We know we can reach out and get our questions answered about the real estate market even if we aren't going to be buying or selling at that moment. There's never any sales pressure with her. When we sold our condo in downtown Tacoma to get a single family home in Central Tacoma, Marguerite advised us as we prepared. Then, when the time was right, she connected us with an amazing local agent. Eventually we bought the house next door directly from our neighbor. Even though there was no commission in it for her, Marguerite was always happy to make recommendations, advocate for us, and provide vendor recommendations for inspections and repairs. The service Marguerite provides is really unique. We love her realness and honesty as well as her real estate expertise, and we know she will always give us great service and advice. We highly, highly recommend her!

I don't even know where to begin writing this review. Anne is beyond amazing. She is truly an…read moreexceptional realtor. We sought out to find a realtor to list our first home for sale. My husband was being relocated, so technically we were supposed to use one of the company's appointed real estate agents, but I stumbled upon Anne's website through a mutual friend who had used her to sell their home in Tacoma and I immediately liked her online persona. I then found out from my neighbors that Anne had sold the house next door to us, as well as the one directly behind us (in about a week!). I knew immediately that we needed to hire Anne. So we jumped through a few hoops with our relocation company to allow us to use a different realtor. Now that our house has officially sold, I can say that this was truly the best decision we could have made. In fact the realtors that our company had selected for us had told us they were going to list our home for roughly 50-75K less than what Anne suggested listing it at. Now that it has closed, had we gone with the other realtors we would have left at least 50K on the table. That is a lot of extra money we made thanks in large part to Anne! She is so knowledgeable about the University Place market, she knew things about our house and location that even we didn't know. She went above and beyond our wildest expectations as a realtor. She answered our questions (many many questions!!) via text and email almost immediately... and this is over the course of three months from listing to final close! After we had already moved she went to our house before showings to turn on lights, heat it up and be there to greet the other real estate agents. She was even on hand to schedule our movers when the time came for us to finally move into our new home in Texas. I haven't even touched on the beautiful youtube video she made for our house which generated close to 2,000 views!! The online marketing she did to target specific buyers that would be a good fit for our house, as well as her in person demeanor. She is truly a remarkable person and realtor. My only complaint is that she doesn't live in Texas and therefore isn't able to help us buy our next house! THANK YOU ANNE! You set the bar really high! :)

She was able to answer any questions we threw at her regarding the short sale process and kept us in the loop with all activity (or lack there-of). To help with the sale, Anne created a video that really showed all the best qualities of the condo and I absolutely believe this helped us get it sold. I would highly recommend Anne to anyone buying or selling in the Tacoma area.

Fast forward to the third week of February 2025, everything aligned in my world and I contacted Amanda to do what she told me she would do the first time she stood in my kitchen three years ago, "if you give me the opportunity, I will sell your house." Late February, She walked in dressed in a sheek Amanda Shepherd outfit, oooo'd at the updates that I had made in the house, took notes, and once again looked me dead in my eyes and said, "if you trust me, I will get you the results you want and I will sell your house." I felt it in my soul! Within 48hrs Amanda had put together a checklist of finishing touches and a plan of action to sell my house. This realtor gem of the PNW had an over asking offer in hand in the first 24hours of being on market and went under contract on day five, and we closed in less than 30days. What a dream come true and what a complete blessing and alignment of all things good in the world! It only took 3years, 3 realtors, and the 3rd time of listing to have this be the "3rd times a charm". If you have the opportunity to have Amanda Shepherd as your realtor, I couldn't recommend her more! She went above and beyond in LITERALLY every step of the process including buttoning up loose ends. There aren't enough good things I can say about Amanda, but if you're looking for results and looking for a boss babe realtor that will spare no expense and go above and beyond what you could ever imagine, this is your girl! Thank you Amanda! Crying happy tears!

