    "She was on top of things! We would highly recommend her!"
    Had it not been for Devon's recommendation for strategically pricing our offer, and personalizing it, we are sure that we would not have been the chosen party to purchase our new beautiful home. From the moment that we started working with Devon, we were so pleased with how quickly she was on top of things getting additional information and completing the necessary paperwork.Devon is #1 with her knowledge and professionalism, and we would highly recommend her.

    "Do Yourselves a Favor and Work With Devon. You Won’t Regret It!"
    "We. Love. Devon. Devon is SO good at her job that within 7 days of initially meeting with her we'd seen 3 properties, made 1 offer, and had it accepted that evening. My only regret is that we didn't get to spend more time with her! Devon knows her stuff - she's super familiar with the Seattle metro market,is realistic, kind, and SO communicative. I swear she knows when we're going to text her before we hit send. She's continued to be incredibly supportive post-sale with any questions we have or support we need as first time homebuyers. Do yourselves a favor and work with Devon. You won't regret it!!!"

    "Devon has an indomitable enthusiasm!!"
    In this beyond insane Seattle real estate market, we searched for a house for one month, made one offer, and - we were able to get a house! There were many factors that were part of why we were so lucky and a significant one was Devon's advice and experience. She would,with her own deep knowledge in selling/buying/renovating property, give us excellent advice throughout our house search without. I especially appreciated her ability to estimate and assess renovations done on a house (there are so many house flips of varying quality on the market) and she was even able to warn us away from a sketchy house. It also came in super useful when she would give us very specific information about materials and the costs of renovations. Devon has an indomitable enthusiasm and I really can't believe how much time she was able to spend with us searching for houses. It really felt like we were her only client. She is so responsive in any of your communications and really flexible in scheduling viewings - even with crazy last-minute stuff. My only regret with this short house search is that we will miss hanging out with her! I really cannot imagine a more capable advocate to have in your corner while navigating this real estate market.

    "Devon helped us find the most amazing, perfect, forever house."
    Devon is absolutely amazing! I have already referred my friends and family to her. She worked with my husband and me for a long time before we were ready to jump into the housing market (the long time was our fault having cold feet, not hers at all).Devon was always ready and willing to run numbers on our townhouse that we had to sell and break even on to be able to buy. She was always ready to talk to me and tell me what, if any, updates might help our houses profitability. She NEVER pressured us, was ALWAYS patient, and was honest with us, even when it might not have been easy. When the time was right and the numbers looked positive for us, she helped us put our townhouse on the market, we sold our townhouse pretty quickly to a cash buyer. After that we were ready to commit to a house and Devon helped us find the most amazing, perfect, forever house.

    "Highly recommend her!!"
    We used Devon to buy our home in 2019, and again to sell it in 2021. We love Devon!! She helped us come up with a great strategy and we were successful in selling our home for well over what we'd purchased it for just two years ago. She's great at helping manage all whole process from start to finish - helping you decide what's worth fixing or updating to see a return on your money,lining up folks to get your home ready to sell, helping you get everything staged so it looks its best, even doing a little tidying up herself :) Highly recommend her!!

    "We ended up winning an early offer on a lovely home for a great price using her recommended strategies!"
    I whole-heartedly recommend Devon for anyone shopping for a home in the greater Seattle area. Throughout the whole process of purchasing our first home, we were constantly confused and occasionally frustrated navigating the current market. Devon was with us every step of the way,always prompt with communication and ready to offer insights from her deep knowledge of the market. We ended up winning an early offer on a lovely home for a great price using her recommended strategies. I can't recommend her enough!

    "I could not be happier with the service she provided!"
    Devon sold my house for top dollar then turned around and found a new house within a week. I could not be happier with the service she provided. In such a tough buyer's market, she convinced the seller to accept our offer early. I definitely had an advantage over everyone else in buying a home,and would not have got the home if she were weren't involved.

    "Don't think twice, use Devon for your real estate needs!"
    Do not hesitate to use Devon as your realtor! We live in Florida and used Devon to sell our second property in Seattle. She went above and beyond to ensure we did not have to make a trip to Seattle to do this. For instance, she took an inventory of our furnishings to negotiate a sale with the buyer.She even offered to try to sell them on our behalf if necessary! When our listing went "live" she went us a daily email with a summary of the activity on the listing. After the sale, she and her assistant packed up our personal belongings and shipped them to us in Florida. They cleaned out the items that we didn't need and carried them from the third floor to be disposed of or donated. I have bought and sold numerous properties over the years and because of Devon, this was the easiest sale we've had. Don't think twice, use Devon for your real estate needs!

