"I HIGHLY recommend using Valerie if you are buying or selling your home! Valerie was AMAZING to work with throughout the entire process. From the initial listing presentation, to the sale of our home and beyond, Valerie supported us through every little step. She exceeded every expectation I had for a real estate broker. She was extremely communicative and responsive, something that my type A personality really appreciated! In preparation for our listing, Valerie thought of every little detail to get our home ready. The photographer and videographer that she used, were also amazing. Those details make such a difference in marketing your home. We received many offers on our home, and Valerie navigated through all of them to assure that we not only received the highest value for our home, but also the strongest offer all around. We received WELL over ask for our home, and I truly believe that all of Valerie's hard work played a large part in that. I was also SO appreciative of the work that she put in after our home was already sold. Valerie offered to help us sell the furniture that was not coming along with us. She didn't just post it for us, she actually came over, measured everything, took pictures, posted it, and then managed them for us. Valerie truly is exceptional! She is professional, ethical, detail-oriented, and extremely hard-working. She was definitely the broker for us. And even better yet, we can now call her a friend!"

"We worked with Valerie to purchase a home in Bellevue, WA in April 2021. It was a daunting time to be a homebuyer, but Valerie prepared us for what we could expect in this challenging market and always stayed upbeat and positive. She was attuned and responsive to our needs throughout our search. We appreciated her knowledge of the process and of the local market. She was very professional, always available at short notice to view a house with us, and just a pleasure to work with overall. We were thrilled when our offer was accepted on a beautiful home in a fantastic neighborhood. Thank you, Valerie!"

"Valerie is an amazing realtor. We started looking at houses when we were in MA so Valerie was our window into homes in the Snoqualmie Valley until we arrived out here. She checked out several homes on her own for us and took us on several FaceTime tours before we arrived for in person tours. Unfortunately, in the very hot COVID market, it took a while to get an accepted offer so we had a few upsets, but she never gave up and kept our spirits up and knew we would find a home we would love. Throughout the entire process she was very knowledgable, patient, supportive, flexible, encouraging and meticulous with details. We finally chose a new construction home and Valerie's insight to working with new construction and being our advocate with the builder representatives was top notch. Not only is Valerie excellent at her job, but she is a very special, caring person who I'm glad to now call a friend."

"We worked with Valerie to sell our home in Snoqualmie in 2020. We were very impressed with the whole process and the dedication to the sale. She does her research to price the home accordingly and then presents the home in the best of light for potential buyers. We are very happy with her service."

No tricks, no games in dealing with her clients or other real estate professionals, just good, honest hard work.
