Bob is a wonderful person who just so happens to be fantastic at real estate. He was my agent when…read moreI sold my home in north Seattle in 2006. He counseled me wisely on the current market, comps, strategies and my home sold in 6 days. For those of you who think that it was on the market longer than usual, no - we were past the bubble, and 6 days was a gift. Bob is also very savvy on the local contractors for work leading up to putting the house on the market. I had excellent service from all who did the spiffing up and replacing of things like roof and gutters, minor electrical work, etc. The next time we're in the market for a home in the Seattle area, we will be contacting Bob! He's great. And as Susannah O. says in her review, Bob is a pleasure to work with and is a true gentleman. I give Bob 10 thumbs up!

Bob Melvey represented us when we sold one of our homes in September. It was the first time we had…read moreever sold a home so everything was new to us. We weren't crazy about selling in this market but Bob was WONDERFUL in helping us get our house ready and determine a listing price. Since this was a second home for us we were not "desperate" to sell and elected to list at the high end to see what would happen. We were ecstatic to receive a FULL PRICE offer on the second day. We did have a little bump in the road (the seller and his agent's problem) which delayed closing for a week but Bob was really great in the way he handled it on our end. Bob was also wonderful in expediting the zillion little things that have to be done to satisfy contingencies. Not only does Bob have TONS of experience (he's been in the Ballard market for several decades), he's professional, personable, honest, straight-talking, hard-working, kind, and GETS THE DEAL DONE to everyone's satisfaction. He's also a marketing whiz (or has some really great behind the scenes support). We worked with his associate too, Darlene Sozhino, and she was wonderful as well. The photos she took made our "nothing special starter home" look beautiful. She also handled the first two days the house was on the market while Bob had to go out of town. Every step of the way we were in steady hands and we are SO glad we chose this team. Real estate transactions are stressful and expensive, but Bob & team are worth EVERY PENNY.

We bought our home with Dan a few years ago. We were first time home buyers so we weren't sure what…read moreto expect. Dan made the process as smooth as possible during a crazy time in the market. He was honest about his opinions. At one point we found a home that met our checklist and that my husband loved, but I just couldn't shake a negative feeling I had about the place. Dan brought us back, and then told me, "you have to drive up to this house every day, you can't do that with that negative feeling." I so appreciated not feeling pressured, and in the end we found the perfect spot!! Since COVID, Dan has stopped by to bring us mail from our old place. He always keeps his distance and wears a mask. I am confident he does the same with his clients.

He sold my house in Magnolia for $296,000 more that we thought we could get for it with his amazing strategy and commitment. I would recommend him to anyone and do on a regular basis.

Real Estate Renaissance Man! ...with his lengthy dual-career as a hammer-swinging contractor and…read morepen-wielding Real Estate agent, Peter represents the full package when it comes to Real Estate transactions. I moved to Seattle 10 years ago and when I finally decided to buy, I was incredibly choosy when picking an agent. I fired 3 different agents before my serendipitous encounter with Peter at an open house in 2009. His ability to walk through a property and immediately identify the pros and the cons without any of the fluff you might get from other less experienced agents (...you know the ones that tell you how "cozy" this cramped room is, and how "charming" the 1960's bathroom remodel is). Peter tells you the raw truth about the sizable investment you're about to make, which in turn, enables you to quickly make an informed decision in this fast-paced market. My FIRST PURCHASE with Peter was an experience filled with countless home tours, a few lost low-ball offers (because I went below Peter's suggested offer price/terms, but I had to see what the market would bear), and utter patience, as I sought the absolute best deal I could find. Peter was an excellent sounding board throughout the process, and while we debated price, terms, etc., on every deal, he never pressured me to make an offer. Sometimes I thought he was more protective than me! In the end, he stood by me as we endured several counter-offers that resulted in an incredible deal that I still own today! When it was time to upgrade for my SECOND PURCHASE, I turned to Peter again, and he knocked it out of the park (again)! Thanks to Peter's professional relationship with the listing broker we were able to get our dream home in a very competitive market. This again, after Peter humored me, patiently allowing me to test the market myself and try a few low-ball offers in a super-heated market. Some low-balls that might even have damaged his image as a buyer's agent, but he did it to satisfy me, his first priority, his client. His assessment of the work that needed to be done on the house we ultimately purchased was spot on (literally within 5% to 10% of the bids we ended up going with). Peter was also able to refer capable craftsmen to complete the work on time and on budget. This was no small benefit. His ability to quickly assess all the major components of home renovations (structural, electrical, plumbing, roofing, etc.) and gut-check your offer with hard numbers, was HUGE! We couldn't be happier with our purchase and our continued experience with Peter Olive. We're quite happy to refer our friends to Peter, especially for those friends looking to find some "Hidden Value" in this hot market. To date, I've referred several friends to Peter that have closed on a variety of property types with Peter in Beacon Hill, Madrona, and Madison Valley.

