Local Real Estate Agent Featured in National Publication
Local Real Estate Team Thrives in Slumping Market
Bellingham, WA, June 23, 2008 – Local agent and owner of Home4Investment real estate team Ben
Kinney was recently recognized in Realtor Magazine for his outstanding record of sales in 2007. Kin-
ney was selected from more than 400 nominees for Realtor’s annual feature article titled “30 under 30.”
The feature acknowledges the accomplishments of the nation’s top and most distinguished real estate
agents under 30 years old who stood out in the industry in 2007. Realtor Magazine is a national trade
publication produced by the National Association of Realtors with the publication boasting a circulation
of more than 800,000 copies.
Kinney, 29, began his career investing in real estate in 2002 and started the Home4Investment team in
2006 becoming the owner and team manager. Kinney and his team put Home4Investment on the na-
tional radar with a total sales increase of over 300%. Home4Investment, which operates out of What-
com, Skagit, Snohomish, and King Counties, has been pushing the industry and setting the standard in
northwest real estate. Home4Investment is currently marketing more than a 165 properties and so far
has closed over 50 listings in 2008.
In a slumping market where much of the competition has run dry, Kinney has continued to expand his
business. Kinney has accomplished success which few others have found with a pressure-free yet ag-
gressive market strategy providing his customers with a competitive advantage. Instead of one agent
trying to sale your property, Home4Invesment provides you with their entire team, greatly increasing
the chances of a quick sale. Another unique advantage provided is a base of 200 websites developed and
owned by Kinney which he uses to market his listings.
Kinney and his team of professionals were also nationally recognized last September in Power Team
Report, a publication by RISmedia, which profiles the nations leading real estate teams. In 2008, along
with numerous awards from Keller Williams, Kinney also was honored by his peers receiving Realtor
of 2nd Quarter from the Whatcom County Association of Realtors.
