Bell-Anderson Mission & History
Our Mission:
As innovative leaders, the professionals at Bell-Anderson are dedicated to protecting and enhancing real estate investments in the communities we serve.
History:
Bell-Anderson came into existence in 1963. However, its roots go back even further then that. Before Don Bell, Jr., and Gerry Anderson started Bell-Anderson, they each had long-established insurance/real estate firms of their own. In fact Don Bell, Jr., began working for his father's insurance agency in 1946 after leaving the US Navy. Don and Gerry decided to combine their firms on September 1, 1963. Eventually they split the specialties. Gerry took the real estate division oversight and Don oversaw the company's insurance division.
It was in the late 60's and early 70's that Bell-Anderson started branching out into property management. One of the hottest trends at that time was the management of condominiums. In 1979, Don Bell was quoted in a local newspaper as saying, "If you can believe history, that's all we're going to have a few years from now." He was right. Today, condos and HOA's are the major development project of the day. From a business prospective, Bell-Anderson made a wise choice in selecting to manage condominiums and homeowners associations.
In the mid 1980's Don and Gerry sold their insurance division. With Don semi-retired and an offer from Prudential Benton, Inc. that they couldn't refuse, Don and Gerry closed the doors on their real estate sales division in 1992. At that time, they decided to continue their commercial real estate and property management divisions under the name of Bell-Anderson and Associates.
Bell-Anderson and Associates today manages single family homes, small multi family communities, condominiums, homeowners associations, and a few small commercial properties. The company was purchased in September of 2002 by Tim and Vickie Gaskill. Vickie had been an employee of Bell-Anderson since 1986. She was Gerry's general manager for approximately three years before the purchase of the company.

VICKIE GASKILL
CPM®, MPM®, RMP®, ARM®, Owner/Broker
My career in property management began over 38 years ago. Initially, I owned a carpet cleaning business that serviced the property management industry. I came to work for Bell-Anderson & Assoc., LLC, AMO® in May of 1986, first as a bookkeeper, then a property manager, and now an owner. In September of 2002, my husband, Tim, and I purchased Bell-Anderson.
I have had the opportunity during my career to manage homeowner's associations, single family dwellings, small multi-family complexes and a few commercial properties. I have earned four professional property management designations (MPM®, CPM®, RMP®, and ARM®). I serve as an instructor on the national faculty for the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM®) and the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM®). In 2010 I had the distinct honor of serving as the National President for NARPM®.
In January of 2008, a very good friend, Steve Barber, CPM®, and I wrote a book that was published by the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM®). Titled: Community Associations: A Guide to Successful Management, the book is designed to be a reference source for those who manage and or have a leadership position with community associations. In October of 2008, Steve and I were inducted into IREM®’s Academy of Authors.
In 2018 I participated in the rewrite of the book, updating and adding new topics in order to stay relevant to community associations of today.
Oftentimes I have the opportunity to go out into the community and assist others with their real estate management needs. As an owner of Bell-Anderson and Associates, LLC, AMO® I will assure all that come in contact with our company the best in professional property management as well as the best customer service that we can possibly offer. Give us a call if you are looking for professional property management services.
CARRIE SNYDER
MPM®, RMP®, ARM®, CFO
I have done everything from answering the phones, showing properties to paying the bills. Up until recently I managed all the small apartment buildings that Bell-Anderson has on contract. These are now being managed by Adriana Gomez Madrid. Adriana is going to do a great job at managing the apartments and working with the owners that I have worked with for so many years. As I have been training Adriana to take over the apartment management, I have taken over Bell-Anderson’s corporate bookkeeping as well as learning all the ins and outs of the ever-evolving world of property management from my mentor and the Bell-Anderson owner, Vickie Gaskill.
Vickie is slowly transitioning into retirement. If anyone knows Vickie they know that she will never fully retire. She is such a wealth of information we will rely on her for a long time to come. I am very excited about the new places I am going with Bell-Anderson and can’t wait to see what the future holds.
When I am not at the office I thoroughly enjoy spending time with my 3 kids and Fiancé. We love to be outside enjoying the beautiful state we live in.
I have a true passion when it comes to managing rental properties so whether you have one or many please consider Bell-Anderson & Associates, LLC for your management needs.
JEN CORP
CMCA®, General Manager/Residential Bookkeeper
Bell Anderson has been gracious enough to let me work for them since March of 2007, after having completed my schooling at Eastern Washington University in Human Resources Management. Since working at Bell-Anderson, I have learned an immense amount in the property management field. This is an industry that is always changing and I appreciate that I can count on Bell-Anderson being the stability amongst the chaos of property management. If you are looking for stability in management of your Homeowners Association, Condominium Association, or Residential needs; I would strongly recommend Bell-Anderson to assist you.
MARIA GARCIA

