As a first-time homebuyer, I had basically zero knowledge of how the process works. I knew that I wanted to buy a condo in Seattle but that was about it. Thankfully, several friends have worked with Forey in the past and recommended him.Forey made the entire process of finding and buying my first home so incredibly easy. It honestly might have been a bigger hassle to find a new place to rent! Forey helped me identify what I wanted and found the perfect home for my needs.I would recommend Forey to anyone, and I know who I'll be calling when I start looking for my next home!
I highly recommend working with Forey. Forey has helped me buy two homes in the Seattle area, he lives in Seattle, raised his family here, understands the costs of improvement projects, and knows EVERYONE in Seattle real estate, home inspections, contractors, etc. Most importantly, Forey is end-to-end knowledgeable about schools, school programs, neighborhoods, financing, and the nuances of the Seattle market that has helped me make confident real estate decisions.
We bought this condo 8 years ago with Forey. The deal was done in 24 hrs. Forey did an excellent job. 8 year later, when we plan to sale this condo, the first agent come to our mind is Forey. Again, we get an very professional services in the new transaction including pricing, listing, showing and closing. Forey is highly recommended.

Forey and Janie listed my property with a couple days notice. The listing and pictures were professional. There were several offers within a week. They summarized the facts from all the offers, so I could make the best decision. Forey and Janie make a terrific team. It was like having two professional agents working in my listing. I was able to reach them with via email, phone, or text.
Forey was referred to my wife and me by a good friend of ours that worked with Forey for their home purchase. It was the greatest pleasure to work with him. He went above and beyond in helping us purchase our first home. He was extremely professional and overall a pleasure to take our first home buying journey with. I will not hesitate to work with Forey again if and when the time comes.

We really enjoyed working with Forey to buy our first home! He was knowledgeable about the Seattle market and the pros/cons of each home we saw; he was patient with us and happy to show multiple options to best fit our needs; he had great negotiation skills and helped us draft competitive offers to out bid others for our home. Forey treated us like family and we are so thankful to have worked with him! The biggest bonus was how responsive he was in our communication and his bias for action when touring homes, making offers, and moving through the close process. His diligence and speed allowed us to act quickly, respond to the current demands of the fast paced market, and get our dream home!

Forey and Janie helped my wife and I purchase our first home and we could not be more grateful for everything they did for us! We were completely blind on how the process worked and they were the perfect partners in making sure that we were never lost or confused throughout the entire thing. Both Forey and Janie were incredibly attentive, responsive and friendly from start to finish and we can not imagine working with anybody else in the future. Would rate 10/5 stars!

