Betsy was an invaluable partner in my home sale in Aldarra Estates. She had an incredible network of professionals to help prepare the house for sale. They were all extremely responsive because of their relationship with Betsy, and at very reasonable rates. Betsy was my trusted real estate advisor for the local market conditions and guided my sale through a difficult market environment. I highly recommend her.

We love Betsy!! She sold our multi-million dollar home in Sammamish in one of the worst times for sellers, with high interest rates and a unique home built in 1990. She went above and beyond for us and treated us like family. Cant recommend her enough. Thank you, Betsy!!!

Betsy came very highly recommended from others in the real estate sales industry, and she did not disappoint! She handled everything from start to finish, with timely and clear communications. She developed the market data, a sales plan and schedule always respectful of my needs and input, and presented strategic recommendations for the sale and timing. She was totally professional as well as personable and genuine -- handling all preparations for the sale of the property from HOA issues to repairs and cleaning. Marketing materials were exceptional and timely, and after the first open house, the responses were just as she had anticipated. Within days the purchase was pending, and the closing process was as smooth and easy as the entire process with Betsy. She is HIGHLY recommended and will always be our realtor!!

Trust and character are essential when buying or selling a home and we always knew Betsy Matias would be our Realtor. We called Betsy in July to get her advice on timing, pricing and market preparation. She encouraged us to wait until January of the next year for the highest return, based on what she was seeing in the market. She worked with us closely from July to January, start to finish, preparing our home, leaving no detail unturned. She has an amazing network of service providers to get everything dialed in. With her background in design, she personally staged our home and together with her photographer, created exquisite marketing photos. From the interior photos to the exterior drone aerials, twilight photos to the custom property website, listing all the features of our home, she went above and beyond to ensure our home would stand out in the marketplace. She marketed our home to her vast network of other Realtors and potential buyers. After only 4 days on the market, she was able to generate multiple offers and expertly negotiate the contract terms and price far and above anything we ever expected. The level of communication, experience, attention to detail and most of all, understanding of the market and contract negotiation is what sets Betsy apart from other Realtors. She guided us through every detail with the utmost professionalism and kept us informed every step of the way aEUR" right down to the negotiations. She has systems and processes in place for every phase of the transaction and really knows how to read the market. Betsy and her team have been an invaluable resource and we have since listed another property we own with her. If you are looking for an extremely knowledgeable, hard-working and most importantly to us, truly honest professional to sell your home, Betsy Matias is simply the best.

Selling our home so quickly would not have been possible without Betsy! We called Betsy on a Friday morning, and she came out Friday afternoon. We had a very short timeframe to sell our house and Betsy went to work right away! A few days after hiring Betsy, we left for Europe for 2 weeks. Betsy handled everything - the painters, cleaners, landscaping, staging, etc., so that we could enjoy our long planned vacation. Betsy's work and expertise got our house cleaned up and on the market in record time! We sold very quickly using Betsy's recommendations, and she managed the entire process smoothly. Thank you so much, Betsy!!

We had the privilege of working with Betsy on the sale of our house at the end of 2022. Though there was a lot of uncertainty in the market, Betsy helped us navigate the ups and downs with complete professionalism. Betsys marketing materials and approach are second to none, and she was always ready with the most recent sales statistics and up-to-the-minute information regarding pricing trends. In an uncertain environment, Betsys approach and personality provided a sense of calm confidence to the process of preparing, showing, and negotiating the sale of our house. She consistently went above and beyond aEUR" staying in constant contact, offering needed guidance and support, and providing more help than we ever expected with both the sale of our house and our transition into a new home. The following January, and out of the blue, Betsy sent us a copy of our final settlement statement for the sale of our home to help us streamline our tax filing efforts. What a great help after a busy move! Beyond all of this, Betsy is an absolute pleasure to work with. We would recommend Betsy without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.

Over the last few years, buyers and sellers have had to navigate one of the most volatile and challenging housing markets in decades, a situation made even more stressful for my wife and I as we approach retirement. In this era of listing and pricing transparency, one might question the value realtors bring to home buying and selling. However, Betsy Matias is the embodiment of how empathy, market experience, and professionalism are crucial when making life changing decisions. We tapped into Betsy's expertise as we ventured into retirement planning and navigated both sellers' and buyers' markets. Her advice, coaching, and relentless hard work were instrumental in achieving remarkable returns on our home and staging investments, emerging with our marriage and sanity intact! Betsy's proficiency extends beyond her in-depth market knowledge and negotiation skills. As someone who is extremely tech-savvy, I was thrilled with how Betsy harnessed the power of the latest tools and technology. She showcased our home in the best possible light, employing 3D walkthroughs, drone aerial photos, and professional photography. This modern approach not only highlighted our property's unique features but also broadened its appeal to prospective buyers. To say that I recommend Betsy would be an understatement. However, I must add a caveat: Betsy's insights are invaluable, but they necessitate a willingness to listen and act upon her advice. If you're prepared to do so, Betsy Matias will not just meet your expectations; she will exceed them, transforming what can be a stressful process into a rewarding journey.

