Every week we track the number of homes on the market that have offers on them and those that do not and create a ratio we call Pending Ratios.
As of Saturday August 28th , the pending ratio in Bellingham was 16% . Pending is the time frame between when an offer has been mutual accepted between the buyer’s and the seller’s of the home and when the title actually transfers hands. This give the buyer’s time to get the financing, do inspection, review the title reports and more.

It’s hard to imagine that summer is almost over and the school year is about to begin for Whatcom County School Districts but ,yes it is that time of the year again.
Even though school might not be starting for a couple of weeks for most it’s still a great time to start getting ready. A good night’s sleep is more important that ever for your young scholars. It’s a good idea to start getting used to the school sleep schedule now so they are fully rested and awake when they start their first day of class. Some suggestions for getting a good night’s sleep are to set a scheduled bed time , set clothes out the night before and set the backed pack back by the door. By making the most of your evenings before bed time and organizing your things for your morning getting ready will take less time and allow for more sleep.
It you opt to start changing your sleeping plan early take full advantage of the getting up early and plan some fun end of summer day trips with your family before school starts. Take a trip to the birch bay water slides, walk the beaches of Semiahmoo Spit or go swimming at Lake Whatcom, as school is just around the corner!

With all this hot weather we have been having it’s important not to forget about your lawn. This time of year with the heat it is helpful to mow at the second to the highest setting (2 1/2 to 3 inches long). To insure that you don’t remove too much green, mow off only 1/3 of the blade at a time, since most of the green in your lawn is located in the top portion of the blade. If you mow at these settings you will be helping your lawn by:
- conserving water
- strengthening the root system
- helping to crowd out potential weeds
Happy Mowing!
