I worked with Geoff to buy my first home in Seattle. Geoff wasn't fazed by my desire for a longer slower search. While searching for the right home Geoff was candid and informative but also made me feel empowered to make the decision. He helped me understand the different aspects of each property we looked at and find the right home for me. Geoff ensured the buying and closing process went smoothly and connected me with people to help with the post-move-in work of making the house a home. Highly recommend Geoff to anyone looking for a realtor. read more

Geoff was awesome to work with. As a first time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions, and he made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. He was always available, patient, and truly had my best interests in mind. His suggestions made it possible to get the place I wanted even with multiple offers. read more

We've gone through the home buying process before, but working with Geoff still taught us so much. It's clear he's incredibly knowledgeable and experienced--his guidance was invaluable at every step. He helped us understand how to structure a strong, competitive offer and shared insights during walkthroughs that we wouldn't have caught on our own. During the final walk-through, Geoff took care of all the key checks so we could feel confident everything was in working order. He also worked seamlessly with our lender, which created a strong, coordinated team. Thanks to their efforts, our offer was accepted and we closed quickly on our dream home--couldn't ask for more. Geoff made the entire process smooth, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. Highly recommend! read more

Geoff was our realtor for our first home purchase earlier this year. Over two months of house shopping, Geoff was consistently accessible, responsive, and thorough. I asked Geoff many, many questions on the houses we saw online, houses we toured, and the process of buying a home - and Geoff was generous with all of his responses. Any question that he did not have an immediate answer to, he looked into and followed up on with expediency and diligence. He was a professional through and through. I highly recommend Geoff. read more

I'm extremely enthusiastic and happy to recommend Geoff Hill as a realtor in Seattle. He helped our family so much with the sale of our family house -- it required a lot of work beyond the ordinary and we couldn't have done it without him. During the time that we worked together, Geoff was extremely hard working, very talented, very smart, and an excellent and clear communicator. He paid close attention to the job to make sure everything went smoothly and well, and treated everyone involved with kindness and respect. I'm very grateful to have worked with you, Geoff. Thank you! read more

My husband and I started working with Geoff about seven years ago when we first started thinking about buying a house. He spent over two years helping us get to know the Seattle market before we bought our first house in April 2020. He was patient and helpful through the whole process, and his expertise became essential when we were navigating a purchase during the uncertainty of the early Covid months. Five years (and a several different false starts and almost purchases) later, Geoff helped us close on our new home last month. Our experience the second time around was no different than the first. Geoff is extremely responsive to questions, available at short notice for tours, has excellent judgement, and isn't afraid to give you his informed opinion. He also has a sense of humor, is enjoyable to work with, and clearly cares about his work and each of his clients. We couldn't be happier with the results of Geoff's work! read more

Working with Geoff was fantastic! He really listened to what I was looking for in a house, and kept being a positive, encouraging force when the house hunt took much longer than I expected, which eventually led to me landing a house that wonderfully fit what I was looking for! He was super knowledgeable and insightful during the process, and helpful beyond the closing process in helping me find great people for further work on the house. I would absolutely work with him again if I'm ever house-hunting in the Seattle area, and would recommend him to anyone else! read more

Selling my condo was a kind of journey, or perhaps one could see it as a video game. In either case, Working with Geoff was an exceptional experience. He is extremely knowledgeable and easy to communicate with--always up front providing all the options along the way. He was willing to go the full nine yards throughout the process. As an example, while I was in Europe he would stop by my place every couple of weeks to water the plants. You might notice that we share the same last name--just a coincidence, no nepotism involved : ) No reason to trouble yourself looking for the right realtor--Simply put, he's the best. read more

