Julian Friedman

Julian was wonderful to work with, highly knowledgeable about the Belingham area, and advocated professionally for us! I have recommend him to our friends who have also had a positive experience and were very impressed as well! - Jillian Davis

I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and have lived in Washington State for over 30 years. I arrived in Bellingham in the summer of 2010, thinking that it would be a short stop along a series of travels and new destinations, as I was an artist and a musician, often on tour. Instead, I fell in love with a city uniquely its own, making lifelong friends while exploring the surrounding wilderness and islands, and embracing the lifestyle Bellingham afforded me. I began putting down my roots. I started searching for a home in Bellingham about 6 years ago, which in a roundabout way led me to Julian Friedman of Julian & Company, who I reached out to after having heard glowing reviews around town. Seeing as I am not an investor, not a moneyed California transplant, and not the recipient of a trust fund or inheritance, I always figured buying my first home would be one of the most stressful and daunting things I'd ever do. Working with Julian & Company was the complete opposite: they made this process so streamlined, exciting, and enjoyable. In my initial phone call, Julian and I discussed my house needs and house wants, which helped us set a budget, timeframe, and realistic expectations. Julian got to work immediately and was able to quickly narrow down the search to a handful of promising options. During this process, he was readily available to bounce questions and ideas back and forth, and patiently answered a myriad of questions about all things housing and financing. Within a month, we looked at three dream houses, and we made one offer on a beautiful craftsman in the Sunnyland neighborhood. Our first offer beat out dozens of other potential buyers, many of them offering tens of thousands of dollars above mine, and landed me in my first home. And the house appraised over what I got it for, and I still got to have an inspection in an increasingly competitive market while securing a historically low interest rate. I have no doubt all of this is because of Julian and his team's combination of intuition, experience, hard work, and care - and it happened so quickly and effortlessly, my only regret was that I didn't approach them sooner. All of this is to say, thanks to Julian Friedman and his team, I now own my first home, and I am thankful for all the joys, large and small, that come with it: we've since made many amazing meals in the remodeled kitchen, played badminton in the backyard, enjoyed sunsets from the deck, and had game nights and movie marathons with friends. Last spring, I planted a garden with my dad, which provided fruits and vegetables all summer. I still see Julian around town, and he always checks in and asks me how I am and how my house is coming along. Last year, Julien delivered sugar cookies to my door, and this winter, he brought me a pie for the holidays. Julian & Company, thank you all so much, sincerely. I am grateful we crossed paths, and continue to do so. - Teo Crider

Julian made buying our home out of state an exciting and memorable experience. Not only did he get our offer accepted in a competitive market, he also gave us the warmest welcome to Bellingham and was an amazing resource to have after we moved. It really made our move and our buying experience so positive and I would highly recommend him and his team! Thank you Julian! - Kristin Henderson

Julian was a pleasure to work with on our luxury edgemoore House he made the transaction easy and removed all of the stress from the situation. Both the buying and selling were made easy with help from him and his team - Blake Hudson

Julian is the first/only agent we contacted when looking for a home in Whatcom County and we purchased the first home he showed us in less than two weeks. He helped us close under the listing price. He's busy but very responsive. You can count on him not only on finding you a home but also for home services, activities or down to the best sandwiches in town. He's also very knowledgeable of the surrounding areas. He's not only our buying but also our selling agent. Kailee, his Executive Assistant, has been very helpful to help us settle in. We're thankful Julian found us our dream home. Highly recommend Julian & Company and his team! - Iris Fu
