ZillowVERIFIEDManesh Lakhani and Tania helped us throughout our home search journey. The overall process was seamless. Manesh is knowledgeable and shared a lot of useful information, and he was always available to meet when needed. He was very responsive and always answered our calls on time. He also attended our home inspection, which we appreciated. In addition, Manesh helped us connect with a realtor to sell our home in Virginia. Overall, it was a great experience working with them!

ZillowVERIFIED We had a great experience working with Manesh and Tania. They were proactive about following up with buyer agents and consistently shared feedback so we always understood how the market was responding to our home. They advised us honestly on market conditions and prepared us for a longer process, setting realistic expectations from the start. Manesh and Tania emphasized integrity and clarity throughout, encouraging full disclosure and transparency, which gave us confidence in every decision. Since we were selling from across the country, it meant a lot that they regularly checked on the house and helped manage the stress of a long-distance listing. Their professionalism, communication, and steady guidance made all the difference, and we highly recommend them.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Tania and Manesh Lakhani was an absolute game-changer. From the moment I handed over the keys, they took complete ownership of the process and ran with it. Selling a property on 5+ acres is no small task, especially in a competitive marketaEUR"but mine sold quickly, and I have no doubt it was due to the focused marketing strategy, meticulous preparation, and tireless work they put into getting it ready. They handled every single logistic detail with professionalism and calm expertise. Even when I felt overwhelmed or out of steam (most days!), they remained steady, responsive, and reassuring throughout. Their ability to stay composed and in control made all the difference. Tania and Manesh are EXPERT negotiators. They secured a cash offer with no contingencies and a fast closingaEUR"truly the best possible outcome. I've heard countless stories from friends and coworkers about agents needing constant direction and follow-up just to get the basics done. That was never the case with Tania and Manesh. They are full-service, all-hands-on-deck professionals who deliver results without needing to be managed. They stay ahead of market trends, have a deep understanding of the Eastsides unique dynamics and cultural nuances, and bring a level of knowledge and care thats unmatched. It's clear why so many of their clients return to them time and time againaEUR"I certainly will. I wouldn't consider using anyone else.

ZillowVERIFIED We were first-time homebuyers and had so many questions when we started the process but Manesh was incredibly patient with us from day one. Hes super knowledgeable, explained everything in a way that made sense, and has a real eye for details we wouldve easily missed. He made us feel confident every step of the way. Even after we closed, hes still helping us figure things out as new homeowners. Couldnt have asked for a better person to guide us. I highly recommend him.

ZillowVERIFIED We had the pleasure of working with Manesh Lakhani and Tania during our home-buying journey in Kirkland, and I can confidently say they were instrumental in helping us find a home that was the perfect fit for our family. Our priorities were clear aEUR" we were looking for a home with the right layout, located in a strong school district, and within a reasonable commute to work. Manesh not only understood these requirements but took the time to sit down with both me and my wife multiple times to thoughtfully coach us through the process. He helped us refine our priorities and guided us to homes that truly aligned with our needs, not just what was available on the market. There were moments when we felt discouraged, unsure if we would ever find a home we loved aEUR" but Manesh remained incredibly positive and encouraging, like a trusted friend. His attitude made a world of difference. Both he and Tania were thoughtful, proactive, and with us every step of the way aEUR" from scheduling showings to helping us evaluate pros and cons with clarity and honesty. What stood out the most was Maneshs deep knowledge and integrity. He gave us valuable feedback, even when it was tough to hear aEUR" and that honesty earned our trust. His tenacity and professional outreach are the reasons we ultimately landed our new home. We never felt rushed or pressured; instead, we felt supported and empowered to make the right decision for our family.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Manesh & Tania for our first home was an exceptional process. They were proactive, knowledgable, transparent, and responsive throughout the entire process. Manesh never rushed us in the entire process and encouraged us to consider both the highlights/downsides of the property which comes with his real estate expertise. They were both great at communicating key points which made things easier through the bidding, loan, and closing process. Even after closing, they were in touch and were open to guiding us through the home ownership process! We'd strongly encourage working with Manesh & Tania for your real estate needs in the Greater Seattle area.

