2020 Award Of Excellence Winner As a John L. Scott broker, my mission is transactional excellence and client satisfaction. That means I work tirelessly to make your home buying or selling process as efficient, stress-free and lucrative for you as possible. After 15 years as a VP of sales and marketing for a large company in the transportation industry, I decided it was time for a change and real estate as a career just seemed to fit my lifestyle well. I chose to work as a Broker with John L. Scott because of my experience with my first home purchase. My wife and I were so impressed, and so well represented with our John L. Scott Broker, I knew this was the company I wanted to work with. I specialize in clients who are relocating to the Skagit County area. Over the years I've gotten to know this area very well. So whether you're thinking of living by the water in Anacortes, La Conner or the San Juan Islands, on acreage in Burlington or a rambler in Mount Vernon I will find you that perfect home. Skagit county has many beautiful areas to fit your lifestyle and I will be happy to show you them all. If you're thinking of selling...I also understand current pricing trends, am an experienced negotiator, and know how to market your home to sell for the best price possible in the least amount of time. I look forward to talking with you soon.

www.michellefogginrealestate.com Having the right real estate agent means having an agent who is committed to helping you buy or sell your home with the highest level of expertise in your local market. This means also to help you in understanding each step of the buying or selling process. This commitment level has helped me build a remarkable track record of delivering results. "We were so excited to take advantage of the current sellers market and are so glad we used Nicole. Nicole was instrumental in our smooth transaction. She answered all of our questions and was knowledgeable of this unique market. We are so thankful for the beautiful pictures and video we have of our home we sold."

Why choose me as your Relocation Specialist? Over the past 25 years, I have moved ten times, which makes me somewhat of an expert on the subject. My husband and I moved to Anacortes twelve years ago from Jacksonville, Florida and we fell in love with the town. We are both from Montana originally and wanted to get back in the Northwest. My husband retired from the Navy and we decided to build a house and plant our roots here. Since we have three school age children, the excellent reputation of the Anacortes School District is one of the main reasons that brought us to Anacortes. Our family has thoroughly enjoyed exploring Fidalgo Island and all it has to offer. We love hiking and mountain biking in the endless Anacortes Forest Land trail system, camping at Washington Park, and playing on the beach at Bowman Bay. There are many other things to do in Anacortes…. kayaking, boating, fishing, golfing, and sightseeing.

Once you have decided the area where you want to live, the process of buying a home begins. As an experienced exclusive buyer’s agent specializing in Skagit, Whatcom, and Island counties, I have been selling properties since 2004. My philosophy for working with buyers is simple: Buyers want an easy, no hassle way of finding the home they want, in an area in which they won’t regret buying, for a price they won’t regret paying. They want a Realtor whom they will be comfortable referring to their family and friends, and whom they will call for all their future real estate needs. These are all things I provide. My customers become my friends. I am a professional listener. I do not convince you of what you do not want. I am fair, ethical, and very detail-oriented. My goal is to find you the best home available to meet your needs and desires whether it is located in Skagit, Whatcom, or Island County.

THE BEST INDOOR PLANTS FOR EVERY ROOM IN THE HOUSE There’s no better way to infuse energy into your home than with a few houseplants. Of course, with so many options to choose from, picking the right plants for each space can be a little overwhelming. To help simplify your life, here are the perfect plants for every room in your home. FOYER: PEACE LILIES

LIVING ROOM: FIDDLE LEAF FIG

Because it’s said to represent good luck and prosperity, the peace lily is an ideal plant to decorate the entryway of your home and greet visitors with. Its glossy leaves and white flowers provide an elegant focal point and, perhaps best of all, peace lilies are touted for their ability to purify the air.

The fiddle leaf fig is a favorite among plant enthusiasts, and a large living room is the perfect place to position this ornamental tree. Just make sure that this finicky houseplant receives the proper amount of sunlight and water.

KITCHEN: ALOE VERA An aloe vera plant can look great in any part of the home, but chances are you’ll benefit the most from having it in your kitchen. Should you burn your hand on a hot frying pan or get a small cut while dicing vegetables, you can break off a small piece of aloe vera and apply it directly to your skin for relief.

HOME OFFICE: SUCCULENTS Looking for a low-maintenance plant for your workspace? A few succulents are an excellent choice because they can easily fit on your desk and usually only need to be watered every week or two. Plus, when you’re feeling stressed out, they can be soothing to look at and help you calm down. BEDROOM: LAVENDER Research has shown that the smell of lavender has calming effects, which is why it’s widely used as a natural sleep aid. If you want a plant that will help you to wake up feeling refreshed each morning, you can’t go wrong with lavender.

4 TIPS FOR BUYERS TO

OVERCOME LOW INVENTORY A booming real estate market can present plenty of challenges to homebuyers, one of which is low inventory. When you find yourself in a highly competitive market that faces a shortage of listings, it’s important to work with an agent who has an in-depth understanding of how to navigate the situation. Following are several tips to help ensure you can achieve your goals, even when facing low inventory.