We worked primarily with Fletch, who represented us as buyers on our first home purchase. Sound…read moreTeam Realty was a referral from our close friends. Words really cannot describe how amazing our experience has been! We felt like we were the only and the most important client throughout. Fletch has been super responsive, friendly, professional, and kind. This is a crazy real-estate market we are finding ourselves in right now, and we have had to make quite a few offers before finally getting one accepted. Fletch has showed us A TON of properties, and patiently coached us on all the ins and outs of the home-buying process. Everything from crafting an offer that would be attractive in this current market, to what to watch out for from an inspection standpoint. Many times he pointed out flaws or other inspection issues to us during the showing, even before receiving an inspection report. Fletch is a true pro, and you should listen to everything he says because there are nuggets of pure gold in every conversation that you'll have with him. He has gone above and beyond to ensure that we were getting a good deal, going as far as to reach out to seller's agents and asking about appraisals on pending properties to ensure that we have the best comps and are able to confidently put in a strong offer without risking a low appraisal. It is easy to get frustrated with the state of things right now, with properties appreciating double digits almost month-over-month. Fletch has helped us navigate this seemingly impossible situation with grace, encouragement, and patience. We really felt like we were more than just a client, we feel like we have developed a life-long relationship with Fletch and his team. We'll be customers for life! In the end Fletch got us into a home that we did not even dream of! We didn't think we could afford something like this. It's completely 100% beyond what we had hoped for!! Sound Team Realty also recommended an absolutely fantastic lender (Cameron). They worked together throughout the process as one team. We closed in under 30 days once our offer was accepted, and got a much better rate than we expected. Fletch and his team set up a very useful calendar for us to complete our closing tasks, such as transferring utilities, scheduling various meetings, and so on. The entire process has been buttery smooth from start to finish, despite the fact that we're first time homebuyers and the market is insane. Everything was always done well ahead of time, and we never felt like we were out of the loop or did not know what's going on. You will not find a better, more professional real estate team to work with! This is the complete package - simply reach out to Sound Team Realty and let them refer you to the right folks (like loan officer) because if you do you will have the best team in the world to help you navigate one of the most important decisions you'll ever make in your entire life!

After 13 years, we decided to sell the home we loved and purchase a new one. We were emotionally…read moreattached to our place and it was the first place we'd purchased so we were emotional, novice sellers. After reading reviews, we interviewed several agents. We picked Mark and his team because he came prepared with multiple options for our sale. Much of the uncertainty was eliminated because he'd done his homework prior to meeting with us. His suggestion for pricing our home was spot on as well. We also made it clear that we wanted to do very little work to get ready. Mark pointed us to service providers who made sure everything was ready to go. The house looked amazing and we had to do very little to make it happen. Our home sold in under a week in a market that was slowing down and the price point exceeded our expectations. We then moved into buying a new home. Surprisingly, this is where we had the most questions. Mark and his team were incredibly responsive and no question was too small. They helped us navigate financing, an offer and closing. We love our new place and are so happy with the service we received. I can't recommend Mark and his team highly enough.

I found Mark here on Yelp when we were researching for an agent to help us in the sale of our home…read more I was determined to find the best agent I could and initially was relying on reviews and pure intuition. However, when we met with him it became clear that he was definitely the right choice for the following reasons; He is thorough. He asked a lot of questions and took notes. He has a quick wit, and easy charm that let me know he's a good networker. He is very knowledgeable about real estate, has 14+ years of experience and has built a successful business in real estate. The process was stressful as it always is when you are moving a large family. Mark was a cool breeze when we were sweating bullets. He kept us calm when we felt like freaking out. His team and network is fantastic from staging to photography to the mortgage lender and everything in between. He always returned calls, kept us in the loop. Our home sold for well over asking price. We were so happy with him we decided to also hire him as our buyers agent. He negotiated hard for us, and continues to have our back even after the closing of our new home. Thank you Mark and Team! I would definitely recommend considering Mark if you are buying or selling real estate.

Me and my husband cannot recommend Eldon enough! He's been very hands on with us since Day 1…read more Everything went smoothly with him. He sends us house recommendations that fits our needs and wants, and we visited 2 with him. We fell in love with one and made an offer. He guided and advised us on strategizing with our offer so that the seller would pick us. He made sure that we would consider the other conditions/needs of the seller too so we could make an offer that could/would cover them. He got in contact with the sellers agent in a way where we would be more 'seen', and keeps us updated. Our process went fast, that 2 open houses were done all in one day, sent our offer 2 days later, waited on sellers decision - this is where Eldon was very hands on too (and the one of the most important part of the process), he kept in touch with the seller's agent, making follow ups and making sure that we stand out to the seller. Despite having a lower offer vs other offers and not waiving inspection, the seller chose us. We know that a lot of factors are in play with regards to being chosen by the seller, but we believe and we know that without Eldon's help and effort, we wouldn't have this beautiful house of ours. Even after getting under contract, he was still present. He also helps in following up with our lender regarding updates of our closing! He's there up to the finish line. And we just can't thank him enough! If you want a friendly but professional realtor, someone that considers your needs and wants, and most importantly someone that would go beyond your expectations just for you to be able to get that dream house of yours, look no further and just #GoWithEldon! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED SPECIALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME HOMEBUYERS!

Been meaning to write a Yelp review for Craig for a while now, finally getting around to it. Long…read morestory short, Craig is one of those Real Estate agents who you feel great about working with. In my case, I've been trying to move neighborhoods for about four years now. For a variety of reasons, the first few times we went out (for months at at time), nothing came of the search. But Craig remained available and willing to help. Am now working with him on my third time out, and he has gone above and beyond in helping on my search -- including physically mailing over 150 homes I identified as being of interest. Twice. Most recently we went to make an offer on an way over-priced house that was for sale by owner. The comps he put together were astoundingly detailed, and basically made it crystal clear to the seller that they weren't in the right place. We're still negotiating, but I am incredibly happy to have him drive that discussion. Long story short, highly recommended. I'm also happy to give more details/feedback in person if anyone wishes to reach out.

He puts his clients needs at the forefront of the transaction and stayed in constant communication with me during the transaction to ensure that we were able to reach a smooth and punctual closing. We even had an issue come up on the property that the appraisal pointed out and were still able to close on time. Typically an appraisal issue sets the file back a week so that is truly saying a lot. If you are in the market to buy or sell, Craig is a great option that will care about you and your families goals.