We feel extremely fortunate to have had Betsy as our sales agent. She helped us through the entire process from staging to closing.

From start to finish Betsy was professional, conscientious and a pleasure to work with. We put all of our trust in her as we were out of town for much of the sale of our home and had to work with her remotely. Our house could not have been in better hands. The marketing materials she produced were top notch. Then as showings began, she checked on our house daily and helped keep it in show ready condition. Her communication with us regarding staging, marketing, showings and other details of the sale was thorough and consistent. Throughout the selling process we always felt like she had our best interest at heart. We really appreciate that she didnt pressure us to take the first offers we received but instead was patient and helped us find just the perfect buyer and terms for the sale of our home. Betsy went above and beyond the level of service provided by any realtor we have worked with in the past and we highly recommend her.

It was a please to work with Betsy on the sale of our home. Betsy takes great pride in the value she provides to her clients aEUR" Working together with us to formulate a game plan, anticipating our needs, providing expert market knowledge, providing an ethical representation with superior marketing, all while providing crystal clear communication during our preparation and selling process. Betsy was able to answer any questions we had during our process and was quick to respond also. She embodies the highest level of professionalism and attention to detail. Betsy really came through for us in the negotiation phase while she reviewed five offers and recommended the most qualified buyer for our home. We are extremely excited that she was able to negotiate an incredible deal on our behalf-well over asking price! Shes by far the best agent weve ever used to sell a home, and we will recommend her to all of our family, friends, neighbors and co-workers! Betsy, you are the best!!!

It was such a pleasure to work with Betsy while selling our home. We chose Betsy because her dedication to everything she does is well known throughout our community. I knew she would put her heart into working with us. She had only been selling real estate for a few years, so I was blown away with her professionalism, preparation, knowledge and expertise. We put our house on the market just as the Covid-19 pandemic started to hit our area. With 4 kids and a super busy schedule (not everything had been shut down yet), and a lot of uncertainty, Betsy was with us every step of the way. She gave us specific tips and advice on how to prep our house to sell quickly. From the cleaning, fixing, staging, photography, and marketing materials that Betsy helped us with, we were so impressed with the top of the line service provided. All the hard work was worth it when we received an offer less than 24 hours after listing. Working with Betsy on the negotiation side was great as well. We were so pleased with the outcome and felt that Betsy was always working for us. The close was a breeze with Betsy explaining everything and simplifying things for us. Betsy goes above and beyond to build trust and make the process a little less stressful. Betsy added personal touches that I've not seen from other Realtors that we've worked with. She is always thinking about her clients and trying to make the process less stressful. I would highly recommend Betsy to anyone!

I have a lot of real estate friends, so it was hard to pick just one to help sell my house. I ended up choosing Betsy based on her artistic background and how it translated into the presentation of my house. There are a lot of competent agents out there, but few have her aesthetic eye for the details. The pictures of my house, the marketing materials, the staging and the house prep was all orchestrated by her and turned out looking exquisite, and I am confident were the determining factor in me being able to sell my house at the beginning of the pandemic. She was thoughtful and strategic in the negotiation process and she kept the closing process on track (and me sane) despite all of the hurdles. She was also very helpful in managing and taking care of the many appointments required to sell a house for which I am eternally grateful. HIghly recommend!

Betsy is literally the HARDEST working agent out there. Her attention to detail is second to none. We sold our home at a tough time to sell and she worked tirelessly to see it through. Our closing couldnt have gone smoother. We also really appreciated all the communication throughout the process, a skill not every realtor has. :) She has also worked so hard to find us a home to purchase on this end and I know once we do will go the extra mile again on our behalf.

From the start Betsy Matias was professional and efficient as we worked together to prepare my house to sell. She answered every question I had and gave me her full attention. With her precise and dedicated perfectionism, she helped me to see what was needed to be done and gave me 100% support to prepare my house. In addition, she has a keen eye for dA(C)cor, colors for home and landscape. Her referral list from landscapers, home stagers, and other repair people is outstanding. Betsy is hands-on, dedicated, competent, and doesnt leave anything for guesswork. She knows her profession well and orchestrates each milestone, from the preparing, listing, hosting multiple open houses all the way to the final closing with skilled ease. I couldnt be happier with the success of selling my home, shy of one week. Please consider tucking her name and number away and remember to give her a call when you are ready to sell or perhaps buy your new home!
