Andrew is the real deal! He worked both sides of my real estate transactions, when purchasing a home in North Seattle years ago and as seller's agent years later. I challenge anyone to find a professional who's more responsive, knowledgeable experienced, and proactive than Andrew. His strategizing when listing our home was truly artful and equal parts marketing, timing, and the human element. Everything we discussed and penciled-in to our sales plan came to fruition...and more! His experience in the local market definitively translates into a palpable level of predictability. Choose wisely. Choose Andrew.
Andrew made our experience buying a home simple, straightforward, and enjoyable. We were so impressed with his responsiveness and his professionalism. As first time home buyers, we needed a realtor with experience who could distill essential information about the home buying process - Andrew far exceeded our expectations and we are so happy with our new home! Andrew has also stuck with us after closing on the house, and has been a helpful resource as we make minor alterations to home. We feel really lucky to have found Andrew and we 100% recommend him!!!
Andrew is personable and a consummate real estate professional. His local knowledge about the subtleties of Seattle real estate made our deal both successful and pleasant. The best combination possible! He was supportive, analytical and anticipatory in his approach and kind. Would definitely recommend him for either a novice or an experienced real estate buyer.
Andrew Schelin Helped Bryant and I to buy our first home he is amazing helpful and really considerate I cant thank him enough for all of the time he put helping us. Thank you Andrew I wish you a great success!
Andrew did an outstanding job for our first home purchase. He was willing to fit to our schedule and preferred method of communication, giving us the utmost attention even during holiday weekends. He is very professional, and his background in architecture and construction were very helpful in aiding us understanding different features of almost 70+ homes we looked into or toured before finding our house. He also connected us with a lender who was willing to match or beat competitors while connecting us to reputable contractors for remodeling work at competitive prices.
Andrew first helped my sister-in-law purchase a house in Ballard, and Andrew also helped me and my wife purchase a condo in Shoreline. Our experience with Andrew has been really great He is very patient and will do lots of showings, adapting to what you are looking for. He is very experienced on everything from CC&Rs and HOA structure and funding, to subtle issues with the house (including facade, roof, attic, mold/smells, etc). Andrew is very polite but will carefully point out situations you should be aware of, especially on the nature and timing of a bid (e.g., he'll let you know if he thinks something is overpriced, which happens less with homes but more with condo/townhouses in the area). Andrew happily covers the Greater Seattle area, we did lots of showings in Seattle, as well as to the east (Bellevue/Kirkland/Bothell/Redmond) and north and south (West Seattle). He really does cover the greater area. If he is out of town, his office partner can do showings on your behalf so you don't need to stop looking. He is very accessible over text, email, and phone as well and answers every question. He has good relationships both with mortgage brokers and home inspectors, so he's a good one stop solution.
Andrew is a fantastic real estate agent. If you've worked with other agents and was left wondering what they actually contributed, set up a meeting with Andrew who earns every penny of his commission. He carefully listened to my short and long term goals as a first time homebuyer and strategically guided me through different scenarios, and with a background as a Contractor, he was instrumental in helping me balance the value of a home with possible renovation costs. He is generous with his time for tours, and I never once felt I was getting a sales pitch. I felt that my investment was cared for as he coached me out of submitting offers when it was not in my best interest and even cautioned me when a selling agent was potentially playing games with an offer I did put forward. Andrew was also thoughtful about how to put together strong offers in this competitive market without going wildly over asking price and I am now delighted to be moving into my new home. When the time comes for me to move again I will certainly be working with Andrew.
I can't recommend Andrew enough as a realtor! He was fantastic throughout the entire home buying process. Andrew was incredibly patient and always available to answer my questions, no matter how small. His expertise in the market was invaluable, and he helped me find the perfect home that fit all my needs. I truly felt like Andrew had my best interests at heart, and he went above and beyond to ensure a smooth closing. Thanks to Andrew, buying a home was a stress-free and positive experience.
Andrew's service is beyond my expectation. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking an exceptional experience in purchasing or selling property. His expertise in both the market and the local area is profound, enriching every facet of the house hunting journey. Andrew pays meticulous attention to detail throughout the entire process, from initial searching to closing, ensuring a seamless experience. Despite undoubtedly having a busy clientele, Andrew treated me with the utmost care and attention, making me feel like a VIP client despite my modest budget ($800k). He managed the art of communication, striking the perfect balance between being responsive and informative without overwhelming. Andrew's ability to provide accurate information and invaluable advice precisely when needed sets him apart. Truly exceptional service.
