When we bought our first house in Seattle, we used the first agent we found. She was incredibly inept, couldn't use a computer, showed us every property even if it obviously didn't fit our needs, had to fill out every form three times before getting it correct, and even had us sign all the way through the wrong papers at signing - so we had to do it twice! After this nightmare, we finally got a house, mostly due to our own effort and pains. We swore to never use a crappy agent again.
Four years later we are selling our house and moving to something a little bigger. Luckily Brent found us. We were immediately impressed by his organization and professionalism. His office had tons of information packets for us with all the things we needed to think about and process to sell our house and find a new one.
Brent's process took in lots of info from us and then he helped us scour the hundreds of listings for ones that would be just right for us. He was extremely helpful with gauging pricing and individual factors within each home. During the inspection, he helped the inspector check outlets and find features of the house to help speed the process, and scheduled a sewer video scoping to help us best evaluate the property.
Last week we found our dream house and this week our house goes on the market. It's amazing how pain-free and enlightening the process has been this time around with a good agent.
Choose your agent wisely, it'll be an extremely painful two months of your life if you don't use a good one. ;-)

I have been impressed twice with Windermere real estate associates. Rene Stern (http://www.renestern.com/) at the Queen Anne office is clearly the most creative, savvy and truly passionate...almost holistic personal real estate associate I have ever known. Jim Bernard (http://jimbernard.mywindermere.com/) hits all those marks, helping his clients navigate the waters of commercial real estate.
I am in the initial fact-finding phase, but from what I have gathered Jim has a multi-faceted background including experience in escrow and investment real estate. He brings it all to bear. I find Jim to be resourceful and willing to generously roll up his sleeves. I think he is a genuine guy in a shark-filled tank.
The road ahead is long. I'll keep you posted.

Sometimes you have to take the bad with the good, and sometimes you just have to expand your horizons and live a little. This is one of those cases.
On many websites you will see outdated reviews of the Willow Court apartments and most of them are pretty negative. Having lived here for some time now I can honestly say, I don't what those people are whining about.
Sure the neighbors may play the music a touch loud, but hey I am only paying $595 for 800 square feet. I have never had a security problem, my utilities work great, no leaks, no holes in the walls, and even the washers and dryers are new.
They are once again using the CCTV cameras in the entrances and you have to have a pin number to get in the building. Sure it is still Delridge and still West Seattle but as long as you carry yourself with respect and respect those around you, you aren't going to have a problem.
The staff is very kind, very receptive and will work with you to make ends meet. If you are looking for a place to live and want something affordable and convenient to downtown, this is a great option.

I was on the hunt for a new place. The guy who helped us was a guy named Scott Wilme. It ends up that this guy is my boyfriend's landlord. So we go to him and he offers us this great townhouse in Redmond. We go to check it out and it is everything we have ever wanted. and more. It has a washer/dryer in the place, a fireplace and an extra bedroom. I really had a good experience with scott and he is a very fair man. I would recommend him to any of my friends.

Becoming a first time home owner with Wendy as my agent and adviser was a wonderful and exciting experience. While working with Wendy in search for the perfect place, I found her to be extremely informative, patient, professional and caring. So many weekends were spent looking at various places in my preferred neighborhoods. At each showing, she would ask me about my like and dislike of the place. Then she would take those information, synthesize them, and find out even more potentially promising properties to show me the next time we met. I truly feel that she is a role model in her profession, informing the client with facts; providing answers/documents promptly; and guarding the client's best interest. Sitting in my perfectly cute first home, all I can say is THANK YOU, Wendy!!

Washington Mutual is a good bank, i prefer it rather then Bank of America because there are no hidden fees. My sister used to work there and said she loved the people, the job, and none of her customers never complained once. There is a Washington Mutual on 15th around 85th by Whitman Middle school. There are actaully a few so check one out.
