Cannot say enough about a good realtor cause I have met the other kind. Appreciate his service as unique! Ask for the best, Give him a call!

I knew what I wanted, but with most of them all I was able to get was mumbo-jumbo and double-talk. Chris Hill was clear, concise, to the point, and explained exactly what he could offer in terms that I could understand and in terms that were important to me. It took several weeks to close because of some technical issues, but the final deal was worth the wait. My thanks go out to Chris and the team at West Capital Lending.

We couldn't be happier with our Lake & Co. realtor, Aune Tietz. She's a "seasoned veteran" with…read morearound 20 years in the biz. From our initial meeting to discuss what we wanted to buy, to the final meeting to pick up the keys, Aune was always available to show properties, answer questions and to offer very sound advice. During the often complicated process she coached us on how to submit our offer and, even in this hot market, we were able to beat an all cash bid! Aside from knowing all the ins and outs, Aune is super personable and we felt a genuine excitement from her. It's clear she really enjoys helping people, with what is so much more than just a simple purchase, its emotional and can be very stressful. Aune helped make this whole experience fun, and we feel lucky to have had her on our team. J & A Frank

Samantha Lamb is the GREATEST!…read more TLDR: She's sold THREE homes for me over the last decade and I wouldn't use anyone else, ever!! Especially in today's crazy market, you need an EXPERT who can navigate changing conditions as a pro! I have heard a couple of horror stories recently about people selling homes in this crazy competitive market where realtors really let them down. Tens of thousands were left on the table because of inexperience, lack of negotiation skills and playing it too safe. It made me realize I have failed lately to shout from the rooftops about my FAVORITE REALTOR -- Samantha Lamb w/Lake & Co.!!! I wish I'd done this sooner. I know if they had found her first, they wouldn't have ended up with strangers who didn't truly care about them! Today I'm going to make that right! First, here's why you should care about my opinion. Before I founded Evolve180 Weight Loss, I owned a mortgage brokerage and worked directly and indirectly with hundreds of agents over the years. Sam was the best realtor I ever worked with because of her integrity, professionalism and favorable negotiation skills on behalf of clients. She quickly became the ONLY realtor I felt confident referring my Seattle/Eastside clients to, and they all returned rave reviews. She works ONLY by referral and doesn't advertise. She's kind of like the speakeasy version of a real estate agent... you have to know someone who knows about her to find her. Her approach is to do such a good job for her clients that they all want to send their friends and family to her. Everyone starts out with trust. And her relationships with clients span many years - as has been the case with me. Out of the hundreds of agents I knew at the time, I Samantha Lamb to list all three of the properties I sold in the last decade. She exceeded my expectations in all cases. Her ability to navigate complex, changing market conditions was evident each time. I sold in 2011, 2014 and 2019 - all very different markets. Her advice was well-researched and strategic each time, and each transaction turned out better than I'd hoped - partly because she set real expectations, then did her utmost to exceed them. She includes complimentary professional staging and many other conveniences that make the process easy. Her advice throughout each transaction was like gold - especially when things became hard (i.e. post-inspection haggling during a buyer's market). I wish I'd been more proactive about sharing Samantha with my network. Professionals this stellar deserve recognition. Plus, in a time when 5-star reviews can be purchased in bulk, I thought it would be nice to add my real voice to support a REAL LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS PERSON doing good in the world. Consider giving her a call or passing her along to friends or family who could use good real estate advice in times like these. Pics attached are of the house she sold for me in Kirkland in 2014!

Two years ago he walked me through refinancing, knocked a full point off my rate, laid out every number crystal clear, and made the whole thing painless. Saved me serious cash without any surprises. Then this year he popped back up, had spotted an even better deal, another point drop, and didn't just wait for me to ask. He proactively hunted it down, explained why it made sense, and handled everything again. No sales pitch, no hidden fees, just real savings when it actually mattered. He's not out to nickel-and-dime; he's looking for the big wins that actually move the needle. Feels like he's working for me, not the bank. If you want someone who'll keep an eye out for you without the hassle, Mike's your guy.

Keith's team got my mortgage refinance finished in less than a month during the pandemic when the first bank failed to get it done in 6 months... I tried refinancing with a promotional offer during the pandemic. It was a disaster. The 1st appraisal had at least a 3 month wait but failed because the appraiser didn't feel experienced enough. I waited another 3 months for the "expert" appointment and he couldn't complete the appraisal either - The expert spent the entire time using the restroom and I had to clean it after... After 6 months with the first company and missing out on the lowest interest rates, Keith's team got it done in under a month!

Let me begin by saying Danny is the absolute best!! This was our very first home buying experience…read moreand Danny gave us comfort and confidence from start to finish! Danny was very personable and gave his professional advice with our best interests at the forefront at all times. We never felt pressured to make a decision or to increase our budget. His integrity to fully disclose information to protect us as buyers went along way in our trust with Danny. He was transparent between our options and extremely knowledgeable. The pros and cons were explained specific to our short and long term plans for our home so we could make the best decision for us. Along with his expertise, his availability and responsiveness reassured me that he's the best in the business! Whenever we gave him a call, he would actually pick up! That's so rare in today's age of texting. If he couldn't pick up, he would text us back immediately that he would call us right back - and would actually follow through! It made it really feel like we were his only customer and put to rest any concerns we had because he always had an answer for us. As far as our rates, the man is a magician! We never imagined we would be homeowners, let alone be approved for as much as we did at such a great interest rate! He helped us plan short and long term financial strategies with the loan before making any decision so we are extremely confident and feel in control of our mortgage. Danny is a true professional and expert in providing an exceptional customer experience. His skill set, work ethic, and genuine care for his customers separates Danny from his peers. Danny turned our dreams into reality and we have nothing but GREAT things to say!! He's gained customers for life, and I've already referred him to friends and family who have had even a sliver of interest in buying a home. Our curiosity turned us into homeowners within just a few months, and that can be true for any of them as well! All it takes is one call, email, or text and you could very well be on to getting a home of your own! THANK YOU DANNY!!!!
