Local real estate on HGTV June 14

Peace Arch Real Estate, a Blaine-based real estate company, will be featured on an episode of HGTV’s “Beachfront Bargain Hunt” show that will air on Sunday, June 14 at 7:30 p.m. 

The episode called “Two Runners Looking for a Stunner” features agent Brianna Robbins while she shows a client four properties with a waterfront or a water view ranging in price from $300,000 to $500,000 in Blaine and Semiahmoo. 

Robbins, who initially thought it was a prank when the show’s producers contacted her last spring, said she got a behind the scenes look into how television is made while the crew filmed for four days in the summer. 

Stephen Mullenix, owner of Peace Arch Real Estate, said this is the first time, to his knowledge, that a Blaine real estate agency has been featured on HGTV.

“It’s great for our company, but more importantly, it’s great that Blaine is being featured in it,” Mullenix said. 

Robbins said she is excited for viewers to see the beachfront property her client selected at the end of the episode. 

Mullenix said he hopes the episode, which will feature the Semiahmoo Resort, Drayton Harbor Oyster Company and the Blaine Harbor marina, can help local businesses. 

“We want to try to highlight Blaine as much as possible so for us this is a really important and exciting moment that we get to help put Blaine on national television and get it some recognition,” Mullenix said. “Of course, it’ll help the company but it’ll help people realize how cool Blaine is and how nice of an area it is to live in.”
