We highly recommend Brenden DuBois as a rental agent, property manager, and real estate sales agent. We first crossed paths with him when putting a property on the rental market. Brenden's responsiveness and experience sealed the deal and he quickly found solid tenants for us. As a property manager, his professionalism and attention to detail showed every step of the way. We decided to sell the rental earlier this year and asked Brenden to be the selling agent. He delivered top-notch service and his instincts on pricing were spot-on. In a difficult market, he found a qualified buyer who paid full price and closed in three weeks. Brenden delivered on all counts and we would choose him again. read more

I am a first time home buyer, and Brenden made the whole process very stress free. His knowledge of the industry was very apparent, and he made me think about things with my long term goals in mind. His communication and transparency were very appreciated throughout the process. He made sure I was informed about everything that was happening with my house as it was happening. I truly felt like I was taken care of and not just a number. I highly recommend Brenden, and will definitely use his expertise in any future real estate needs. read more

We worked with Brenden Dubois and his team for the sell of our 5br/3ba Renton home. In the span of just 2 weeks, Brenden came up with a plan, recommended local painters for some of the small projects that would add value, and had his team there to clean, stage, create AMAZING photos, and list our home. After holding offers for 6 days, we had 11 offers - above asking price. Brenden educated us about the offers and helped us navigate the intricacies of each one. Ultimately, he led us to the offer that fit our unique situation and desires. Brenden answered every panicked text message, email, and phone call so fast. He helped soothe any anxiety that the house selling process brought up. We could not have picked a better real estate agent. He went so far above and beyond our expectations. We could not have done this without him and his team. Thanks, Brenden the Broker! read more

Trevor O'Dell In 2018, we were fortunate to find Trevor when we started our search for a Seattle home coming from Michigan. We were clueless about the area and needed expert advice. Trevor was a Godsend. He was patient, methodical and gave us excellent advise when it came time to decide on which home to purchase. Fast forward three years and we made a temporary move to Luxembourg but wanted to keep our Seattle home and rent it out. Trevor was amazing... he found us the absolute best tenants and became our property manager while we were overseas. On more than one occasion, he has gone above and beyond for us while we were so far away. After almost three years in Europe we decided to move back to Michigan and needed to sell our Seattle home. Trevor stepped up AGAIN and made the process of listing and selling our home seamless. He made himself available to replace some lighting fixtures and coordinate a moving company to ship a few pieces we left behind but didn't want to sell. He was super responsive and kept in touch with us at every twist and turn. I would not hesitate to recommend Trevor to anyone in need of an expert in the real estate market in and around Seattle. read more

I worked with Ryan Raffetto to sell my 1b condo at downtown Bellevue. Ryan has an extensive experience in this area and has been very patient and responsive during the transaction. As the listing agent, Ryan truly represents my interests and fights for me for every penny. For example, in my transaction, the buyer side asked for a few hundred dollars to repair the kitchen fan. Ryan advised me the right solution and helped me sourcing a small part to fix the issue which saved hundreds of dollars for me. Another thing I would like to call out is that the transaction was done during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was a very challenging time for everyone, but Ryan got the transaction done without any discounts in the service quality. I have done multiple real estate transactions during my lifetime and Ryan is the most trustable and professional I have worked with so far. Highly recommended! read more

I worked with Brenden DuBois to sell my condo. Thanks to his consultative approach and strategic expertise, we had it listed within 4 days (with a gorgeous staging and impressive photos), accepted an offer within 48 hours, and closed in 3 weeks. I really appreciated the extra effort he put into making sure this happened so quickly! read more

When I first met Brenden, I was immediately impressed with his work ethic. While educating me on the real estate industry, Brenden respected my conservations and politely pushed me from my comfort zone. Had it not been for his knowledge and expertise, I fear my first-time home buying experience would not have gone so seamlessly. Looking forward to working with him again in the future! read more

