Introduction of Edmonds

Edmonds is a city in Snohomish County, Washington, United States. It is located in the southwest corner of the county, facing Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains to the west. The city is part of the Seattle metropolitan area and is located 15 miles (24 km) north of Seattle and 18 miles (29 km) southwest of Everett. With a population of 39,709 residents in the 2010 U.S. census, Edmonds is the third most populous city in the county. The estimated population in 2018 was 42,767.

Edmonds was established in 1876 by logger George Brackett, who bought the land claim of an earlier settler. It was incorporated as a city in 1890, shortly before the arrival of the Great Northern Railway. Early residents of the city were employed by the shingle mills and logging companies that operated in the area until the 1950s. The hills surrounding Edmonds were developed into suburban bedroom communities in the mid-to-late 20th century and subsequently annexed into the city. Edmonds is a regional hub for the arts, with museums, specialized facilities, and major annual festivals within the city’s downtown area.

The city is connected to nearby areas by two state highways and the state ferry system, which operates a ferry route to Kingston on the Kitsap Peninsula. Public transit service in Edmonds is centered around the downtown train station, served by Amtrak and Sounder commuter trains, and includes several Community Transit bus routes that travel through outlying neighborhoods.

Owners Love Us

What our landlords said about our Edmonds management services.

I have been using GPS renting to manage my two properties in Seattle for over a year. Although I live in Los Angeles, I never need to worry even a little bit about my properties in Seattle. GPS renting did a flawless job helping me find tenants and maintaining my properties. Brain and Nick are very professional, responsive and helpful. Most importantly, their honesty had earned my trust. Despite the high quality of their services, the management fee is very fair. I never need to worry about they overcharge me for any unnecessary maintenance cost, which is very common among other property management companies.

Mr. Liu, landlord

GPS has been doing a great job in managing our property. They help us find tenants in less than a week. Brian emailed us when something needs to be fixed, and he always had a quote ready for us. Rent was wired in early each month. Now we are considering selling the house and we choose GPS as our agent without any hesitation. They are very professional and details oriented. We are first time landlord and we are very lucky to have them help us managing the property. We also tried to buy a house last summer, and GPS helped us make an offer. Even though it didn’t work out due to our financial problems, GPS was very professional through the whole process, like choosing houses, analyzing houses’ value, and making offers etc. We would definitely recommend GPS!!!

Ms. Yu, Landlord

Long story short: my property was on the market for rent with another property management company and I had to fire them after 3 months. I reached out to Nick and was SHOCKED at how fast and easy it was to rent out my place at a fair market price. The crazy part was, the place was rented after a week, and the whole process was remote – I didn’t even get to meet Nick and his team in person yet he was able to handle everything flawlessly.

Olivia W. Owner

I bought a house with Nick and Bryan. They really understand the housing market and the house itself. They always did a great analysis to help me understand the pros and cons of each investment. They are very sincere and always tell their true belief about every house. I also trust them to manage my properties in Edmonds.

Chengguang W. Owner

GPS has helped us made the purchase of two houses in Edmonds. In 2016, Nick and Bryan helped make the judgment of the decision of purchase. They are acute, professional, and patient giving many kind suggestions. In 2017, with their help again we bought the second one, and within two months they helped find the tenant. From these experiences, I think that GPS is a professional and reliable company. We really appreciate Nick, Bryan, and Cara!
