"I've worked with many real estate brokers over the years to buy and sell homes and working with Jennifer was by far the best experience I've had. She is smart, diligent, sincere, and a phenomenal advocate. I always felt like she was operating in my best interests, and I trusted her guidance completely. At the beginning of my search, she spent time to understand my needs, to help me understand how the Seattle/Bellevue market is different from my home state and laid out a roadmap for the home-buying process in this ultra-competitive market. Jennifer was always responsive and provided great insights at every step of the process on everything from reviewing inspection reports to exploring financing options. Her experience in real estate investment shows - she can walk into a house and quickly know what changes can easily be made to improve a home, at what cost, and what attributes of a home will make it a strong investment versus when to walk away. She also has excellent communication skills, which I believe was central to helping my offer prevail among many others. I could not be happier with the overall process and outcome - and recommend Jennifer to anyone who wants a trusted partner in the process of buying a home."

"I had high expectations of Jennifer's service ... and she exceeded them on all counts. We were selling an investment property in an area that we had hoped would improve over time but that had actually gone somewhat downhill. We decided to sell just when the market for sales was slowing WAY down. Jennifer helped us figure out how to shorten our time to market. She helped us throughout the process, connecting us with contractors, landscapers, etc. as needed to get the house updated, inspected, staged, and ready to sell. When we had some mishaps (a thief broke in and stole some of the staging items!) she was on the scene with items from her own home so that we could still hold an open house that day. Jennifer Flood absolutely went the extra mile. Despite the slow market, she helped us get this house sold, fast, for a price we were happy with (we got multiple offers), to a great buyer who knows the neighborhood and whom we hope will be very happy in the house. Not a single misstep in communication or service throughout the process. Always above and beyond what we expected. I can't imagine using another realtor in Seattle after this experience. These reviews only allow five stars; otherwise I would give Jennifer 10!"

"Jennifer is a true professional and takes her role as your realtor seriously. She is prepared, knowledgeable, and able to respond to clients and market demands in real-time. There is no request that goes unheeded and you can count on her to go the extra mile. Perhaps best if all, she is a caring and principled person that you are glad to have working on your behalf. We feel fortunate to have had her excellent advice guide us through a very successful home sale in a tricky market."

"Jennifer has worked as our real estate broker six times over the past 4 years, buying and selling single family investment homes, and most recently in the purchase of our new residence. And when I say worked, I mean WORKED. Jennifer went with us to tour countless homes and got to know our interests and priorities well. She was essential to keeping our search(es) on track during what have been sometimes challenging times for buyers. Jennifer is savvy with advice and strategy in selling a home: we followed her suggestions nearly to a tee in terms of how much to invest getting the homes ready for sale; when to list and how much to list the sales for; and she invested in marketing for the sale listings, with the result that in every case our home sales generated a lots of buyer interest, multiple offers, and ultimately sold for significantly above our expectations. As buyers, once again Jennifer’s advice on pricing and structuring our purchase offers was essential and we were able to get our offers accepted among multiple competitive offers for the homes that we wanted. And while it’s one thing to miss out on a purchase when buying as an investor, when we finally found a property that had the promise to fit as our new home (after a very long search), Jennifer’s success helping us win the deal was priceless. Now, living in and loving our new home, I’m certain that we would not be here if not for working with Jennifer. Finally, her professionalism is present and paramount throughout - her work with us, her tracking transaction logistics, her relationships with brokers representing counterparties. I could not give a stronger endorsement of working with Jennifer as your real estate broker, and when the day comes that we are ready to sell or buy again, there’s no doubt that we will.

"This was our first time selling a home, and Jennifer was an amazing support and resource throughout the process. From taking us to look at comparable properties to figure out pricing, making recommendations about where to invest in fixing up the property, and helping us evaluate multiple offers, Jennifer was knowledgeable, hardworking, and easy to work with. She has an eye for detail that made a big difference in driving up interest in the house and her professionalism made communication (both between her and us and us and buyer's agents) fast and easy. Jennifer did a fantastic job setting us up for multiple offers and negotiating the best sale we could have hoped for. We would highly recommend her as a real estate agent."

"Jennifer is a world class realtor. Due to family circumstances, we needed to get our home of 10+ years ready to sell fast. She helped us every step of the way, planning with us what needed to be done, creating a spreadsheet so we could keep track of tasks, and connecting us with service providers as needed. She also brokered a lease purchase agreement on our next house so that we could secure the property ahead of being able to make the final purchase, and move into it quickly so that our old house could be cleaned and minor repairs made more easily. Our old house was expertly staged, with input from Jennifer, and we found a buyer within a week of its going on the market. We received multiple offers and accepted one we were happy with. She then made sure that the closing took place smoothly, and in the same week as the closing on our new house. Honestly, she put in 200% effort on making sure our house sale and purchase were both exactly what we had hoped for. You know how some people are great at the start of a project, but kind of trail off in the later stages? Jennifer was putting in that 200% until well after both closings. I can't recommend her highly enough."
