Brian Hayter

Brian was the perfect agent for us. His knowledge of Snohomish county helped us make an initial offer that got us under contract. He was effective in negotiating once we had our inspection and got us the best deal possible. You can trust Brian to be your advocate through your home buying journey.

The realtor we were working with to sell our home in the Seattle area highly recommended Brian Hayter to find us a home since he had more expertise in Snohomish County and she thought very highly of him. So glad we found Brian! He was patient, helpful and he found our dream home in spite of the fact my husband and I had very different ideas and a challenging wish list. Brian's strongest skill was negotiating. Once we found our dream home Brian helped us close the deal. He found out what was important to the sellers and we worked together to make the deal attractive to all involved. Brian's great communication and positive nature made this a really positive experience. We definitely recommend Brian Hayter and Windermere Real Estate.

Brian was a close neighbor of ours for years! We loved watching his family grow and when he moved, it was hard to see them go! His business was very successful and when we saw that, we knew we wanted him to be our realtor. Years later, it was our time to sell. We kept in contact with Brian and with the market heading to a possible buyers market, he agreed we should sell sooner than later. Brian was always available by phone. If I didn't reach him personally, I left a message and he would promptly call me back. He was very knowledgeable about the selling market in our area, always sending us updates and getting house comparisons. He also clued us into what needed to be done, to make our house "move in ready", for the buyer. We really appreciated his expertise and his care to get the best price for our house! Brian will always be our forever friend!

Brian did an outstanding job for us on our recent home purchase in Shoreline. He is knowledgeable of the area and came up with several properties based on our requirements. Even though the process took several months in a rapidly changing real estate market, Brian was always quick to respond to inquiries and respectful of our decisions. As seasoned home buyers who have worked with many different realtors, Brian stands out as an accomplished professional who we would not hesitate to recommend.

We enjoyed working with Brian. He successfully helped us win our first and only bid and close on a home very quickly. He was fast to respond to questions and very friendly. He was able to get us a discount during a slight housing market correction, which is helpful.

Brian was a perfect match for what we were looking for in a realtor. Early in the process he spent the time to understand our needs and wants in our new home and helped us refine our search. His approach is patient and flexible and we never felt pressured to make an offer on a home that wasn't quite right or that exceeded our budget. We also appreciated his high level of service and communication. When it came to the offer stage, he advised us on how to make a competitive offer, but still protect our interests. Overall, we were very pleased with the speed and smoothness of our new home purchase and know we couldn't have done it without him. We highly recommend Brian to anyone looking for a realtor!

Brian is your agent! Whether buying or selling a home (which he did both for me), he knows how to navigate today's tricky market. While trying to buy a home under duress, he reminded me of the things which were most important that we had reviewed prior to the search. It allowed me to step back and realize that while the house was great - it did not fulfill my long term goals. Though frustrated that we did not secure a home yet, Brian reinsured us that we would find the correct home and worked with us everyday to make it happen. And believe me, this was not easy as we lived on an island and could not keep to a schedule with how the ferries were running (or I should say not!). But there was Brian - whenever we needed him to look at a house, no matter what day.When we did find the correct house, he helped us through negotiations even when the house had multiple offers. He not only got us the winning bid, he was able to determine a way to get a house inspection (for our peace of mind) when home inspections were not being allowed with multiple offers. This is when I knew Brian had skill sets way beyond most agents. Brian is pleasure to work with while searching or selling your home, his real talent is in his negotiations while keeping you informed throughout the process. He has been referred multiple times within our family and friends for very successful transactions.

Brian has helped our family with three real estate transactions in the last few years. He has helped us sell two of our properties in Seattle proper and also with the purchase of a rental property in south Snohomish County. With every transaction, Brian is there with you every step of the way to ensure a smooth closing. On our most recent transaction in October 2021, Brian represented us as the seller. On the day of reviewing offers for the property, Brian disclosed that one of the offers was submitted by another agent in the same office as himself, where he would have received an additional commission as a kick back if we accepted said offer. The offer was very competitive but his advice was to accept an alternative offer of the same price but one where the terms of the release of the earnest money was just a tad bit better, even though this would have resulted with him receiving less money on the transaction. This goes to show Brian's integrity and always having our best interest in mind first and foremost. When we're in the market to purchase or sell another property, Brian will always be the first person that I call.

Brian is an excellent real estate professional and I would recommend him highly. My husband and I worked with Brian earlier this year to buy our new home. We looked for nearly six months in an incredibly tough market. Brian was extremely patient with us throughout this process and never made us feel rushed or pressured into anything. We trusted that he had our best interests in mind throughout the process. He was also very clever during this process and we felt he really went above and beyond. He's the perfect blend of nice and kind but also assertive and tough when he needs to be. Because of Brian's patience and hard work we found our dream home and we could not be happier. Thank you, Brian!