My wife and I were referred to Geoff from our daughter and her fiancée who he helped buy their first home. We were living in Los Angeles at that time. It was reassuring when we learned of the advice Geoff was giving them that led to their eventual home purchase. Their experience with Geoff was great and we all love the home they purchased with his help. We moved to Seattle from Los Angeles last summer and decided to rent before buying as we knew little about any of the neighborhoods. Recently retired, we also were not clear on our goals or what we were looking for. We looked at everything from land for us to build a home on to a house with an ADU and most everything in between. We were all over the map in every respect including our budget. Geoff always immediately helped us seriously consider our many different scenarios when we wanted his help. He also knew (without being told) how to give us the time we needed to simply explore on our own between considering specific options. We never felt pressure nor did we ever feel as though we were being handled. At all times it was clear to us that Geoff was focused exclusively on meeting our goals and making sure we understood the downsides of properties we considered buying. He would ask us questions like were we sure we wanted to maintain a large deck, did we want to have an arborist on speed dial, did we notice this or that thing we might regret having not noticed? In short, we led, and he supported us while displaying a broad range of the kind of expertise and competency that can only come from lots of relevant meaningful prior experiences. Because of his actions, the kinds of advice he gave that emphasized integrity, the range and quality of information he provided for us quickly, and his ability to listen to and meet our needs; we are confident in recommending Geoff without reservation. From us, that is our highest recommendation and is intended to communicate something far exceeding a great review. We ended up with the right property negotiated at the right price for our needs at this time. If our needs change, we would enthusiastically seek out his help again. read more

I think the most valuable part of Geoffs service was the great advice he gave. There was the critical renovations he recommended for improving the sale value of the home while keeping cost and return on investment in mind. Also the strategy around the pricing of the property lead us to a sale that was well over the list price and exceeded my expectations. He was always responsive. Even at hours for which I didn't expect a reply until the next day, an email would show up in my inbox in 15 min. He was straight forward with his evaluation of the property and wasn't afraid to say where things needed work or facts that might have been disappointing but were also important to acknowledge. He recommended great people to work with (home inspector, stager, photographer). And after the renovations were finished I basically had no worries from staging, photography, listing, etc right through to closing. read more

Geoff is knowledgeable, strategic, detail-oriented, and attentive. He walked us through each step of the sale. He kept in daily communication with indepth reports concerning our home and comps. His diligent work resulted in multiple offers after just a few days on the market. We got the end result we were hoping for. Thank you for everything, Geoff! read more

Geoff Hill - Keller Williams Realty - West Seattle home sold by Geoff Hill - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Geoff supported my fiance and I in buying our first home several months ago. He spent a huge amount of time answering our questions, and educated us on strategy, the market and physical attributes of homes to help us make the best decision for ourselves. Once we found our home, he was incredibly helpful in creating a successful offer strategy. He was highly communicative and always available for us, no matter the time of day. Not only do we trust him with our real estate needs, but Geoff has become the go-to realtor of our group of friends. With 4 of our friends having purchased a home with Geoff, we knew we were in good hands. read more

Let me begin by saying that I don't trust realtors. The very nature of the transaction means that the realtor is working for themselves, not you. The realtor has no incentive to sell the house for a higher price, but to simply sell the house as fast as possible. Their commission won't be much different either way. So while the above statement is true, this was not what I experienced working with Geoff. In fact, it was quite the opposite. This was the fifth home I've sold, and the best experience, by far. I started this process back in May of 2018 by interviewing four realtors. Geoff was my first pick, and I had already decided to go with him, however my wife changed her mind and we had to table to sale. A year and a half went by, and we were finally ready to sell. I reached out to all four realtors again, and guess who was the first one to respond? Yep, Geoff. I not sure exactly what I liked about Geoff, but I didn't get that "high pressure" sales-y crap from him. Everything he said rang true to me--and in fact it was. His idea to price the home a bit lower than value was excellent, and this created the multiple-offer situation I was looking for. The home sold for about $100K more than I'd thought it would. I am overjoyed to say the least. Every aspect of working with Geoff was top notch and professional. He's also fun to talk to to boot. Geoff posted fun signs around the home to highlight its features. Geoff is an expert negotiator. Geoff had great ideas regarding preparing the home for sale. Geoff put together an easy to read excel document that allowed me to easily review all seven offers. Geoff explains everything in detail. Geoff answered my stupid questions with aplom, which were mostly prompted by friends asking said stupid questions. Geoff works with a fantastic staging company, who did an outstanding job. I'm not sure how someone can be this awesome. He probably kicks his dog or something. TL;DR: JUST HIRE THIS FUCKING GUY read more

