Professional, Personalized, Efficient and Communicative

This letter is being written to not only express a commendation in regards to Sammamish Realty for their true professionalism and personalized service, but to offer a sincere and heartfelt recommendation.   For any potential seller of real estate that desires the aforementioned attributes in a neighborhood real estate company combined with great communication, a sense of urgency and keen attention to detail; one would need to look no further than Scott and Kim Bobson at Sammamish Realty.   I first met Scott and Kim nearly 18 months ago when my family was in need of selling our Sammamish home due to a career transfer to Colorado. After being on the market for a few weeks (in the valley of the recession), we were presented with an offer to rent our home for 12-14 months – an offer we could not refuse. Not only did Scott and Kim accept our decision in a very positive manner, but they helped to facilitate the entire leasing of our home. A short time ago, our renters moved out of our home and I immediately turned to Sammamish Realty. Within 48 hours of my call to Scott, our home was listed, on the market and the sign was in the yard. Within five (5) days, we received competing offers (above current market value) and we were under contract.   Need I say more?   Sammamish Realty: Professional, Personalized, Efficient and Communicative. They work for YOU.   I appreciate the opportunity to recommend Scott & Kim Bobson and Sammamish Realty to any home seller or buyer.

Sincerely,      Scott

Thank-You for Leading the Way to Our Dream Home!

Thank you for leading the way in getting myself and my family into our dream house in Sammamish. I have owned 5 homes in my life and you by far made this purchase the easiest and most efficient in a time where the housing market is just the opposite. My sister Lori referred you and your wife to me and she spoke of your reputation and how you under promise and over deliver with every client that you have. You by far surpassed even those expectations. Thank you again and be assured I will send you all referrals to you in the future.

Thank you,     Chip & Priscilla

Working with Scott and Kim was a Pleasure!

Working with Scott and Kim was a pleasure.  I have been in the commercial real estate business for nearly 10 years, so I feel like I have a good sense of what makes a competent agent.  They laid out a sound strategy based on their knowledge of the market that was completely on target, yet were totally on board when we decided we wanted to test the market by slightly exceeding the upper end of their value range.  They worked extremely hard along with the rest of their team to show our house and Kim did a great job of staging it for us (as part of their services - I am sure you would be charged extra by most firms).   They gave us great advice to reduce our list price after our initial probe and worked together with us to agree on the appropriate amount to reduce it.  We absolutely did as well as we possibly could have price-wise in today's market.  They were also invaluable as we moved through the process keeping us updated on the status of the deal, providing us referrals to vendors and working with buyer's agents who I felt weren't nearly as professional as Scott & Kim.   I would absolutely recommend Scott & Kim to you.  We had a great experience and I know that in a few months when we start looking for a new house ourselves, we will be working with Kim to find it.

Professionalism and Dedication

Kim & Scott,We have been deeply impressed by your professionalism and your dedication to the clients. The whole process of buying our house and selling our former residence was a great experience, wonderful and enlightening, because of you. Hiring you as our agent must have been one of the best decisions we have ever made, and we really love the house you helped us to purchase.As you may have guessed, we have started talking about Kim the excellent realtor among our friends and in the local Chinese community. We would certainly be more than happy to refer you to anyone interested in buying or selling a property.

Again, many thanks,     Jian and Grace

Thank you again for all of your Planning, Research, Negotiations and Guidance!

Thank you and the Sammamish Realty team for your help and support over the years.  As a repeat customer, Sammamish Realty maintained an exceptional level of professionalism in guidance, communication, reliability and integrity.  As a result the transition of moving to a larger home and then some years later to a smaller home have been smooth and managed well. The sale of the 1st property, which utilized Kim's amazing eye-catching marketing experience and Scott's guidance and negotiation skills, resulted in getting more than the asking price for my home.  The 2nd property was basically sold within 24 hours of the listing date and for much more than I thought it would go for.  In my opinion, any other realty company cannot match the research and knowledge base that Scott and Kim possess.  Not only are they experts in their field, but they care about their clients.  Continually through our various transactions and on all levels, the team has gone the extra mile to help.  One instance that stands out was when one of my children locked themselves out of the house and could not reach me.  Sammamish Realty came over to the house and let them in.  What caring individuals!  Additionally, Sammamish Realty worked with me on my schedule to setup Open Houses and various other impromptu showings.  They always kept me informed of what had transpired during a showing and what outcome I could expect.  All transactions were clearly communicated and all ideas were well thought out and when implemented, worked well. If anyone were to ask me what Realty Company I would recommend, hands down, it would be Sammamish Realty.  The personalized service, along with the high level of expertise in all areas of the sell-to-sold process is Invaluable.  They truly are an amazing team. Thank you again for all of your planning, research, negotiations and guidance!  You truly are a remarkable group and care about my family and how a move like this would affect us!  You're one in a million!

Kathleen and Family P.S.  My children told me to say hello!

Thank You - Sincerely,      Michael

Always provided Excellent Suggestions, Feedback and Support

This is a long overdue note thanking you and yoru team so much for the excellent service and support you provided our family when we decided to upgrade our home. You truly made a very difficult time (buying a house, selling a house, 2 x 2 year olds and a baby on the way) as easy as it could possibly be.  Paramount to this was our tremendous knowledge of the market in Sammamihs, your excellent communication and the high integrity you displayed throughout the entire process. When we entered in to this endeavor with you and your team, we could not have expected such a high level of service as we received.  Our concerns or questions were always addressed to our satisfaction, messages were answered as soon as possible, any items that required follow up were handled quickly; every one with the utmost courtesy and professionalism.  Kim, your ability to understand what we were looking for (even though we didn't know it all of the time) and show us homes that really fit our needs without wasting our time, really simplified the process.  Scott, you were right on when pricing our old house and helping us determine the correct offer on our new house.  You were also so good at guiding us through some difficult situations that we couldn't have anticipated; always as calmly and professionally as can be, leading us to a very successful buy/sell transaction.  And we will never forget the rest of the team who were able to support all of the open houses that eventually led to the sale of our home. We are especially grateful for the way you both immediately made us feel comfortable in working with you, which never wavered throughout the entire time we worked together.  You were always able to provide excellent suggestions, feedback and support without making us feel forced into decisions we weren't comfortable with.  You always made us feel like we were always in control and that you were behind us 100%; we cannot tell you how valuable that was to us. You proved many times over that we made a very wise choice in working with Sammamish Realty.  We will strongly recommend you and the entire Sammamish Realty team to anyone we know who is looking to buy or sell in the area and will be very happy to be a reference for any potential clients you may have int he future.  You not only have our highest recommendation, but also our awe at what a great team you are. Thank you again for such wonderful service and friendship!
