We have 2 options to options to preview homes for sale at this time:
Limited In-Person Showing - We follow strict COVID-19 protocols from the MLS and we are able to preview homes with our clients on a limited basis. Please reach out below to one of our buyer's agents with questions about this protocol.
LIVE Virtual Walkthrough - Our buyer's agents are happy to preview and video chat with you if you don't feel comfortable with an in-person showing. Please reach out below to one of our buyer's agents with questions about this virtual way to view a home.
Melissa was professional and helpful from the first day we were introduced. She helped us through many home visits before finding ones we were ready to put an offer in.
Through our whole home search, my wife and I felt like we were Melissa’s only clients and she made plenty of time for us in the evenings after work. Once we were ready to put in an offer, she helped us understand the steps/process clearly so we could be confident in our offer.
Despite some negligence on the bank’s side (missing our closing date twice), Melissa handled the situation positively and escalated the issue with the bank on our behalf! She took full responsibility of the complete transaction (even though the loan completion is the bank’s responsibility) and saw it through to completion. Cannot say enough good things about working with Rosie’s team, especially Melissa, and would recommend for anyone buying/selling a home in the Renton/Kent area!

What is a Real Estate Buyer’s Agent?
A buyer’s agent represents the buyer in a real estate transaction. Our agents start with a casual conversation about your wants and needs. We then craft a custom search for homes based on your criteria.
We also help you secure financing through a lender, show you homes, help you through the decision process, research properties for you, write and negotiate offers… and this is just the beginning!
Our buyer’s agents are full-service from start to finish. A lot of other agents “hand off” their buyers once they are under contract. Not us! We schedule your inspection and even attend it to make sure all your questions are answered. We also schedule and attend the appraisal to make sure there are no hiccups along the way.
And the best part of our job… handing over the keys!
How Much do I Pay a Buyer’s Agent?
Here is the best part… the seller pays the buyer’s agent out of their proceeds. You get all the benefits of our services and it doesn’t cost you anything!
Ok, Ready to Chat?
