View All ListingsIt was a pleasure, working with Pete! Having moved out of state, before we listed the home, we had to make sure we had the RIGHT realtor. Pete was on top of it! With his 18 years of experience, he has built a top notch team of vendors to assist with anything that pops up! From House cleaners, carpet cleaners, landscaping, roofing, engineering, handyman services, junk removal, pre-inspections. Who could ask for more?!!! His knowledge of the surrounding neighborhoods was quite impressive. This was very helpful in determining a real listing price, as compared to chasing the market. I can't say enough about working with an experienced realtor at a reputable agency. The results speak for themselves!
Pete Keating and his group with John L. Scott are fantastic. Their attention to detail, communication and ability to handle chaotic situations is outstanding. Would not have had anyone else handle the selling of our home and our purchase of another. Fred and Barbara Brazil
Pete worked well with me to list and sell our home. He was easily reachable and responded to all the questions and input I had. I appreciate his help and would recommend him to others that are wanting to sell their homes
Pete was always friendly and professional. He is very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods he represents and was especially helpful navigating the sale of our townhouse in a challenging market. It would be a pleasure to work with Pete again.
Pete and Nicole are the team you want to sell your home. Everything they do is top of the line. From the research they perform to either price your home or help you know where to buy, to coaching you through the process and making the complexity of closing as smooth as possible, they don't miss a thing. They go way beyond just the home transaction, they make you feel at home. I can't say enough of what an incredible experience it was working with them. They know their stuff and they have your back. They are the team you want to work with. Thanks for everything Pete and Nicole!
Let me begin with a brief background. We moved to the area from the east coast to be near family and take part in the birth and growth of our grandchildren. To set ourselves up, we rented an apartment in Snohomish to buy time to explore the area, understand the market and find the best place possible for the best possible aEURoegrandparentingaEUR?. We spent the better part of a year exploring, talking to contacts and outlining what we needed in a new home. We also, after a rough experience in the past, wanted a realtor steeped in the area and cut from a solid professional cloth. In short, we were highly focused and highly selective buyers. After months of study and research, we settled on Pete Keating as our realtor. This is exactly why we did the work. Pete took all of our desires and constraints into consideration and dug for homes that met our numerous needs. In the end, we settled on a home just outside our aEURoeperfectaEUR? neighborhood but it was the only one we have seen in a year that met our critical priorities. Indeed, its a bit of a unicorn home, but we are in it now and quite pleased. Out first Christmas was wonderful and we are very thankful Pete was our realtor. If you are looking for someone to find your next, perfect home, be assured, Pete will do whatever is necessary to find you a wonderful match. Thank you!
Thank you Pete Keating from John L Scott, Snohomish for the awesome work. From start to finish you exceeded my expectations. I'm very thankful for your years of experience, time, and help with this major event in my life. Pete had my home sold in 3 days! I love this guy! Brian Marysville, Wa.
Great experience, great people. Pete was our original agent when purchasing in 2017 and was our clear choice for selling in 2024. Helpful through the entire process. Can't say enough good things.
Pete is amazing, total professional who cares about the details. He made my selling experience enjoyable during a normally stressful time. Highly recommend if you are wanting someone to sell your home who cares about you and your interests.
Peter went above and beyond to help prepare and sell my home. He made sure my home was cleaned, well staged, and optimized for being marketed for top prices. He gave me tips to best prepare my home, and came during the weekends to help me finalize the home setup. During the sale process he advocated for my best interests and made the selling process as smooth as possible. Peter is absolutely amazing and I would recommend him any day.
We were relocating back to Washington state, but the Snohomish area was new to us and we were beyond lucky to have been connected with Pete. His responsiveness from the start and throughout the process was amazing especially when we were not local throughout the process. We scheduled two trips to WA for neighborhood and house tours and he maximized the limited time we had to look in person. He not only listened to us, but heard what we wanted. He counseled when asked, and genuinely makes you feel like you're working with a friend. Pete took the initiative to check out a house we saw online, FaceTiming when he got there to give us the tour. Since he knew what was important to us in our house he made sure to highlight those areas and then some. We ended up purchasing the home and saw it in person for the first time a few days before we moved in. This truly speaks to how well he listened to us. I can't say enough good things about working with Pete and Nicole who is equally responsive and on top of things. They are a great pair and I highly recommend working with them.