We couldn't have done it without Andrew! Couldn't have asked for a better agent to help us buy our first-ever home. He was patient with out long list of first-timer questions, gave us great area-insights about which neighborhoods would be best for us, and made what is a scary/stressful process so much easier. I can't thank you enough, Andrew!
Andrew is very personable and well informed about the Seattle area. He was very quick to answer all our questions and he always returned our calls. We did not know anything about the Seattle area, however he made it all easy to understand. He lead us through the closing process without complications. He also has a technical background which helped in evaluating homes. He is a very good realtor and I would definitely recommend him.
We full heartedly recommend Andrew. He advised us on details we would have never seen. Never pushy but to the point and clearly stated what next steps are and what need to be kept in mind. We have been unfamiliar with the entire processing process and Andrews took the time to walk us through, answering with endless patience and advised as a trusted partner.
Andrew was nothing short of amazing. Aside from being a great person, he was super knowledgeable, new exactly how to craft the offer, and was very open and honest with his thoughts on properties. He was never pushy, just honest about the amount of work and true value of each location we viewed. I cant thank him enough for his patience and willingness to engage in educational dialog around what it would take to make a house a home. Thank you Andrew for all the help! Highly recommend!
Ive purchased two houses with Andrew as my agent, and I wouldnt hesitate for an instant to use him a third time. Simply put, Andrew provides a level of personal service, specifically tailored to his clients needs, that is unmatched. Full stop. Yes, he successfully negotiated advantageous terms on my behalf. That isnt why I recommend him. I recommend him because, busy as he is, he changed his plans on extremely short notice to spend a big chunk of a Sunday showing me a property that had just dropped its listing price, knowing that it wouldnt last on the open market for long [we put in an offer that same evening]. I recommend him because, to accommodate my desire for an ultra-quick close, he reached out to his network to conclude multiple inspections and garner estimates from trusted vendors within forty-eight hours. I recommend him because, after the transaction closed, and he had absolutely no economic incentive to act on my behalf, he graciously handled a number of moving-related matters for me while I was traveling in Australia. Ive used other real estate agents in the past. They were fine. Just fine. Andrew went way beyond fine, passing exemplary along the way.
Andrew did an excellent job helping us to find a home in Seattle. He was extremely patient, responsive, flexible and supportive, as we were out of town buyers who leaned on him a great deal to provide us with video tours or back to back viewings when we were able to make brief visits to view homes. He gave us great advice about buying new versus renovating an older home, and went with us on a journey across all areas of Seattle and different housing types. He was very prompt to respond via text, phone or email, and was very easy to work with. I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking to purchase or sell a home in Seattle!
Andrew was amazing. He was Extremely knowledgeable and helpful in guiding us through the process of home buying. He was practical in his insights yet imaginative with us in our vision for the home.
From my personal experience working with him, I can say that Andrew is truly an exceptional realtor. He possesses an unparalleled knowledge of the market, and his years of experience in the industry have made him a true expert in his field. One of the things that truly stands out about Andrew is his attention to detail. He is incredibly thorough in his approach, taking the time to carefully consider every aspect of the buying process to ensure that his clients receive the very best service possible. Whether it's researching the most up-to-date market data, negotiating with other agents, or managing all of the paperwork, Andrew is always on top of everything and ensures that nothing falls through the cracks. Working with Andrew was an absolute pleasure. He is personable, professional, and truly cares about his clients. He takes the time to understand their needs, preferences, and goals, and uses that information to help them find the perfect property or sell their home for the best possible price. Overall, I would highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, experienced, detail-oriented, and an absolute pleasure to work with. He truly goes above and beyond to ensure that his clients have a positive and successful real estate experience, and I have no doubt that he will continue to be a top-performing realtor for many years to come.
Andrew is an awesome realtor. We recently purchased a home with Andrew's help and every single time we viewed a home we felt extremely confident knowing that Andrew's experience, knowledge, and professionalism would help guide us in the right direction. We were quite picky in evaluating what homes we were interested in and at no point did we feel any pressure whatsoever from Andrew. He knows the Seattle and surrounding area extremely well and could point out things in homes we never would have considered without his knowledge. If you're looking for a realtor, you won't find a better one than Andrew.
I highly recommend Andrew without the slightest reservation. As a professional (and a service provider) myself, I know first-hand what it is like to work day in and day out to look out for clients' interest and meet and exceed their expectations. For the sale of my home, Andrew was my listing agent and he went out of his way to get issues resolved quickly to ensure a success close. In hindsight, the issues I had faced were those of a principal (me as seller) and no agent needed to get his/her hands dirty. But Andrew did otherwise and we worked as a team to resolve them. In terms of his character/disposition, I don't mean to pass judgment but I have to say Andrew was dedicated, persistent and committed through the entire sale process. He is first class and there are qualities about him, which I found to be exceptional (e.g., very humble, detail oriented). During the entire journey we had together (I was out of the country), we've communicated extensively through e-mail (I count over a hundred of them over several months) and international phone calls (many of which involved me cold calling him during his earning morning or late night, Seattle time, due to time zone difference). He was always prompt and responsive. I don't write online reviews but I had to write this one because of all the great things Andrew did for me.
