He listened to exactly what my wife and I wanted - and within a week we found our dream home (from out of state!). After I flew out to check out homes, Grant made sure to meet with me at several homes. A huge win thanks to Grant's communication and customer service. He was responsive and quickly returned any questions, concerns, or comments. Very down to earth, honest, and friendly. This guy is your guy - he certainly went above and beyond for us and we couldn't have done it without him. Thanks Grant.

When my fiancé and I first contacted Liz, it was primarily to see if we would qualify to purchase a…read morespecific property we had our eye on that was on the market. After our initial conversation with her, we didn't expect to move forward with the home buying process so soon, but we did. I remember telling my fiancé right after we ended our conversation with Liz that I wanted her to be our agent. I truly appreciated how people centered, passionate, and incredibly knowledgeable she is about the process. She made us feel completely comfortable asking questions and helped us clearly understand what the home buying journey would look like. Liz never made us feel rushed or pressured into anything. She truly respected our pace and guided us with patience and understanding every step of the way. Since my finance and I currently live in Los Angeles, Liz took her time to tour several homes that we were interested in. All of the videos she sent to us were extremely thorough and informative which made our process easier. It felt like we were actually there although we were miles away. We really appreciate Liz for taking the time to record and share the tours with us while giving us her opinion on things that stood out to her that were concerning. This is something we would not have been able to pick up on since we were not present. Liz really listened to what we were looking for in a home and she delivered. We cannot recommend her enough! She is truly an AMAZING agent to work with. We're beyond thankful for Liz and The Porchlight Group. If we ever decide to buy another home in the future, we are absolutely going back to her! IN LIZ WE TRUST!!

Being in Las Vegas but looking for a place in Seattle and not knowing ANYONE or where or how to even begin the process. I used YELP for what is here for...to find businesses and read reviews. I searched Realtors and started to read reviews. After reading several reviews I knew I wanted to go with a smaller vs. a bigger company (where they might hand you off to whoever or you get lost in the shuffle). SOOOOO glad I went with Liz! I really believe that things happen for a reason and people come into your life for a reason. From the first time I spoke to her she had a great energy and vibe and I knew she was going to be a hustler. I was already impressed from the get go! In the beginning I explained what my husband and I were looking for, (which I thought were pretty strange requests criteria...because this condo was going to be used for our employee, it needed to be within a certain proximity, near the airport and within our budget). Liz just rolled with it and got on it. I think it was that night or the next we were already Facetiming a property we were interested in...that's how quickly she was on it! BTW she gives great video commentary and is thorough and honest with her review of the places. Not being there and actually seeing something in person for such a large purchase is kind of scary, but it truly was a great experience that I wasn't expecting. She listened and cared about our opinions and was never pushy. So right now the market is CRAZY!! We put in about 3-4 offers starting in February and kept getting outbid by cash offers and waiving everything. Finally we found something that was perfect for us and had keys and were moving in on April 8! We got to do a little fixer upping (Liz helped with finding a contractor) and was able to pick out flooring, paint and light fixtures, to our liking, all for asking price (seller was throwing in some $). BEYOND impressed with Liz and her team! From start to finish and all throughout the process Liz always kept in touch and updated with what was going on. Almost daily emails with new listings or possible places then following up with which ones we were interested in seeing. She was ON TOP of it! Not sure how she keeps it all straight because you will feel as if you are her only client (which I know we weren't), with how dedicated and on top of it she is. She was very knowledgeable, patient, kind, generous and helpful in SO MANY WAYS! You will NOT regret choosing her and her team to buy or sell your home! Just give her a call and she will get right on it...because she can't help it and truly loves what she does, and also loves to work! lol

From Day 1, Sophia showed that she is passionate about helping people through this often frustrating process. She handled just about every aspect of the sale, from staging the home to battling with my mortgagor to approve the sale. She worked so hard for me and the buyer to make this deal close. I don't think it would have closed without Sophia's drive. I highly recommend Sophia to represent either side in the process!

My husband, a home inspector, had spent years working alongside Sophia, and when it came to selecting one of the many agents he has relationships with, Sophia was the Clear Choice! My husband has worked with Sophia and seen how she goes above and beyond for all of her clients, and we trusted the sale of our home to her without hesitation. She did an amazing job Staging our home, and kept us informed along the way with updates. At one point, she was out in the bushes with our landscaper clearing a path for the septic inspection! Sophia is highly recommended as she will take great care of your home and the process it takes to sell it at top (reasonable) dollar. Thank you Sophia for your devotion and care while listing our home, we always felt we were of priority, and I knew you were juggling multiple clients at the same time as us which just goes to show how you make every client, a top priority client!