    "One of our favorite parts about working with Devon is her eye for a good fixer upper!"
    We’re so happy we stumbled upon Devon on Zillow. We were in the hunt for a home and had been doing some research on our own before we decided it was time to call in a professional. She was immediately responsive to our emails, super helpful along the search, willing to meet us and show a house at just about any time of day,and guided us through the whole house buying process. One of our favorite parts about working with Devon is her eye for a good fixer upper. We had a budget in mind and given the crazy Seattle market, we knew we’d have to find a place that needed some work. Having fixed up houses herself, Devon has a solid understanding of the process. When we'd enter a house, she immediately knew what we should to do make it more livable and conducive to our lifestyles, as well as the associated cost. We knew she was a winner when we visited a flooded, mold-covered house and she brought her rain boots and trudged through the dark, underwater basement with me to see what was down there. We ended up with the perfect house for us in our dream location thanks to Devon’s strategies with the offer. Now that we’ve closed she’s still helping us with next steps and is an amazing reference for vendors and services for things we need around the house. If you're at all in the market, give her a call!

    "Very friendly, organized, and responsive!!"
    Devon helped us buy our first home in late 2021. With Devon's expertise, our second offer was accepted--which, in this market, felt like a small miracle. Her guidance in crafting offers was spot on and she had plenty of ideas on how we could protect our sanity and peace of mind throughout the process.Whenever we were unsure about something, she asked questions to get to the root cause of our concerns, and came up with ideas or solutions to address them. Devon talked us through every stage of the home buying process and we never felt rushed or pressured. She was genuinely invested in finding a home that was a good fit for us and was willing to give honest feedback about the condition of a home if needed. Very friendly, organized, and responsive. Thank you, Devon!

    "We would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in their quest for a new home!"
    We worked with Devon for about a year looking for our first home to buy in Seattle and she was amazing throughout the whole process! She was very responsive to all of our questions which was crucial in this market. She was able to accommodate viewings for us almost anytime we asked. If she wasn't able to meet us,she was diligent in finding someone for us who could. Devon was extremely patient with us as well. We were on the verge of making several offers and even when we backed out at the last minute, she remained calm, non-judgmental, and a pleasure to work with. Devon was always good-spirited and full of energy, and we would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone in their quest for a new home.

    "What more is there to say? Devon is a fantastic agent!"
    We were first-time home buyers…now, thanks to Devon, we are first-time homeowners! We found Devon on the recommendation of a friend, and we are so thankful to have had her as our agent. Devon made the entire process easy: she met us wherever we asked to talk through all the steps involved in searching,walking through, bidding, inspections, financing – you name it. She was incredibly knowledgeable and any time we hesitated or seemed unsure as to what a term or acronym meant she jumped in and explained it before we even had to ask. She was also a great listener, and really took the time to understand what we were looking for in a home. Immediately after our first meeting, Devon began sending us listings that fit our criteria. Whenever we viewed the online listing for a house multiple times, she checked in with us to see if we wanted to view it in person. She always made herself available via email, phone, and text for all our questions and scheduling. And, she had plenty of great contacts and recommendations for lenders, inspectors, and contractors for the additional work we want to do to our new home (like refinishing the beautiful hardwood floors). Because of her experience with home remodels, she was also a great resource during the inspection; she walked through the house with us and discussed every little issue to make sure we had a solid understanding of the home. Along with all her expertise, Devon was a pleasure to work with. She was super nice and very patient with our nerves and anxieties about house hunting and buying. Buying a house is stressful no matter what, but it would have been eminently more so if we had not had Devon in our corner. Thanks to Devon we have found the perfect house for us and in the exact neighborhood, we wanted to be in. With her negotiating skills and maybe a little magic, she even convinced the seller to accept our offer over a higher one! What more is there to say? Devon is a fantastic agent!

    " We’d highly recommend Devon to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive agent!"
    We contacted Devon a year or so prior to purchasing our home, and she was immediately receptive to our goals. We delayed our search for about a year, and when we were ready to look again it was like no time had passed at all. When we found the house we knew we wanted,Devon guided us in making a strong offer against 21 competing offers! Devon knew exactly what we needed to do to beat the competition. The entire process was very smooth from start to finish. Along the way, Devon was there to answer any questions we had at any time. As new home owners, Devon is still helping us as we make this home our own. We’d highly recommend Devon to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive agent.

    "She was always there with what we needed, when we needed it."
    Devon brought us success that other agents didn't. She listened to us carefully and told us what we needed to know. Thanks to her, we got what we wanted. She is a pleasant, courteous, and very focused professional. Devon understands real estate far better than most agents. And she can apply that knowledge quickly.When questions arose, she found the answers. And when problems arose, she invented the solutions. She was always there with what we needed when we needed it.

    "We have no hesitation in recommending her to friends and family"
    We were looking for a single family home in the LFP area and we wanted a realtor who knew the neighborhood and could guide us through our first home purchase. We are glad we chose Devon. She went through the buying process with us in our first meeting and kept sending us the listings every week promptly.As we visited open houses, we got clarity on the kind of house we wanted and Devon made sincere efforts to get to know our changing needs and provide feedback where appropriate. Devon is honest and has a go getter attitude necessary to be successful in a competitive market. She was never pushy and always gave us the time and space required to make a decision. When it finally came down to putting an offer on our house, she gave the best advise possible on making our offer competitive. Through out the day, as the goal post kept moving due to more offers, she made sure she was in the know and informed us on the best course of action. We could not be more happy with Devon and we have no hesitation in recommending her to friends and family.