I have been lucky enough to work with Andrew twice now - once in the Fall of 2020 when he helped me find a home for my mom to purchase in Edmonds when she was moving to the area, and most recently, when my wife and I bought our first home this Spring. Andrew is very thoughtful, patient, responsive, and so knowledgeable, and he has been an absolute pleasure to work with on both occasions. He always goes the extra mile. When we were in negotiation to buy our home, Andrew's expertise in negotiation really shined through, and thanks to him, our bid was the winning bid amongst numerous strong competing offers. In this extremely competitive market, we feel so fortunate to have had Andrew on our side. Our family is hoping for a lifetime relationship!
Andrew was amazing! His knowledge of the area is outstanding, and he never hesitated to provide us with information on a property. We definitely felt like he had our best interest in mind. He was very thorough, responsive, and always eager to help! He helped us with selling our home and buying our new home!

We worked with Andrew in 2014 to buy our home in Edmonds, so we reached out to him when we decided to sell it in 2021 since he did a great job for us buyers back then.Andrew did a great job selling our home in 2021. He helped us prioritize the important things to get fixed, found an exterior painting contractor (which was a huge challenge due to all of them being so busy). He also was good at setting our expectations on price and how long it would take to sell. He was always responsive and went "above and beyond" to help with the final cleaning just before closing, and getting rid of some overlooked items in the fridge and furniture the buyers did not want.
I can't say enough good things about my experience buying a home with Andrew Schein. What stands out the most is his honesty and integrity. He found the absolute perfect home for me, but before he did, I had my eye on another house. He went through the inspection report and then told me not to go for it. He had too many concerns after reading the report. I told my friends about this and they were shocked. They said their experience with realtors was they will sell anything they can ( no offense to realtors!) but Andrew was not like that at all. His background in architecture and construction puts him at the front of the line in my opinion. He knows exactly what to look for in terms of red flags. The home I got is perfect in every way and I could not have done this process without Andrew. I have not purchased a home in many years and he walked me, dare I say babysat me through the entire process which I so greatly appreciate. I will recommend him to friends and family in a heartbeat!
We worked with Andrew to buy our first home in a super competitive market. He has been nothing but professional and patient! He has an extensive knowledge of the Seattle market and the 'architect eye' when it comes to details. We would highly recommend him.
Andrew helped me through my first home buying experience, and I couldn't have asked for a better realtor. High high degree of professionalism, thoroughness, and in depth knowledge across the entire process was super helpful, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone purchasing a home in the Seattle area.

We had a great experience with Andrew as first-time home buyers! He was knowledgeable, patient, and gave helpful input throughout the process. It was a super competitive market but he helped us get our offer accepted. We would definitely work with Andrew again.
As a first-time buyer and an immigrant, I highly recommend Andrew as a buyers agent for the following reasons. - Andrew knows the greater Seattle area very well. Obviously he has been in the area for a long time. I vaguely remember he said he grew up in the area. He knows Seattle very well, which is crucial for immigrants like me. In the beginning of my search, my targets were not clear. I could not make up my mind about the area, and even the type of homes I should focus on. His knowledge about Seattle helped me narrow down my targets, and finally found the home I love. - Andrew is professional. As a first-time buyer, I have a lot of noob questions. He set up a video call and educated me the process of home buying. He tried his best to answer all my questions thoroughly with patience and care. He is never impatient even when I asked repetitive questions during the home tours. Andrew significantly alleviated my anxiousness to buy a house for the first time. - Andrew never pushes the clients to increase the offer. Everyone has different preference. An agent should never pushes the clients to make an offer just to get the commission. Unfortunately, we still hear or see agents like that from time to time. In contrast, Andrew wants the buyers to get the homes they really love. He even advised against making offers to houses that are not worth it. He advised something like: "this house is XXX at most", "I would not make an offer on this one", "This one would not be competitive", or "We should walk away from this one." (These are probably not his exact words.) - Andrew responds, quickly and professionally. In such a market, we often need to discuss and to make decisions quickly, which requires the communications between the buyers and the agents to be quick and clear. It sounds simple, but it is not easy and Andrew is good at it. Once I changed my mind and decided to make an offer to a home in less than 12 hours. Andrew still made it happened! I can make many more bullets, but you know what we mean. I highly recommend Andrew as a buyer's agent.
