Rosie Rourke along with her team offer the best selling experience you could ever hope for. We had wanted to move for about four years and were stuck with nothing to show for our efforts. Within a month and a half after meeting Rosie, we had sold our house for well over asking price and made an offer on our dream property that will close in a few days. She is in the upper 1% of real estate agents because she is an absolute professional who knows what she is doing, and she has a team of people working with her to ensure a smooth and a quick process for clients. There is not one problem we had for which she did not have an answer or a resource at her fingertips. She is extremely busy, for good reason, but she always responds personally and takes the time to get to know her clients. She believed in us and in our house. We will be forever grateful that we had Rosie, the best realtor ever, to help us move into the next chapter of our lives.

  Colleen was an absolute pleasure to work with! She went above and beyond to answer questions I had and made sure I had all the information I needed. She was always very responsive, flexible, and available. 2019 - edit We LOVE Colleen! This is the second house that she has helped us buy and we would never use anyone else. She is easy going, but extremely communicative and easy to get in touch with, always available and willing to help through the inevitable questions and concerns that arise while house hunting & the escrow process. Colleen always follows up on what she says she is going to do. We appreciate her!

  We wanted somebody that was responsive. That is exactly what we got! It was a wonderful experience for us with the Rosie Rourke group. Colleen was amazing and we found the perfect home for us.

  I had an awesome experience buying a home as my real estate agent made it such an easy process. She was professional, friendly, responsive to my calls and text messages, and very knowledgeable about the housing market. She was not pushy nor did she try to show me homes above what I could afford. The process from start to finish was very smooth. I would definitely recommend Colleen Linder of the Rosie Rourke team to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

  Colleen's knowledge of the area is so outstanding! We felt we were in great hands with her as our agent. She was always very responsive and kept us updated throughout the entire process! Our home buying experience was great and we credit that to Colleen!

  Melissa did a great job listing my home and selling it quickly. The whole process was completely painless. She and her team use a messaging app and online signing program to keep me updated through the whole process. Once I signed the initial paperwork agreeing to have her list the house, she took it and ran. I had a few things come up on the inspection to address, and she helped me find a contractor, met him for an estimate and arranged the work. It was a quick and painless process for me. I was never left wondering what was going on or where we were in the whole process. My house sold in 36 hours and there was another buyer interested if the first fell through. I would use her again in a heartbeat.

  Rosie and her team were incredible! They guided our every decision and worked hard to complete the sale. Rosie is an expert and especially knows the Fairwood neighborhood. I would highly recommend the Rosie Rourke Team for listing and selling your home!

  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.

  Colleen Linder (buyer's agent) really listened to our needs for a new home, and found us the perfect fit. I had been expecting a very long search, given our specific asks. But with Colleen's sharp eye and diligence, she was able to pinpoint a house that had everything we needed, despite its listing not mentioning features that would have naturally popped it up in our search criteria. I still don't know how she did it! In summary we were very happy with the results, and it's all thanks to Colleen.

  Rosie Rourke and her staff have the greatest real estate services we could have ever imagined. Their expertise is great. Their support of their clients could not be better. Their literature, photos of your home will be superb. They check on you ALL the time - you don't have to phone them to ask, they are there for you - all of her staff. They are all so good at what they do. The referrals they were able to supply us were topnotch- ALL of them. We didn't have to dig around to try to find somebody to do all the things we needed done because Rosie always came up with someone who did a great job. The house was a terrible wreck - renters had destroyed everything and more - took care of nothing.....I was a wreck when we met Rosie because we were facing weeks - and it turned out to be months of work WE did plus all the contractors we got thru Rosie. Even her emotional support was fabulous. We had a realtor pressuring us to accept a low ball bid and she stuff by us and had to tell him NO 3-4 times........she nailed the asking price, she nailed the exact amount of time it would take to sell - two weeks.......We will just remember her as the best in her field. You will get way more than you imagine when you hire Rosie and her team.

  Rosie is an expert in what she’s doing. She helped us bought and sold our house in Renton. Both processes were quick and easy. She’s very friendly and easy to work with.

  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!

  My wife and I just recently purchased our very first home here in Washington State and we couldn't have done it without the help of Colleen and the Rosie Rourke team. Colleen was there for us every step of the way and we are very grateful that we had her guidance throughout the whole process. Each time we had a question, she responded to us promptly and was very easy to reach in all forms of communication. I have to admit, it's hard to find someone like that nowadays. Colleen also went above and beyond to help us find a reputable contactor around the area for repairs even after we had closed on the house. I can definitely say that she made everything effortless for us. So if you are in the market to purchase a home or thinking about selling your current home, Colleen and the Rosie Rourke team will be there to help you and you won't be disappointed.

  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.

  The Rosie Rourke team did a fabulous job in helping me to sell my condominium. Their extensive knowledge of the Fairwood area in Renton, was key in getting the buyers through the door to view the property. I felt that the entire team was there for me whenever I had a question, no matter what the issue was. They use a team strategy to guide any seller through the daunting process of selling a home. I Highly recommend the Rosie Rourke team with John L Scott whether you are buying or selling! Five stars all around!

  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!

  It was great to work with Rosie Rourke and her team! They were very responsive to questions, helped us every step of the way, and stood by their work. When an understandable mistake was made, Rosie did everything she could to make it right and to make sure I was satisfied. She was very knowledgeable about the area, made sure my house would look appealing to buyers, and priced the sale to generate maximum interest. Even after the sale, she is there to answer any questions that came up. I would highly recommend Rosie Rourke for all your real estate needs!

  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.

  Rosie and her team took the stress out of selling my fathers home. Her team was exceptional especially when repairs needed to be done. Her team took care of making the appointments, scheduling and saved me having to take time away from work to meet contractors. Rosie and her team are “Customer Service” Professionals at what they do to taking care of “Everything “ you could think of. You could get another Real Estate agent but you will not receive the “Extra” attention to every detail like Rosie and her team provide. Outstanding is all I can say, thank you Rosie and team, can’t thank you enough for providing me and my wife with True Customer Service !!!!

  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!
