I've shown about 6 houses on Whidbey but haven't ran number recently - although I've been thinking of it as a STR market more than a LTR market.
I'd imagine most of the islands in the Puget Sound have good awful LTR numbers - lots of wealthy homeowners bidding up prices and a commute/local job market that is less attractive to renters doesn't seem like a winning formula.
Why Whidbey?
