Being raised in the Pacific Northwest (in a unique upbringing on Lopez Island and Steven's Pass), Galen understands exactly what draws people to our special seaside and outdoorsy town. His loyalty, integrity and work ethic have cemented him firmly inside of Bellingham's real estate network.

Having an extensive knowledge of a home has benefited his buyers when walking through a home to determine what might be potential issues in the future, how to fix them and what it might cost. Sellers also benefit from his knowledge when preparing a home to list.
