We couldn't be happier with the job Melissa did to help us find and purchase our new home! She's hugely knowledgeable of the market in Renton and did a great job helping us narrow down our search and navigate our way through the purchasing process. We were living in a different city while we were looking, and Melissa did a ton of work to ensure that when we did travel to the city that we were there to look at properties that matched our wants and needs. We have nothing buy great things to say about Melissa, and we recommend her wholeheartedly!

  This is an amazing team, they have incredible knowledge and keep their clients informed every step of the way. I have already referred other people to them and would do it again in a heartbeat!

  You may read reviews of/from others saying their agent was amazing and they recommend them. I will say something different. I say the whole Rosie team are the type of agent(s) most people want and what most should want. First off they really listened to us and answered our questions. Rosie and Liz backed up their answers with statistics and experience knowledge gained. Karen was our buyer agent and what set her apart was her ability to really understand what our family needed and she kept that top of mind when looking for homes. She really embraced our children and was a joy to work with. The team provided guidance on what was really needed to get our house market-ready, paying attention to what will work best. The team really paid attention to the right details, communicated clearly, and worked really stinking hard. Even if you are not sure about buying/selling, give them a call. We love Rosie and her whole team!

  It was our first time buying a home and we had Melissa Hudson as our agent. She was very informative and always there for our many requests during the process, whether it be meeting after work to look at a property the last minute or making an offer late at night. We did have the opportunity to meet Rosie herself to look at a couple homes the one and only time Melissa was unavailable, she made us feel right at home even though she was just filling in. In the end we found the home we wanted and feel like we had the best team behind us to make it possible!

  Awesome job! The entire team was working with us. Communication was fantastic, highly recommend Rosie and team.

  We worked with Melissa on the Rosie Rourke team and we couldn't have been happier with Melissa. Not only was she helpful, but she really made sure she learned our needs and only wanted to help however she could. It was also amazing to have the power of the entire Rosie team behind Melissa too. We felt very well taken care of and weren't once pressured into anything.

  Colleen and her team were amazing!! She has so much knowledge of the area we were looking at. She was so patient and persistent with us, we were kind of picky and had a lot of needs we wanted in our next home and she completely understood and just kept at it! I would definitely go with her and her team again and recommend them a hundred times over, and have recommended them to people already!

  When my husband and I decided to buy another home we met Melissa. We had an idea of what we wanted and Melissa listened as we looked at properties. Melissa found the perfect property, put our offer together and submitted it in a few hours. The offer was accepted and we had the keys in our hands in 18 days. If you want to work with a realtor who listens, knows the area, has proven skills in negotiation I would highly recommend calling Melissa Hudson.

  We worked with Karen Hake to find and purchase our first home. Throughout the process Karen was quick to respond, attentive to what we were looking for, and always made herself available for us when we wanted to view a house. Buying a home can be extremely stressful but Karen helped to make the process enjoyable and easy for us as first time home buyers. I believe we got our home due to Karen's willingness to work hard (and sometimes late into the evening) for us. Karen is a great agent and I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a house. If you are looking in the Renton area her knowledge of the neighborhoods is priceless. Finally, I feel she is the perfect agent for first time home buyers as she was always happy to explain and walk us through anything we needed help with!

  Rosie and her team handled the sale of our home with knowledge, expertise and great customer service!! They went beyond what would be expected to make sure everyone was informed at all stages of the sale! The personal care they put in makes you know she has everyone's best interest at heart! I thank Rosie and her team for all the extra steps they took to make the sale happen!! Thank You!

  Melissa was great to work with and was very helpful through the entire process. With it being my wife and I's first home we definitely had a lot of questions. She was able to not only answer everything, but also kept us at ease through a very large purchase which can be very stressful. We are very grateful we had Melissa on our side through our purchase and would recommend her to anyone.

  Rosie Rourkes Team w/ Melissa Hudson provide a positive, motivating & excellent experience through all facets of our home sale. They don't talk about integrity and quality because they strive for nothing less.