Being first time home buyers, it was important we partnered with an expert who was informative, patient and skilled in negotiation tactics. We found just that person with Geoff Hill. Several striking qualities that Geoff possessed include: 1. Honesty. Geoff is here for you, he's on your team. We toured a home that looked promising, until Geoff pointed out some peculiar aspects of the neighboring home that lead to our decision to pass on the property. It goes to say, "you can switch homes but you can't switch your neighbors." 2. Patience. Geoff respects the autonomy of his clients and never once told us "you should buy this home." Our decision to put an offer down was made after many informed discussions with Geoff, by us. 3. Negotiation skills: Geoff has a knack for this stuff and knows when to play hardball versus harmonious. He digs deep for the discounts pre and post inspection, which landed us close to $10,000 discount all while staying reasonable and appealing to the sellers. In addition, his expertise in fine combing through contract terms was a great benefit. We probably went through 10+ addendums to the contract but all worth it from a buyers perspective to ensure we got the best deal. read more

Working with Geoff was awesome. With many years in the field he knew what to look for when choosing our new home. He offered sage advice while letting us explore what was right for us. We loved his communication with us throughout the process. He really had our back. If you are in the market for a new property Geoff is your guy. read more

Geoff worked so hard to make our complicated sale happen! He stuck with us and offered tremendous support while we struggled through an intense remodel prior to sale. I still can't believe all that he helped us execute in as short a timeline as possible. Geoff will work hard for you too and make your transaction happen as seamlessly as possible. read more

Being first-time homebuyers, we couldn't have gone with a better broker than Geoff! Because of him (and a bit of luck), we are now new homeowners of the first and only home we put in offers for, and we couldn't be more grateful! There are so many qualities that we appreciated about Geoff, but for the sake of brevity, we'll share the ones that really stood out to us: From the start, Geoff was very clear about the methods of communication depending on the level of urgency. Because of this, we knew exactly what medium to use to get the information we needed (e.g. email, cell, or call). No guessing. There was only one day where his schedule didn't allow him to personally show us a home, but his partner Kelly stepped right in and had tours all scheduled on our preferred day. At no point in time did we feel like we couldn't reach either of them. He asked us questions to gauge whether or not we had unrealistic expectations so that he could help set realistic ones. Navigating a seller's market as a buyer was not an easy thing to do, and Geoff prepared us for this by sharing possible scenarios, which made rejections (luckily we only had one) that much easier to handle. Geoff let the homes speak to us instead of speaking about the homes. We asked him early on in the process what we should expect from him since we had not done this before, and he was clear that he wasn't the type of agent to push his clients to buy. This was one of the biggest decisions of our lives, and it was so refreshing to know that we wouldn't be pressured into buying a home that we wouldn't love or one that wouldn't be right for us. He would bring attention to certain parts of a home he felt were concerning, and alternatively would also point out things he thought were good qualities. Because the home we bought was actually one that he couldn't show us personally, he even went back and shot a video of his walkthrough with comments! After viewing a number of homes with Geoff we quickly realized that he had high standards for homes (for good reasons), and we could tell that he was looking out for us. Therefore, knowing that we bought a home that had his "stamp of approval" reassured us that we were making a sound decision. When it came time to put in an offer, he explained the reasons behind every number and ultimately let us decide on what numbers we were comfortable with. We weren't pushed into agreeing on amounts we couldn't afford, which is so important since we are the ones that have to make those payments. It was made clear from our offers that Geoff was there to protect us and our money. We weren't encouraged to waive any rights/contingencies that didn't make sense. Instead, he focused on strategically making our offers more attractive/impressive, which is ultimately why we ended up getting our home over another buyer that offered a higher amount than we did initially. Early on, we felt very overwhelmed by all of the lender options out there, and we're so glad that we went with a recommendation of Geoff's. Because he had experience working with our lender, they kept each other informed about everything during the closing process, making it more streamlined and straightforward for us to follow along. Although there is more we can speak to regarding Geoff, even with the short amount of time that we worked with him, ultimately what mattered to us was that he helped us buy a home that we will love for a while to come. Thank you! read more

