Catherine Arlen and her team with Windermere Real Estate have been incredible in selling our home…read more Her professionalism, expertise in knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work ethics resulted in our house selling in only ten days for a good price. She is detail oriented and has a great deal of practical experience. She gave us wonderful advice as well as encouragement. She has a delightful personality, is enthusiastic and fun to work with as sellers and great also with prospective buyers and their real estate agents. She has a personable team that schedules everything and kept us well informed about what was happening. Additionally, Catherine has a number of contractors who are very good at what they do, reasonably priced, and keep open spots so they can be scheduled quickly. They were scheduled by the team so that our job was hassle free. We are grateful that selling our home turned out to be a positive experience, a successful financial event, and a worry-free time thanks to Catherine. We highly recommend her.

I have used this Windemere office to purchase a home in the past with no issues. This review is…read morespecific to a sale where Sherry Grimes of Windermere Poulsbo was the buyer's agent. We sold our house through another agent and started experiencing unusual challenges about 10 days into the process. Reports of the buyer's agent (Sherry Grimes) being rude and abrasive with our contractors. For instance, as the seller we paid for a pre inspection. We repaired all major issues that came up. Our inspector offered a complimentary 15 minute telephone conference with the buyer if wanted. Sherry demanded that the inspector come out for a walk through. When told of the charge she told hime that "she wasn't paying for a damn thing." Additionally she demanded that the inspector be present at a specific time and date - even though he was booked and was only given two days notice. Her reasoning for this is that it was prearranged with all four parties - except that it wasn't arranged with us or our agent (who was out of town.) During escrow she sent an email saying that our request for a specific closing date left her client feeling hijacked and was of no benefit to him. The email was very confusing as the buyer sat at our dining room table and chose a closing date with us that would benefit us both mutually. Her client was later scolded for meeting us - we invited him to meet the neighbors of our very tight knit community. He later instructed her as to a closing date. Two days later she sent out this untrue email. It was laughable as we all knew the genesis of the decision. These untruths caused tension and stress with our agent because until this moment we did not know where all of the miscommunication and untruths were coming from. The irreparable damage it caused to our relationship is inexcusable. There was no need for any of this in a completely transparent transaction. Two weeks after this transaction finally closed, we received a mass marketed postcard in the mail of our former home. It was sent from Sherry Grimes at Windemere. It read that she SOLD the home and it was a solicitation for more listings in the area. When does a mischaracterization become a lie? She represented the buyer - yes. She did not SELL that house. I did talk to the managing broker. Poulsbo is too small of a town for this behavior. As the buyer's agent, she did have the job of working for her client. While she may have thought her actions were in his best interests, her actions were bizarre and caused damage - in addition to costing us additional money. As the seller we paid her contractual commissions, so we feel like we have the right to bring these issues to light. It will be over my dead body that I allow a friend of mine to do business with her. There was just no need for this.

This review is for Gabrielle Gaylord only. I'm sure other agents at John L Scott are much more…read moreenjoyable with which to do business. We tried to buy a house that was listed by Gabrielle and it was a horrible, HORRIBLE experience. We have bought a number of houses over the years and even built our own. Never have we been treated so poorly, let alone like scum of the earth like we were by Gabrielle. Due to her behavior, we strongly suspect that she never gave our initial offer to her clients. We really liked the house so we countered her nasty attitude with another offer. Her response that we would have to use a lender of her choosing. Are you kidding me? Who gets to tell me what lender I can choose? Again, we really liked the house so we ignored this nasty woman and resubmitted our offer with the high value earnest money she was demanding. She probably never bothered to give this full price offer to her client, either. I feel sorry for our agent and the team who had to deal with the worst, most unethical human in real estate. To top it off she is belligerent, nasty, and ridiculously unprofessional. You could tell that our agent's office was worn out on this woman without them having to say a word.

Teri Hewson is the man to call for all your Real Estate needs…read more My wife and I met Teri when he was the listing agent for a property we were interested in. We didn't buy that property (thankfully) but we liked Teri very much and really appreciated his professionalism and depth of knowledge regarding Real Estate. When we found another property we were interested in, we called Teri first so that he could show us the property and, more importantly, he would be become "our Realtor". Over the next few months, Teri faithfully and patiently showed us a number properties and each time he displayed the same calm, steady, informed and professional demeanor we'd come to expect and admire. We finally found a distressed and short sale property that required an incredible amount research, negotiation and leg work. Without even the slightest hint of stress or exertion, Teri showed us he definitely has the necessary "can-do", the experience, the professional relationships with other Realtors and local tradesmen to make the seemingly impossible, possible. Teri Hewson is very clearly the type of Realtor that gets his loyal clients "the old fashion way", he EARNS them. Teri Hewson is still "our Realtor" and when we recently needed solid advice and a positive recommendation for a property related issue, Teri once again proved he's the man to call. Thank you Teri!

It was a bit of a leap of faith to pick someone and go after just a few short conversations, as I'm not at all familiar with real estate. I'm so glad Megan won me over! She got the ball rolling with great recommendations after I told her I was looking for a vacation rental single family home, and although I was already doing tons of homework on Zillow to stay abreast of the market (still hypercompetitive), it was one of her finds that I ended up closing on! Today I'm happy to report that I'm the proud owner of a new house after what was a nigh-seamless offer, inspection, and closing. Megan helped provide a read on the neighborhoods I was looking into, lined out walkthroughs and open house visits, queued up an inspector on short notice, connected me with a local lender who helped us out with a 15-day closing -- in short, overdelivered on all parts of the home buying process which would have been overwhelmingly confusing otherwise.
