Emily was absolutely amazing! She was super flexible when we kept changing what areas we were looking in and was able to show us a lot of the houses we wanted to see during our search. She was thorough about checking each house we toured and had great recommendations without being pushy at all! She was very communicative during the whole process and made us feel comfortable throughout even thouWe would highly recommend Emily if you’re looking to buy/sell a home!

Kayla was the friendly, knowledgeable, encouraging agent we were looking for. She spent hours touring homes with us, setting up contractor meetings & estimates, scheduling inspections, and more. She gave us great advice about structuring a competitive offer and handled it all with incredible efficiency. Most importantly for us, Kayla brought a positive energy to every interaction. We always imagined this process would be ultra stressful, but Kayla set our minds at ease.

Storm helped my husband and I get acquainted with the Seattle real estate market over a few months as we moved into the area. She was patient with us while we discovered all the various neighborhoods. When we finally found the house we wanted she pulled together a solid offer for us and went into battle against 8 other offers! Storm was also hugely helpful with local contacts for home repair work, design work, insurance and financing. She’s smart and professional, I’d recommend her 100%.
