Who is Barbara Blowers and what is WAVES Waterfront Properties, Inc.?

In 1987, Barbara was working in a large real estate firm when she realized that folks with waterfront were not being well served. Permits are different, getting septic installations are different, there were issues with bulkheads and water and on and on and on. She decided then to start a real estate company that served all of western Washington listing and selling waterfront.

As a listing agent, Barbara takes care of the difficulties in selling, in particular, waterfront land. In selling waterfront homes, often some of the same issues arise, such as old septic systems, issues of wetland areas, problems with bulkheads or geotechnical issues. Since 1987, she has worked with a variety of specialists to help her clients get through the perils of selling waterfront. Because of her special knowledge, she has saved property owners hours and weeks of grief while trying close transactions on waterfront.

As a selling agent, she works with folks who are looking for that something special. People often look on Whidbey Island, down on the Key Peninsula, on the Olympic Peninsula – always looking for that perfect place. Because she has not been tied to one community, she matches the perfect property to each customer.

In the Port Townsend area, you will find Barbara listing a variety of properties; elsewhere, she sticks mostly to waterfront. Along the Pacific Ocean in places like Ocean Park, Long Beach, Grayland, Westport, Pacific City and others, she particularly enjoys finding places looking out over the big waves off the ocean. “I feel especially at home at the Ocean since my mother grew up in Westport. In fact, my grandparent’s home is now a bed and breakfast called Glen Acres in Westport and I often stay there when I head down to dig razor clams.” Another favorite of mine is Whidbey Island. My favorite restaurant is in Langley and is called Café Langley; it is Mediterranean food and is always fantastic! On Whidbey Island you can find many no bank summer homes that are perfect for families needing a break from city life. My sister’s is in Clinton, and she and her grandchildren have spent countless happy hours just hanging out on the beach.

Whether you need to sell your waterfront or you wish to buy waterfront, giving Barbara Blowers a jingle is a great option. She knows all the areas, all the beaches, whether there are clams and oysters there and whether you can put crab pots out in season. As a native of Port Townsend, she knows the Pacific Northwest very well.

Summer is winding down which makes September a great time to buy a waterfront home.  Whether you want a cabin on Whidbey Island or a beautifully designed waterfront home overlooking Admiralty Inlet, there are plenty of properties to choose from.  In the past few months, I have seen about a dozen really great homes on medium and high bank waterfront with view that are outstanding.  Finding a property with great views AND a great floor plan is not always easy -- but I have seen many this year just waiting for you.  Call me.  1-800-346-9236

Every so often, I see a waterfront hoe that is special.  This one Whatcom County is one of them.  The owner remodeled, adding beautiful touches and careful materials.  It should be on market in a week or so and comes with low bank, sandy beach, a one bedroom guest house, 2-car garage and that peaceful quiet that only rural Washington waterfront can bring.  Call now -- see it soon -- priced at $470,000,. which is a darn good price.

Waterfront Cottages

If ever there was a time to buy a waterfront cottage, now.  From the Bellingham area to Port Townsend to 'down the Canal' there are places for sale starting at around $225,000; some of the cottages in the $400,000 range are totally adorable -- no and low bank with sandy beaches and safe places for kids and grandkids to cavort.  If this is what you are seeking, give me a ring at 1-800-346-9236 and I will find one just for you!

Washington State Business Opportunity

The marine industries in Washington State are doing very well as are industries that rely on easy access to water for transportation of goods to other parts of the world.  I have been working on several commercial and industrial sites and am finding many more opportunities for new businesses than I thought would be available.  If you and your company are looking to locate and/or relocate to Washington State, we have much to offer:  large and small sites, available workforce, wonderful places for families to live and plenty of businesses to support yours. If you have specific needs, please email me and let me know what they are.  I will get back to you very quickly about possible sites. My Website: Waveswaterfront.com, Email me:  waves@olympus.net

I live in a summer beach community

I live in a summer beach community which is now wonderfully quiet since Labor Day is over.  With kids back in school, it is now a great time to come on out and look at waterfront.  Whether you are looking for a home on the Pacific Ocean, a getaway cabin near Port Townsend, a boater’s paradise on Whidbey Island with your own dock, or just a lot to park your RV on, it’s time to get out a look.  I am headed this weekend to the Hot Rod Run to the End of the World in Long Beach, Washington.  While there I will look at all the waterfront homes available in that area.  Next week we can talk about living on the Pacific Ocean!  Best thing about that area – fabulous restaurants!