My wife and I are new to the state of WA and were referred to Pete Keating by a friend from work. Pete has far exceeded our expectations in several areas...He was extremely friendly, patient and knowledgeable, and also provided excellent counsel from the beginning of our interactions and of course found us the home of our dreams for about $100,000 BELOW our budget...If that's not enough, after we were already living in the home for 90 days, we took a trip out of the state and failed to shut off our water pipes in freezing weather. Due to our negligence, an outside pipe popped off which we found upon returning. We called Pete for help, and what did he do? He dropped what he was doing, drove straight to our new home in the middle of the day to look at the damage and immediately provided a referral that had our problem fixed within the hour.Pete works with the utmost professionalism and integrity not only throughout the decision and purchasing process, but more importantly has helped us to have the absolute best ownership experience now that we live here. What a blessing to have worked with this guy!!!
Pete is extremely professional and responsive. Successfully and adeptly navigated a dual agency situation. Felt very comfortable the whole time. Absolutely the best agent we have worked with in a long time.
Hard to imagine that writing a 5-star review could be so difficult but there are so many good things I could say about my experience with Pete and his team its a challenge knowing where to start. For anyone reading this that values relationships and wants a realtor that truly works for you and your satisfaction Id say pick up the phone and give Pete a call. I know for many of us cost is a major factor in determining which platform, agency or agent we choose to do business with and all I can really say is that you get what you pay for. Pete went above and beyond helping me navigate the process of selling my home, there were so many things I didnt have time to address that he seamlessly coordinated on my behalf making the process easy and stress free.
Pete & Nicole were wonderful to work with! Pete was honest, helpful and quick to view homes and send us videos since we were moving from out of state and weren't familiar with the area or able to visit that much. After only a month or so of searching we found exactly what we were looking for. They were both very responsive and just fun to work with! We highly recommend Pete for your real estate needs!
Pete is an awesome agent! Hes always there for his clients. I highly recommend him to help with your buying and selling needs. Pete helped us buy in Cedar Park, we love the neighborhood. Petes the best!
Kept his promises, went far and beyond to assist us..found us help for removal of an old boat, kept us informed throughout the process, got us greater than asking price, friendly, all around charming guy!
We have known Pete for years and when it was time to sell our home and look for our forever home we knew Pete was the Realtor for us! With his help our home sold and had an AMAZING offer in 4 hours after listing and we were able to get our forever home!! Pete went above and beyond every step of the way!! We will be recommending Pete to everyone we know! Thank you Pete for helping us!!! You are one of the BEST!!!!Love, The Young Family

Pete and Nicole are the team to get things done. If you are looking to buy or sell a home, you want them representing you. They listen to your needs and make every effort to accommodate. They make you feel like you are their only client when they have many.
Weve worked with Pete for years now both buying and selling and will only work with him. Hes great, very knowledgeable, always professional and just a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend contacting him for any real estate needs.

Pete was really personable and helpful throughout my first home selling experience. Pete helped me work through paperwork, jargon and just making sure the process was going as smooth as possible. Even taking care of small things along the way like carpet cleaning and trash removal. I would highly recommend Pete to everyone if you are looking for a no nonsense, reliable, and professional realtor he is your guy!
Words can't explain my gratitude for Pete and his team. I had a unique situation and had the challenge of selling my home while living in another state. I hired an agent prior to hiring Pete, although the previous agent gave his greatest effort he was unable to sell our home and my house was on the market for 7 months agonizing months. I only had 2 pretty bleak offers and I was feeling seriously overwhelmed financially and emotionally. I even faced foreclosure because I was paying two mortgages. I finally had to let my other agent go and was truly blessed to be connected with Pete. After meeting with him I felt a glimpse of hope. He had a solid action plan to sell my house. Selling my house was a very emotional experience for me and he was the greatest support. I had no money to make changes to meet the demands of buyers and Pete found a way without me having to beg and borrow family for money to make things happen. I am truly grateful for how Pete turned things around and sold my house within 2 days from listing and closed in less than 30 days.He is the epitome of professional as well as humble, he's solution-orientedaEUR"every challenge we faced he dealt with it with ease. If I still lived in Seattle, Pete would become my lifetime agent that I would refer to all my family and friends.
Pete's services were awesome. We are very pleased with everything Pete helped us with, this includes providing a courtesy van and a trailer to take a lot of stuff to the transfer station during the pandemic related closure of businesses. Pete also helped us with the final cleaning of our house as we ran out of time due to relocation schedule. He did a great job keeping us posted throughout the whole process. Pete was very friendly and professional at the same time. We were extremely happy we got an offer within two days of posting the house on the market. We sincerely appreciate Pete's help very much.
In trying times, Pete got our house sold, just before significant changes to the real estate industry took affect.There were several ways he stepped up and handled unorthodox situations that allowed everything to move and close on time despite social distancing and outside regulation.