    " I truly felt like she was on my side throughout the entire process!"
    Devon was wonderful to work with! She has a lot of personal experience in real estate and was very familiar with the different areas in North Seattle that we looked at. With each property we viewed she was very honest about market value and thoroughly looked at the construction quality of the home.I truly felt like she was on my side throughout the entire process; she was so patient and helped me find and buy "the one"! I trusted her throughout the entire process and she even recommended an inspector for my home inspection.

She matched our enthusiasm and helped guide us toward our dream home in a very short amount of time. She clearly loves what she does, and it shows. I would highly recommend Devon!

    "We love our new home and know she can help you find the perfect house as well!"
    Devon managed to make buying our first home during a pandemic an enjoyable and low-stress experience, which was no small feat. We can't recommend her highly enough. Somehow she will respond within minutes at almost any hour to any questions you have. During tours, she points out issues or features that might have gone unnoticed,and has a great understanding of renovation needs and costs. She knows Seattle and the market extremely well, and beyond her knowledge and expertise she's also a ton of fun. When our mortgage lender turned out to be a flake, she recommended her preferred lender and he ended up being excellent - and another key factor in making our home-buying experience a great one. We had the same frustrations that most Seattle buyers who aren't putting down infinite all-cash offers feel, but Devon balanced encouraging us to be aggressive with respecting our comfort zone when it came to waiving contingencies. We ended up getting a house in a very competitive city neighborhood pending inspection and below list - spend some time on Zillow and you'll see how rare that is. We love our new home and know she can help you find the perfect house as well.

    "We owe it to her for helping us buy our dream home!"
    My boyfriend and I recently bought a home with Devon as our agent, and we couldn't be any happier. When the house was first listed, Devon was the first agent to call and set up a walkthrough. We were able to see the house before anyone else allowing us to make the first offer.We owe it to her for helping us buy our dream home in our favorite neighborhood. Not only was she extremely diligent, timely and professional but her experience in the industry made the process as smooth and easy as possible. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of buying a home.

    "We will use her again, in a heartbeat."
    We bought 2 homes with a Windermere agent. But when it was time to sell our home, apparently the $500,000 price tag was not enough for him to make us a priority. I was referred to Devon by a friend and was a bit skeptical of a smaller agency than the typical ones you see everywhere.We were so pleased at our first meeting with her, she was genuinely friendly, intelligent and we had no doubt we would go with her. She was always on time, communicated well and most important to us, made us feel like she cared. She kept us up to date with offers, feedback, etc. In the end she got us $94,000 over ask with no contingencies. It doesn't get better than that. We will use her again, in a heartbeat.

    I spotted my house on a Wednesday night around 11. Devon was able to do a tour the next morning at 9, and we put in an offer the same day and got accepted! All of this within 24 hours! This can not be done without Devon's professionalism, expertise, and knowledge in this neighborhood.She is extremely helpful in the entire buying process, and made it really painless! I got the place well below my budget. Many thanks to Devon for her passion in helping people get things done!!! I will definitely recommend anyone who's in the market to Devon!

    "She was a pleasure to work with and very professional!"
    My husband and I relocated to Seattle after decades in Hawaii. We learned a lot about the real estate process and about ourselves by selling our large five bedroom house in Hawaii, which we had custom built and enjoyed for 20 years. We wanted to downsize now in Seattle and asked Devon to find us eithera house or condo that will enhance our quality of life and make sense since we no longer had children living at home. She was a pleasure to work with and very professional every time we looked at a property. As we got to know more about each other and learn about our respective families, we began considering her a friend and not just our realtor. Devon also took to heart what we shared and she soon identified our likes and dislikes, which resulted in her focusing on properties that met our criteria. We eventually found a condo that's perfect for us at this particular time in our lives.

    "Extremely professional, very organized and overall a really nice person!"
    We used Devon to help us buy a house in Lake Forest Park. We chose her after reading zillow reviews and talking to her on the phone. We have worked with a lot of realtors on past transactions but Devon was hands down the best experience we've had. We were moving from New Jersey and only had one trip out here to see the house.After that, everything was handled by phone, email and electronic document signing. Throughout that time, Devon was extremely responsive to our questions and proactive on our behalf. She did an excellent job of handling inspection issues and getting quotes and contractors for repairs. She was totally on the ball and we closed in 30 days without any issues. Even after moving into the house, she has been a great resource. She is very well connected and has been able to recommend numerous contractors to help with work on the house. Extremely professional, very organized and overall a really nice person! We really haven't come across that much in our past realtor dealings!
