseasonal weather creates an interesting environment to sell and buy in the Anacortes, La Conner, Guemes Island and San Juan Islands area.

The uniqueness of Fidalgo Island living, with its small town feel, gorgeous landscapes and all the conveniences of a larger city has brought Anacortes and La Conner to the attention of the foreign investor.

This new attention to Skagit County and Island County real estate has made Island Living even more desirable than in the past.  The international real estate buyer is inquiring about Anacortes properties and Island waterfront properties from around the globe.  I recently spoke with a potential buyer from Russia, via interpreter.  Canadians are clamoring to buy their second home close to the border and our prices compared to theirs, accompanied by the equal exchange rate... create an extremely attractive real estate investment to Canadians.

To capture the Whidbey Island, San Juan Islands, La Conner, and Anacortes luxury real estate buyer I have expanded our marketing to include many of my listings on the www.Luxuryportfolio.com website.  This website targets the international buyer and is available in 9 languages, 22 currencies and is reviewed by prospective buyers in 150 countries!  For more information on Luxury Waterfront Properties please visit my website JeanGrosebeck.com  or email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