ZillowVERIFIED We had the pleasure of working with Manesh & Tania, a fantastic husband-and-wife team who have now become great friends of ours. Our relationship began when they purchased our house, and I was so impressed with their negotiation skills that I immediately told my husband, aEURoeNext time we buy a house, I want Manesh to represent us!aEUR? Since then, weve bought two investment properties through them, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The first property was a breezeaEUR"we found it in just one day! The second took a bit longer, but Manesh and his team were incredibly patient and dedicated, making sure we found the perfect property that met all our needs and budget. One of the standout qualities of Manesh is his willingness to offer advice when asked, drawing from his own experience as an investor. His insights into each property were invaluable, helping us make informed decisions every step of the way. What sets Lakhani team apart is their unwavering availability and commitment to their clients. Even after closing on a house, when we encountered some issues with the HOA, Manesh didnt hesitate to offer his assistance in finding the right person to resolve the issue. His extensive knowledge and professional background, including years of experience as an executive in the corporate world, shine through in every interaction. If youre looking for realtors who are not only skilled and knowledgeable but also genuinely care about your needs, Lakhanies is the team to go with. We couldnt be happier with their service, and were grateful to have found not just outstanding realtors but also true friends. Highly recommend!

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania - We wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for all your hard work and dedication in helping us find our new home. Your support truly made this complex process a positive experience for us. We never felt pressured to rush into anything, which was amazing. You totally let us take our sweet time to find the perfect place that ticked all our boxes. Your respect for our preferences and your commitment to understanding exactly what we were looking for made all the difference. Your attentiveness and responsiveness were truly exceptional. From the lightning-fast replies to our messages to the flexibility you showed in scheduling viewings around our schedules, the communication was always clear and timely. This constant support made us feel informed and empowered throughout the entire process. Even after the closing, you never really left our side. Whenever we had questions or needed assistance (we still bother you both with questions!!), you were always available and ready to help, which we truly value. We cant recommend you both highly enough! Thanks again for everything.

ZillowVERIFIED Buying our first home in the US was a breeze thanks to Manesh and Tania. They were with us for almost a year and patiently helped us find the perfect home for us. They were very knowledgeable about the area, the construction, and the quality of the houses. They also had great negotiation skills and ensured that we got the best deal possible.

ZillowVERIFIED Maneshs attention to detail and care for clients is up there with the best weve experienced globally. As a family who has made 5 moves in 3 different countries over the past few years, Manesh has been far and away the best agent weve ever had working for us. Always available to answer any questions at any time of day and we always felt our interests were his number 1 priority from the start. Above all else, its his eye for detail that soars above the rest. Without hesitation we would recommend Manesh and Tania to anyone looking for professional and 1st class real estate agents.

ZillowVERIFIED After living in Redmond Washington for 20 years, the time had come to downsize (becoming empty nesters and retiring) and we hired Manesh and Tania Lakhani to help us sell our house. Saying they were amazing is a HUGE understatement. They were ALWAYS available, no matter what time, what day of the week (including weekends) they were both always there to answer our questions. Every question was explained with fantastic clarity and professionalism. They appraised our house providing us with numerous market comparisons and advised us on how to get top dollar (what to fix, where to paint, where to invest our time etc.) They recommended an excellent inspector, that also gave us some great guidance on small issues to fix. They selected a wonderful company to stage our house resulting in us achieving more than asking price. As part of the closing process, we encountered a big issue. Our new septic system (that we had just installed) was not properly recorded with the city. We had already moved to Colorado, and Manesh and Tania, found a new septic architect who created the necessary diagrams to properly record the septic installation, enabling us to close a week early. We can?t recommend them enough, fantastic Realtors, incredibly knowledgeable and super easy to work with.

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania have been extremely helpful and great throughout our home buying process. As first-time home buyers who were very new to the world of real estate, it was super helpful to have them by our side throughout the process. He was extremely patient during the home viewings, answered all our questions, gave us his unbiased feedback about the homes, and didn?t rush us until we found the home that we love. Manesh and Tania were very efficient with their home recommendations which were curated based on our wants and needs. From offer to closing, Manesh is very knowledgeable. In a highly sought after neighborhood, Manesh helped us close on a very desired house with his timeliness and tact. We strongly recommend him as a realtor for anyone looking to buy a house in the Greater Seattle Area.

