“We had an excellent experience working with The Lindsay Jackman Group for the sale of our home of 40 years. Lindsay listened to our concerns and helped us feel comfortable with the process, from our first meeting to the final closing. We especially appreciated her attention to detail and how smoothly everything was handled, from staging to negotiations. We had a long and somewhat bumpy road to reach this end, but Lindsay took us on and guided us through every step of the process with confidence and care. She provided a clear strategy for pricing and marketing, and it paid off! It was our pleasure working with Lindsay and her team and if you want someone who is committed, experienced, and genuinely looking out for your best interest, we would highly recommend The Lindsay Jackman Group to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. Thank you again Lindsay for your humor, quick wit and determination to do the best job possible and making this such a great experience! Terry and Kathy”
“After interviewing several realtors it was clear that with John's knowledge, enthusiasm, and compassion for his job, family and overall character, he was the person to trust in the sale of my Mother's estate after her passing. John promised open communication and personally helped me through some difficult days. It has been a pleasure to work with him and his sons, and am so very grateful! I would recommend John and his group to all.”
“Julie was absolutely fantastic to work with. Very easy going and knowledgeable. We were buying a home while we were still living out of state so she was very helpful in that regard. We highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Kristen Johnson was beyond knowledgable concerning the sale of my property. Always available and easy to communicate with. Always willing to assist with anything that came up during the process. I would strongly recommend her to any friends looking to buy or sell a property in our areas. And ifthe need arises she would be the first one I would call.”
“Going into first time home buying you are invetiably going to hear from others who have had poor experiences, felt swindled, or never had a full grasp on the process. I of course had my reservations and weariness going into everything. Jim turned all of those things around within a matter of a few meetings/viewings. What I appreciated most is that he allowed me to set the tone of the process. I was trying to see as many places as I could as quick as possibly outside of working full time. I was in somewhat of a time crunch with a lease coming up soon. He was always available and was never pushy or felt false. Another thing I really appreciated was that he was also available after everything was said and done. I still had some questions about a handful of things and he would call me right away to provide advice. Highly recommend regardless of your stage in the process or timeline.”
“Joe was everything we needed! Couldnt have asked for a better broker!! Can't say one tiny bad thing! Everything was perfect!!”
“Lian went well over and above based on my experience with past realtors. He identified contractors in the area, held them accountable, and ensured the property was made marketable. His tireless effort relieved me of the burden of having to be in-town to prepare the house for sale. I reside in Portland, OR and the house is in Lynnwood, WA. With all the work done I only visited the property one time prior to sale. Overall the best experience I have had with a realtor from any agency. Thanks.”
“As first-time home buyers, Andrey made sure we were well taken care of. He was very informative and communicative through every step of the way and continues to be. We will definitely use Andrey in our journeys to come! Highly recommend.”
“Our Agent Keith Hague [at BHG McKenzie Realty] was amazing! He made an impossible transaction possible we will always be grateful for all Keith's hard work.”
“Tanya was exceedingly helpful and kind and patient. She was very efficient, and on time. She was able to help me with everything I asked.”
“Excellent, the entire team was helpful.”
“Thank you for the referral. Eric did a great job getting property sold quickly.”
“Marilyn Buck was professional and prepared - the only agent who handed me info on her agency, general info on selling, and had researched recent sales to provide 2 estimates.”
“Fast and easy. Mike worked out well for me. We were able to zero-in on what I was looking for. Mike offered helpful tips and alerted me to potential issues with properties we looked at.”
“Nikki was amazing! Very detailed and dedicated to assisting us with our home buying. Couldn't have asked for a better person to work with! Her customer service was outstanding. Truly felt taken cared of and valued. Nikki displayed phenomenal customer service. We are blessed to have been given the opportunity to work with her. Definitely will work with her again during our next home buying experience!”
“Very professional and efficient in presentation and marketing from start to finish.”
“Tracey is very professional and competent. She follows through and got the job done. Her staff were also excellent and easy to work with.”
“Cody, my agent, was great. Perceptive, responsive, professional, and successful in my sale. Very high marks.”
“Mark was an excellent realtor! Professional, courteous and hands on! He went above and beyond to sell my house!!”

Columbia neighborhood in Bellingham offers residents a charming community with scenic parks, vibrant local amenities, and easy access to outdoor recreational activities, making it a wonderful place to live.
Columbia is where tree-canopied streets, classic craftsman architecture, and pocket parks create a neighborhood that feels both established and effortlessly livable. Residents stroll to summer concerts under the maples at the bandstand in Elizabeth Park, and it’s a quick bike ride to downtown Bellingham for cafés, galleries, and waterfront access.
Families prize the area’s schools. Neighborhood kids walk to Columbia Elementary School, part of Bellingham Public Schools, known for strong academics and community engagement. Playgrounds and greenspaces dot the blocks, giving younger residents easy places to explore, and nearby streets connect seamlessly to the trails network and larger city parks.

Adjacent residential districts like Lettered Streets add dining, services, and a steady calendar of community happenings.