Our buying experience with Geoff couldn't have gone better. He's knowledgeable, patient, communicative, and we never felt an ounce of pressure. As first-time homebuyers in an overwhelming market, it gave us great peace of mind to have Geoff in our corner. We'd highly recommend Geoff to all family and friends. read more

We've now used Geoff to buy our first home in 2017 and then reached back out in October 2021 to sell that very home. Both were such great experiences! I was truly looking forward to buying a new home just so that we could work with Geoff again. As soon as you talk to him you know you're in good hands. You never feel manipulated or coerced into any decision you don't feel comfortable with. He's so knowledgeable of this crazy Seattle market and gives you plenty of thorough detail. And over the years we would often text him asking a random question regarding prepping our house for sale, etc and he ALWAYS answers within minutes and with a lot of detail. I don't know how he does it. But we're so thankful and thrilled to have just sold our home for far more than we ever dreamed of. Thanks again Geoff!! read more

I enjoyed working with Geoff. Throughout the home buying process, Goeff's experience and advice was invaluable. It was great having him call out potential issues, fighting off aggressive agents trying to push into our scheduled tours, and generally being available whenever we had questions. Geoff made a significant effort to join us for any tour we wanted, but it was also great getting to tour houses with Kelly for times that didn't work out. Additionally, Goeff has a ton of contacts and recommendations for all steps of the home buying experience. I would definitely recommend Geoff to anyone looking to buy a home in the Seattle area! read more

Geoff is by far the best realtor I have ever worked with. He provides a full service, including staging, showings, open houses, advertising, daily detailed updates and more. I relocated from Seattle to Orlando for work and Geoff took care of my every need remotely. His level of expertise and competitive edge is impeccable. I had my home listed with another realtor for 3 months without any offers. After listing with Geoff I had 4 competitive offers above my asking price within 2 weeks. I would highly recommend listing your home with Geoff read more

I recently completed the purchase of my first home, and Geoff Hill was nothing short of essential during the crazy, hectic process of buying a house in the Seattle area. I was a first time home buyer and I now have a new understanding of how crucial it is that you choose a strong partner as your realtor. My process involved 3 months of searching, 2 accepted offers that did not pass inspection, and a 3rd (and final) accepted offer that had bump after bump along the road to closing. During the countless home tours, Geoff ALWAYS treated me as his top priority. The story doesn't stop there... any time, day or night, Geoff made himself available to ensure that I had the support I needed to evaluate potential options, make offers, schedule tours and inspections, and eventually make every move needed ahead of schedule to ensure an on-time closing. In addition to Geoff's availability, I had the pleasure of working with his partner, Kelly, who was just as supportive and knowledgeable on the rare occasion that Geoff was not available for a house tour. Geoff guided me away from a handful of options and never forcing my hand, demonstrating how he is absolutely NOT commission driven as many others are, but truly cares about my well-being. Geoff's impact was most heavily felt during my process of making offers and evaluating counter-offers. His level head, strategic mind, and strong advocacy on my behalf significantly boosted my confidence, ensuring that I provided the best offers and counters possible, perfectly balancing between aggressive and fair. I cannot thank Geoff enough for his support and would strongly recommend that you stop your search for a realtor right now and commit to working with Geoff Hill. read more

