I just wanted to establish a relationship with a realtor in case we did see something we liked. Jenni was perfectly fine with that and we had an excellent chat, establishing what we were looking for and promising to keep her eye out. As it happened, a property that we had been interested in returned to the market two days later and I reached out to her to ask for a video walkthrough. She was able to do that quickly enough for me to see it before we were out of contact for the weekend, which let us make arrangements as soon as we got home to come up and see the house in person that next week. When we had questions about the house, she went above and beyond to get us answers, including tracking down information the seller's agent should have provided (but hadn't!). Once we put in the offer, she made getting through the inspection process easy, especially for someone coordinating it from out of state. She was able to get estimates so we could ask for a reasonable amount of credit on the sale and all of the folks she has recommended have been top notch. We were able to close early in a large part because of her work and she made the whole experience smooth and easy (or at least as easy and stress-free as buying a house from two states away can be!). We're very excited to move up to Bellingham and start the next chapter of our lives and it wouldn't have been possible without Jenni.

Everything really went smoothly because of her communication and hard work.

From our first meeting to the day we finally procured the keys to our new house, Tracie was absolutely amazing. There are quite a few traits that stuck out to us about her: 1. She is tireless worker. She answered our texts, e-mails, and phone calls whenever we had them. She may have other clients, but you won't know it. We always felt like we were here one, and only clients. 2. Her knowledge if the home buying process is second to none. It was reassuring knowing that she would never let us get into a bad situation when it came to writing offers and/or reviewing counter offers. 3. Tracie understood our budget and did not let us wander from it. She was very conscious of only showing homes that not only meet our needs, but arrived within our budget. And the best part about working with Tracie? Her upbeat and can do attitude! We were under a serious time constraint to find a place to live. Even as our deadline loomed over us, she was still optimistic that we would not only find a house, but we wouldn't settle. That went a long ways in helping the confidence of my wife and I. This sounds so cliche, but not only did we find our realtor for any of our future needs, but I'd like to think we found a friend as well. Thanks Tracie!

GRANT LA MOTHE - A TESTIMONIAL…read more My wife and I recently placed our home on the market with Grant. It had been years since we'd sold any property, so we were more than a little naïve about what we were attempting to do. Grant is the consummate professional. He has been in the real estate business for many years and was so wise and helpful. First, he walked us through the financial aspects of a contract with him. He explained his responsibilities as well as our rights. For us, signing contracts can be a frightening experience because we're not lawyers. Our trust in Grant was NOT misplaced by any means. Grant gave us sage advice on how to stage our property - removing clutter, rearranging furniture to maximize openness and even personally helped with some of the outdoor landscaping chores to enhance street appeal. He has held open houses here and the many, many signs, balloons, on-line advertising and news media notices, as well as his "treats" for viewers have all brought dozens and dozens of folks through our home. It actually looks like a party or event is going on. Our correct price point -thanks to Grant's tutelage and research - is relatively high for this area. But it's correct. And the way this is all going we are most confident we will sell our home soon. He is, and has been, honest, forthright and hard-working on our behalf. I can safely say that you can have complete confidence in your business relationship and real estate dealings with Mr. La Mothe. -Steven and Shelley Bolton, Bellingham, Washington
