Best Real Estate Team in the PNW – We Won! (2025)

Each year, The Seattle Times invites the public to nominate and vote for their favorite businesses, pros, and places across the region. It’s a true people’s-choice program: community nominations lead to a final ballot, open voting follows (you can vote daily during the window), and winners are announced each September in The Seattle Times’ special issue and on BestinthePNW.com. Categories recognize only a small number of honorees (typically Gold/Silver/Bronze per category), which makes the field both competitive and scarce. votethepnw.com+2Best In The PNW+2
Awards are only as meaningful as the community behind them—and this one is powered by our community. Being voted Best Real Estate Team means the people who know our work best—our buyers and sellers—showed up and said, “these are the folks we trust.” With just a handful of winners recognized in each real estate category, the award signals uncommon consistency, client experience, and results in a market where that truly counts. bestinthepnw.com

Data-driven, strategy-first. From pricing and product-market fit to ADU/DADU rental math, we lead with analysis you can actually use—then translate it into action.
Full-stack listing prep. Construction, staging, copy, media, and launch timing all come together in a single, repeatable process that maximizes ROI.
Neighborhood fluency. Seattle isn’t “one market.” We live in the micro-trends—street by street—so our advice is tuned to your reality, not a citywide average.
Radical transparency. We’ll tell you what moves the needle (and what doesn’t), so you never waste time or money.
Make it fun. “Get Happy at Home” isn’t a slogan—it’s how we work. Buying or selling is a big chapter in your life; we keep it human, calm, and (yes) enjoyable.
Winning “Best in the PNW” is a milestone, but it’s also a promise: we’ll keep raising the bar. Expect sharper market reads, smarter listing launches, and the same responsive, roll-up-our-sleeves energy our clients mention again and again. If you’re thinking about a move—this season or next—let’s talk strategy early. A 15-minute call can save weeks later.
In everything that I do as your REALTOR®, I have one guiding principle in mind: To make certain that your home-buying or selling experience is a happy, successful, wonderful life experience! We build trust and security with our clients using knowledge and transparency.