I had a pretty good idea of what I was looking for with my first home. I was really lucky to have Connor in my corner! His knowledge of the city and specific neighborhoods was a huge asset. He was patient with me as I looked and even returned to the place I ultimately bought. He had valuable insight on turning my first home into a long-term investment. Beyond that, he worked with my busy and unpredictable schedule. In the end, I bought a beautiful home in a lovely quiet neighborhood. Exactly what I was after. He takes his job very seriously and his deep understanding of the city makes me feel comfortable that my home is in the right neighborhood for return on value! Thank you, Connor, for helping me make this happen! read more

I highly recommend Brenden DuBois. I worked with Brenden for both my home sale and purchase. He expertly negotiated my contingent purchase/sale with lots of moving parts. Brenden's work ethic, broad expertise, and calm demeanor, is exactly what is needed when going through the stress of buying, selling and moving. Brenden went above and beyond compared to any other experience I've had. He was on top of every detail, immediately responsive, and always ensured constant communication regarding where everything was at. Thank you Brenden! We are so happy in our new home and will be forever grateful for all you did to get us here! read more

We recently worked with Brenden DuBois on the sale of our condo and purchase of our new home; in short, Brenden was amazing! He was always extremely accessible, and on top of things throughout the entire process. When discussing our listing, he was up front and honest about what we could reasonably get for our condo. Having dealt with many sub-par real estate agents in the past, we decided to meet with Brenden after our mortgage broker recommended him. We had already completed a meeting with an agent from a very popular competitor with very low commission rates that we thought went pretty well. Suffice to say, within moments of meeting Brenden, we were certain that he would be the right agent for us, and boy were we right! When shopping for our new home, he arranged for an inspector who conducted the most insanely thorough home inspections we've ever seen, and saved us from a very problematic purchase that looked great, and would get by most inspectors. He answered every question we had along the way not only in a timely manner, but completely honest and in an understandable manner as well. Even with very challenging circumstances for both the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home, Brenden held everything together. We were out of the country, and used the trip to make staging and showing our condo easier while we were gone. Dealing with the time difference never once phased him, and he did a great job of coordinating showings, an open house, an inspection on our new home, and wrangling final offers over email, text messages, and a video call to do the inspection walk-through while the inspector was there. Finally, Brenden has stayed in touch since the purchase of our new home, and helped us find a few contractors for some projects we plan on tackling later this year. Overall, an absolutely amazing experience, and we highly recommend choosing Brenden as your realtor. read more

Working with Jose Perez at Pointe3 Realstate exceeded any of my expectations. As a Seattle newbie, I was not familiar at all with the market and Jose did an excellent job guiding me through the process. He prepared ahead and provided me an extensive list of options for me to choose so I could make the best use of my time during the day we visited the properties. When we met he was incredibly friendly and wend above and beyond to show me all the units in my list and answer all my questions. Jose was extremely helpful and really relieved my stress level even though we were on a very tight timeframe. It was a pleasure working with him and I would highly recommend him to any one in need of expert realstate assistance. read more

Our experience with Brenden from Pointe3 was incredible! As first time home buyers it's always scary to trust someone with such a big decision but Brenden was a great listener and made sure to represent what we wanted every step of the way. His level of communication and his quick response time was unbeatable. Brenden was always on top of sending us the best options and he was very flexible and accommodating to our busy schedules! We highly recommend using Brenden and we will definitely have him represent us for for our future needs. read more

Not the best for listing. Bait and switch shop. Originally quoted me $2750. Two days after and Once I signed the contact to list, our agent Brenden told me we should list for $2500. In three months in an exclusive listing with them, He only brought me one option from a search he was doing for another client and the offer was $2300. Sub par effort. Would not recommend as they are more of a buyers agent. read more

Set up a house tour with Michael. He never showed then texted us to let us know the house was already rented. After we showed up to the listing on the scheduled day and time. Come on. read more

Ryan was great. He helped me navigate the murky waters of purchasing a foreclosure and was head and shoulders above what I experienced on my last purchase. He knows the Seattle neighborhoods and knows how to get the best deal for his client. Thanks Ryan! read more

