This may be the first time I'm writing a review of a business I did NOT end up working with in the…read moreend. I reached out because of hearing the ad on the radio like a lot of people. I ended up being put in touch with Scott Wooster who had a very thorough and fun conversation with me where he learned about my insurance needs and situation. I responded to an email so he could review my whole picture that afternoon. The following morning I had a very detailed email with his thoughts. He recommended I stay with my current insurance carrier but then proceeded to suggest ways to reduce my premium there. I did those things that dramatically increased my coverage and reduced my total premiums by about 20%. I can't recommend FirstMark and Scott more. In the future I will be able to change my coverages and Scott will be the first one I call when that day comes.

I got in to a car accident 5 years ago, when I was only 20. When I finally bought another car, I…read moreknew insurance was going to be extremely high, so I just got a quote off a random well known insurance company and paid an arm and a leg for the coverage that my auto loan company required. Fast forward a year later, a friend of ours recommended Dieu. She saved us $300/ MONTH. She is absolutely amazing. Whenever we have a friend that needs insurance, or were not happy about their insurance, we always recommend Dieu. She is always next to the phone when you need her and she will always return calls in an orderly manner. Another reason why we respect Dieu so much is because our insurance went up a year ago. Dieu did everything in her power to lower it. She even got us a quote with another agent that can offer us a lower monthly payment. But we chose to pay more, so we can have Dieu as our agent. She is selfless and honestly care about us. Thank you, Dieu!!!

John is the man! If you want a smooth transaction, I would highly suggest him. We put our house on…read morethe market and got offers. 2 days later we found a house and wasn't even preapproved yet, so we started 3 days after our offer we accepted. John had explained everything (the process and what to expect) to me ahead of time. Everything he said happened and it went quick. Proof that his experience has made him the Master Yoda of his profession. Our new house was ready to close a week or more before our old house, even tho we started the process after. John was quick to answer all emails or texts and never seemed to mind my pestering questions. He is the quintessential professional. He made the buying process easy, and I would recommended him every day and twice on Sunday's. Thank you to John, Tiffany and everyone at your company for all your work in my satisfying home buying experience.

Working with Craig was an absolute standout experience. From the very beginning, it was clear that…read morehe wasn't just trying to get a loan done -- he was genuinely invested in our interests, our goals, and what made sense for our family in today's complicated market. Craig has that rare combination of deep expertise and real-world awareness. He understands how fast things move right now, how overwhelming the process can feel, and exactly how to navigate every twist and turn with confidence. He broke things down clearly, anticipated issues before they ever became problems, and always made sure we understood our options. What impressed us most was how intentional he was about protecting our long‑term interests. He didn't push. He didn't rush. He guided. He strategized. He advocated. And he did it all with a level of professionalism and care that's honestly hard to find. If you want someone who knows the landscape, knows the numbers, and knows how to put you first, Craig is the person you want in your corner. We couldn't be happier with the experience.

This is a boasting review because I genuinely believe that if you're inquiring about Troy and…read moreFairway, you're on the right track. Troy was recommended to me by a friend and I'm so thankful! He was the first person I reached out to in the home buying process as a first time home buyer. He was my go-to for any and all questions every step of the way. He always let me know my options, including insight like what was most common, what he recommended, and what the paperwork really meant. He even stayed responsive via text while he was out of town helping his daughter move into her college dorm- sending pre-approval letters from the plane! He was very easy to talk to and kind. My situation was a little different as I have a partner who I'm buying with that is not a first time home buyer. We had to go back and forth from having me on the loan solo (to get a better interest rate) vs having us both on the loan (to be able to qualify for a more expensive home) depending on the amount we were offering for each property. I can only imagine this was not easy on the paperwork end but he didn't hesitate to give me all options. In the end I was able to get a first time home buyer interest rate because of programs Troy found for me. He was also a great cheerleader along the way! This process is very involved and I would use Troy and his team again if I ever needed to!

There are very few people I refer clients to without a second thought -Troy is one of them. As a…read morereal estate broker in the greater Seattle and Eastside area, who I send my clients to is one of the most important decisions I make. My name is attached to that referral, and I don't take that lightly. Over the years, Troy and his team have consistently shown up the way I need them to - responsive, creative, and genuinely invested in finding the best solution for each buyer. We've worked together across Bellevue, Kirkland, Sammamish, Renton, and the greater Seattle area, and through all of it he has never once let a client fall through the cracks. What sets Troy apart isn't just that he knows his products - it's that he listens. He takes the time to understand what a buyer actually needs, and when he doesn't have the best program for that specific situation, he says so and connects them with someone who does. That kind of honesty and humility is rare in any industry. My clients deserve to be taken care of the same way I take care of them. Troy does that. If you're buying a home and need a lender you can trust, I highly recommend Troy.
