Everything started out fine. They visited our home and we showed them what we wanted to sell. They…read morewere cordial, enthusiastic seeing all the antiques and collectibles, and we developed a plan for the auction. They did a lot of good work, packaging up the items and creating the listings. We thought all was well until we saw the listings prior to the sale going live. Instead of selling individual collectibles or antiques, they put many together in groups, which resulted in a much lower return. Also, on a number of items, we specifically specified a reserve, which they said they would honor. That was not done, and, depite notifying them of that, they said it was too late, and they went ahead and sold the items anyway at an absurdly, ridiculously low amount. We had planned to utilize them for several more auctions but were sufficiently dissatisfied that we decided not to use them again.

I hired Lori Parker to sell my home in Puyallup and was ultimately disappointed with the…read moreexperience. Communication was inconsistent throughout the listing period. Many of my questions went unanswered, and I often felt I had to repeatedly follow up for information and updates. In fact, I had to contact Zillow for corrections when that's the realtor's job. The home remained on the market for an extended period with very limited feedback provided to me. Aside from being told the house showed well and one buyer wanted a larger downstairs bedroom, I received little information regarding buyer or agent impressions. After consulting another real estate professional, I learned that several staging and presentation changes were recommended immediately that had previously been dismissed. I had suggested these changes for staging purposes and was told, "it's fine." This left me questioning whether my home had been positioned as effectively as possible from the beginning. I was also surprised to discover that the website printed on the business cards was not functioning properly. As a seller, I expect marketing materials and online resources to be fully operational. My biggest concern was that I did not feel informed throughout the process. Selling a home is one of the largest financial transactions most people will ever make, and I believe sellers deserve clear communication, realistic pricing guidance, timely responses, and proactive marketing. This was my experience, and I hope it helps other sellers ask detailed questions about communication expectations, marketing plans, and pricing strategy before signing a listing agreement. I would not recommend her services.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS PERSON!! I attended an estate…read moresale put on by Kellie & and accociate of hers named John on Sunday the 23rd of August, . My friends & I encountered a dog there who did not respond well when approached, so my girlfriend who is a groomer/trainer said we shouldn't engage it. It did hang around off leash though. I purchased one of two "identical" bedroom sets & a chest. I was to come the next day to pick up. The following day I showed up with my handyman w a flatbed trailer. I was offered my bedroom set $ to be refunded to me if we would help them move stuff out of the house & take to the dump. I really needed the money, so we stayed. 5 hours later, I was returning with boxes she had asked for & her dog was out in the driveway. As I walked past her she launched her teeth into my upper left thigh. I went straight to the bathroom to check. It wasn't good. I calmly asked if their dog was up to date on immunizations. They said "She bit you?" Then they started yelling at each other over who let the dog out of their site! They were totally unconcerned about me (did not even ask one thing about how I was or anything) Kellie took off & left me there with John to finish a 6 hr day. Didn't give me her contact info! My handyman got John's phone number. The next day, my dog bite was infected, & they had not returned my payment as promised. I called & left voicemails & texts of photos of my thigh bite w John several times to get their dogs immunization records. No response. I had to do some detective work to even find out who Kellie was/who had put on the sale. She had only told me that she was out of Tacoma, only doing the sale in Buckley because she had gone to school w the deceased. I found her & left an unreturned voicemail. By then her associate, John, texted back that he did not care if I went to the hospital or not. That was it. I went to Covington Hospital to the ER on Tues Aug 25th with fever caused by an infection from the dog bite. Shots + 2 weeks of really strong antibiotics & pain! The next day I tried calling again & she happened to answer her phone. She said she did indeed run that estate sale, but she did not remember who I was!!! I reminded her that the 4 of us worked together all day on the prior Monday clearing out that house in return for a refund for my bedroom set (That was not even the bedroom set I saw! 2 identical, but they gave me a set that was dented, scratched, stained, & disgusting, while keeping the nice set for herself) She said sternly, "I do not give refunds OR exchanges. I don't know who you are or what you are talking about." I then said, well, I'm the one your dog bit. She then yelled, "You only CLAIMED she bit you!" What?! Did this information immediately jog her memory as to who I was? I told her I needed their info for my insurance & expected my promised refund for my work. She refused. I said I would have to make a police report. She laughed really loud and said "Good luck with that!" And hung up on me! I had an emotional break down at that moment. How could people be so horrific & deceitful? Rude does not even begin cover it! KELLIE PROVED TO BE AN UNTRUSTWORTHY IRRESPONSIBLE LIAR TO ME. THEIR DOG BIT ME and they refuse to take any accountability for anything they promise, say or do. She lied to me & I'm now having to dispute my purchase through my credit card company, offering her gross & damaged bedroom set back, when ever she wants to pick it up. I had to make a police report, deal w health isurance that wants her to pay my hospital bill, and get advice from an attorney because I was traumatized by this WHOLE experience with her & didn't know what to do. I'm not suing her, I'm not that kind of person. I don't want her dog put down as it was HER and her associate's fault the dog, (I found out had bitten people before!) was unleashed around strangers in someone else's home. I am taking measures to make sure they stay accountable as possible, as I found she was one of the most indecent & uncomassionate humans I'd ever met. I read her website & could not believe she's been in business this long! This is NOT A WOMAN YOU WANT TO PROPERLY AND ETHICALLY TAKE CARE OF YOUR LOVED ONES BELONGINGS. She has seen these photos of the damage her dog did to my leg...she doesn't care! She even told me her associate owned the dog & he's not on her payroll so what ever happened has nothing to do with her. NO ACCOUNTABILITY! This was run by HER business correct? She is licenced bonded and insured, so why not use her insurance to pay for my hospital visit? Why work me all day and not follow through with my refund? Her inactions and words have proved to me that she can be an absolutely horrible person who is irresponsible & unaccountable for her own mistakes. She had not one drop of compassion after their dog attacked me. DO NOT DO BUSINESS HERE! If you do, be prepared for possible unwelcome surprises on your property.