Geoff and his partner Kelly were a pleasure to work with. They helped us navigate a challenging market and provided insight and advice at every step of the process in both buying and selling. Geoff strikes a perfect balance of helpful and realistic. He was willing to offer advice but always made sure we had 100% of the information we needed to make decisions for ourselves. We benefitted from his extensive experience in all areas of real estate. read more

Geoff made my first home buying experience both seamless and educational, two things I value highly. I was looking to make a purchase during the hectic and very changing Seattle real estate boom and Geoff was incredibly patient and helpful throughout the process. With this being my first home, I had MANY questions and Geoff always took the time to answer my questions thoughtfully and quickly. I felt I was in good hands my entire experience with Geoff and would recommend him highly! read more

My husband and I worked with Geoff in an extremely difficult real estate market as first time homebuyers. The challenges were numerous. Homes escalating 25% above asking, many multiple offer situations, low inventory etc. At times it was completely demoralizing. Let me just say, we couldn't have survived without Geoff. To start, he was unbelievably supportive in educating my husband and I in the complexities of the home buying process. This took a ton of work on his end but helped us feel equipped to make sound decisions at every step of the way. Geoff understands the local market more than anybody. We were new to the area so this helped us immensely and we felt like all of our questions were answered thoroughly. He's also been in this field so long that he has an extensive network of people he can refer you to if something is outside of his purview. From loan agents, to home inspectors, and even arborists. At the end of the process we were able to successfully purchase a home. The situation we found ourselves in was favorable due to some background work that Geoff did. Finding yourself in a favorable situation in this market feels unheard of. Without Geoff, we might still be looking. I didn't grasp just how important the agent choice is in the home buying process until we were in the thick of it. There were so many ways he brought massive value to our search with his knowledge and expertise. If you want to work with an agent who you can trust, who fully has your back, and who knows everything, you'll want to pick Geoff. I can confidently say that he genuinely wants the best outcome for his clients whether it benefits him or not. read more

I highly recommend Geoff Hill to trust with your home search. My family had an especially challenging situation of starting a new job and relocating to a new city with a 2-month old baby. Needless to say we had a lot on our plate. Geoff's professionalism and attention to detail made the home buying process stress-free. He went above and beyond to keep us informed, move the process forward quickly, and find our dream home for a price we were excited about. Get Geoff on your team. read more

Geoff went above and beyond for us while we looked for and eventually bought our first home. His high ratings online were proven to us time and time again as we encountered many difficult bidding wars through the months it took for us to be successful. He gave honest opinions, great advice, listened to us, and was our advocate through a particularly lengthy and strenuous escrow though no fault of our own. His professionalism, courtesy and experience were everything we had hoped for and more in a realtor, and we are so glad we chose him. Though we feel like we bought a home to live in for a long while, we wouldn't hesitate to use his services again, and definitely recommend him! read more

My wife and I began our house search in 2021, a really competitive time in the Seattle market. It was our first house and we had a LOT to learn. Geoff and his partner Kelly spent an incredible amount of time educating us and were extremely patient as we looked at lots of houses, figuring out what we wanted. Geoff was super responsive - without his lightning fast responses and offer preparation there is no way we could have overcome our indecisiveness to be quick enough to compete in this market. He encouraged us to be patient, stick to our strategy, and it paid off. We ended up in a house that we absolutely love. We would highly recommend working with Geoff - he has tremendous expertise, is extremely hard working, and will look out for your best interest. read more

Geoff is awesome! Geoff's reputation as one of the top real estate brokers in Seattle is well deserved and I would highly recommend working with him on your next real estate purchase. We looked at many houses over the span of several years before we found the right home, and he was patient and helpful throughout the process. Geoff's hard work and professionalism shone through from start to finish and he is an excellent negotiator, someone you definitely want to have on your side. Geoff is also responsive at all hours of the day and more than willing to answer detailed questions and provide expert advice. 10 out of 5 stars. read more

