We met Sam Konswa in 2016 as he was representing the sellers of our then first home. Out of the…read moreblue and during an open house, he gave us a long winded speech about his integrity and honesty, which should have ticked us. It quickly became clear that most of the attractive facts on the listing were simply false (walk in pantry, walk in closet), but above all, the size of the house. Unfortunately for us, we had no idea what 2100 sqft felt like and therefore believed the listing. It only came clear to us after purchase that the Sam had falsified the size, by 600 sqft.. It goes beyond saying, this is malevolent practice, aimed at making money above any integrity. Sam was clearly aware of the discrepancy between his number and the actual one: he and his team created a double entry in Zillow (Zillow has a default entry based on public facts), which would later be deleted by Zillow as clearly incorrect. This cost my young family around 200k as we went with the classic size * price per sqft, and have struggled with the feeling of being robbed every since. When I reached out to him after the sale, he told us this was what "the architect had in his plans", which is false. Our neighbor was the builder and affirmed us that this was a lie. Our agent realized this unfortunately too late and tried to offset a tiny portion of that blow by giving us his commission on the next house. I therefore do not recommend for you or your family to do any business with Sam, whether on the buy or sale side. Edit 08/07 based on Sam Konswa's response: this was not a new construction so the default size from Zillow should have been used (as is pulled from city data). Furthermore, and even in the case where it could have been a new build, the building plans simply don't state this size (again, I checked with the actual builder). But it doesn't matter, someone is just trying to blow some smoke. They should keep it up as it worked for them! Sam is right, my broker should have done their due diligence against malevolent practice such as this one. They had the decency to admit their failure to realize the maneuver, and did their best to financially offset the blow. One thing to note: we were the only bid at ask, as others must have seen through this.

Sam Konswa went above and beyond when he sold our home. Our quirky, in-need-of-updates 1905 home…read morewas a challenging project that ended up requiring more work than any of us ever expected, but Sam's expertise and patience got us through the difficulties to a sale that far exceeded our expectations. Our home was not ready to go on the market when Sam started working with us, but he offered a clear vision for the home that other realtors did not. In fact, we ended up listing for 35% more (!) than the price suggested by another realtor. It took a lot of work to get that price, but it was worth it. What really stood out to us when we first met Sam was his vision for the home. He pulled no punches in delineating what work needed to be done. But he also saw the value of the home--its location, its special qualities. He suggested just the right upgrades to help its amenities shine. Rather than trying to fix everything, he was cost conscious and realistic about what improvements would give us the most return. And he provided names of people he trusts to help us tackle these jobs, which was a huge benefit. With Sam's positive attitude and logistical advice, he provided us with a plan that was doable, easy, and cost effective. But the fates were not easy on us. After we accepted an offer and the survey uncovered a serious problem, Sam helped us breathe deeply, take stock, and figure out a plan. Always he assured us it would work out. He went back to his Rolodex and uncovered every possible resource to help us solve the problem. When the work was done and the house went back on the market, Sam was steady and positive and patient--and we got multiple offers! In the end, we sold our home above asking with very favorable purchase terms. Sam offered excellent advice through the entire process. We could not have found a better realtor for our Queen Anne home than Sam Konswa. Sam is a great communicator--clear, personable, friendly--but when his opinion was required, he wasn't afraid to step in and provide clear-headed, no-nonsense, valuable advice. He was patient and kind with our many missteps. He had a can-do attitude and a vision about all the work that needed to be done. And he walked us through everything with a steady hand and a professional attitude. Plus, the home sold for more than we'd thought possible--which means Sam made some serious dreams come true for this lucky family. We want to thank Sam for taking the time to work with us so thoughtfully and carefully. We loved working with his office and his various contacts as well. We give Sam our highest accolades and recommend his skills and services with absolutely no reservations. Sam is awesome!

I am a pretty risk adverse individual so I'm glad that we were able to put in a loaded offer for the condo that I am now under contract for. I didn't think that I would be moving into a new place by the end of July, and so this beats my expectation.

Unfortunately, don't believe the fancy pictures or the comments. We moved from another state and…read morerented a house based on the comments here. Our problems started right after we rented, and they did address them initially, but then they couldn't agree with the landlord and parted ways. After that, I was left alone with the landlord. Of course, since their contracts ended, they don't have to help, but even though I continued paying all my rent through the platform they provided and they knew about the issues with the landlord, they offered no support when I moved out. They didn't even give me a reference, and because my landlord didn't reply to emails or replied late, or perhaps gave a bad reference, I had a lot of trouble finding a new place. All I wanted was a reference. I came from another state and rented this house sight unseen, trusting their name, but they didn't lift a finger to help me in my difficult time. In the end, with a baby, two months of stress looking for a house, being rejected, and paying more deposit because there was no reference or a bad one. Think twice before doing business with this company or trusting their name, and if possible, talk to the landlord directly and meet them because one day they might be disappeared. Otherwise, you might end up without electricity and get no help from anyone. Because at the end of the day, once they rent the house and get their money, you're nobody's concern. Note for response: I just have asked that I rented property via your company and paid on time. New landlord just want to make sure no eviction or delayed payments. You had all these information and legally you could refer me because I rented from your company and I have used zego payment via from your company. You guys just rented out took your money and left me alone with landlord. I dont know landlord.I trusted your company! You just betrayed and left your customer alone

We started our house hunt in Seattle from January, 2022. It was the most competitive and low-inventory housing market anyone experienced. From the beginning, Leah was very confident and patiently guided us through the process. She would make honest comments about the flaws of a property and point out the not-so-obvious short-comings. She was always available both in-person and over the phone. She never encouraged us to make unreasonable over-bidding even during the craziest market. She maintained a positive attitude throughout the process which helped us to move forward after getting rejections due to over-biddings. We were able to buy our dream house after 6 months of search. She went above and beyond to make sure the transfer process was smooth. I highly recommend her as an agent and wish her all the best.

My SIL referred Leah and said that she would sell our house and she did after only 2 days of our house being listed! Leah created action items in our client portal of what we needed to do to get our home ready ie. new carpets, patio decking. She hired a stager and a handyman as well. We moved out of our home entirely to have it properly staged but Leah would have been able to work around it either way. She was very concerned with our quality of life especially since we have a newborn baby and to alleviate some of the stress sent us a large package of entrées to help keep us fed. Our townhouse was listed on 4/9 and Leah hosted an open house on 4/11. We had multiple offers already on the evening of 4/11 and our house was pending the next day. Our family and friends were quite impressed with the staging, photos, and virtual 3D tour online. Leah kept us updated with our client calendar and that helped to keep us organized and on task for closing. We closed officially on 5/5! We are grateful for Leah and would refer her in a heartbeat. She would always communicate with us in order to verify what we wanted to do at various steps and guide us in the right direction. Her management of all relationships is gentle and kind, yet her realtor skills are firm and assertive. Leah is a top notch agent!