We worked with Brenden Dubois last year to find a rental apartment when we relocated from the east coast, so when we decided to look into buying, we reached out to Brenden. He responded quickly, put us in touch with a great mortgage broker, and had a full day of looking at 12+ houses planned within days. (Ok, it might have been my fault we looked at so many.) Brenden knows the area well, was attentive to our needs, and while we were out looking at houses he did a great job balancing offering helpful pointers and giving us space to come to our own conclusions. We ended up deciding to make an offer on our favorite house from that day and Brenden guided us in crafting a good offer quickly, encouraged us to revise it when we had an unexpected chance to, and stayed in close contact with us and the listing agent throughout the review period and the negotiations. Our (first and only) offer was accepted -- in this Seattle market that's a small (huge!) miracle -- and we had a smooth, quick closing. Brenden is a personable, friendly, hard-working real estate agent and we'd definitely work with him again and recommend him to friends. read more

Highly recommend against renting anywhere listed by Pointe3. I rented from them for 2 years without issue, but return of the deposit has been horrible. They conducted a walk through and sent a list of write up. Several of them I went and fixed or hired cleaners to fix. They later sent an email stating how much of the deposit they would be refunding. It included a few hundred dollars deducted, which seemed fair as there were some small damages remaining, however, they sent a check for over $700 hundred dollars less than what they said they were sending. It included charges for many fixes that were not in the walk through or write up (many of which I have no idea what they are even referring to), several that I had fixed prior to move out which they were aware had been fixed, and several that are clearly normal wear and tear. I sent a follow up email asking for more details around charges and they have not returned any emails in over 3 weeks. They may be fine real estate agents, but be warned when you rent from them. read more

I worked with Trevor O'Dell to lease a townhome in Bellevue. His representation is with Seattle Rental Group and Pointe3 Real Estate. I met with him myself, I did not have a real estate agent representing me because it seemed like a simple lease. On the day we met to sign the leasing agreement, he told me at the signing that there was going to be some siding work done on the townhome. I had already given notice and was set to move when he told me, so I was in a tough situation. I work from home a few days per week so noise is an issue, but I went forward. This was a huge mistake, because it ended up being a complete residing project. Trevor had clearly minimized the scope of the project and the impacts to me when we met to sign. This not being disclosed during all communications prior is a very unethical. To give him the benefit of the doubt, the HOA could have decided to do this in the few days in between, but it seems like this scale of a project is discussed and planned months in advance. During the signing process, he disclosed to me that the owner, a Bellevue based psychologist, is personal friend, and that he does contract work for him outside of real estate. He made the owner seem like a great guy. On move in day, I arrived at the home for the walk through, and Trevor met me there, and there were several cosmetic issues that were not addressed between the last tenant and me. These issues included water damaged based boards in the bath, wall marks, running toilet. These are simple things that should have been noticed by him prior and fixed. The biggest issue about the house was that it was filthy. I ended up having my 2 housekeepers spend 7 hours cleaning it from top to bottom. There was even dog feces all over the yard. As my movers were arriving with my items, the housekeepers were running around cleaning everything. I called Trevor and he sent his housekeepers back to get the dog feces, but they did not correct the cleaning issues so I paid for my housekeepers to do this. The siding project took several weeks, it was very disruptive, and it interrupted my ability to work from home on multiple occasions. I would be on a conference call and there was loud drilling, men hanging from the side of the building, it was terrible. A few months later, the owner informs me that now they are going to replace the roof. During an inspection of a neighbor's property, they found mold in the attic, so HOA decided to replace all of the roofs. Again, I believe this was decided months prior, but there is no way to know for sure. In the inspection of my unit, mold was found in the attic, but the owner informed me he was not going to do anything about it, and that I would have to live through a roof replacement. The owner offered to reduce my rent that month but 50% but the project lasted much longer, and from my perspective, it was not about the money. At this point, I started to look for another place to live because after 6 months of living there, and the constant construction, mold in the attic, I was just not able to relax in my own home. I notified the owner that I was giving notice, and proceeded to move. In talking with Trevor about my lease agreement at move out, I was informed that I would not be receiving my original deposit for the townhome, which is $2750, because I broke the terms of my lease agreement. He also threatened that I would have to pay rent until the home was re-leased. This caused me significant stress. In the end, I was held to the terms of the lease agreement, when they did not, in good faith, keep the terms of providing a quiet place to live. This is just bad business practice. With the cost of movers, my lost deposit, and moving costs it cost me almost $5000 to move. In addition, the owner insisted that I pay $150 for carpet cleaning, per my lease agreement. The house was left spotless, I had my 2 housekeepers come back after I moved out. I emailed Trevor to let him know that I was unhappy with this decision to keep my full deposit and to charge $150 on top of it. I also realized that based on the relationship with the owner, he is likely going to side with him, and not look at this in a neutral or unbiased way. Trevor never responded to my email. This is why I decided to write this review, because he could have responded, could have apologized, but he did nothing. He did nothing to encourage his client to allow me out of the lease based on the extenuating circumstances, but he did nothing. read more