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Geoff as our buying agent. Geoff provided 5-star service from first contact all the way to today, months after we purchased our house. Geoff wants to form long-term partnership with his clients, not simply get to purchase or sale as quickly as possible. When we were looking for properties, he gave us his local knowledge on different areas. Since we were out of state, he was incredibly responsive in doing video tours of properties for us. We primarily corresponded via e-mail during this time and despite us sending him dozens of properties to look at, he would always make time to offer his honest thoughts. When we found a few properties we wanted to put down an offer for, he gave us competitive benchmarks, did the due diligence on all the seller's documents, and offered his thoughts on how high he thought the price would go. When we were in a multiple offer situation, he encouraged us not to get emotional and only offer a price that made the property still a good deal. Despite being remote and trying to buy in Seattle's very competitive market, we managed to purchase a property within a month of contacting Geoff. When we had our offer accepted, he introduced us to an excellent lender that allowed us to secure the mortgage ahead of time. He also went the extra mile to answer our questions about the property and rental rates in the area. Even months after our purchase, Geoff still stayed in touch, making time to check the water meter, look up parking documents, and more. I cannot recommend Geoff more highly - I feel like I not only found a great real estate agent, but also a friend. read more

Geoff helped us buy our first home in spring 2018, right at the height of the Seattle market craziness. He was extremely helpful, walking us through the mortgage and offer process and always available for a last-minute viewing to give his thoughts on a property. Working with Geoff never felt like working with a salesperson -- he's just an honest guy who wants to help you find the right home. We ended up closing on our first offer under asking price, much of which was thanks to Geoff working tirelessly with my partner while I was out of town to get quotes from contractors to help negotiate the price down. We couldn't have done it without him, and I've recommended Geoff to several other friends looking for a realtor they can count on. read more

Geoff deserves 6 out of the 5 stars on Yelp! As first-time home buyers who had just moved from out-of-state, he was there through every step of our journey in this highly competitive market. My husband and I reached out to Geoff even before we moved to Seattle. His professionalism, knowledge about the local market and friendly demeanor won us over immediately. Even before we met him, Geoff would take time out of his busy schedule to check out houses and do video walk-throughs to send us. We highly recommend Geoff as an agent and here are some top reasons why: 1) He goes above and beyond for his clients - even with his insanely busy schedule, he's incredibly responsive at any time of day/night. 2) He is very honest and offers great advice, never pressuring us - in fact, he even talked us OUT of a couple homes, knowing they weren't quite right for our family. 3) He "knows a guy" for anything you might need in the home-buying process, including his recommendation for our loan officer, who closed our home from due-date to keys-delivered in just 3 weeks! 4) His ability to connect and form personal relationships with everyone in the home-buying process, not only with his clients. This was a true differentiator in what makes him so unique and successful. At the end of the day, you'll feel like you've made a friend. 5) On the rare occasions when Geoff's not available to show a home in a pinch, you'll get to work with his partner Kelly, who is also awesome! We won a bid on our dream house in a great Seattle neighborhood over 4 other compelling offers (one in all cash!) and could never have done it without Geoff. If you're looking for a world-class real estate agent, look no further - Geoff Hill is your man! read more

I was searching the internet for a realtor and found Geoff. He had lots of good reviews, so I interviewed him. He was knowledgeable, had good suggestions, and was personable, so I decided to work with him. Geoff lived up to his good reviews. For example... He gave me good advice on changes and improvements I could make to my house. He researched my house's specifications, including if it was energy star certified or not. He arranged for my house to be staged, and he covered the cost... same for the photos. He prepared all the sales paperwork expertly. He provided daily email updates while my house was listed. He analyzed the offer I got, and gave me his opinion on how strong the offer was. He didn't stop after the house went pending; instead he continued to help me through the title and escrow process until the transaction was closed. He was quick to reply to me when I reached out to him. He was pleasant to work with and friendly. He took the time to explain things to me and advise me of my options. I would work with him again, and I highly recommend him. He went above and beyond. He earned his 3% commission, and I greatly appreciated his help. read more

