We were doing everything from afar, and they were so responsive, on top of every detail, and fully committed to making sure we had all the information we needed. They even managed the inspection process for us remotely, which made a huge difference and took so much stress off our plate. They also helped our daughter and her husband find a home in Seattle, and the experience was just as wonderful. In both cases, they listened so closely to what we were looking for that we found our dream homes incredibly quickly. It really felt like they got us and were truly invested in helping our family land in the right place. We couldn't recommend TeamUP Seattle more highly. They're professional, warm, incredibly knowledgeable, and just genuinely great people to work with. If you're looking for a team that will go above and beyond for you, this is it.

He is extremely knowledgable and took time to walk us through the process and expectation. He was always communicative and very reliable whenever we have questions or need to look at some properties. We originally intend to be more passive while looking at houses and would take time to look through options. Matt was very receptive to that and always ensure we are truly comfortable with any decision we make. In the end, we got a new home pretty quickly also below the list price. The negotiation was handled expertly and any problems during the transactions were handled efficiently. I'd totally recommend Matt to anyone looking to buying a property actively or passively alike.

Matt was very knowledgeable, patient, honest, and not pushy like most salesman.

Instead, Danny made us feel informed, comfortable, and confident the entire time, which was huge for us as buyers. He was always available for questions, super knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping us make the right choice for our family. We're really grateful for all his help and would absolutely recommend him to anyone going through the home buying process.

He will drop everything to help ensure the smoothest possible transaction for everyone. James is a great negotiator and contract writer, even in the height of the 2018 Seattle RE Market he was able to negotiate a price for the clients that allowed them INSTANT EQUITY, before the buyers took possession of the keys!!

It's not that Rene's communication with us was bad, it was minimal. A few emails in 6 months. We were just strangely not in sync. It appears she wrote us off as problematic clients early in the relationship. After 6 months no sale, what a surprise. The coup de grace, Rene can't locate the 2 sets of keys and garage door opener to return to us. There's a lot of good realtors out there, I can't recommend Rene.

Our family bought a home in Queen Anne in 2011. This realtor was the seller's agent. When we saw…read morethe for sale sign, we called her and told her we would like to see the home. She said she was unavailable but would contact her colleague--another agent at Windemere--and have her meet us at the home to let us in. She let us in, and we ended up buying it. When we were in escrow and about to close the sale, this realtor's colleague, the one who let us in, filed a special claim for a commission IN ADDITION to the commissions being paid to this agent and our own agent. She claimed to be a participating agent who played a central role in selling us the home. We told this agent and her colleague, they should work this out amongst themselves. They refused. Rather than fight the claim, delay the purchase, and risk falling out of escrow, we paid it. It cost us several thousand dollars. We would not do business with this realtor again. She has never called us to apologize or make it right. Twice she has complained to Yelp about our review and convinced Yelp to pull it down. Twice we have put it back up. For reference, a picture of the home is included with this review.

She met the deadlines that she set for herself and helped us configure our furniture so that it would look great in the listing photos. We met with Eileen at the end of January 2016. We had multiple offers and Eileen had an offer meeting with us at her office. Buyer's agents came in and made a case for their buyers, with their contracts and terms. Eileen sifted through all the data and helped us decide which buyer had the strongest and most realistic offer. We closed on the sale of our place in early March. Again, I can't recommend Eileen enough. Definitely hire her for your real estate purchase or sale!

While we did not engage Jenni's affiliate for ongoing property management, Jenni still kept in touch throughout the year. It was her proactive communication that also helped us feel comfortable we were fulfilling all of the landlord responsibilities and following all necessary housing laws that Seattle has recently and historically passed. When that first year was up, Jenni expertly navigated a difficult transition, leaving us with zero down time on the rental and getting a new tenant signed and moved in smoothly. We will continue our relationship with Jenni as long as she'll have us, because we have been extremely pleased with her service.

Colleen is the absolute best! My fiance and I just closed on our first place and we could not have…read moredone it without Colleen's help! This was our first time buying and we had no idea what we were doing, and we had a pretty limited budget. I feel like as clients, we were not appealing, but Colleen was happy to work with us and was so warm and understanding from the very beginning. I first got in touch with her in January of 2018 and thought we would start looking closely after, because of some extenuating circumstances, we didn't actually pick things up for over a year. When I contacted Colleen again in March of 2019, she was just as happy to help me as when we first met and took my request to work with her seriously. I feel like a lot of agents could have judged me for that lapse in time, but Colleen never did. She listened, really listened to what I wanted, never got annoyed or judgmental about my preferences, and she was so willing to tour properties with me and give me feedback about each place. We did not know at all what to look for in home and Colleen really helped me when touring properties to understand what was a good idea and what wasn't. In the end we are moving into a condo that meets the expectations we had when we started looking, and I didn't think that would have been possible in Seattle. On occasion she wasn't available to tour something with me, but she would send her assistant, who was fantastic. I never felt like I was hanging and she was so easy to get in touch with. She met me on my schedule wherever I needed. She walked us through literally everything and helped me put together a fair, but competitive offer. Our very first offer was accepted and I know it was because Colleen gave me great advice. She was so helpful in putting together a counter offer after the inspection and she helped me negotiate quite a bit towards closing costs. What also makes Colleen so great is that she works with knowledgeable, reliable contacts for everything from the home inspection to general contract work. She's 100% reliable and competent, which is so hard to find. She was really there for us and so easy to work with. Everyone told me buying a home in Seattle would be a competitive and terrible experience, but it really wasn't and so much of that was thanks to Colleen. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home and if my fiance and I ever sell our place, or buy something else, we will definitely use Colleen.