This review is for Joyce Speight, a realtor who works in Re/Max Choice Executive office…read more Agreeing Joyce to be our buyer agent was the biggest mistake I have ever made in my whole life. She is the most unprofessional, inexperienced, arrogant, and unethical realtor I have ever worked with. We were introduced to Joyce by another agent, whom we initially would like to hire as our buyer agent. Due to some limitations, Joyce wrote the offer for us. And our nightmare began. The following things I listed are 100% true experiences. 1. Joyce doesn't put our best interest as her priority, claimed she only gets paid by sellers, and she doesn't work for us. Even though we provided a very good offer to the sellers, Joyce tried to hoax us to pay for the unknown King county capacity charge in the first offer. We were lucky that we found it and asked her to change the offer. She asked " What if the sellers do not accept it? What will you guys want to do? Not to buy it? ..." We were astonished when she presumably thought we had no choice but to buy this house through her. 2. Joyce doesn't treat customers with courtesy. She has always been giving us brush-offs whenever we have questions. Her attitude was basically either "you-guys-know-nothing-why-don't-you-shut-up" or "who-told-you-that". We are new to Washington State and we indeed do not possess much real estate knowledge. She sensed we were eager to purchase this house and wanted to close as soon as possible. She used this to threaten us at least a couple of times. She suggested us to order inspection (her guys of course) and then told us not to ask sellers to fix anything. 3. Joyce lacks realtor experience. She intentionally scheduled appraisal before the new carpet was installed. She slowed down the closing process and our loan agent had to make up the schedule by putting more hours. Our loan agent complained several times how unprofessional she was during the closing time. 4. She was not willing to do anything extra for us. She did not even bother to show up at the closing. 5. Her attitude was always negative throughout the whole closing time. She doesn't have a can-do attitude and kept telling us nothing can be done to make the closing a smooth transaction. From her emails, we have never felt she cared for us. She wrote: "obviously our personalities just clash. Had we had the opportunity to get to know each other prior to this transaction, I may not have taken you on as a client, or vice versa. " This happened just a few days before closing. We had no choice but to tolerant her rudeness and moved on. Overall, working with her was a horrible experience. I seriously doubt whether she has a very good reputation as she boasts. We were extremely disappointed. We stuck with her after the contract was signed. Update on 5/24/16: Laura Roth, the owner of the office, called me wrathfully and questioned why I threatened them. She concluded abruptly without talking to me: " You are lying! You lied about the closing delay! " Laura also questioned why I did not report the issues earlier. On 5/20/16 I did go to the Re/Max office. She was too busy to listen to my complaints. She would rather believe what Joyce told her than spend a few minutes to find out what really happened. I had to hang up because she started to attack me using abusive words. Laura immediately left a message saying this review is "a slander" to her company and she will contact yelp to get it removed. My review is honest and not a slander. I never meant to threaten anyone, instead I hope the issues will be addressed and their service can be improved in the future. This company probably will not do anything since the management does not take any less than perfect reviews positively.

Dennis Tamburo listed and sold our house and I would highly recommend him. Ours was a complex…read moresituation and Dennis was able to collaborate with all party's involved during the process. I have delt with many of real estate agents and good ones are few and far between. Dennis also had the resources to help finish some of the key projects that he identified would add value to our home. Dennis was helpful in pointing out little details buyers get focused​ on. He did a great job putting together comparable houses for sale in our area to determine​ pricing, he was also able to re-adjust as the market changed. We needed the house sold, Dennis could have suggested we hold out (so he made more money at the higher price) Instead Dennis made recommendations around a price drop and our options as to what it would take to move the house fast, which demonstrated a vested interest in us and our situation instead of just trying to make a few extra bucks. The house sold fast we still made money and the closing went smoothly. I am currently using Dennis to help me buy a house and his connections and relationships with quality proven mortgage brokers has already been a big asset to me. Dennis seems to have a pretty good bead on the very aggressive market here and we are preparing to. Move fast with a tight attractive offer when the perfect fit comes along. I will continue to use his services going and would highly recommend him

As a single mom I was super worried about making big moves but I was quite intrigued with her because she had accomplished my goals plus more. From woman to woman, I am so glad I met her because she had my best interest at heart. After I told her what my plans are, she told me things I need to avoid that no one else had brought up before and things I may want to consider instead to save money and time. Thank God! I would have put myself in a bind if she didn't advise me. Today I own multiple homes and because of her, I saved so much! Heartache, stress as well as financially. I will always go back to her with all of my real estate plans. So it's been a while and I lost her number. I found her again through Yelp and I'm so glad. She has helped many people buy and sell in my price range. I trust her to be honest and upfront with me if my plans are good, bad or have issues I should be careful with. Thank you Thu!! You have been awesome! I can't explain how grateful I am to have you! P.S. Thank you for always answer me so quickly! Best response time agent!