Andrew was amazing - sooo knowledgeable about literally every aspect of homes, home improvement and negotiation. We were able to get the first house we bid on, in Seattle, at peak house frenzy, thanks to Andrew!

Andrew has already made a great job helping to buy us a house during this very competitive time. He is detail-oriented, industry well-connected and reliable. Andrew has great knowledge of the market and delivered great advice at each stage of the homebuying process. It was super easy to work with him. We would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home.
How come we can only give Andrew 5 stars? he deserves 10 or more! This guy went out of his way to help me help my senior friends sell their home of over 40 years. Not only did the house need some work that he made great arrangements with amazing people to take care of, but we were at the start of Covid lock-downs and the rules were continuing to change. We needed to maximize the sale price but knew we could not risk endangering the health of the senior sellers. Andrew made it all happen amazingly. Working with and developing safe methods to show the home, hiring and coordinating all the work necessary from before the sale, as well as the work required to close the deal, and even the final clean out of unwanted stuff including appropriate recycling. He worked seamlessly and with great understanding of the special needs of seniors during the difficult time of not only selling the home but being extra cautious about health issues. I could not recommend Andrew's skills more highly. His professionalism, caring sensitivity, attention to details, depth of knowledge, and negotiating skills are over the top. Especially for seniors, needing some extra care, patience, and help, Andrew is the guy for sure. I wish I had the words to express these in even more positive terms but I hope you get the idea. With my over 45 years of successful multi-family real estate ownership, I can truthfully say that hiring Andrew was one of the best decisions I've ever made!
Andrew was referred to us by friends who had just worked with him to purchase their first home. They couldn't speak more highly of him -- and after working with him, neither can we. As first time homebuyers, Andrew alleviated our anxieties with his calming professionalism and thorough approach. He walked us through everything in detail and made sure we were aware of all requirements at each step of the process. Andrew was a true partner throughout. He listened closely to what we were looking for while also adding his own market and construction expertise to the conversation. Because of this we had honest conversations about each property to help better inform our decision. At the end of the day, we always knew he was on our team. We highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking to buy property in the Seattle area.

My husband and I could not have been happier with our decision to work with Andrew to purchase our first home. It was important to us to find a realtor who had deep local expertise, and who would help us to be successful in the competitive Seattle market without significantly over paying; Andrew exceeded the bar in both those dimensions. He helped us to successfully purchase a home that we feel is a really good value and that checks all of our boxes. With his extensive background in residential construction/architecture, Andrew was extremely valuable to us as we evaluated properties that needed work done in order to determine whether each house would really be a realistic option for us based on our skill levels and budget. Despite what felt like a daunting real estate market as first time buyers, Andrew made the whole process easy to understand and as stress free as possible for us. He is super friendly and responsive, and we would highly recommend working with him to buy a home! We're very glad we did.
I cannot recommend working with Andrew strongly enough. He made the experience as a first time homeowner exceptionally easy and smooth. Andrew walked me through every step of the process of buying a house and gave me his honest opinion on each home we viewed. Andrew always made himself available for phone calls, house tours, and would tell me straight up if he didn't think a home was the right fit for me. Often times Andrew would make himself available to show me homes on an hours notice, which is important in Seattle's competitive market.When we found the right home, Andrew was immediate in getting a competitive offer in. Through negotiations, Andrew kept me in the loop, and help negotiate a great deal in which the sellers covered a lot of repairs and the costs of closing. Andrew worked diligently with escrow company, my mortgage broker, the sellers and everyone else that was involved in purchasing my home, always keeping me in the loop but handling much of the heavy lifting so I didn't. The experience of buying my first home was incredibly smooth and simple, and I owe that entirely to the hard work of Andrew. I will be recommending him to all of my friends who are considering buying a home in the future, and strongly recommend him to anyone else who is looking for help securing their first home.

I would highly, highly recommend Andrew. He knows the Seattle are very well and was extremely patient with us as we looked at house after house after house until we found one we liked. On many occasions, he tempered our excitement about a place by pointing out issues that we hadn't considered, costing him a potential commission, but earning our trust in the process. When it came time to put down an offer, he made it easy so all we had to do was answer a few questions and he did the rest. Same for closing.
Andrew helped make the home buying process feel more manageable. He answered all our first-time homebuyer questions with a great amount of detail and helped us take the right steps, at the right time, to help us get into the right house. We are so glad we got to work with Andrew.
