My name is Irena Kolbert, and I am a REALTOR® who was born and raised in Whatcom County, specifically in Bellingham, WA. I love my hometown and enjoy helping buyers and sellers in the area! I specialize in first-time homebuyers, relocation, selling luxury properties, and investment/rental properties.

I started my career in property management for a few years, which provided me with valuable knowledge about rentals and investing. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Business Management and Marketing from Western Washington University to better understand how to market my listings effectively. My education has proven to be a worthwhile investment, as I have helped many sellers sell their homes—sometimes even for $100,000 over the asking price! By marketing my listings beyond just the basic MLS, I ensure that my sellers' properties are presented to a broader audience of potential buyers, resulting in the best outcomes and offers.
