If I could give this assisted living facility negative stars, I would…read more The manager, a tall dark haired man, was overly friendly in that fake sort of way. He tries way too hard to come off as charming and caring but I can tell he's not. I didn't speak to him directly but I am a great judge of character and I can tell by the way he speaks to others that he's not genuine. The caretaker/nurse who was speaking to my friend was visibly tired. She seemed burned out and like she needed a break. The morale seems to be low amongst these caretakers. She was pleasant but seemed to be frustrated and exhausted. I did overhear some of the other caretakers/nurses gossiping loudly and playing on their phones at the tables in the kitchen. It didn't feel professional. The music was country and way too loud. I don't imagine these patients want to listen to modern day country music. The Latina gal who runs the Alzheimer's unit is abrasive, rude, loud, and snotty. I can tell the employees don't respect her. I overheard them discussing how much they dislike her and I don't blame them. The way she was speaking to them was unprofessional and classless. I would not ever want to work for someone who belittles their employees, and in front of patient's family and friends. Every time I've been at this facility, which is 3 times now, I could hear her yelling at employees and reprimanding them in the most unprofessional manner. Why is she employed in this field? She belongs working as a jail guard or something. I was visiting a dear friend and if I had any say in it, I'd do what I could to find her a new facility. This one is dirty, it doesn't feel like a happy place to be, and most of the patients were visibly depressed. I understand that Alzheimer's can cause that, but I do believe more could be done to make these people happy. The overwhelming smell of urine was making it hard to breathe without gagging. I understand that this can be somewhat normal, but this was overpowering and I left nauseated. Bottom line: do not place your loved one here. They deserve better. I would not be surprised if this place closes eventually. Upon doing some research, it appears they've been cited and fined many times by the state.

This review is for the unskilled nursing + rehab facility:…read more If hell exists, it is here. The staff are extremely lazy and rude - they either ignore you, snap at you, or simply walk away when you approach them with a simple question. The patients are neglected (see various inspections and reports at https://fortress.wa.gov/dshs/adsaapps/lookup/BHPubLookup.aspx) and the facility is unkempt and dirty. If you love someone, do not place them here under any circumstances.

Chandler Square blew it. After over a year of residence, my mom's memory caused some minor…read moreirritation with a few clique people. She was probably not a good fit for Chandler Square anymore and the management decided it was time for her to leave. The reason for the one-star rating is the way she was told to leave. Yes, "told." It was ugly. Rather than being kind to a 93 year old, she was basically told to get out ASAP in a very uncaring manner. Any good that came with my mom's stay was tossed out the window by a thoughtless manager who just wanted her out. My mom is not an emotional person. This experience caused her great anxiety. And the crying and hand-wringing was painful to see. It was totally unnecessary. I occasionally thought I might one day be a resident of Chandler Square. Not! After this experience I can tell you this: I will never live in Chandler Square and I will never recommend it to anyone. My recommendations will be just the opposite. The management just does not understand how to deal with people. They are cold.

The nursing staff is good - I wish there was one more on at night. It is never ideal when your family member makes the decision (or it is made for them) to get some additional help in life but LCRI is great for offering a large menu of options to keep seniors entertained and social. My dad now rides in a men's ebike club all over town daily, scary I know but he is able to safely keep his independence. There is always something going on and the staff is really nice. The food was okay when my dad moved in and has gotten so much better... When I think about facilities for seniors, our family is happy our dad is here because he is happy he is here and has a full circle of friends.

Deborah is an extremely sweet, kind, and empathetic human who understands the anxiety we face when our loved ones need elderly assistance. She helped us navigate the process right from the beginning, giving us advice on many options. She was proactive with communication, checked in often, and spent time in person without being rushed. She didn't pressure us into anything, but rather looked out for our mom's best interest. The facility tour gave us the overall impression that the residents were very happy.

She is also a genuinely kind and caring person and someone you will want to work with.

Working with Jay Chen of Mindful Home Team was nothing short of magical. We had the chance to work…read morewith Jay on both the purchase of our new home in Auburn and the sale of our condo in Issaquah, and we can't imagine having gone through either process with anyone else. Buying our new home was something that started as a casual search. We weren't working with an agent, but after checking in with Jay for advice, it quickly became clear that we wanted him in our corner. Though the search was outside of his usual area, Jay dove into the Federal Way and Auburn markets with focus, curiosity, and care. Our first offer was on a home that felt like "the one." Jay made the long drive to be with us for the pre-inspection and helped us clarify not just what we wanted in a house, but in our future. We didn't get that one, but it brought us closer to our vision and strengthened our trust in Jay. A few days later, we found the home we were meant to have. Jay acted quickly, helped us craft the right offer, and ultimately helped us win it. Now, we're settling into a home filled with warmth, charm, and light. Our cat, Garçon, is in love with the sunny spots. We adore the yard, the character, and the energy of the space. It feels like the perfect place to grow our future together. After that, Jay helped us sell our condo of 9 years. It was a big emotional decision, and Jay was the perfect partner. He supported our desire to stay in the driver's seat while offering sharp insight, thoughtful guidance, and calm, expert presence. He advised us on pricing, staging, and prepping the unit to shine. Thanks to his strategy and care, we set a record sale price in the complex, even in a tricky market. When the buyer's financing hit snags, Jay stepped up and helped us and our HOA secure FHA approval with HUD to make the deal happen. That kind of above-and-beyond effort truly defines who he is. Jay made both buying and selling feel easy, human, and full of heart. We're so grateful. We truly can't imagine working with anyone else, truly.

He always arrived at our meetings well-prepared with lots of useful resources, and great attention to detail. He is very knowledgeable about the home-buying process.

He obviously enjoys working with people, and his work. He was good at developing rapport, and gaining our trust. I get that he follows a high standard of personal ethics. I am happy to recommend Jay for guidance to anyone in the process of negotiating the Bellingham real estate market.