  My spouse and I worked with Melissa Hudson for nearly a year. As first time buyers we had many questions. Melissa was honest with her answers and could find out anything she didn't know. It took a long time to find something that worked in our range. There was never any pressure from Melissa and she was always very positive. She was also extremely punctual and professional. I would recommend her to my Mother, and hopefully we will have the pleasure of purchasing any future properties with Melissa's help.

  I have used the Rosie Rourke team to buy and sell homes, always with great success. Most recently, to purchase a home in Tacoma with buyers agent Colleen Linder. Colleen is a fantastic buyers agent with great communication and negotiating skills. She takes the time to understand what her clients want. Her knowledge of the local Real Estate market is second to none.

  Rosie and her team really knew what they were doing and ALSO anticipated what I would need before I even asked for it. They were personable, communicative, polite, and available whenever I had a question. They presented the details on my home very professionally before listing and then took the time to make sure my home was prepared for market and also advertised to the best it could be. Because of this I sold within only a couple weeks. Patience would also be the word that I would use to describe the process of finding a new home. I must have looked at over 30 homes before finding the right one, and they continued to support me and offer suggestions as I looked. Without a doubt, I will be working with Rosie again and would recommend her team to anyone in the area looking to sell or buy a home.

  Rosie Rourke's team helped me sell my old house and buy my new house. I dealt most often with Rosie, Colleen and Sandie, but the entire team was used for my transactions. They were excellent in every way, communication was great, and having a whole team working my houses meant constant responsiveness. Here are some example details of what they did for me: They called to tell me my offer had been accepted - on a house that I had talked myself into liking, but no longer wanted, having just found my dream house in a brand new listing minutes earlier. When I told them this, they did not get mad at all. They found a legitimate way to rescind my offer on that house, got me in to view the dream house within 2 hours of when it went online. They then hosted a last minute open house to find a buyer for my old house so we could put in a non-contingent offer on my dream house, which had a deadline for offers only 3 days away. They sold my house at that open house the next day. Thru phone, email, fax, driving, they tirelessly worked to speed up the timing on my old house sale so that the dream house offer could, in fact, go in non-contingent with an entire 10 minutes to spare before the deadline. I now live in that dream house and LOVE IT. They chased down everything when my old house closing was delayed by the buyers' VA mortgage company, including informing the buyers' agent of the delay, which she didn't even know about. When I was finishing the last 2 hours of cleaning my old house before handing over the keys, the gas fireplace suddenly stopped working. First I panicked, then I called the team, and they had a handyman over to fix it in 45 minutes so the closing wouldn't be delayed. They were excellent at advising on which repairs and upgrades to make to my old house while minimizing my costs. Twice they talked me out of spending $$ on a new bathroom vanity, told me to just paint the bathroom instead. They were right. They wanted me to keep that money to spend in my dream house. They gave good advice on pricing for offers on new houses and listing price for my old house. They had a professional photographer take the pictures for my old house listing, to maximize interest. They were friendly and professional throughout. I will use ONLY the Rourke Team for any future real estate needs and recommend them VERY HIGHLY.

  Karen Hake helped us find our home in West Seattle and guided us through a tricky multiple offers situation. We did a whirlwind few days of house hunting and Karen was always prepared and responsive. She even had treats and snacks for our toddler! We would highly recommend her — everything went very smoothly and she was a pleasure to work with!

  Colleen helped us successfully navigate a tricky home purchase on a short timeline. Her experience and communication skills helped us avoid many pitfalls and delays. I wish everyone I worked with communicated as well as Colleen. Colleen's knowledge and diligence allowed us to close on schedule against the odds. Highly recommended!

  You just can’t argue with the results. Rosie and her team handled every aspect of our sale with sure handedness. She guided me through some tough repair decisions that paid off splendidly in the end. Once repairs were done, staging, listing, showing and paperwork was a breeze, all expertly arranged for a quick sale at a price far exceeding my best hope.

  Rosie and her team provided both caring and expert service to my grandfather and me during the sale of his home in Fairwood. Rosie was highly accessible and responsive and guided us through the process with ease. We were thrilled with the outcome (and the speed of the sale), and we highly recommend Rosie and her team to others.