As a first time 'senior' home buyer, I was nervous, not knowing what to expect. Pete was recommended by an award winning agent in Hawaii who vetted several agents in the Snohomish County area. Pete did much hand-holding and carefully listened to my "wish list". 2 hours and 3 houses later, I had selected the home I wanted with all the features I'd asked for, and within less than 48 hours I had my home at a fair price. Not only is Pete responsive, hardworking, knowledgeable and a delight to work with, he has the best contacts in the business. The mortgage company Pete recommended was fantastic, as was the inspector. Pete was present for the inspection and re-inspection, ALWAYS looking out for my best interests. He arranged for the best garage door guy to repair the garage door, the best landscapers to tidy up the trees and remove an unsafe play structure, and even had someone come clean the house before I moved in, all at no cost to me. Who does THAT??Pete has an enviable Rolodex of contacts, all, like Pete, honest and responsive. I have contacted Pete several times, post purchase, to ask if he knows "someone who can", and Pete never disappoints.Nicole, Pete's 'gal Friday', could also be counted on answer questions immediately if Pete was not available and was up to date on my file and where I was in the process.I will forever be in Pete's debt for efficiently and professionally walking me thru the process. I felt very cared for, and that was something I did not expect at all. As I have later said, buying a house is easy, if someone else does the work. Pete and his team was that "someone else".There is no rating high enough for Pete and anyone would be lucky and smart to work with him.
Pete found us our first home, and he helped us with our 2nd home, our dream home!!!! I highly recommend Pete! An honest, hard working individual. He came through and promised to have us closed in a week and he made good on it! It was a pleasure to work with Pete again, very responsive, he put us first considering how busy he is in Seattle's market; he knows exactly what he's doing. My family and I couldn't thank him enough!!
We had been looking and putting in offers without luck for 2 years. Pete helped us get our home. He was knowledgeable, responsive and had our benefit in mind during the entire process.
Pet was very professional and to the point. He listened to the aspects of the home we were looking for and did not waste time or try and push us into anything that did not perfectly fit into our needs. Pete has surrounded himself with a great team of professional such as Connie Wilson with Fairway Mortgage (fastest closing I have ever undertaken), and Keven Swartz, True North Inspections. (highly impressed).Pete was a pleasure to work with and we look forward to working with him in the near future. I highly recommend Pete to anyone looking for real estate!!!!
Pete Keating was exceptional. He was very thorough in providing comparisons for our property along with recommendations for improvements to allow us to be competitive and profitable in a surging market. We followed his recommendations and our house sold within 3 weeks. Prior to the listing of the house there were some landscaping and outside maintenance needs. All the contractors we contacted on our own were completely booked out. We contacted Pete with our concern that we would not be ready to list and he provided us with contractors reasonably priced to complete the job.Truly amazing!!! I highly recommend Pete Keating and look forward to working with him in the future for any and all our real estate needs.
Pete Keating did a fantastic job. His work made the difference in not just selling the property but in getting over list price. We had 5 offers over list price in the first 3 days that it went on the market.
I would recommend Pete Keating with my highest recommendation to my friends and family. In my experience, most real estate agents do exactly as you expect... They work on their schedule, they add little value, and most often leave you feeling unsatisfied. I am pleased to say Pete has set a new standard for what I expect of an agent. He's professional, hard working, and has a genuine love of what he does. From the moment we hired Pete to sell our home he was on the job. He quickly took high-quality HD photos of our home, made an amazing listing, and the first weekend he held an open house. Not suprising by the end of the weekend, we had multiple offers and Pete helped us select the best offer to move forward. We had our home sold within 2 days and Pete helped us get $25k more than "the best agent in Seattle" had told us to expect. Needless to say we were nothing short of grateful for Pete's expertise and dedication to selling our home. The best advice I can give after our experience with Pete is, hire him.... It will be the best decision you can make in selling your home. Thank you Pete! Sincerely, Marcus Saylor
Pete is the best agent that we've ever met. He answered any and all questions we had about the house we were interested in and promptly sent us pictures related to the items that we had concerns about during the inspection. For example, there was a faucet in the basement that the inspector did not know how to turn on and indicated that it was broken during the inspection process. We thought that there was a major plumbing issue with the house so we contacted Pete and expressed our concern. Pete immediately came to the house, figured out how to turn it on, took pictures, and sent them to us within a few hours after we contacted him. Not only did the pictures help to ease our concerns about the plumbing of the house, but he also helped the buying process go along very smoothly. We also contacted him with several questions about the house during our inspection process. He answered them all. For the questions that he needed further clarifications, he contacted the sellers and promptly provided us the answers.In addition, he is very knowledgeable in home improvement matters and provided us several great suggestions to help improve the house. He has helped us and the sellers make the entire buying/selling process move along smoothly throughout the negotiation process. He also promised to fix a broken window after we purchased the house. He followed through and contacted us to confirm the date that he scheduled the window company to fix the window. Buying a house can be a very stressful process. Its very important to have a great agent working alongside with us. Pete did an excellent job. It has been a pleasant experience working with him. Pete is prompt, professional, reliable, and gets the job done. In the future, we would definitely ask Pete to be our agent for buying and selling related matters.
