Testimonials
★★★★★
"I was so fortunate to have Maja Butler help me renovate my home before I listed it with her. Her construction experience and guidance throughout the entire process was a blessing. Her knowledge of materials and current home buyer trends got me top dollar for my home; over asking price and the home sold within a week! I’m so glad I took her advice to fix up and paint the house before putting it on the market. Maja’s negotiating skills were incredible too. She is professional, committed, and very responsive in communicating with me via text, email, or phone. I highly recommend Maja whether you are buying or selling your home. She made the entire experience seem easy."

"Maja Butler is without any doubt, the best real estate agent I’ve ever had the privilege to work with, and I’ve worked with a lot of them in the past. Her experience, integrity, and knowledge of the Puget Sound real estate market have been such a great asset to me. I’ve witnessed first-hand that she is a highly skilled negotiator, and I was thankful she was negotiating on my behalf. I will always continue to use Maja as my real estate broker in Washington."

"I and my entire family have worked with Maja Butler for the past 12 years. Her knowledge and insight of the Eastside market was invaluable to myself and my family, as we purchased several homes through her. She was instrumental in assisting us with our mortgages, and updated us regularly throughout the entire closing process, going above and beyond in closing on one of the homes that was a short sale. She is also a skilled negotiator. I am pleased with her level and commitment of service, and I will continue working with Maja in the future."

"Maja Butler is the most responsive hands-on realtor I've ever worked with. She helped my husband and I buy our first home. Her knowledge and experience in the real estate industry is very apparent. She knows what she is talking about and will fight for her clients, getting them the best possible experience and outcome. We recently sold that home and used Maja again, she was completely hands-on and by that I mean, not only did she do her job she helped us do ours as well. Paintbrush and pressure washer in hand she made sure we got top dollar for our home. Which we sold for way above asking price. I knew she was amazing but when we bought our next home out of state and we had to use a different realtor for the purchase, I realized just how much Maja did for us emotionally through the process that the other realtor didn't do. Buying or selling a house can be very stressful but not if you have an outstanding realtor. Thank you Maja. I can't wait to work with you again!"

"Maja went over the top to help us sell our house. She gave us helpful ideas on what we need to do to so we could get a better price for our home. She was with us the whole way guiding us through the process. When it came time to put our home on the market, she even brought some of her own things to decorate and showcase the house. With her help, there was a whole lot less stress in the sale of our house. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone who is not only professional but genuinely interested in her clients."