ZillowVERIFIED Over the past few years we?ve moved multiple times across the country and have worked with excellent to mediocre real estate agents from both the buyer?s and seller?s perspectives. We are happy to say that Manesh and Tania Lakhani are among the very best agents we?ve ever worked with. We literally couldn?t have secured our new dream home without them! We started our home search in the Eastside market back in 2020 so we have experienced the market at its craziest heights to its current state in 2023. While the market has settled from its highs, good properties in top locations still are hard to come by and often go very fast. We had lost several homes in the past so we knew when we entered the market again that this time we needed a top agent that knew the area well and had the guts and decisiveness to help us win our dream home. We found that in the Lakhani team. They were recommended to us by corporate relocation and after researching their background, reviews and speaking with them over the phone, we felt assured choosing Manesh and Tania as our agents. They are smart, worldly with an eye for detail, and super friendly but with direct no nonsense demeanors that command respect and get things done fast. They also have lived in the Eastside with their own family for many years and know the ins and outs of different areas, school districts, commute logistics, shopping etc. They were always available and, due to their attention to detail and first-class service, we often felt like we were their only clients. We are incredibly picky buyers and throughout the search Manesh and Tania were patient but direct with us. Manesh always pointed out the best and worst case scenarios and didn?t shy away from being a critical eye. This was especially helpful as we were conducting our home search from across the country so their expert guidance, feedback and availability to quickly do remote tours helped save us from taking multiple expensive trips across the country. When a perfect property came to market in Redmond, Manesh was first on site to give us a virtual tour and within hours we were boarding a flight to see the home in person before the open house the next day. As soon as we told Manesh this was the one, he and Tania turned into high gear, established a rapport with the selling agent, represented us in the best light and really came through for us. We had some concerns about items in the seller?s inspection report and Manesh got the experts on the site immediately to do the checks and put us at ease. He and Tania then worked round-the-clock to make an offer ahead of all other buyers. Manesh?s relationship building skills, his precise guidance of what we needed to prepare for the best offer, and his negotiations were the reasons why we beat out multiple buyers and scored a top property from across the country - at even a lower price than expected! As if this were not enough, Manesh guided us through the complex financing process with corporate loan officers, and even negotiated on our behalf which he absolutely didn?t need to do but he again went above and beyond! We won our dream home in a hyper competitive market, saved thousands of dollars and closed on time by having Manesh and Tania on our side. We would recommend the Lakhani team any day, whether you?re buying or selling in the Greater Seattle area. Work with these folks and you?ll know why they are a winning team!

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania have been awesome in our home buying process. They have been extremely professional, helpful, and supportive throughout the entire process. It took us around 18 months to find the right home (we were on and off in the home market), but Manesh and Tania were extremely patient and empathetic to our changing needs and requirements. They were extremely proactive and responsive to any and all questions/concerns we had during this process. Manesh is extremely knowledgeable in the home closing and other processes that need to get done in order to successfully close the transaction. They personally built connections with other agents to bump us up in the long list of other buyers. They went above and beyond to help us get a good deal by negotiating on our behalf. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Manesh and Tania and we would totally recommend them for your real estate deals.

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh was referred to us by a friend during our investment property search process. Right from the day 1, Manesh was very attentive to our requirements and questions, and impressed us with his extensive real estate knowledge. Manesh & Tania immediately set us up with receiving the right leads and were very organized in filtering, shortlisting and viewing the selected options. They did all the research and due diligence upfront to eliminate options that didnt meet our needs, optimizing our time. Manesh brought extremely handy insights to the showings which made the decision making process easier for us. He went above and beyond the home buying process and provided us tip on renting out the new house. Manesh & Tania will be our go to realtor for our future real estate needs and we will highly recommend them to others. Thank you Manesh & Tania!

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania helped me with the sale of my home at the beginning of 2023 and it was A LOT of work! There were plenty of hiccups along the way (break-ins, buyer financing fail, relisting, etc.) and they handled it with aplomb. I am so grateful for all of their hard work and I have no doubt that it wouldve been a much more stressful situation if I had worked with a different team. Thank you both so much!