Please read the entirety of this review. I think you will find a compelling case for why Paige…read moreSchulte is someone you should seriously consider as your realtor. In Spring 2025, we tried to sell our house in Gig Harbor using an agent with a national realty company. We thought that the "national visibility" and their website marketing techniques would make all the difference in contrast to a local realtor. The agent seemed capable, and she only made minor recommendations for preparing the house for sale. It was mostly moving furniture around. She also used general comps to determine the sale price of the home. Trying to sell the house during that spring and summer turned about to be very difficult (interest rates, an uncertain economy), and we had very few showings and no offers. However we found it a bit surprising that we had to be proactive in adjusting the price of the home in pursuit of a sale. We finally pulled the listing in late July, because of no interested buyers. I should also note that this agent did not live in Gig Harbor. We started the sales process again in March 2026, and this time we interviewed a couple of Gig Harbor realtors. Both seemed highly capable, but Paige was the easy choice. When we met, she'd already done her homework on the house's size, sales history, and exactly the neighborhoods in Gig Harbor that were the competition for the home. That information was critical, and explained why we had little to no interest in the home the previous summer. It was simply priced too high when based on comps alone. Paige also recommended modest, but essential improvements that would help update and sell the house. In hindsight, she was much more astute about changes that would make a fundamental difference for a successful sale as compared to our previous realtor. We no longer lived in the home when we were preparing it for sale this year, and I was stunned at the enormous assistance that we had from Paige and her associate in prepping the home in just three weeks. Moreover, Paige monitored closely all of the feedback from potential buyers after we put the home on the market. And unlike the previous realtor, she had weekly open houses. All of this led me to realize that our previous realtor just viewed our home as just another in a portfolio of homes to sell. Her engagement was entirely passive. In contrast, Paige was actively involved in making sure that our home sold for the best price in a timely manner. In fact, there were even occasions when she referred to the home as "our house." Now that it has sold, I appreciate more than ever all of her intuitions about the house, the Gig Harbor market, and what it takes to sell something in a challenging market. I would not hesitate for a moment to use her services (and wisdom) again if I were to buy or sell a home in Gig Harbor.

To get an offer accepted is nearing a miracle in this sellers' market. Just watch the local news and they'll report the chaos that is the Seattle market. Bidding wars are the common place for Seattle and surrounding counties. My FIRST offer was accepted!! That's unheard of! I can simply say it was because of Carol and her years of experience. She not hustled to get the offer in that day, but proved out that I was a well-qualified buyers to ensure it got accepted. Then during the negotiations Carol ensure that the selling agent could NOT take advantage of me and try to use questionable tactics to keep my earnest money. Carol fully protected me. Carol teams up with Geoff (a local lender) to make miracles happen. They're teamwork and tenacity to get things done is unrivaled. You need a stellar team to gain an advantage in this market. You cannot go wrong when you have these two together. They're an unstoppable force. I won't expose their trade secrets, but know they WORK! Geoff pulled out all the stops to make our house buy happen. To say my file was "complicated" is an understatement, but Geoff never gave up. What started as the "perfect file" and an "easy approval" quickly became a nightmare. There was a few factors working against me that no one could have seen coming, but Geoff overcame it. His creative problem solving and perseverance saw it through. Down to the wire! But he did it!!! Carol is not only an amazing agent, but an amazing person. There are just some people that when you meet them, you know.... You're going to love them. She was love at first meet. She's comforting and overly generous! She goes above and beyond for people, sacrificing some of herself to help others. She not only did it for me, but for my friends who referred me to her. The day I received her name as a realtor was a blessing. I'd talked to a few agents before and none could compare. She was it! I knew from the reference but I now know it for myself. I not only have a realtor for life here in the PNW, but I'd like to say a guardian and protector. She's wonderful and I hope you get to experience her first hand. I truly value her. She'll work for you like no one else will. It's not just a job to her, but a passion, and can see it in her! A bright, brilliant fire! Carol there are not enough thank you's in the world for you.
