FAQ
Find a home that meets both your personal and financial needs. The value of your first home will likely increase in value while you own it. Buy a home that you can enjoy and afford.
Be realistic as to your home's value in the current real estate market. Many sellers are surprised as to how much the value of their home has increased over the past years. Don't miss out on the current value of your home. When you hire an experienced broker who lists homes regularly, you are most likely to get the most value out of your present home.

I recently represented a seller who had owned his home and property for over fifty years. His goal was to not only maximize the value of his home but also to stay in the home while he recovered from surgery. We received multiple offers on his home and he selected a buyer that not only paid him a significant bonus over his list price but also allowed him to reside in the home, at no cost, for an additional sixty days while he recovered. This transaction benefitted both our client and the buyers of his home, as well.
My mother was a real estate broker starting in the late 1970's. She started as an agent and later became a designated broker of a major local real estate brokerage. She loved working with and helping people find the homes of their dreams. I grew up witnessing her love of real estate and helping others and decided to pursue a similar career in 1993. I love helping others and enjoy the art of negotiating transactions that best reward my clients.
I have worked closely with home and land sellers in evaluating values and deal structures that best serve their needs. I have been a full-time real estate professional with John L. Scott since 1993 and have listed/sold over 2,000 new and resale homes and investment properties. I have received both local and national honors and awards and have been recognized as a top broker in Washington State for over thirty years. This lifetime of experience will prove valuable to you in your next real estate transaction.