I recently closed a fairly complex rental/purchase option with this group, Joe Horgan specifically, and I could not recommend them more highly. Professional, quick to respond/fix any outstanding issues and generally just working really hard to create the best outcome/s possible for their client...in this instance yours truly. I haven't been in the rental market for many years, but either things have become substantially more sophisticated over the past decade or so, OR Pointe3/Seattle Rental Group are really good at what they do. I sense the latter to be the case! read more

I hired Michael Hughes to lease my property, but he did not disclose the correct information to the tenant as intended. Two months into the lease, the tenant emailed me for a refund of a certain amount, which I had no idea the information was never relayed to the tenant. When I forwarded the email to him, he said the matter is between me and the tenant. I have all the communications in writing telling him to relay the information to the tenant, which he still did not do. He didn't want to take responsibility of his mistakes. I would not use him even if he is the last agent on earth. read more

We had a great experience working with Trevor O'Dell on our new property buy for which we were in a time crunch. He is very professional and active looking at the market and kept us notified on any sales available within our budget. When we found our dream home he quickly submitted all paperwork, communicated with us at every turn and was a fantastic negotiator! We can recommend him without hesitation! read more

Yvonne Svasand from Pointe3 helped us find a good apartment in less than a week when we had to move in a hurry. We had no familiarity with the area and only knew that our budget was going to be tight. She brought us in under budget in a nicer apartment than we'd been expecting to find. read more

Brenden was great to work with! Being first time home buyers, we were pretty nervous going into the whole process. But Brenden was on top of it and made everything clear and easy. He was always calm and super quick to respond to all (A LOT) of our questions. When we had some challenges with the seller, Brenden handled the situation professionally and always had our best interests in mind. He always made sure we were being taken care of. I would definitely recommend Brenden to anyone even thinking about buying a home in the Seattle area! read more

I purchased a home through a short sale in the fall of 2014 with the help of Kristel Dirkes at Pointe3 Real Estate. She was happy to meet me on nights and weekends to search for houses. Once I found the house I wanted, she was great about staying in touch with the bank who owned the mortgate, and the selling agent, as we worked our way through the short sale process. I was also very happy with the inspector and lender that she recommended. She made the home buying process fun and stress free. I highly recommend Kristel Dirkes and Pointe3 Real Estate for your home buying experience and will look to them in the future when I am ready to purchase my next home. read more

Joe represented the seller for a transaction at Point3 on a transaction that I was recently a part of. I can say without reservation, Joe was instrumental in getting the deal closed. When items would pop-up, Joe and the team at Point3 were on top of it right away and helped us get to the finish line despite some hurdles that came up because of issues in the building. Joe definitely added significant value to this transaction for his client and I'd look forward to working across the table from their team in the future. read more

I've worked with a few agents in the past with mixed results, but when I contacted Kim Reidy about my desired price point and location, she listened and made timely and relevant recommendations. When I found the right place, she drafted a strategy to go after the house and put things into play immediately. Her recommendations were sound and her instincts quickly proved true. We beat out several other offers in a fiercely competitive market. With absolute certainty, I got my house because of Kim. What can you say about someone who landed you your dream? Kim and Pointe3 brought an entirely different sales experience; genuine, helpful, sincere and extremely effective. read more
