These days it’s hard to find someone who has been actively working at the same company for over forty years, but Jerry Blankers has been with the Muljat Group North since 1980. Jerry also has extensive experience in property development, having developed over 300 single family lots and condominiums, and has even owned and sold commercial properties and apartments. Jerry had obstacles to overcome early on in his career and feels that this prepared him to not only learn from his own setbacks, but also to help others understand how to best plan for their future; he uses his experience and knowledge to help the agents in his office reach their full potential.
The traditions of honesty, integrity and a strong work ethic are alive in this company, and yet Jerry views himself more as a counselor to his agents than a high-pressure broker. Jerry prides himself on his communication skills, guiding the agents in his office through the technical processes involved in real estate transactions.
Jerry has lived in North Whatcom County his entire life and now enjoys coaching youth basketball and softball teams in Lynden. He continues the community’s legacy of farming through his family hobby farm. He raises cattle and has a reputation in the community for producing some of the best beef around!
Serving the Lynden community is one of Jerry’s most important missions. From the Curt Maberry Memorial 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament to getting involved with Main Street events and the Lynden Chamber of Commerce, Jerry’s work ethic and attitude is apparent. Traveling, cooking, and spending lots of time with his grown kids and grandchildren keep Jerry busy and fulfilled.
