vancouver real estate: YOUR TREES MIGHT NOT REALLY BE DEAD
- 08/04/10 08:26 AM
If you or your clients are sprucing up the yard for a future sale and you find that a tree or two that were healthy last year look like they are dead now, hold on a second. We have a momosa tree that didn't leaf out this spring and looked dead and were even told by an amature landscaper that it was dead. However, it is doing great now and we are glad we didn't follow his direction and chop it down. A friend whom is a realtor and owns a nursury says that whenever there is a drastic change in the (3 comments)

vancouver real estate: History of Ridgefield, WA
- 07/28/10 11:51 AM
We have a lot of smaller towns around Vancouver, WA and potential buyers sometimes ask about the history of certain areas. So today we will talk about Ridgefield, WA. Ridgefield is just 10 minutes north of Vancouver. The original inhabitants were the Chinook tribe, who had a large fish named after them. Lewis and Clark visited them on their way to the Pacific Coast and enjoyed them so much that they stopped for a visit on their way back. James Carty, who was an Irish immigrant, filed the first Land Donation Claim in 1840. He was the only settler until 1853. (0 comments)

vancouver real estate: Townhome vs Condo
- 07/22/10 09:29 AM
A lot of buyers are confused as to the difference between a Townhome and a Condo. The major difference is that in a condo, you own from the paint in. With a townhome, you actually own the entire unit, including the ground underneath. So how do you own a unit that is connected to another unit? Well, with a condo you have a common wall between you and the person next door. But with a townhome there are actually ( at least in the ones we built) 2 walls, yours and theirs. Here is how they are constructed. As you stand (1 comments)

- 07/22/10 06:40 AM
We get a lot of people who are curious about which came first - Vancouver, Washington or Vancouver, British Columbia. Well, here's a short history of Vancouver, WA: In 1792 a British Lt. named William Broughton was sailing up the Columbia River and named a point of land Point Vancouver after his commanding officer, Capt. George Vancouver. We don't know if Broughton was just especially fond of George, or just wanted to score some points with his Captain. In 1806 Lewis and Clark camped nearby on their way back to civilization and Lewis later stated that it was " the only desireable (0 comments)
vancouver real estate: Century 21 to Coldwell Banker
- 07/21/10 08:00 AM
Hello Everyone, Just wanted to write a quick blog to all my clients and friends who are asking about the change we are going through. We were formerly Century 21 Cascade Pacific and had been for a very long time. We were just purchased by Coldwell Banker. Since each Century 21 office is independantly owned, they purchased our two offices ( Vancouver and Camas) only, not all of the Century 21 offices. Change can be great, especially if you keep an open mind and maintain a positive outlook. Coldwell Banker has a lot of resources and they are very successful in (0 comments)