I moved to Washington from California in 1996 and have called the Pacific Northwest my home. Originally from Mexico, I came to United States over 35 years. Although you don’t hear an accent, I do speak Spanish. I became a family member of Bell-Anderson in April of 1999, as Condominium Support and have moved my way up in the company. I was the Residential Assistant/Maintenance Coordinator until recently when I obtained my Real Estate License and am now a Residential Property Manager. I have a passion for property management and enjoy coming in to the office every day. I am a member of National Association of Real Estate Property Managers, which assists me with current industry education to give you the best service. Outside of my Bell-Anderson family, I have two young ladies that I am very proud of. We enjoy spending quality time together, whether it’s hiking or going to the movies on a lazy day.

DEBI ALEXANDER
CMCA®, Senior Community Association Manager
I came to Bell-Anderson in 2008 and have really enjoyed working here. I started as the Front Office Coordinator for a few years before I moved to the Condo/HOA support role. After learning how associations operated and how best to serve our clients I was then moved to a full time Property Manager position, and I have remained there since. It has been a pleasure working directly with the Boards of various associations to maintain the value of their assessments and handling all their needs. I have lived in the Western Washington area all my life and I can’t imagine living anywhere else. I love this area and the mild weather we have here. When I am not working I enjoy prayer, going for walks, playing board games or visiting with my 3 grown children.
Bell-Anderson really is like one big family and our motto is “Our Family Serving Yours.” If you give us a chance we will do whatever we can to put our motto into action for you!
GAYLE DUFF
CMCA®, Community Association Manager
I have been an Association Manager at Bell Anderson for over 12 years. In 2012 I became a CMCA, Certified Manager of Community Associations. I have continued to expand my knowledge of this exciting industry by taking classes, seminars and developing relationships with other members of the Community Association Institute. Working with Boards of both Condos and HOAS has given me an expanded knowledge of Association Management as well. I have met and worked with some truly inspiring board members. I value their time and service and want to do the very best I can to make their job productive and fulfilling. Notice I didn’t say easy, because this work is not easy. I know how hard these members work to serve their communities. The work can get tough and messy but, as I tell my granddaughter when we’re baking together, sometimes you have to make a mess to make something delicious.
Although I have lived in many parts of the United States as a child of the Navy, I have always called the Pacific Northwest “Home Sweet Home”. My husband Greg and I, having raised our children have now settled into our dream home in the Auburn Black Diamond area. We are fortunate to have our grandchildren nearby and yes, I am the typical Grandma - they are perfect and can have whatever they want. We spent enough years being the tough guys with our kids!
If you are a Board member or a member of a community I work with, thank you so much for allowing me to serve as your Association Manager and for choosing Bell-Anderson. If you are looking for a great company for your Association please know that I understand you are not just another association. You are a community of family homes that are worth investing time and talent in, both yours and mine.
ADRIANA TALLMADGE
Residential Property Manager
I had the honor of joining the Bell-Anderson family in January of 2014 as a maintenance coordinator. I have been in a wide array of positions in my working experience from receptionist, restaurant server to leasing assistant, maintenance assistant and finally, maintenance coordinator. I love being able to interact with and help our clients on a daily basis with any maintenance needs they have. In my time being here I have really enjoyed my position as well as working with so many great people.
I was born in Mexico but raised in Washington State since 4 years of age. I fluently speak, read and write Spanish and enjoy helping the Hispanic community. I am a mother of three beautiful girls. Outside of work they keep me very busy! I enjoy taking trips to the parks and days out with my little ones and to take full advantage of every single minute of free time I have with them.
I feel confident in saying Bell-Anderson is a company I want to dedicate many years of my professional career to. I look forward to being a part of this team and helping take care of our clients’ individual needs.
