We want to give Matt Kearney and his team at Lamb Real Estate the highest kudos for our…read moreinteractions with them during both the buying and selling process. We were truly blessed to be able to work with Matt. Matt and his team helped us buy our dream retirement home and sell our Seattle house and they were all absolutely wonderful to work with. Matt is an excellent Realtor and he went above and beyond when it came to helping us navigate both the buying and selling aspects. He and his team were always professional, extremely knowledgeable, reliable and quick to respond to any questions we might have. Matt provided awesome referrals that never let us down. He worked with the lender and escrow company to make our home purchase went smoothly. In a time where it is unheard of to be able to buy the first house you put an offer in on, were able to do just that and at a lower price than the house was listed at. Matt helped us negotiate additional savings after receiving the results of the home inspection. Matt's advice was always on point and reflects the years of experience he has the industry. Once on the market, our Seattle home was pending within 2 days at a significantly higher price than it was listed for. This did not surprise us as Lamb Real Estate has an amazing marketing team who in conjunction with Matt perfectly showcased our Seattle home through fabulous staging, photographs and a virtual tour. Family and friends even commented on how great the house looked and the quality of the photos. We can truly say that Matt and Lamb Real Estate exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend them if you are needing to buy and/or sell a piece of property. In our wildest dreams, we never expected to be able to buy such a great new home or to sell our old home for so much money in such a short amount of time. Besides being an excellent Realtor, Matt is a kind and caring person who will treat you and your home buying and/or selling process with his personal touch. Matt really deserves 10 stars out of 5 he is that good!

He brought in a whole team to stage and the photos were top notch. The literature his team put together included a beautiful flyer highlighting our homes best features with photos and business cards with a photo of our home on them and a QR code for quick access to the listing. My neighbors were fascinated by the large number of people viewing our home. We had a 6-7 offers within 48hrs and sold our home for $115k over asking. We attribute this to Brett and his stellar team. We strongly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home!

I was a first time home buyer and she just took me under her wing, showed me the ins and outs and was on point and efficient, both which are vital characteristics in this incredibly fast housing market. I have heard so many horror stories of other buyers spending a year looking, but even in the middle of the craziness that was the summer of 2015, once I got my financing squared away, it took me about 3 months to hone in on exactly what I wanted and buy my home. It came down to 11 offers and two pre-inspections (not by me) and yet Alice still knew exactly how to put together the most competitive offer to beat the rest out. And even after the initial offer was accepted, she was relentless about working out the details of the final price (and even made sure the previous owners took away all of the furniture they left behind, which technically they were no longer responsible for after signing). She is kind, communicative, and tenacious, and she is in your camp until you find and buy the place that is right for you.

We bought our first home in late 2006, right before the sub-prime crisis. Back then we did not really know much about houses. Alice helped us. She is extremely knowledgeable and taught us many things - making the right trade-offs being the most important. We were changing our minds constantly and she was very patient with us. Through-out she never tried to rushed us to make a decision - and we really appreciate that. We ended up getting a townhouse that is closer, versus newer SFH's farther away - this property weathered the market downturn much better. It was a good 7,8 years before we needed to move again as our family grew. We went to Alice right away. Actually many of our close friends worked with her in-between. It never came to us that we needed to consider a different agent. It was 2015. This time the market was red hot (for seller), and it took us six months. With all the online resources the shopping experience became much different. Everyone sees all the houses right when they came to the market, with photos/videos and many other details about the property. We had to be very diligent about seeing the houses immediately, submitting offers the same day, deciding how much more to bid above the asking price, deciding whether to do pre-inspection (there usually wasn't enough time, so Alice's visual inspections played a huge role) or whether to waive inspection, etc. It was completely crazy. Alice was working extremely hard for us - she was responding to emails post mid-night, showing us properties right away, and trying out different bidding strategies. She went far and wide to try to collect any additional info/insights to give us the little bit of advantages. We finally won the 11th bidding war after losing the first 10. Alice this time felt like a friend, a family. We relied on her to look after our best interest.

My advice to you is to avoid this company completely…read more A few weeks ago, I went to my first and last estate sale hosted by this company and bought a very expensive Art Deco lamp made of curved slag glass panels. The base is also made of slag glass and lights up. The price of the lamp was $1,800, so I was nervous, and I asked many questions before agreeing to buy. I asked whether the lamp had any chips or cracks anywhere in the glass, and I was told that it did not. I asked whether it had any other imperfections of which I should be aware, and I was told that it did not. I asked whether it had been rewired, and the company worker said that I didn't "have to worry about that, the owner of this house took care of that." Based on the information I was given by this worker while Pam Olson, the owner of Olson Estate Sales, literally stood by her side, I bought the lamp for resale. When I got home, I began to unload the lamp from my car. I picked up the base first, and I happened to glance inside. The lamp had not been rewired. In fact, it still had what appeared to be all the original wiring from the 1930s, which was very worn out --a significant amount of the wire inside the lamp base was completely exposed in the various connections, with the wire insulation burned away. Using duct tape, the previous owner had simply spliced together an old wire to a new cord extending beyond the lamp to the wall, but the expensive work, the work needed to render the lamp completely safe, had not been done. The lamp only had a new cord to the wall and new plug. I felt then, as I do now, that the lamp constituted a fire hazard. I knew that I would have to have it fully rewired, especially because I plan to resell it. As soon as I realized the problem, I called Olson Estate Sales and explained, insisting that I drive the half-hour from home the following day to show Pam and ask for enough of a refund to cover repairs to the lamp. I asked for $150, because I was not sure how much repairs would cost and felt that amount was reasonable, especially because I had to drive an additional hour in total to try to rectify the situation. I had not anticipated having additional out-of-pocket expense to render the lamp safe for resale and had been led to believe that no additional expense would be necessary. When I arrived the next day, Pam Olson adamantly refused me any reimbursement, saying that inspecting the lamp before buying had been my responsibility, regardless of what her worker had told me. She also said, "The lamp HAS BEEN rewired, as you can see." She pointed to the cord that had been added outside the lamp. I explained that what had been done was not rewiring, only cord replacement. Pam said, "Well, it works." And that was that. Obviously, after encountering the inflexibility of Pam Olson, especially regarding such an expensive item, I will never again attend any of her sales. I believe she should have said to me, "I am terribly sorry. We had not realized that the lamp had not been rewired, because we didn't pick it up and look inside, either. Because we told you the lamp had been rewired and it had not been, and because you were relying on our word, not semantics, of course we will assume the cost of the necessary repair -- especially because the lamp was so expensive and you're not asking for an unreasonable amount. We also don't want to lose you as a customer -- and we want to preserve our reputation as an honest company." That is what I would have said. Given this experience, I cannot recommend this company to anyone.
