This special place. Whidbey Island is a unique geographic and geologic island formation. Investing in this market place requires a solid understanding of soils, water systems, surface water control, utility installation costs, land use limitations, zoning, county codes, easements, uniform building code, development costs, climate, local politics, etc. There is limited opportunity to receive the benefits of municipal services.
