About Jon Bye

Since the housing market began its slow recovery in 2008, his team has seen their best revenues every year since. Five years after beginning the momentum, John L. Scott (JLS) recognized Jon Bye & Associates in their Chairman's Circle in 2013 and 2014. For the past four years, JLS has ranked the team within the top one percent of agents. Since 2004, JBA has closed more than $291 million in transactions, helping more than 960 families achieve their housing goals and find their perfect homes. Everyone remembers the first house they bought. It can be a terrifying plunge, and in 2003, after debating between renting or buying, Jon was guided by his family to become a homeowner. He found his own home purchasing experience vastly rewarding and set out to help others navigate homeownership and real estate investing. During this journey, he fell in love with the process and left his college job as an auto parts wholesale seller to work as a realtor's assistant for his agent. After 18 months spent learning the ins and outs of the industry, Jon was ready to take control of his own destiny and open his own fledgling office in 2005. While Seattle's reputation as a hub for technology innovation expanded, Jon preempted the city's urban sprawl and set his sights on the South Puget Sound. After a few lucrative years of smooth sailing in a healthy market, our office witnessed the 2007 housing bubble burst. Jon incurred debt by investing in several more homes beforehand and climbed out of debt slowly but steadily. After successfully transitioning from being in the red to the black in 2011, Jon has taken it upon himself to learn from the market's crash and hasn't incurred debt since. Growing and expanding a business is all about the process, through which Jon learned when to surrender and confide in his team. Hiring the team has been an intimidating but rewarding process, in turn, creating what Jon describes as both a driving force and responsibility. We are a team of real estate professionals who pride themselves on customer satisfaction and making each house hunting or listing experience as seamless as possible. We are firm believers in a no-pressure sales environment. Our positive attitudes resonate with customers at any price point.

Jon Bye and his crew where so incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in our home buying experience. I cannot recommend them enough. They were super responsive when we had questions, and often had answers before I even thought to ask. We found the perfect home, no time flat.

Jon Bye's Team truly cares about the wellbeing of their customers. Lauwana was so patient with me as I looked for 3 months for the right home to buy, even when I changed my mind about what I was searching for. Never in the process did I feel pressured and everyone was very quick to respond to all my questions and needs. I was fully supported every step of the way. They even connected me with a mortgage lender, Title company, contractor and insurance agent that I could trust. I am so grateful and happy I chose to work with Jon Bye's team and Lauwana. They made the process of buying much easier than the last time I bought a home. I definitely will recommend them to my friends and family if they need to buy or sell.

We are extremely pleased with the incredible level of service we received from our Real Estate Agent David Pannen with Jon Bye & Associates. David handled the sale of our waterfront home in Gig Harbor as well as the purchase of a new home. He accomplished that with such professionalism and attention to detail we knew we were in good hands from the beginning. This was our 10th Real Estate buying and selling experience so we are well aware how overwhelming the process can be. David and his entire team at Jon Bye were amazing every step of the way. We met David on a rainy Sunday afternoon working a Real Estate open house. He mentioned he was new to Real Estate sales but it was evident from our conversation that he was not new business! We knew this guy had something special. Engaging and smart yet honest, a real go-getter! He was the kind of Agent you want in your corner. One of Davids best and we believe essential qualities is his follow through, he was always available and communicated how each part of the process would move forward. He also understood and had a real understanding of the housing market in our area, which allowed us to get an incredible deal that exceeded our expectations! Another benefit to choosing him was that he was backed by Jon Bye & Associates. Beyond their expertise and professionalism, the team was friendly, qualified and very communicative throughout the entire buying and selling process. They answered all our questions with in-depth explanations, kept us up to date and informed regularly while ensuring we fully understood the process. We are so thankful we chose David Pannen with Jon Bye & Associates for our Real Estate needs. His business insight, savvy, and ability to get the job done no matter the circumstance made an otherwise stressful event a smooth and successful process. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch Real Estate service!

Jon and his team were more that helpful through this process of buying a home. I was thoroughly impressed with how their team functions and coordinates from inception to close and how easy it was for me. I recommend them for anyone in the Seattle/Tacoma area and beyond!
