We are very thrilled to have purchased the house that is just right for us and Randy played a key role in this journey. We were looking for a few very specific things. For some reason, houses that checks all the boxes are somewhat rare, especially at our price point. Randy looked at countless of houses with us almost every weekend over the course of a few month. Randy showed us a few neighborhood he thought would be good fits for us. With his knowledge of surrounding suburbs of Seattle we were able to quickly narrow down to 2-3 specific neighborhoods. Randy has always been very patient with us and have been very supportive of us getting the house that is right for us instead of rushing us into something very close but not quite checking every single box. He was very communicative and always reply call / text / email within minutes. At the end we found the house we want. We were able to make just the right offer and got the house after 1 week on the market. From there, thanks to Randy's coordination, we were able to close on the house in a record speed of 20 days. After 1 month of living here, I am sure that the price we paid is about $100k - $200k lower than the sold prices of comparable houses nearby (South Bellevue). We'd like to thank Randy for this incredible journey and would recommend working with him on your next house hunt.

We needed to sell our house quickly and for top dollar-Noell made it happen. The process was seamless because of her experience and fabulous communication skills. I highly recommend Noell Sansom for all of your real estate needs! Whether you are buying or selling you will not regret choosing her as your agent.

We met Chase when the market entered the rollercoaster state, in which normal rules do not apply - so our opinion might be a bit subjective to the situation. We appreciated his patience in giving us directions and explaining rules of the game as the first time homebuyers. Chase never pushed us in any deal and always considered our interests, he also gave us space when it was reasonable and necessary. His advices we were always spot on as well. At the end - we got the house that we wanted, so huge thanks to him for helping us!

I know these reviews are vital to house hunters and house sellers. I use them. I have interacted with Windermere for more than 40 years as well as other real estate companies in the Puget Sound Area. Over the years, Windermere has seemed smarter and more precise, and their databases seemed more up to date. Our near-term objective was to sell our home at the pinnacle of the housing market before the floor of the market dropped.We hired Gary Mogg, a member of Windermeres Costello Team ~ a group of agents and assistants that bring to the table a 3D view of the Puget Sound housing market and, likewise, a 3D process of selling homes in that market. We needed to know what our house could reasonably sell for in this market. We found Gary to be candid.Gary was energized from the moment he walked into our house. He was focused on what elements of our house he could easily sell and what might be tough. To us he seemed very informed about how buyers think in this market. Gary made direct eye contact, he was spontaneous and unfiltered with his opinions, and he presented facts. Gary gave us a tour of our house from a buyers point of view; we heard things we liked and things that were disappointing. He estimated we could get $1M. We interviewed other agents who gave us numbers up to $1.25M. We signed up with Gary because his ideas appeared better thought out than other agents, his approach to selling seemed to us more creative, and he spoke to us about the integrity and ethical process of his methods.Gary organized staging, photography, and even the assistance of a handyman to fix a few things. His team covered the cost of those things. Gary was clear that in his opinion we needed to completely empty the house before his team should stage the house ~ he found us movers who could do the moving within a week! On the specific day that Gary thought would be best to go on the market, we were there. He orchestrated everything for us; we cooperated and followed his lead. Just before going on the MLS, he recommended we raise the price to $1.12M, which we did. In eight days, our home sold for $1.12M.Gary was terrific to work with. Everything he told us he would do he did. He talked to us almost every single day. He took our calls at all hours. I never felt placated. He was candid. We needed that.

It was a real pleasure working with Noell. As first time homebuyers, we weren't much familiar with the entire process, but Noell held our hands and made sure to explain each steps and answered all questions. Because of this, she made the entire process incredibly easy and stress-free. As a real estate agent, she is extremely patient and responsive, and most importantly, she is honest when it comes to sharing her opinions. She exactly knew our checklist and made sure that she was only suggesting houses that were a great fit for us. She is very professional and not only has extensive knowledge in real estate, but also has a great understanding of the market conditions. We are extremely grateful that we have met Noell and will reach out to her once we decide to buy another property in the future!

Noell was truly a gift to my husband and me throughout our first home buying experience, especially in this market! We happened to meet her at our very first open house and we clicked with her right away. She is warm and inviting, but savvy and extremely knowledgable, she will go to bat for you when it comes to negotiating and happily provides expertise while also teaching her clients, as this is a very overwhelming process. Noell is extremely responsive and truly goes above and beyond when it comes to providing knowledge and is just a fun person to be around- especially when the process becomes overwhelming. We truly found our dream home in an extremely competitive market because of the confidence Noell instilled in us, her work ethic, and her heart for her clients. THANK YOU NOELL!

Gary has been a delight to work with! This was our first time selling a house and we had minimal knowledge to say the least in terms of real estate. Gary was patient in explaining everything there was to the process and provided professional guidance, and truly unparalleled negotiating skills. We cannot thank him enough for making process of selling a house seamless and easy from start to finish. He was quick to respond to calls and emails and would pick up the phone even when the time might not have been convenient for him. Gary is a gem of a real estate agent and an all around great person to work with. If and when we have any future dealings in real estate, we know who to call!

Noell was super helpful and found me an excellent home. I started my house search while over seas, and she made it so easy. She kept my interests in mind and practically did the searching for me! She was able to communicate everything with me each step of the way, and made the entire process effortless.