ZillowVERIFIED We recently had the pleasure of working with Manesh as our real estate agent, and we must say that our experience was exceptional. From the very beginning, Manesh stood out with his excellent communication skills, honesty, and extensive knowledge of the local market. His dedication and expertise made the process of buying our first house a smooth and enjoyable journey. One of the aspects that truly impressed us about Manesh was his exceptional communication skills. He was always prompt in responding to our inquiries, whether it was through phone calls, emails, or text messages. He kept us well-informed throughout the entire process, providing regular updates and guiding us through each step. This level of communication greatly alleviated any concerns we had and gave us peace of mind. Maneshs honesty was another attribute that we greatly appreciated. He was transparent about the properties we viewed, highlighting both the positive aspects and any potential drawbacks. His integrity and straightforward approach instilled a high level of trust, allowing us to make informed decisions with confidence. We truly valued his sincerity throughout the entire process. Furthermore, Maneshs in-depth knowledge of the local market was truly impressive. He was well-versed in the trends, pricing, and neighborhoods in the area. His insights and guidance were instrumental in helping us find a house that perfectly suited our needs and preferences. In the current competitive market, Manesh went above and beyond to help us navigate the challenges and strategize our offers. We were incredibly lucky to secure our dream house on our second offer, thanks to his expertise and guidance. Maneshs assistance in recommending different lenders also played a significant role in making the financing aspect much smoother. His knowledge of reputable lenders and their offerings helped us find favorable terms and secure the necessary financing for our new home. Overall, we cannot recommend Manesh highly enough. His professionalism, dedication, and expertise in the real estate industry truly set him apart. If you are in search of a real estate agent who will prioritize your needs, keep you informed, and provide honest guidance, look no further than Manesh. We are grateful for his assistance in finding our dream home, and we are confident that he will continue to excel in his future endeavors. Thank you, Manesh, for your outstanding service and for making the process of buying a home such a positive experience!! :)

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania have the qualities that make them extremely successful and effective real estate agents. We can?t say enough about their professionalism and knowledge within the industry. They have high integrity and are very conscientious and tenacious, always keeping the clients best interests in mind. They have treated us with so much professionalism and have represented us well on the purchase side of the transaction. Manesh has very keen listening skills which many realtors lack today. He took the time to understand our needs, first before showing any properties. He is very data driven and, in our case, he thoroughly researched and armed us with plenty of relevant data so we could make an informed decision. Once we identified the house that we liked, he did a fabulous job of negotiating on our behalf and got us the best deal possible. Along the way, Manesh, was extremely responsive in answering our questions, often responding immediately, even to our late-night texts (Thank you Manesh). What sets Manesh apart is that he is obsessed about making sure his clients are satisfied and happy even after the transaction is complete. Even a month after our transaction was complete, Manesh, continues to help us find the right contractors, or just provide guidance on local restaurants etc. Manesh and Tania are more than realtors for us now. They have become close family friends. We would not hesitate to use Manesh and Tania as our listing agents if we were selling a property. They are smart, knowledgeable, and most importantly, they bring in the human element to the real estate business, that is a rarity these days.

ZillowVERIFIED As a repeat customer having completed 3 transactions with Manesh, I can attest to his knowledge, professionalism, and outstanding ethical practices. He and his team expertly guided us through some very challenging transactions and worked tirelessly to ensure good outcomes. Although they were managing several intense transactions at the same time they treated us as if we were their only customers. He and his team were available any time we had a question, concern, or just needed to touch base. Even when negotiations got dicey Manesh laid out our options and helped us walk through the pros and cons. His upstanding reputation in the community is well earned and I would not hesitate to trust him again with our familys real estate needs.

ZillowVERIFIED Just the stars cant do justice to Manesh. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, friendly, approachable and helpful. We started our house search with another agent and had a very bad experience. Therefore, we researched on some Facebook groups about the best real estate agents in the greater Seattle area, that is when we found Manesh and Tania. Manesh guided us on every small step in this long and never-ending process. He has great knowledge and excellent contacts in the real estate world, which helped us overcome many obstacles in this journey. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Manesh and we had a great experience. We didnt just get a real estate agent but a great friend in a long run. We highly recommend Manesh for anything related to real estate.

