• Without any reservations, I would highly recommend Dawn O'Connor as a real estate agent for any individual or family searching for the ideal home for their unique situation. I was looking for a particular style of home and she more than delivered - even though the market was very competitive. Dawn conducted an initial meeting with me and took copious notes regarding my specific needs in a single family home as well as my budgetary limitations. She was constantly reviewing the MLS to quickly find homes for sale in a very specific area. She did not waste my time with homes that were out of my price range, or did not meet my needs. As a diligent negotiator, she came up with a deal that worked for me and made the seller happy as well. There is nothing that escapes Dawn’s attention when it came to properties for sale in this area. I found Dawn to be a highly attentive agent, almost as if I was her only customer, although I knew that was not the case. She returned all phone calls and emails the same day. She is also highly personable with an engaging personality. Dawn was honest about my offers and provided great feedback. My transaction had its challenges but Dawn remained positive and helped push the deal through! I am pleased to recommend Dawn O'Connor to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. She will always be my first choice in real estate agents!

• “When Scott and the Hometown Advisor Team team listed our home, the market had significantly slowed down due to the mortgage crisis. They were very creative in generating interest in the home through their marketing techniques and left no stone un-turned with their unique reverse offer system. Ultimately, they were able to get a buyer financing who was previously turned down for a loan just so that they could buy our home for 100% of our asking price. Thank you Scott and the Hometown Advisor team!

• “After listing our home for sale on 2 separate occasions with a traditional real estate agent……we had 2 offers in 5 days and got 100.3% of our asking price!”

  Jack R. Bellevue

• “After listing our home for sale on 2 separate occasions with a traditional real estate agent, we had lost confidence that we would be able to move to a new home on our terms. After listing with Hometown Advisor Real Estate, we had 2 offers within 5 days. They helped us get 100.3% of market value in only 52 Days!”

• "Ed was wonderful to work with! He was very easy to talk with and has a knack for truly listening to you. I felt very confident with Ed because he quickly answered all of my questions, and even helped me with some referrals. His expertise as a realtor is unfathomable between his knowledge, connections, ability to listen, and responsiveness I recommend him to anyone looking for home."

  Val G. Seattle

• "I have recently had the pleasure of working with Ed Laine as a buyer. Ed's patience and thoroughness in finding me a condo was truly appreciated. Ed was always a phone call away answering all of my questions and keeping me aware of the process from start to closing. Ed had to work to find me a place that did not have any kind of assessment and was not in the start of a bidding war. He exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a Realtor I would highly recommend Ed Laine."

• "Ed was a magician at making the unthinkable work out in a relatively short period of time. We give Ed our highest recommendation. We unexpectedly found our dream home, met with Ed, quickly prepared our house to list and created a plan that many had their doubts about. Ed and his team held countless open houses, promoted our house on various websites and social media all while negotiating us a great deal on our dream property. It all worked out as well as could be imagined with a simultaneous close on both properties in a relatively short timeframe. This real estate transaction was the smoothest (and most complicated) that we have ever had. If you are looking to buy or sell give Ed a call. He makes the unthinkable a reality."

  Randi P. Bellevue

• "We wanted to make a major change in our life and move to Colorado. After listing with Hometown Advisor Real Estate, we had 2 offers within 5 days. They helped us get 100.3% of market value in only 52 Days!”

• I met my agent at an open house one day on a random shopping trip. Her professional presentation and gentle nature gave me the confidence to contact her for serious representation. What a wonderful outcome! Thank you Tina!

• Justin was professional, accessible and organized. He made himself available to us when we were flying in from out of town. He set up our property in a way that sold the first day it was listed. He got to know us and found what we were looking for. He always returned phone calls, emails and text messages throughout the buying and selling of our property. I would contact him again for my real estate needs. Thank you

• We have done business with John for years and highly recommend his services....John Brink started with evaluating our newly remodeled home for price. He staged our house providing some of the materials himself and even performed some minor repairs himself. Then he discussed a marketing plan and strategy for our house taking into account our time horizon and customer finance profile we prefer. I was pleased to see this included more than a MLS listing. The sign posted was as noticeable as could be short of a billboard and I never found the flyer box to be empty. John followed up on every viewing and provided updates in a manner that did not interfere with my busy schedule. He provided us with concrete suggestions on improvements and alterations derived from this feedback. When it came time to deal with a buyer negotiation, He made sure he understood our position so that he could properly negotiate. John excelled at determining actual buyer desires from negotiating ploys, throughout the process of price, inspection, 35R closing In our case John fully used his experience in construction remodeling and rentals . We have done business with him for years and highly recommend his services.

• They have earned a customer for life! Hometown Advisor Real Estate really knows what they are doing and specifically my agent Breanna. She helped me from end to end to get my first house.

• Being a first time home buyer, Dale made the process very easy and patiently helped answer any questions I had. He was always very quick to respond to text messages and was readily available to show me a new home/condo I found. What really stood out was his ability to tell the build quality of a structure and his attention to detail, such as spotting areas where rainfall was not draining properly. This potentially saved from huge headaches in the future! Most importantly, he looked out for my best interest by letting me know when to err on the side of caution even on homes I had initial interest in. I definitely will be recommending him to anyone looking to buy a home.

• Mary is a very knowledgeable agent. Extremely helpful with the process of getting your home ready for sale. She is always there lending a hand whether its cleaning, or taking things to the dump. She isn't pushy, but gives you the facts and lets you make your own decisions. A pleasure to work with. Mary has worked in the industry for 20+ years, and has the knowledge and experience to get the job done professionally.

  Tori W. Woodinville

• I had never heard of John Brink. After trying to get response and support from other realtors to no avail... I finally posted an inquiry on Zillow and was surprised at how promptly John responded and made time to come meet with me the very next day. Upon arrival he was prepared, had a strategy and tactical plan to help me market and sell two properties. He followed through on every single detail that he committed to without fail and we reached our agreed upon goals. John is an honest ethical professional, he has my business for life. I encourage you to give him an opportunity - you won't be disappointed.

• Fantastic local knowledge and deep expertise, Ed was great at leading me (and educating me) through the entire process, as well as managing my expectations along the way.
