Sequim and Port Angeles Clients
What if you had something valuable and someone wanted what you had but you didn't know each other and you didn't know how to connect?
What if you were a client in the market to buy or sell a home or vacant property, and what if there was a professional close by with 30 years in the real estate business, including 20 years as a real estate attorney and Realtor, but . . . you never met? Wouldn't that be sad?
I have a lifetime of real estate experience to offer you, but how do you and I make a connection? How can you possibly know if I am competent and trustworthy, or whether I can get you the best price or help you find your dream home? That's what my websites are all about. My websites have three primary purposes: - To make a connection with someone like you through the power of the Internet (whereas we might never meet and have the privilege of working together),

Testimonials
"Buying property either commercial or residential can sometimes be a tricky proposition. That’s why I would recommend Chuck to help you with purchasing or selling property. His background as a real-estate lawyer and his no nonsense to the point advice will help you make the right decisions. Experience and Integrity, what you need when you can’t afford to make a mistake." Dail Hurdlow, CEO, Hurdlow Enterprises
"Chuck's experience has been our salvation. Seriously, we are so lucky to have crossed paths with him, because his knowledge and experience in buying land saved us a lot of money, but perhaps more importantly, we avoided what were some fairly significant, at least potentially, glitches in our negotiating." Jack and Melinda "Chuck Marunde’s level of expertise in real estate investment is amazing. His knowledge, experience and legal training have given me a dramatic advantage in real estate investing. He works hard to stay on the cutting edge of real estate marketing, sound advice and value-added service for his clients." Kirk Wald, Financial Planner
"Chuck helped me and my partner purchase a building we were renting for our large business. There were a lot of complicated issues, including legal issues, but because of Chuck's experience as a real estate lawyer, he was able to help us get through an entangled mess. Actually, he came up with a strategy that helped us buy our building, and we got rid of some liens, so we were able to pick up about $90,000 in equity immediately. Where can you find a real estate agent that has that kind of experience?" Bill [last name withheld] "My husband and I had a serious deadline, and Chuck spent time educating us to the process of selling our home for the best price within our time constraints. We really thought we could do it our way, but he showed us how to make it happen in our market and get where we wanted to be. The result was we did sell our house in two weeks, and we were able to move to Hawaii in our critical timeline. Chuck knows real estate, and he was so diplomatic with us while still telling us the truth and what we needed to hear." Mary Ann "When Chuck told me I not only got a Realtor with decades of experience, but I also got his knowledge and experience as a real estate attorney for 20 years totally free, I couldn't believe it. But it was true, and I strongly recommend Chuck to anyone dealing with real estate." Susan
I have known Chuck since he moved to our area and established his law practice from which he is now retired. I have depended on my personal attorney, Chuck Marunde, to assist us in keeping the covenants of the Community current and to artfully arbitrate some contracts, the contents of which were either being ignored or misinterpreted. I am not exaggerating when I aver that Chuck has been responsible—in part, of course—for improving and maintaining my quality of life and that of my neighbours. He accomplishes this by his intelligence, diligence, and experience, all affected, or “leavened” if you will, by his overt honesty, responsibility, and forthrightness. He and I also agree that one of our greatest satisfactions in life is to share the bounty and good fortune we both have been granted with those less endowed or in need. For example, he is the only Real Estate Attorney of which I have any knowledge who maintains a web page of free information for everyone, not only his clients, to consult about often asked questions and frequently encountered problems in regard to buying and selling of homes, land, businesses and the like. Apart from the professionalism of which I spoke, Chuck is also the most moral, the most ethical, the most sincere person I have ever met. Trust me when I say that in the Real Estate history of the Olympic Peninsula, Chuck Marunde is a welcome variance from the norm and I consider myself “blessed” to have met him and to have maintained a friendship during many of the past years. I am so serious in this regard that anyone who wishes to communicate with me personally can do so with the following information: Felipe Aue-Sanchez Captain, 30 years, retired: United Air Lines PO Box 1030 Sequim, WA. 98382-1030 1-360-683-7731 Fax: 1-360-681-6205 felipsan@olypen.com
