We knew Joel was the right agent for us from the very beginning. Before showing us any homes, he took some time to get to know us and find out what we were looking for. We had just relocated from Asia and were completely new to the Seattle market. But Joel really was there for us every step of the way. On the days we viewed homes, he was punctual and patient, giving us ample time to view each home and asking questions throughout to better understand what we were looking for. On the days in between, he was always available to answer questions and help schedule visits. Even after our house closed, he continued to be of assistance, recommending professionals to help us with repairs and re-keying locks. In fact, Joel showed up, tools in hand, to help us with a few things when we were unable to get a handyman in. Joel is professional and knowledgeable about the market. He provided invaluable input as we worked with him to put together our bid for our house. He really cares about you and not just the sale. We cannot recommend him highly enough!