First time home buyers. Found the house that was exactly what we were looking for. One call to Pete, met us the next day, and a month later, we are moving in to our house. Pete's knowledge, expertise, and great personality made everything go quickly and we are grateful he was the perfect realtor for us.Pete is the man!!!
I highly recommend Pete Keating for your home buying and selling needs. My husband and I met Pete while viewing another home that he was the listing agent for. We immediately connected with him and decided to have him as our agent in our search to buy a home. He was personable and responsive aEUR" dropping everything to make sure we could see a home as soon as possible, and making sure he returned our calls quickly. But most of all Pete was effective, making sure our needs were met and we found the best possible home within our price range. The experience couldnt have gone much better, and Pete was a major reason. We give him our highest recommendation.
Pete is just the guy we were looking for when we were looking for someone to help us purchase our first home. He was clear about the process, and when we had questions or requests he didn't make us feel as though we were inconveniencing him. We also wanted someone who would be straight with us, we like sweets but we don't like someone to sugar coat or fluff things especially when it comes to the process of buying a home. Very glad we found him.
Pete was a pleasure to work with. He took his time explaining each step untill we were comfortable. During our interactions he continually demonstrated a deep understanding of the entire process. We especially appreciated how quickly he responded to our emails, calls, and texts. As a first time home buyer we had a ton of questions, and Pete either had the answer or found it quickly. Overall I couldn't be happier with Pete and the service he provided us throughout the process.
Pete Keating has integrity, commitment, and a great heart, which are qualities I never expected to find in a realtor. He was honest and extremely helpful when it came down to getting the nitty gritty done to prepare the place for showings and get the highest bid for my place during a time when the market was slowing down. Being fairly aware to the real estate market, I always felt comfortable asking him questions and trusted that he would steer me right. And that he did, in spades! Thank you Pete!
Pete was the only one that responded to us when we wanted to view a condo and he did it within 30 minutes of us sending a request! He always has a constant, open form of communication and will always be willing to answer any questions or concerns, especially from us newbies. He is very technologically savvy and makes sure that he does his research so that you receive the best possible information. We have yet to hear back from other Realtors but thankfully we had Pete who was able to find us a home that we fell in love with.
From past, poor experiences, I do not hold Real Estate Agents in high esteem, but if there were more agents like Pete I'd be inclined to change my mind. He's a good agent, buying or selling, quick to respond, knowledgeable, stays on top of the process and communicates the steps.He understands that you want a professional to handle the transaction and provides that level of service.
I would highly recommend utilizing Pete Keating's services for both the purchase and sale of your home. Excellent at keeping the lines of communication between the buyer and seller amicable. Very good at updating progress of the closing process. Did multiple open houses as promised. Highly motivated agent/brooker.
I have bought and sold homes before. This was by far the most pleasant experience yet. Pete went above and beyond the call of duty! He helped me with repairs to my home and hired professionals when needed. He was a calming voice in what can be a crazy time. I will definitely work with Pete again, and highly recommend him to you!

Pete did a wonderful job and was able to find us exactly what we wanted. This was our first home purchase, and therefore we really appreciated Pete's input and advice while walking us through the whole process.
Pete was very helpful with the sale of our house. Pete had all of the best marketing tools to let the world know our house was for sale. He had clients ready to look at it the minute we listed it and he sold it first day of listing. He went to bet for us during the closing process to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and reliable and has great negotiation skills. If you want your house sold, then contact Pete and he will get your house sold. We highly recommend him.
Pete has done a great job in helping us to buy our draeam house. We had to sell our house and then buy the new house in a short period of time. He understands the market and is honest and creative. He is the best among all the agnets we have used over the years. I would not hesitate to recomend him to my friends.
Pete is an EXCELLENT agent! He provided helpful insights to what he thought the market would yield via a Customer Market Analysis report.His guidance about small projects prior to listing to make our home more appealing to buyers proved to be PRICELESS- we received multiple offers in just days.We would recommend Pete to anyone looking for a smooth realestate transaction.
Pete was the selling agent for the short sale of our home due to divorce. He was professional, knowledgeable and patient over the course of the considerable time it took to complete the sale. He was a skillful negotiator with both a first and second mortgage holder and kept us as his clients fully informed through every step of the process.