We were looking for a rental house for our son in Shoreline. Since we are living in Hawaii and Covid-19, we needed a good buyer representative. We found Andrew Schein on Zillow and we had a Zoom meeting at the very beginning. We immediately felt we could trust Andrew, and we relied on his knowledge about houses and the Seattle market. Andrew is honest, hardworking, and confident. We found one house and want to know more about it. He drove to the house and took a video and told us the house is not good for us. He explained the reason very well. We found 5 more houses on Zillow, but Andrew was on vacation. He had a co-worker show these houses to my son. We picked our favorite house out of these 5 and asked several questions about the house. Despite being on vacation, Andrew drove back to Shoreline and took video and answered our questions. He was so nice and willing to help us. We decided to make an offer for the house. He never pushed us to make a quick sale. We really felt comfortable to ask any questions. He was very communicative and effective using texting and emailing. We made an offer and waited for the sellers response. We signed everything online. Our offer was accepted, and he found building inspector right away. Andrew is well connected with local specialists. He found an incredibly good inspector and his report was excellent. We could not see the house in person, so we needed to rely on the inspector. Andrew helped us made a counteroffer based on the inspection report and it was successful. The closing was very quick and easy. Andrew was on top of everything. After closing, we needed floor repair and an electrician right away. Andrew recommended several contractors which was extremely helpful. They all knew Andrew and we could tell Andrew was respected among these professionals. We are using Andrews recommendation. We plan to fix the house the best we can. We know Andrew will be around for us when we need his support. We highly recommend Andrew to anyone who wants to work on a housing project. There is no way to find the perfect house, but you can come a long way with the help of a person as capable as Andrew.

It is difficult to imagine a more responsive and careful realtor than Andrew. He is distinguished by his knowledge of construction, architecture, and design. He was always personable, easy to work with, and provided us with honest, useful feedback about how to prepare our house for sale with a maximum return on our investment. He does not miss details both when looking at a home and when thinking through business strategies. We cannot recommend Andrew enough and look forward to working with him again in the future.
We stumbled onto Andrew when my partner and I first took a look a home in Seattle. We were (still kind of are) absolute novices in house hunting and were mostly looking to see what was out and available. From the first tour with Andrew we were both very impressed with his knowledge of Seattle housing, keen eye for possible issues with homes, and fair opinions on what each house was worth and what they could be down the road. Within only a couple months we found the home we now live in and would not be here if it werent for Andrews professionalism, care and knowledge. Can not recommend him enough!
Andrew was an absolute pleasure to work with! He was incredibly knowledgeable and professional, and was always quick to respond. His honesty was refreshing and you could always tell he was giving you the real lowdown. Even during this pandemic, he went above and beyond for us. I would easily recommend him to anyone, especially a first time home buyer such as myself. I consider myself lucky for stumbling across him!
Andrew was so patient, showing us a countless number of houses before we finally found 'the one.' He is very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods we were looking in north of downtown (we ended up in Greenwood, but looked everywhere from Ballard to Ravenna). He gave us solid guidance regarding construction and styles, possible repairs, as well as price points. We really appreciated how organized he was, keeping all the details and dates in view so we could have a successful close. As needed, he was able to quickly find home inspectors, sewer inspection, and a seismic retrofit contractor to provide us the info we needed. I highly recommend him!
Andrew was recommended to me from a friend and after talking to a couple of other real estate agents it was obvious that Andrew was heads and tails above the others with his attention to what You need versus just whats available in the market. He set up viewings flexible to my schedule and made sure he understood my likes and dislikes during the walk-throughs to help him set up searches tailored to what I was looking for. He was no-pressure when there wasnt anything I wanted to see and then lightning fast when a one-of-a-kind came up and organized a viewing even though it was before the open house over the weekend so I was the first one to see the property. He provided great guidance during the offer process and then as we got into the Closing process and the Coronavirus pandemic started breaking out and I was stranded outside of the country and unable to be present to sign documents, he helped work every angle and option to help me close despite the unprecedented world situation! He was always calm, helpful, and positive despite the roadblocks we encountered. Highly recommended!!
Andrew was there with us all through our long journey of finding the house that fits our lifestyle and budget. He patiently accompanied us to most of the houses we seriously considered, provided us useful insights on buying house in the city, and very intrumental on the negotiation process when we finally submit and went tru the buying process.
Being our first time buying a home, Andrew patiently answered all our questions and gave a very detailed overview of the process. He was readily available all the time and was very responsive. We really appreciated that he continued showing us homes even when we indicated that we may not buy a home for a few months. He was also able to get us a good price reduction on a new construction. I would highly recommend him as an agent.
