As first time buyers navigating a competitive market, they made the entire process feel not only manageable but enjoyable. They took multiple ferry rides to Vashon just to make sure we never missed an opportunity whether it was to tour homes, attend inspections, or walk us through the next steps. Their knowledge was endless, and they made sure we were educated and informed every step of the way. Even when there were hiccups on the selling agent's end, TeamUp handled everything with grace and fierce professionalism. They are master negotiators who went above and beyond in every possible way to make this dream a reality for us. We're beyond grateful for their dedication, kindness, and expertise. We couldn't imagine doing this with anyone else. Thank you, TeamUp, for helping us find and secure our dream home! Not only are we happy but so is Louise!

Matt was very knowledgeable, patient, honest, and not pushy like most salesman.

He is extremely knowledgable and took time to walk us through the process and expectation. He was always communicative and very reliable whenever we have questions or need to look at some properties. We originally intend to be more passive while looking at houses and would take time to look through options. Matt was very receptive to that and always ensure we are truly comfortable with any decision we make. In the end, we got a new home pretty quickly also below the list price. The negotiation was handled expertly and any problems during the transactions were handled efficiently. I'd totally recommend Matt to anyone looking to buying a property actively or passively alike.

What I liked about Danny is that I never felt pressured to put an offer on homes that I didn't feel 100% on. Furthermore, I felt comfortable driving the offer process with Danny... I am a pretty risk adverse individual so I'm glad that we were able to put in a loaded offer for the condo that I am now under contract for. I didn't think that I would be moving into a new place by the end of July, and so this beats my expectation. As a first-time home buyer, I am glad that I have gone with a professional who is very responsive, honest, and knowledgeable. Thank you so much Danny!

James is a great negotiator and contract writer, even in the height of the 2018 Seattle RE Market he was able to negotiate a price for the clients that allowed them INSTANT EQUITY, before the buyers took possession of the keys!!

It's not that Rene's communication with us was bad, it was minimal. A few emails in 6 months. We were just strangely not in sync. It appears she wrote us off as problematic clients early in the relationship. After 6 months no sale, what a surprise. The coup de grace, Rene can't locate the 2 sets of keys and garage door opener to return to us. There's a lot of good realtors out there, I can't recommend Rene.

Our family bought a home in Queen Anne in 2011. This realtor was the seller's agent. When we saw…read morethe for sale sign, we called her and told her we would like to see the home. She said she was unavailable but would contact her colleague--another agent at Windemere--and have her meet us at the home to let us in. She let us in, and we ended up buying it. When we were in escrow and about to close the sale, this realtor's colleague, the one who let us in, filed a special claim for a commission IN ADDITION to the commissions being paid to this agent and our own agent. She claimed to be a participating agent who played a central role in selling us the home. We told this agent and her colleague, they should work this out amongst themselves. They refused. Rather than fight the claim, delay the purchase, and risk falling out of escrow, we paid it. It cost us several thousand dollars. We would not do business with this realtor again. She has never called us to apologize or make it right. Twice she has complained to Yelp about our review and convinced Yelp to pull it down. Twice we have put it back up. For reference, a picture of the home is included with this review.

She met the deadlines that she set for herself and helped us configure our furniture so that it would look great in the listing photos. We met with Eileen at the end of January 2016. We had multiple offers and Eileen had an offer meeting with us at her office. Buyer's agents came in and made a case for their buyers, with their contracts and terms. Eileen sifted through all the data and helped us decide which buyer had the strongest and most realistic offer. We closed on the sale of our place in early March. Again, I can't recommend Eileen enough. Definitely hire her for your real estate purchase or sale!

While we did not engage Jenni's affiliate for ongoing property management, Jenni still kept in touch throughout the year. It was her proactive communication that also helped us feel comfortable we were fulfilling all of the landlord responsibilities and following all necessary housing laws that Seattle has recently and historically passed. When that first year was up, Jenni expertly navigated a difficult transition, leaving us with zero down time on the rental and getting a new tenant signed and moved in smoothly. We will continue our relationship with Jenni as long as she'll have us, because we have been extremely pleased with her service.

To be transparent, we are property owners, so this review is from the owner's point of view. Having said that, he's been proactive in making sure the rental house is in a good shape, including regular annual maintenance. This is to ensure tenants get what they pay for. One thing David really stands out is his responsiveness and timely communications. Tips: believe it or not, best way to contact him is via email. He'll call me as soon as he's available whenever I ask him to call me via email. His email responses are mostly cryptic and straight to the point, and some folks may take that differently. But for us, we like his cut-to-the-chase, no-nonsense style. Believe us, we have had a different property manager before, and he may seem courteous, but his responsiveness and professionalism are not even close to David's.
