Dane Andersen

I worked with Dane Andersen who is part of this amazing team, both as a buyer and seller. As an experienced buyer and seller, I can not praise Dane enough for his dedication and work ethic. He always kept me updated with activities of showings and he personally held many open houses during this most current sales contract. During the time my home was on the market, I was very busy with work and Dane made the whole transaction a breeze. Whether you're looking to buy or sell, you can put your trust in Dane. He will go above and beyond your expectations!

I am so happy that Dane Andersen at Laura Papritz team got my Seattle condo sold so fast! He was super communicative and helpful throughout the whole process. I had already bought a new condo and needed to go down to 1 mortgage and he got my condo listed in sold in all total less than 2 months. I had been worried because the condo in Seattle was small and not a good view, but he had it staged beautifully and was super attentive to it, and it sold right away. Thank you!! I would highly recommend Dane Andersen if you need a real estate agent!! He made the whole process so easy!

My daughter recommended her friend Dane Andersen to be my agent and I'm so glad she did! She told me he would be honest and transparent, and he was all of that and more. He helped me sort through my priorities, was mindful of my budget, and never made me feel like I was anything but a special client. Dane talked me through the difficult disappointing showings and losing two bids. He followed through with every loose end and was helpful in practical ways, such as getting an inspector out within days. The listing agent came by my house to get the lock box and told me what a delight Dane had been for her to work with. "There aren't many I would like to work with again, or would recommend to someone, but he's both!' Dane has become my friend and I couldn't be more grateful.

Dane is a wonderful agent. We'd never sold a house before, and it went incredibly well. He helped us get everything ready, fronted the cost for the painters, got us some awesome stagers, picked out the best color of paint for the walls, and in general made our house fantastic. We did incredibly well on the sale, and he more than earned every penny of his commission. I absolutely recommend him with no reservations. 5 Stars!

I was out of state during the sale of my condo and Dane went the extra mile for sure. He oversaw electrical and plumbing and also did some painting himself. My condo was located in a really busy city area where parking is difficult and Dane never hesitated. I had worked with Dane at the theatre in the past so knew that he is a good and reliable person. When people asked if I was worried about selling my condo during this unpredictable covid time I always said no. I knew I didn't need to worry as Dane would handle it and he did.

We're so thrilled that we worked with Dane to purchase our first home! In the midst of the crazy Seattle housing market. he was incredibly responsive to any questions/requests we had, yet no interaction ever felt the least bit rushed, frantic, or "business-y." Dane's warm, laid-back, and optimistic attitude kept us anchored during the stressful home-buying process. His rapport with other agents is great, and the connections he's built within the real estate community were apparent. With Dane's help, we were able to purchase a home in exactly the kind of neighborhood we were looking for. His readiness to view the home with us ASAP and to help submit a strong offer were key to our becoming first-time homeowners. We've recommended Dane to numerous friends because he was the perfect ally for us in our search. He makes what can be an intimidating process run smoothly, and he is 100% in your corner the entire time-always ready to help, counsel, or just offer some friendly encouragement.

Dane was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all questions for first time home buyers. He was incredibly responsive and very flexible to show houses on short notice due to the fast nature of the current home buying environment (offers being made in just two days post). He was also helpful in creating competitive offers. Would work with him again in the future and highly recommend to any future buyers.

Dane is the very best! I'll just start by saying that it feels like he's an old family friend, even though we've only known him a few months. He's so easy going, knowledgeable, funny and we felt so supported during the whole home buying process. Dane took special care to remember key things about our family (like our daughter's 5th birthday) and took the time to send her a card. He's a really good guy. He's fairly new to real estate, but you wouldn't know it. Our family purchased and sold a home in California and worked with two different realtors who had been in the business for 30+ years and were fantastic to work with. Dane was on par and right up there with them, best of the best, and we're so glad we picked him as our realtor when we came to Washington. For some background, our family was looking to relocate from California to Washington during the pandemic and we knew we wanted a home on some land. We weren't afraid of renovations and even considered new construction, but our real goal was to find the perfect piece of land to call our forever home. Dane toured all of Western Washington with us as we searched for the right fit. He helped us find new/fresh listings after we felt like we had seen everything Zillow had to offer and he went deep into the throws of land ownership, as we all learned more than we ever wanted to know about protected gophers and federal designated wetlands. He followed all the COVID guidelines, which we so appreciated since we were house hunting with our two young daughters. Ultimately, we found an amazing house on an amazing piece of land that felt like home. Dane expertly guided us through the escrow process and helped us make sure all the pieces moved forward and that we felt comfortable at each decision point. He negotiated coverage of certain costs and we felt like we got a really fair deal on the house when all was said and done, which was definitely a silver lining while purchasing during a time where homes were going for well over asking price. All I can say is Dane is great and you don't need to look any further for a realtor. We've already recommended him to friends and family who are considering the move to the PNW. 10/10!