Forey was recommended to us and did not disappoint. His deep knowledge of the area was important to us coming from California. He was reliable and always early for showings. He made suggestions of places to visit that may not have made our list which were important factors in helping us learn the area and what was really important to us. He was so helpful visiting houses with as he was able to point out details that we didn't notice due to his experience renovating houses. Would highly recommend Forey!
I would highly recommend Forey!! His knowledge, skills and attention To detail were 5 star . I truly felt him having my best interest at heart made it effortless on my part. He found me the perfect home of my dreams . I will be for sure sending my friends and clients his way !
I have bought and sold 2 homes with Forey and recommend him to everyone I met looking for a realtor. Hes a great guy in general and never felt pressured or like I wasnt a priority. Knowledgeable, professional, and hard working
Forey helped me purchase my first home. I was very much unaware of all that is involved in buying a house and Forey made it all seem easy. I ended up getting a home that was a short sale that I likely would have avoided if I relied on my own searches. I felt completely comfortable at every step and thrilled with finding this home. I certainly recommend Forey & Janie Duckett to everyone. Not only are they great at what they do, they are genuinely nice people.
What a wonderful experience we had with Forey & Janie Duckett! From the very beginning of the process, Forey was attentive to our needs and so on top of sending us weekly emails on listings of houses in the areas that we were looking at. We were impressed with his ability to show up to show us houses at the last minute sometimes. We were also very impressed with his knowledge and as first time home buyers this was a gift! When we finally found our dream home, there were four other offers on the table. Forey and Janie navigated this daunting task with the skill and professionalism of seasoned realtors and were able to help us draft an offer that ended up being picked. We are eternally grateful for meeting them and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.
Forey was a wonderful agent throughout the buying process. He was communicative, informative and transparent as we went through the up's and down's of our home purchase. With his help, we beat out 4 other offers for our dream home.
Forey's extensive expertise in Seattle was very helpful. His knowledge of the area was great for the timing and securing of the purchase agreement. The purchase agreement was accepted on the first offer and was very close to the appraisal value of the property. Forey was definitely on my side during the closing process. There were a few questions that he presented to the hoa for clarification. Also, Forey coordinated with the seller's side on some of the details about the closing; there needed to be an extension and Forey properly worded the extension document in my favor. The seller wanted to make some adjustments at the close and I was happy that Forey stayed firm with the original plan rather than try and negotiate further. Forey communicated well with my lender providing me with updates as they became available. Forey also setup the escrow company and guided me how to proceed in that process. Overall, I was very pleased with the outcome. Thank you Forey!
Forey is an easy going, friendly, educated, and professional agent. He helped me to successfully sell my previous home, and buy a new one. He and his wife helped to stage my condo I was selling with what I already had to make it look more attractive to buyers. The listing pictures look professional. Contracts were 100% electronic, so it was convenient. He listened to my concerns when negotiating then gave his opinion for me to make the decision without feeling pressure. He answered to my emails and text right away. Besides his professionalism, he is a cool guy that you can chat about family and sports. Finally, he and his wife came to welcome me at my new place. It was a nice gesture showing that they were involved from the beginning until the end of the transaction.
Forey did a great job in listing my property for sale. We had a good discussions on how best to sell the property and he kept me informed as I went through the process. If I had any questions he responded quickly.I should note that Forey was my agent when I bought the property and I was also very satisfied on the buying side as well.
Forey helped us get a house we were truly excited about. Forey is timely, quick to respond, and advised us well on how to work with the sellers effectively.
Forey is great. I used his services for buying a home and selling a home. Both transactions were handled professionally and easily. Forey was easy to reach, communicated often and well, and helped us through the process, answering all of our questions along the way. I give him my highest recommendation and would use him again.
We worked with Forey and Janie to both buy and sell. They were terrific in all aspects of the process and we would highly recommend them.- Very responsive and hard working- Knowledgeable about the current market and inventory- Gave great advice and helped us through the "crazy" moments- Helped arrange everything to prepare the house to be sold (staging, painting, new counter tops, new appliances, even mowed our lawn personally once we had moved out!)- Worked tirelessly to communicate with other agents behind the scenesThanks Forey and Janie!
Forey was wonderful to work with. He stayed committed to meeting our needs and budget as we negotiated through our contract. He responded quickly, and helped guide us through any unfamiliar processes during our purchase. We wouldn't have been able to complete our sale without him!
If you are looking for a knowledgeable, upbeat and experienced realtor, look no further than Forey and Janie Duckett. As a team, they brought a wonderful dynamic to a first time experience for my wife and I: selling our first rental property. They were responsive and incredible resourceful, which made the whole process very smooth for us while mitigating any anxieties we were feeling. We were elated with the results of the sale and cant recommend them highly enough!
Forey is personable, knowledgeable and was attentive to all our concerns and needs. He helped us find an ideal condo for our daughter while she attended law school, directed a minor remodel for us while we resided out of state and then sold it for us for a tidy profit after she graduated. He and his wife Janie personally staged it for us to avoid a delay, and moved our furniture out for us when we could not be in Seattle. He earns his commission and is a delight to work with. My wife and I highly recommend him!
All I can say is don't waste your time with anyone else. Forey is everything you could hope for in someone to help find or sell your house. We've used him twice and he's just a rock star. You never wonder if you're getting the whole story or spin. He's just straight up a good guy, no muss, no fuss...amazing people skills. So full of positive energy and optimism. He makes the whole process fun and knows how to make one of life's most stressful situations easy. But maybe the most important thing is - communication. He always gets right back to you. He even helped us figure out a buying/selling situation when we were out of the Seattle area and weren't sure what to do. The guy lives at the end of Extra Mile Avenue. Nuff said.