ZillowVERIFIED I came across Manesh through FB groups and noticed that consistently he was offering good solid advice to home buyers. I also noticed that he was doing a lot of volume (buyers agent or as sellers agent) per month and was very active on the East side of Seattle. My wife and I decided to engage him and we were really happy that he was very helpful, professional and put us at ease since we were first time home buyers in a sellers market like Seattle. Manesh was very prompt with arranging appointments to see houses. He also has a great sense of humor and would share a lot of real estate anecdotes and each of them has an important lesson to be learnt. While we would get distracted by the eye candy stuff that a house might offer (Fully remodeled, staged with expensive furniture etc.,) Manesh would look for defects around the house and mention them to us. He would also take further steps in reviewing all information about a house and point out if there were any issues. For instance, one of the houses we looked was very beautiful but was not connected to the sewer system properly. One of the main things I learnt very quickly is that finding a good house that checks most boxes is not the difficult part but winning the offer is the most essential. This is where Manesh shines the best as he is an excellent negotiator. We got our first home at Listing price!!! Not a dollar more. We saved almost $40K This is unheard of in Seattle. Maneshs wife Tania is very meticulous when it comes to doing comps. In all the houses we looked so far, she would come up with a pretty accurate fair price on what the house was worth. Both of them make an awesome combination with their combined years of experience as realtors. If you are looking for a realtor and you want someone who will truly work on your behalf, your search should stop right here! Look no further.

ZillowVERIFIED As a first time home buyers, its not only important to know about buying process but also to be strategic in bidding for the interested home in the current tough market. Working with Manesh was phenomenal! He was very efficient, quick in responding to the questions and concerns and great networking skills! He is competitive in evaluating the homes matching our preferences. He understands your goals and limitations. While touring the houses, he guided us with valuable and relevant inputs about the house, market and the best price to bid on it. This made us understand a lot about home buying process and financials. We definitely recommend him if you want to get a good deal in a limited time frame and also well never miss a chance to work with him.

He was with us at every open house we visited. He has a great strategy and he made our first bid selected. Once we were in contract, he followed up with the Title Company, Lender and the Seller Agent etc. He made the closing possible earlier than expected. He is the best realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh is a fantastic realtor. He was always there to help us, even if it was during odd hours. He made it very easy for us to find our new house. This entire home-buying process went smoothly and without a hitch because of his expertise and knowledge of the real estate market. Im delighted we were able to collaborate with him. Manesh is someone I would strongly suggest to anyone looking to purchase their ideal home.