Geoff helped me and my fiancé buy our first home. He was always quick to respond to emails and texts. It always felt like Geoff had our best interest in mind. He never pressured us into doing something we weren't comfortable with and even advised us against doing something risky just to get our offer accepted on a house we were competing on. If you're looking for a broker you can trust, I highly recommend Geoff! read more

Geoff was the perfect agent to walk me through the process of buying my first home. He never pressured me along the way since his goal was also to help me find a perfect place that I loved. I was able to do that because of his knowledge and experience in the Seattle market which you need with the competition out there. He answered texts/calls immediately, made sure we got into showings as soon as a new home was listed, made my offer competitive, and had great relationships with everyone we interacted with along the way. I'm so glad I had Geoff listening to what I needed and leading the way to make the process dare I say enjoyable. I will definitely use him again if/when the time comes! read more

This is our first time purchasing an investment property in Seattle and we do not know our way around Seattle. Not only that, we don't know any vendors in this city who can help us with financing and property managing. Luckily we found Geoff through Yelp. He has not only shared with us details of information about each vendors he referred, but he will also give detail information about the properties we were interested in. Geoff does not only respond fast but also very detail. I have seen many realtors who just show and go, no comments, no educational facts to share, and no people network to refer to. Oh, and not to mention that it's takes them forever to respond. I think Geoff is very professional and very passionate in what he does. I will definitely refer my friends who is interested in purchasing properties in Seattle. read more

I worked with Geoff over several months in preparing and selling my condo. He was very knowledgable, shared a lot of information along the way to allow me to make the best decision to fit my needs, never felt pressured, was spoken to with respect and listened to at every turn. I felt I was in good hands, that he was doing his best for me. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to anyone. read more

We were introduced to Geoff by satisfied clients last year. We learned why. The Seattle market covers quite an area, though our focus was quite narrow - West Seattle, southwest of downtown - and though Geoff lives north of downtown, at least 45" away, he had a good of where value was there, too (and more importantly, wasn't). On more than one occasion he was able to drop other commitments and help us with remote viewing via video walkthroughs (when away from Seattle, we were in Europe) and organizing of pre-purchase inspections; in one case, on only only a few hours notice precipitated by a curious bidding deadline - a Sunday evening (?!), for a property we had only happened by during a Saturday open house. On more than one occasion, he was able to glean seller intentions via their brokers, and during the negotiations for our ultimate purchase, sage advice on both outright bidding strategy and when to force the seller to accept his notional target was fanciful, for at least us as buyers. All this was in the context of an uneven market where any degree of consistency was rarely the norm. read more

We would be stunned if there is a better Seller's Broker than Geoff Hill within 100 miles of Seattle. The short story is that he sold our house quickily for a good price. The long story is that he helped us with several throny problems related to moving out of a house that we had lived in for 41 years. Getting rid of numerous items of quality furniture without taking them to the dump (important to us) was just the beginning. He found people who needed / wanted these items and, within one day, the items -- including two beds, a futon and matching chair, a chest of drawers, a large working table, 6 large utility shelving units -- were gone. He personally took two mattresses and one bed that had to be cut up to the dump. [Ever try to move a queen-size mattress from an upper story by yourself?] Geoff put us in touch with an structural inspector, an interior painter, and a house cleaner, and "touched up" a few spots that the painter didn't cover. He gave us a selection of virtual staging scenarios and staged the house to good effect. He gave us excellent advice on which "fix-it" items were worth the investment -- interior paint, roof cleaning, minor yard work. He was very well informed with respect to optimal pricing of the house -- i.e. encouraging serious buyers without attracting opportunists. He visited several "comps," and went over the strengths and weaknesses of each to make sure that the house was priced appropriately. In all respects, Geoff Hill did an excellent job in selling our house. Sign him up; you can't go wrong. read more

Amazing quick response from yelp contact and very helpful. Thanks Geoff!