Forey was extremely knowledgable about the Seattle market and worked patiently for a year to help me, an inexperienced first time home buyer, purchase a home that met all of my requirements. I'd highly recommend Forey to anyone looking to buy a home in the Seattle area.
Forey was very patient in helping us find the perfect property. He was a consummate professional. His knowledge of the process and local marketplace enabled us to locate, negotiate and close a deal quickly in a climate with low inventory and high demand. We highly recommend Forey without hesitation.

We have been more than pleased with Foreys expertise and professionalism in helping us find our new home. Communication was superb which was important as we were in another state for much of our search. Would highly recommend Forey Duckett without hesitation.
Forey helped us purchase a house this year. He and Janie were extremely attentive and the process was stress-free. They are knowledgeable about the different neighborhoods and a keen sense of construction quality, etc. We definitely recommend them!
Forey was great to work with. He worked extremely hard finding the right house for us and in the end my girlfriend and I found a place that we absolutely fell in love with. He was attentive, were very easy to get a hold of and I believe that without his expertise and connections, we would not have landed our home. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone in the market to buy or sell a home in Seattle. We would absolutely work with him again, and when it comes time to sell our old house we will be giving him a call.
Forey was fantastic to work with! Very knowledgable and quick to reply at any time, any day of the week. We had very specific investment needs and he took the time to understand those and show us properties that fit within our parameters. We ultimately landed in our dream home in less than 2 months in a crazy real estate market! We could not be more grateful to Forey for all of his help and expertise.
Forey helped me purchase my very first home in 2016 and was so wonderful to work with I had to go back to him for this second home. He's extremely patient and had my best interest at heart. Wasn't pushy but simply answered my questions honestly and allowed me to make my own decisions. I highly recommend him for any new or experienced home buyers. Will continue to go back to him for all future endeavors.

Forey is extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market in Seattle. He's not only professional but really thoughtful about the best way to market your property. He delivers on what he promises. We're glad to have had him represent us.
Forey has helped us buy 3 houses and sell 2 in the past 13 years. He is an amazing agent in that he listens to what we need/want while helping us to balance our needs/wants based on the market. He is a great at conceptualizing what a 'fixer' can look like with a little TLC, negotiating price & terms and fantastic with follow-up through. I would recommend Forey to anyone looking for a real estate specialist in Seattle.
Forey and his partner, Janie, were a tremendous asset in the sale of our Seattle home. They assisted us with the finer details of the process, as well as secured us an amazing sale price by negotiating the bidding war between 5 offers. Forey and Janie took the stress off of the entire process, and we highly recommend you consider hiring Forey for your home buying and selling needs!
I've worked with Forey over the past four years. Most recently he helped me purchase a home in North Capitol Hill. He's very responsive, knowledgeable about the current market, and provides excellent guidance in this super-competitive market.
I have known Forey for 3 years and he had helped my family buying and selling homes. We really enjoyed working with Forey and that's why we chose him to help us for so many years. Forey is very knowledgeable in this field, and responds to my phone calls and text quickly. I remember I was out of the country when he was trying to sell my condo and we needed to do some last minute repairs. Since I was out of the country, I panicked because I couldn't go pick up the materials. Forey drove himself with a Van to pick up the stuff so the repair could happen on time. I didn't ask him to do all these things and he just did it for me. I am glad we found Forey as our realtor, and you own't regret choosing him!
I have used for for over 9 years now leveraging for 2 sales and 2 purchases. 2 of those transactions were while I was working abroad. He has a great knowledge of Capitol Hill and surrounding areas and is always able to work around my busy schedule.
He is super attentive. Knows much abt neighborhoods in detail. Extremely responsive on showings/ questions/ comps, and an expert on how to handle offers (structuring for buy, and in selling) a super hot market where the norm is multiple bids. He is highly recommended. Has the hustle and understands the current Seattle real estate game.
We love working with Forey! He'll make any home buyer or seller at ease with his frequent and honest communication and will fight to make sure you get top dollar. He helped with every little detail including giving advice on paint colors and setting up a stager. He made this whole process a breeze! We'll work with him again in a heartbeat.
