Testimonials
Overall the service was excellent. We appreciated the counsel in staging and pricing. We especially appreciated the work Sam did in the fine negotiations on the selling price. We can easily recommend Queen Anne Real Estate to others!
I worked with Ashley and her team to sell my Queen Anne home. I cannot say enough great things about her. She knew the area, she helped prepare the home, gave open and honest recommendations of how to enhance the view and value of it and had incredible trust and respect for her through the entire process. I highly recommend Ashley and team.
I worked with Sam to sell my Queen Anne home. Sam was thorough, professional, extremely knowledgeable of the area and how best to position my home for success. Very happy with the outcome and highly recommend Sam and his team.
Thank you for everything you do. I’m so glad you’re in my world.
Excellent, professional, and above and beyond expectations! Sam listened, put energy into the pursuit of the right house, always answered our calls promptly, advised us well, and we felt we could trust him, because he is a person of integrity. Sam listened to what we wanted and needed. After having a different home fall through (when Sam was not our agent), and after looking for some time, we were ready to give up until spring. Sam persevered. He heard about this house that fit the description of our needs and called us. He encouraged us to pursue it, even though we were faint-hearted. His faith was strong when ours was weak. We are so thankful to the Lord and for Sam who was his instrument in our lives to pull it all together.
I have actually purchased two homes from Sam and find him to be the most straightforward and knowledgeable realtor I have ever worked with. Often realtors focus their efforts on figuring out what you are willing to spend and matching you to properties they think you might buy. Sam took time to understand a bit about how we live, our preferences and pet peeves, as well as our longer term goals. In both cases he matched us with perfect homes for us. Further, he continued to follow-up on any outstanding issues and made sure we were completely satisfied with our purchases, long after they closed. The thing about Sam that sticks out to me is that he doesn’t need to work as hard as he does. He is by far the most successful realtor in the area. Despite that, he is unrelenting in taking care of his clients. I believe that this is because he truly loves what he does and that is reflected in his results. He loves helping people. BTW, my friends who have sold through him have had similar experiences. I cannot recommend him enough!
Thank you so much for all your help in finding our new home! We really appreciated your flexibility and honest opinions. Between having a new baby and buying a house, our lives were pretty stressful, but you helped make it as easy as possible.
We engaged Sam to facilitate our home search last fall. He added expert advice on everything from neighborhood value, home potential, remodeling costs, to optimizing offers for success. By spring, we had a much clearer idea of the home we wanted and found the perfect one. In a competitive bidding situation, our bid won. Sam backed our decisions the whole way and we couldn’t imagine a better professional to have on our team. Thanks to Sam’s negotiating skill, we avoided a costly escalating bidding war and won with a second place bid potentially saving over $100k! Sam’s firm also handled selling our townhome. There, we had a seamless transaction with excellent terms and an over-asking price.
Really enjoyed working with Sam. He sold our house quickly for a great price. He has great resources for readying your house or addressing any needs prior to listing. He has extensive experience with the negotiation process which went smoothly for us.
The best imaginable…it was an excellent experience! Sam is quite simply THE BEST! I would refer him to anyone who wants to work with a knowledgeable adult.
Exceptional- We met with three potential agents. One priced our condo at $378K. The second suggested $399K. Sam advised $445K. The condo sold in one day for $457,300. What more could we ask for?
Excellent! Sam is very knowledgeable on real estate issues and particularly excellent on the Queen Anne area. Sam’s expertise on preparing our house for sale was extremely valuable – the perfect combination of what to upgrade & what to leave as is. Sam’s availability to us, either in person or by phone, was always immediate. Sam has high energy and enthusiasm that resulted in a most successful result in the immediate selling of our home. We would whole-heartedly recommend him as an agent.
Sam is an incredible realtor. When my husband and I started the process of looking for homes and talking with realtors, Sam instantly stood out as what you hope for in a realtor, but often don’t find. Sam is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable about real estate basics as well as being an extremely savvy business man looking to find the best value for his clients. He listened to and respected the list of what we wanted in a house, while serving as a trusted partner voicing his informed perspective on which houses would be the best investment for us. When we were ready to put in an offer, Sam worked hard to ensure we understood every step and that we were presenting the best possible offer that balanced our guardrails and also what would be competitive. In the end, our offer was accepted over three others (one of which was all cash!). I attribute this to Sam’s expertise, relationships and willingness to go the extra mile for his clients. Even after our offer was accepted, Sam closely watched our loan approval and closing process to ensure we crossed the finish line smoothly. And now that we’re in our house, he has been a valuable (and responsive) asset for connections to plumbers, roofers, etc. I cannot recommend Sam highly enough!
Top notch! Sam is the BEST! Everything was thought of and handled with care and professionalism.
His sincerity was really remarkable.
Sam was there for me every step of the way through both transactions. Sam made every stressful time much more bearable. Of course, he is an excellent negotiator and strategist when it comes to real estate transactions. There is no one else I would want to have represent me!
Jeff was incredibly knowledgeable and wonderfully friendly! We were first time sellers and he made the process so easy. Anytime I had a question, he would explain everything in detail. He provided great recommendations for upgrades to make on our home that would appeal to potential buyers. I would highly recommend him and we plan to use his services again!
Professional, responsive, tailored. Sam is knowledgeable and communicative. He understood our needs and represented us well.
Top-notch on all counts. Thank you so much for everything. Will certainly be recommending you to friends in the future.
Jeff was so personable and professional and was a great guide for us, as we were new to Seattle. He was always there for us, day and night, if we had questions. He worked so hard for us, and his knowledge and experience secured us a great deal. I feel we were so lucky to have him in our corner as our agent. Really can’t say enough positive things about Jeff. He’s outstanding!
We used Sam in the purchase of our first home. If you’re looking for someone who knows almost everyone in the Queen Anne and Magnolia areas then he’s your guy. He helped us find a house that hadn’t come on the market, put an offer together and we never had to deal with the Seattle bidding wars.
Sam was great! He’s a very straightforward, no nonsense kind of person. He gave us honest opinions, which we appreciated. He is very experienced and knowledgeable and helped us craft a winning bid. I felt totally comfortable with him
Excellent! Sam was energetic, savvy, honest and strategic. He knew just how to get the highest price with the lowest investments. I would highly recommend him. Thank you!!
Superb! We weren’t expecting to buy a home so we were completely unprepared. Sam acted quickly and professionally to help us through the process to purchase our beautiful home – a home that had multiple offers on the table. In addition, he was able to sell our town home in this crazy market – AMAZING! Our experience was wonderful and we would recommend Queen Anne Real Estate to everyone we know! Sam and his team go above and beyond what’s expected. BRAVO!
Fabulous – Sam truly seemed like an expert and knew what we needed to do to sell our home!