ZillowVERIFIED We are new to Seattle area and was clueless on location in our house search and had a lot of filters to consider (Vastu, facing, budget etc). Manesh was instrumental, extremely patient and knowledgeable to advise what?s best for our family. Manesh traveled with us to every nook and corner of the city in our house-hunt. Best part is his family as a team who well understand our needs and could quickly pull in all required info as you hop from home to home. He and team are available, reliable, quick, efficient and amicable - all that you need in a realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED We were first time home buyers in this crazy market and I can confidently say that the only reason we secured our dream house was because we were working with Manesh. Im very confident in this fact because we had another agent that we were working with who was referred to us by a friend that we felt wasnt a good fit. Well, it was a night and day difference when we started working with Manesh. Our prior agent was very experienced (about 20-30 years of experience) but Manesh is really on a different level and we knew we made the right decision from the first home we toured with him. So what was it like working with this consummate professional? 1) PROFESSIONALISM: First of all, Manesh closely adhered to his professional duty to act as our representative and to protect our interests as his clients. This is absolutely #1 and Manesh saved us from financial ruin TWO times during our search. As first time home buyers, we were in an extremely vulnerable position and Manesh protected us from ourselves and unscrupulous sellers looking to take advantage of buyers. He correctly assessed the risks and counseled us to make offers that protected us--in both incidents he put in the protections needed in our offer while remaining competitive. While we could have won those two houses but after inspections they turned out to be bad deals. Because of the protections he put in we were able to cancel the deals and move on with our search without losing our earnest money or taking any financial losses. Ultimately, he was able to save us a SIGNIFICANT amount of money on our winning offer because he correctly assessed the buyers position, and knew that we had some leverage we could exercise to push the deal in our favor. We are FOREVER GRATEFUL to Manesh for his professionalism and staying true to his ethical obligations as a Realtor. 2) COMMUNICATIONS: Manesh is an excellent communicator--one of the BEST Ive ever had to opportunity to work with. His efficiency in communication is matched with a charismatic touch that really makes the whole process feel effortless. We ALWAYS felt like we knew what was going on in the process and it left us free to worry about our side of the deal. I cannot emphasize enough how much this helped us in our home search and buying experience. Clear, concise, and ACCURATE communication--we always felt like Manesh was in the loop and he often corrected our own mistakes or inaccuracies. We never felt like we had to second guess Manesh, although as responsible buyers we always did our best to fulfill our obligations to verify and do our due diligence. Ultimately, we made the decisions but Manesh helped ensure 3) INDUSTRY AND MARKET KNOWLEDGE: Manesh knows the Seattle/Eastside and surrounding areas very well, and he isnt shy about sharing his perspective about a property. I loved this about Manesh--hes straight forward and will tell you the good, bad, and ugly about the property. He had a lot of insights and I enjoyed these interactions with him. I really felt like I was working with one of my expert colleagues at the office on a project together. Manesh brought his experience and knowledge, and I did my part of the project defining the goals and desired parameters. My real estate knowledge grew as I worked with Manesh and we could have more and more sophisticated conversations over the course of our search--as I my knowledge grew, Manesh was always there to offer more. Finally, I really feel like I became friends with Manesh through this process. The process was pretty stressful because of the market conditions and Manesh saw us through the emotional highs and lows. He was supportive and helped anchor us to reality throughout the search. Its really hard not to like Manesh! We looked forward to our home tours because we liked being around him--it really helped eased some of the stress of our home search. So after we closed on the house we were a little sad because we became so used to our regular check-ins and communications with Manesh ??. Thank you so much Manesh!!! We miss you!

ZillowVERIFIED We worked with Manesh and Tania buying our dream home. Finding the house was totally unexpected, so to say we couldn?t have done it without their expertise is an understatement. They assisted with locating inspectors, dealing with our lender (which was a job in its own) and keeping a good working relationship with the other realtor/seller which assisted us with the purchase. They always responded to texts/calls, made me feel comfortable to reach out with any questions/concerns and always had our best interest. My husband and I felt so grateful to have them on our side through the whole process and we couldn?t have done it without them! If you want a team that really goes 110% from start to finish this is the realtor for you! Thank you for everything!!!

ZillowVERIFIED There are many good real estate agents, but few of the quality that Manesh offers. He knows the Seattle area well and not only steered me to something I would not have thought of on my own, but walked with me every step of the way. I recall when he suggested that I hire a private home inspector for my new build home and I pushed back. He carefully and kindly encouraged me to do this. I decided to hire the home inspector and with the inspectors findings, received a home in so much better shape! Manesh is a good communicator with a deep level of caring and is an effective negotiator. I had a great experience and I believe you will too!

ZillowVERIFIED We had a great experience with Manesh. He helped us to find a great house in a time in Lynnwood. This was my first time buying a home, and Manesh?s expertise and advice was invaluable. He was very patient and helpful, and maintained great communication throughout the entire process.

ZillowVERIFIED Manesh and Tania helped us secure a perfect house in Lynnwood, WA. Starting from Day 1, they were meticulous in understanding our requirements and always provided hand-picked listings customized to our needs. They would do a thorough research of the market and provide their unbiased opinion about the listings and would patiently answer all our questions even if they were silly. Best of all, we never felt being rushed into decision making. As the market is upbeat during Covid, we were tempted to over bid occasionally, but their honest feedback helped restraining us to go beyond the right price. My wife and I would highly recommend their services to any of your real estate needs. Looking forward to working with them again in the future !!