ASK ABOUT POCKET LISTINGS

MAKE A STRONG OFFER

In the luxury sector, in particular, it’s quite common for sellers to quietly list their property rather than blasting it all over the internet. A savvy real estate agent who’s plugged into the local market can help get you access to these pocket listings that are discreetly marketed by word-of-mouth. Furthermore, your agent should also be able to keep aware of any premarket listings that are ready to be listed but not yet marketed online, to help you get a jump start ahead of the pack.

When sellers receive multiple offers, it’s not always the highest one that’s the most appealing. In fact, there are other ways to set your offer apart, such as making a cash offer or waiving contingencies. In the event that another buyer offers the same amount, this can give you a competitive advantage.

GET READY TO ACT FAST In a hyper-competitive market, speed can make all the difference. That’s why it’s always a good idea to get pre-approved for a mortgage even before you find the ideal home so that you know exactly how much you can offer and are positioned to act quickly when the time comes. The last thing you want is to miss out on an opportunity while waiting to get approved.

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 8

BE PREPARED FOR A BIDDING WAR No buyer wants to find themselves in a bidding war for a property, but it’s all too common in a market with low inventory. If this happens, it’s important to know your limit beforehand and take the time to consider what the home is worth to you versus its current market value. After all, it can be difficult to put a price on the perfect home, especially once you’ve started getting attached to the idea of it.

CREATE A HOME OFFICE THAT WORKS

Although a growing number of businesses are reopening their in-person office spaces, many are maintaining remote workforces or implementing hybrid schedules. While the shift signals steps toward more traditional, familiar work environments, it also presents some challenges. If your temporary remote work schedule is headed for a more permanent status, or if you’ll be straddling both worlds indefinitely, it may be time to make some changes to ensure your home office is up to the task.

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 1

8/12/21 9:51 AM

DO YOUR RESEARCH Before making any significant purchases, do some digging to learn all you can about the devices and equipment you’re considering, especially if you’re planning to create an efficient setup using smart technology. While many devices work well together, that’s not always the case. You should also be aware of the controls and how you’ll manage smart functions; choose the setup that’s most intuitive for you and fits best with your workflow.

IDENTIFY UNIQUE REQUIREMENTS A successful home office needs to reflect the needs of your particular job, so you may need special equipment or tools specific to your role. For example, 63% of desk-based workers said having to collaborate with colleagues virtually is either a challenge or major barrier to working remotely, with 24% saying it is a major barrier, according to a survey by HP. If your job typically relies heavily on collaboration, you’ll probably need a video conference setup. Another common challenge: access to a printer. More than one-fourth of deskbased workers ranked having access to the office printer among the top three things they miss about the in-office experience. If your home office isn’t already equipped with a printer or you need to upgrade, you may be wondering where to start. Convenience is more important than everything else in a home printer, according to survey participants. You may also agree with the 52% of remote workers who indicated that if they were considering buying a new home printer in the future, it must be easy to use, and a simple set-up process was a leading demand. One convenient and simple option is the HP+ smart printing system, which is

powered by a cloud-based ecosystem with enhanced security, productivity and sustainability features. Paired with an optional Instant Ink automatic supplies replenishment subscription, an environmentally friendly solution to ensure you never run out of ink or toner, the system offers a perfect solution for hybrid workers and small businesses.

START SMALL Establishing a well-equipped home office takes time and money. Identify the equipment and essentials you need to get started then create a wish list with other items you can add over time. As you’re setting priorities, remember it can pay to invest in quality products from the get-go. If you have to make repairs, or upgrade or replacement equipment, you may actually spend more in the long run.

GET A STRONG NETWORK At the office, you probably had an IT department responsible for keeping your network up and running. At home, you may still have some level of tech support, but your home connectivity is likely your own concern. A good network starts with a quality router. You’ll also want to shop for an internet provider with the best speeds at a rate you can afford. Just be conscious of any restrictions on volume or speed that could hinder your ability to do your job.

KEEP SECURITY IN MIND Smart devices collect a lot of information and because much of the technology is still so new, it’s relatively vulnerable to hackers. Get familiar with privacy settings on all your devices and adjust accordingly so you’re not divulging proprietary data or other information that could be used inappropriately.

HOW TO FIND A HOME IN A

SELLER’S MARKET In a seller’s market, there are more buyers looking for a home than there are houses available. That means sellers may have an advantage, since multiple buyers may be interested in purchasing their home. If you’re looking to buy a house in a seller’s market, it’s important to know what to expect and to be prepared so you can avoid common pitfalls.

Get Pre-Approved Before you start shopping for a house, you should get pre-approved for a mortgage. That means you will submit your financial information and supporting documents to a lender, and it will review them to decide how much you can afford to pay for a house. Being pre-approved will demonstrate to a seller that you are in a good financial position, can afford a house and will be able to move forward quickly.

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 3

The amount a lender pre-approves you for is not necessarily the amount you should spend. The lender may not consider all your monthly expenses, such as childcare, or other costs of homeownership, such as property taxes, private mortgage insurance, homeowners insurance, maintenance and repairs. Assess your overall financial circumstances to figure out how much you can comfortably afford to spend for monthly mortgage payments.

