As first time homebuyers, we had plenty of questions along the way, and the entire team was always so responsive, patient, and helpful. We always felt like we were getting thoughtful and honest advice, and most importantly, that they genuinely had our best interests in mind. They never made us feel pressured and made sure we felt comfortable and confident with every decision. Melissa and Cait were also just such a pleasure to work with. They are warm, knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly on top of every detail. Having a team we trusted completely made such a difference throughout the process. We absolutely love our new home and are so grateful to TeamUp Seattle for helping us find it and guiding us through such a huge milestone. We could not recommend them more highly, especially to anyone buying their first home!

RAREnorthwest is such a gem! We feel so lucky to have found them. Between Trish, Sydney, and…read moreBrandi, they took care of literally everything. They had a whole session where they helped us understand the market in our area, and how we could best position our house, as well as which upgrades would add value, and which wouldn't give enough return on investment. Then the upgrades we chose to do, they took care of finding good vendors and securing competitive prices (which were far better than the prices we'd been able to obtain in the past), scheduling, etc. The only thing we had to do was approve and settle the invoice! I cannot tell you how much of a relief that was, to not have to manage ourselves. The result, was a house so striking we wished we'd had someone like them come in and refresh our house before we'd moved! We of course had another session, revisiting pricing and the market and different strategies we could take, before going on sale, where we not only had an offer the day AFTER we listed, but five by the end of the weekend. The sales process from there was frictionless and fast. Selling your house is a stressful experience. Having a team that hands-down knew what they were doing and could explain why with statistics and data and examples, and who took care of literally every aspect of selling, made it so much easier. I highly recommend RAREnorthwest! They are truly experts in their field and a delight to work with.

Get Happy at Home made the entire house buying experience a joyful and supremely positive…read moreexperience! Our first meeting with Matt, we spent over 90 minutes talking about our wants, needs, and preferences. He also walked us through their entire process, from our first tour through closing. From there, we had the chance to meet the team, and every single person over there is incredible. Ryan is like John D. Rockefeller fused with the Terminator (this is a compliment Ryan, I promise!) - he can spot issues and pain points in a house at a glance, and will literally leave no stone unturned to ensure things are up to code and built the way they're supposed to be (we watched him crawl into the smallest crawl space imaginable to check the insulation of a house once, I was shook). Karl is the most visionary man I've ever met, on several tours he painted a picture of all the ways we could modify a house to meet our preferences. I'm not talking about "hang a painting here", Karl would open his bid with "tear this half of the house down and rebuild it this way", and it was phenomenal. What I would give to pay a visit to his imagination. Matt is a force of nature. On any given day, he's juggling 5 of the craziest conversations and deals you can imagine, and HE has THEM all on the back foot. Matt knows the entire area and real estate market like the back of his hand, and always gave it to us straight as to what we were looking at. We certainly would not have found our dream house without his expertise, promptness, initiative, and professionalism. And of course there's Marta, who holds the whole operation together. What would we have done without her guidance in scheduling our tours and the weekly updates on our progress all the way up to and even after our closing! Two particular experiences stand out to me: On one house we were considering, we went back to visit at night to get a feel for the after-sun atmosphere. While we were there, Karl walked us through all the things about the house we might like or dislike, how we'd change them, and generally how the value of the house stood up to the asking price. We spent over an hour together that evening just chatting like old friends, and by the end of it, we determined that the house wasn't the one for us after all. In another instance, we toured a house that we were SURE was the one, so we went back in the evening with Ryan to look at it again. During that conversation, Ryan didn't try to convince us to make an offer or to walk away, he simply asked us questions. The one that got us was "let's pretend we were sitting in this house 5 or 10 years from now. Is it everything you need and want?". Walking through that exercise made us realize that the house was great for a childless couple, but perhaps not so once little ones become a factor. This was something we completely glossed over as we got caught up in the excitement of the house, and thanks to Ryan, we made the right choice to pass. In the end, we ended up buying the house of our dreams, a new build in the neighborhood we wanted with all of the things we were looking for. There's no way we would have ended up here without the entire team's expertise and willingness to endure a temporary "no" for the right "yes". I could not have asked for a better team to partner with for this search, and now we're happily in our dream house :) I would recommend GHAH 1000 times in a row, this whole team kicks serious ass.

We wanted to buy a bigger home as we grew our family, and Matthew took the time to really understand our goals and what was important to us. We felt supported and informed throughout the entire process and trusted Matthew to keep our priorities in mind.

When we ran into a few issues with the house, including a toilet leak and a roof vent leak, he promptly recommended reliable vendors to help us get them addressed. Overall, we had a great experience working with Matthew and highly recommend him for any real estate needs.

We would strongly recommend Matt to our friends and family in the area…read more We met with several realtors before choosing to work with Matthew to sell our home in Bellevue, WA. Matt wasn't the lowest rate, the highest sale volume, nor did he cite a substantially higher sale price. But his recommendations on prep/staging/marketing; his full-service, detailed, and organized approach; and our ability to speak honestly about expectations really stood out. We also appreciated that he recommended ways to highlight the unique touches in the home, rather than (literally) whitewashing everything as some other realtors advised. His approach magnified the things we loved about the home and the care we put into maintaining and improving it. We were out-of-state during the majority of the sale, and relied on Matt and his team very heavily for sale preparation. He made proposals, got quotes, and oversaw work. Matt was upfront about whether he thought each suggested improvement would pay for itself, and actively advised against changes other realtors had suggested that he didn't think were worth it. He was always clear that it was our decision and also happily accommodated us doing some of the work ourselves. Because of his and his team's diligence we were able to hit our target list date, with a house that was shown in its best light. The local market had become more uncertain: markets were softening and a similar house down the street was sitting on the market after weeks, despite a price drop. We adjusted our intended list price (still within his initial range) and our expectations, but Matt remained confident in the home and how it would show. We got an under-asking offer early, and Matt went into overdrive to solicit additional offers. Ultimately we got a very attractive at-list-price offer, the house went pending within a week of listing, and we had a very smooth closing experience. There's always luck involved, but we expect that with most other realtors it would have more work for us to get the house on the market and the sale price would have been lower.

I received glowing emails from my aunt about the process and we were all pleased with the outcome of the sale of this family home.
