He explained the market clearly and gave us the confidence to make the right choices. He was always available, followed up on every detail, and even checked in the day he was competing in an Ironman. That kind of dedication is rare and made us feel so supported throughout the process. When it came to negotiations, his expertise really showed. He advocated for us and made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish so we could get our dream house. We're so grateful for his hard work and highly recommend him.

I worked with Ryan Raffetto to sell my 1b condo at downtown Bellevue. Ryan has an extensive…read moreexperience 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!

We highly recommend Brenden DuBois as a rental agent, property manager, and real estate sales…read moreagent. 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.

You will not find anyone more knowledgeable than Rob McGarty when it comes to real estate or even…read morehouses in general. Rob has his finger on the pulse of the local and national real estate markets, and writes a super comprehensive (and entertaining!) weekly report. He has a wealth of knowledge about virtually every aspect of the home buying process. I really appreciate that Rob shares his honest opinions when asked, which is always hugely helpful. We have worked with other real estate agents in the past who were knowledgeable and professional, but not very forthcoming about their expert opinions. Rob will give you his assessment of the condition of the house, reasonable pricing, and how competitive bidding is likely to be. He is also perceptive about potential problems that come up during a house tour or when reviewing its inspection report. Rob is also incredibly patient, not pushing you into bidding on anything above your comfort level. Together, his skillset and expertise has been a lifesaver when weighing all the factors that go into buying a house in Seattle. There are few people--anywhere, in any business--that I would recommend as highly as Rob McGarty. If you're on the fence about which real estate agent to choose, stop overthinking and go with Bushwick!

My wife and I are both first-time homeowners and we began knowing very little about the process…read more Jeff Knapp was able to take us under his wing and we really could not have asked for a better agent. We entered a competitive market and it took us almost a year before finding our home. We both have varying schedules and Jeff was always flexible in finding times to tour different houses. Jeff is super knowledgeable about different builders and build quality and was always honest in his assessments (good and bad) of different homes. He often was able to point out important things that we would have never even thought of as 1st timers and so we really appreciated having both his expertise and knowing that we could trust his advice. His style was very much one of providing us information and his own experience, but we never felt pressured at all at any point. He largely let us dictate the pace (maybe why it took a year) and never once felt like a "salesman". When it came to putting in our offer, Jeff was also incredibly helpful. The Josh Hall team apparently has a great relationship with our loan company and this relationship allowed us the prompt and streamlined communication needed be successful in this competitive housing market. (The sellers actually moved up their offer review date and when we found out that they were reviewing that night, Jeff and Thalia were able to get our loan approval and draft an offer in less than an hour.) They also knew a few "tricks" that I assume are not super well known for adding a little extra spice to our offer. Overall the communication amongst all of the Josh Hall team was excellent. All business was handled incredibly efficiently on their side. Jeff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. The entire experience was stressful by nature, but Jeff and company made it as fun and easy as possible. Highly recommend!

I feel truly blessed not only to buy the home of my dreams through his guidance and great negotiating skills, but to have a person I consider a GREAT friend. You will be thankful to work to work with this professional team that will keep you up to date throughout the whole process, buying or selling!

Dennis Tamburo listed and sold our house and I would highly recommend him. Ours was a complex…read moresituation and Dennis was able to collaborate with all party's involved during the process. I have delt with many of real estate agents and good ones are few and far between. Dennis also had the resources to help finish some of the key projects that he identified would add value to our home. Dennis was helpful in pointing out little details buyers get focused​ on. He did a great job putting together comparable houses for sale in our area to determine​ pricing, he was also able to re-adjust as the market changed. We needed the house sold, Dennis could have suggested we hold out (so he made more money at the higher price) Instead Dennis made recommendations around a price drop and our options as to what it would take to move the house fast, which demonstrated a vested interest in us and our situation instead of just trying to make a few extra bucks. The house sold fast we still made money and the closing went smoothly. I am currently using Dennis to help me buy a house and his connections and relationships with quality proven mortgage brokers has already been a big asset to me. Dennis seems to have a pretty good bead on the very aggressive market here and we are preparing to. Move fast with a tight attractive offer when the perfect fit comes along. I will continue to use his services going and would highly recommend him

We would strongly recommend Matt to our friends and family in the area…read more We met with several realtors before choosing to work with Matthew to sell our home in Bellevue, WA. Matt wasn't the lowest rate, the highest sale volume, nor did he cite a substantially higher sale price. But his recommendations on prep/staging/marketing; his full-service, detailed, and organized approach; and our ability to speak honestly about expectations really stood out. We also appreciated that he recommended ways to highlight the unique touches in the home, rather than (literally) whitewashing everything as some other realtors advised. His approach magnified the things we loved about the home and the care we put into maintaining and improving it. We were out-of-state during the majority of the sale, and relied on Matt and his team very heavily for sale preparation. He made proposals, got quotes, and oversaw work. Matt was upfront about whether he thought each suggested improvement would pay for itself, and actively advised against changes other realtors had suggested that he didn't think were worth it. He was always clear that it was our decision and also happily accommodated us doing some of the work ourselves. Because of his and his team's diligence we were able to hit our target list date, with a house that was shown in its best light. The local market had become more uncertain: markets were softening and a similar house down the street was sitting on the market after weeks, despite a price drop. We adjusted our intended list price (still within his initial range) and our expectations, but Matt remained confident in the home and how it would show. We got an under-asking offer early, and Matt went into overdrive to solicit additional offers. Ultimately we got a very attractive at-list-price offer, the house went pending within a week of listing, and we had a very smooth closing experience. There's always luck involved, but we expect that with most other realtors it would have more work for us to get the house on the market and the sale price would have been lower.

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.
