Julee helped us to sell our house in Shoreline. She was extremely helpful in guiding us on the market and pricing so that our house sold quickly. Julee aways made herself available for our questions and stayed on top of everything all the way through the process. Her service level went way beyond expectations and were so thankful for her.

I met Julee via Zillow inquiry of a listing in Mill Creek - eager for quick purchase to get settled after messy divorce and family separation. She handled my needs with utmost professionalism and connected me to property in Green Lake that I never would have thought to consider but has turned out to be just the ideal fit for my now solo life. I appreciated her thorough attention to detail and her impeccable management of light renovation of studio before occupancy - selecting all flooring and paint candidates and making whole thing happen with great crew on reasonable budget. Last but not least she did great job managing the co-op that the studio is part of - ensuring no surprises on either side and hopefully creating great long term matches :)

Lia was very professional. She was very responsive and honest with me. She was patient with me in touring a ton of homes before I decided about what I wanted. She also negotiated a good deal with the seller and got about 90% of the things I wanted to be accepted by the seller even though it was a seller's market. What I appreciated most what her honesty about the locations and the questions I asked.

Working with Julee on our first home purchase was a great experience. Early on, we appreciated how proactive she was with sending us listings based on our requirements in a house - it kept us on our toes. Julee was quick with scheduling appointments for any houses that we wanted to take a look at, she also accommodated many last minute additions to the list of houses. Throughout the process, she has been excellent at communicating updates with all parties involved and activities that needed to be done. When we would look at houses, Julee was very attentive and made sure to point out things, good/bad in the house that we as first time home buyers may miss. She is knowledgeable about all the areas we were looking at in Snohomish county, furthermore, being a local from the area, she has historical context of how neighborhoods and homes have evolved throughout the years - so is able to provide input regarding things like materials used in older homes, layouts and quirks of building styles from different years. Looking forward to staying connected after closing and working together on any future projects :) I highly recommend working with Julee and her team.

Julee was so wonderful with both helping us buy our home 4 years ago and then sell it most recently. We highly recommend using her for your real estate needs!

Julee helped us buy our first ever home. Her experience in real estate really shows.. in our time looking for houses in this crazy market her predictions about all the houses we considered were spot on! She is very understanding and supportive, buying a house can be a stressful process and she made it easy, smooth and prioritized our peace of mind over anything else.Would highly recommend her!

Mary and her team were wonderful to work with in selling our home. They expertly listed, staged and sold our home in a relatively short amount of time, far exceeding our expectations.

A friend recommended Julee as a seller's agent, and I'm glad they did.My house needed a *lot* of work to get top dollar. Julee quickly put me in touch with affordable and professional contractors (plumbers, painters, carpeting, masons). She provided good advice on which repairs would be the most likely to increase the sales price, including specific help with things like paint colors, good options for lighting and faucets, and so forth. $20K in careful repairs likely increased the sales price by 80K or more.When it came time, Julee took care of everything needed to sell the house; a light staging of the house, marketing the house, handling the open house. As a result, I received multiple offers and was able to get a large amount of money for the house, more than I expected.I'll happily recommend Julee to friends/family in the future.

Mary knows the market. She knew exactly how much to list our home knowing it would be a bidding war. We got top dollar for our home. Sold in just a week. She and Julee staged it so nice, too, and helped us by letting us know what to upgrade/fix in the house prior to going on the market. Highly recommend!

In July of 2021, I found a property in Grays Harbor County that I knew was to become my new "what's next?".In the fall of 2017, I suffered a career ending back injury that had me unsure as to my future. One thing I knew was that it was time for a change. I had lived in N Seattle for all of my 50+ years and I was ready for something else.That's when I found the property. I called Julee and asked, "there's a property down here I want to buy. What do I do?" Julee asked for the address, and we hung up. She did the rest.I decided I was going to buy the property and build my "happily ever after" on it, which meant I had a house in Seattle to sell.A house that I had lived in for 25 years. A house that was in no way ready to put on the market.Well, that's when Julee truly shone bright like the star she is.I saw Julee and Mary's ad yesterday where they state that there are 10 things to think about when selling a home. Step one, call them. Steps 2-10, they'll do the rest. That is truly how it felt.As we began to look at what my house would need, I was pretty overwhelmed and I began to realize that the more I gave Julee the reigns, the better off I'd be.She knew exactly what had to be done and she directed the contractors to take care of what was needed.Through Julee's care, attention to detail, and expert knowledge of what it takes to get an old house ready for market, we pulled it off.Julee whipped my house and yard into shape and my house sold much faster than I had expected.Most importantly, the new buyer wrote me a letter telling me how darling she thought the house was and how excited she was to live there. She wrote such a nice, glowing letter of what she thought of my house.Julee made that possible. I'm moving forward to a new phase in my life, and a huge part of why I've made it here is because 9 months ago, I called Julee and asked for some advice.I took step 1.I called Julee and Mary.They did the rest.I will be forever grateful for their efforts in getting me to where I am.