8/12/21 9:51 AM

Make a Competitive and Realistic Offer You want to get a home at a good price, but in a seller’s market, you may be competing with one or more other buyers who are interested in the same house. To have a better chance at becoming the new owner, you need to present a competitive offer right off the bat. If you try to start negotiations by submitting a low bid, you may not get a chance to negotiate at all because the seller may simply choose a buyer who made a higher offer. Don’t make an initial offer for the maximum amount you can afford. In a seller’s market, bidding wars are common. You may find that because competition is fierce, the only way to win a bidding war is to offer more than the list price. That doesn’t mean you should go over your budget—it means you should focus on homes with asking prices below the amount you can afford so you will have room to negotiate. If another buyer submits a bid that is higher than what you can afford, be prepared to walk away and look for another house that’s a better fit for your budget.

Get Help From a Knowledgeable Real Estate Agent An experienced real estate agent who is familiar with the local market can guide you through the process of looking for a new home. An agent can help you decide how much to offer so you can hopefully get the house you want at a competitive price without being outbid by another buyer. If you can’t find a home with the features you want in your price range, your agent may recommend that you consider another neighborhood or city with lower home prices.

FOUR LUXE BATHROOM IDEAS TO PULL FROM HOTELS

Nothing is quite as relaxing as enjoying a luxurious hotel room. Between fine bed linens to a spa-like bathroom, when you stay at a great hotel, it can be hard to want to leave. Luckily, you can take that feeling with you when you leave—and you don’t have to steal the bathrobes to do it.

WAFFLE SHOWER CURTAIN Your utilitarian shower curtain may be doing its job just fine, but if it doesn’t currently evoke that spa-like quality, it may be time for an upgrade. Leave the plastic and themed shower curtains for the kids’ bathroom and opt instead for a monochrome waffle shower curtain. These heavy-duty fabric curtains may offer instant sophistication, but they can also

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 6

be easily cleaned in the washing machine making them practical for everyday living.

WATERFALL SHOWER HEAD You may not be able to arrange for regular room service in your home, but you can easily start the day with a luxurious shower every morning. Your current shower head may be serviceable, but if you want to add a

8/12/21 9:51 AM

little more relaxation to your daily ablutions, consider swapping it out for a waterfall shower head. These oversized shower heads are mounted overhead to provide a water stream that feels like standing under a waterfall or natural rainfall.

UPDATE THE HARDWARE Your bathroom’s aesthetic has just as much of an impact on the overall feel. Outdated faucets and hardware will always lack a spalike quality. Update your current fixtures and hardware to match a streamlined and modern style. Bronze, gold and copper make excellent choices and will be sure to offer the modern minimalist visuals that your favorite high-end hotel features.

UPGRADED BATH SHEETS After using your waterfall shower head, you’ll want to keep the spa-like quality going with more than a simple bath towel. Opt instead for bath sheets, which are bigger and more absorbent than the standard bath towel. For the most lux experience possible, be sure to opt for a higher-end bath towel that will offer a plush and comfortable texture. Your bathroom may never be the complete oasis that a high-end hotel offers, but pulling easy-to-implement inspiration from them can have a big impact on your home. With these four ideas, you’ll be relaxing in your own minispa in no time. All you will need to complete the package is a quality hotel-worthy bathrobe.

SIGNS THAT YOUR HOUSE MAY HAVE TERMITE DAMAGE Termites can eat the wood in your house and cause major destruction. There are telltale signs of a termite infestation that you may be able to spot if you know what to look out for. If you notice any of them, contact a professional to have your home inspected and treated. It’s important to note that a termite infestation isn’t always obvious, which is why you should also have a professional conduct routine inspections.

Physical Damage to Your House When termites chew through wood, they create long grooves that weaken the wood’s structure and leave it hollowed out. The damage may be located in places that you can’t see, such as behind walls and beneath floors, but wood that termites have chewed through can produce a hollow sound that indicates that your home has been infested. You may notice that drywall has small holes or that it’s drooping in places. You may see that paint is peeling and may think that it’s due to water damage, but it may actually be caused by termites. Subterranean termites can damage the subfloor and cause blisters in wood flooring. If your wood floors look like they have water damage, that may also be a sign of a termite infestation. Floorboards may squeak when people walk on them, and wood or laminate floors that have suffered serious termite damage may buckle. Other Signs That Termites Have Invaded Your Home Subterranean termites live in underground nests and dig toward houses and other wood food sources. If

Creative Living 78 Digestsize.indd 5

you see mud tubes near your house, that’s a sign that termites have burrowed underground to get to a food source. After termites leave their nest to mate, they twist off and discard their wings. If you see a pile of wings that are all the same size and that resemble fish scales near a window or door, that indicates that there’s a swarm of termites nearby. You may see piles of termite waste in the form of pellets. The pellets may look like sawdust or coffee grounds. Have Your Home Inspected for Termites on a Regular Basis If your home has been invaded by termites, you may not see evidence until they have been there for months or years and have caused widespread destruction. That’s why it’s important to schedule routine termite inspections. If there is termite damage, a professional will be able to detect it so you can take care of the problem before it becomes serious and your home requires major structural repairs.
