Testimonials

Working with Debbie made the process of selling the magnitude of our home seem seamlessly. She held our hands throughout every detail. Not only did she help us to get prepared to sell our home; she helped us emotionally to be ready to leave the home that we built and loved. We could not have done it without her. She never missed a beat. She worked endlessly. Available to us 24/7. We truly could not have had the successful outcome we did without her knowledge, resources, and most of all her patients. I would recommend Debbie without a second thought.

Ann and Gary Gosanko

We have moved about every two years for the last 26 years due to a military career, so we have worked with a lot of realtors—Debbie Constantine is top notch!! She really listened to us and sincerely wanted to find the right home that ticked every block. After months of looking in this crazy competitive market, Debbie called us and said, “I found your house,” and she did! She made sure we got a showing ASAP and was the first to call the seller’s realtor, which made all the difference in the end. We had been looking for over a year and a half and this was the first home that had everything we wanted. The funny thing is that we ended up being Debbie’s neighbor!! Debbie was so wonderful with her communication throughout this whole process and got back to us immediately. She was on top of every detail to be sure our home would close on time and was always professional, kind and courteous. She is truly dedicated and cares about her clients. She is not one of those realtors who drops you like a hot potato after the sale is completed. No, Debbie is there every step of the way and then some. She went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and was so generous making sure the house was pristine and perfect for us to move into. She also provided wonderful referrals for work we wanted done. The most meaningful thing was that she celebrated with us as if she were a friend, not just our realtor. We cannot thank Debbie enough for her expertise and for finding our beautiful home!! Can’t wait to have you over Debbie!

We have known Debbie for 10 years, as she has helped us with a home rental, a home purchase, and now a home sale. Throughout all these processes, she has been outstanding. She is a great communicator and kept us updated every step of the way. During this time of COVID, she was critical in making sure that we utilized all the tools available to market the home and smoothly move from offer review to close. Overall, a great experience! Thank you Debbie!

The Hoopers

It was such a joy working with Debbie. She was on top of everything. She did a fantastic job preparing the unit for sale from the perfect staging to signage throughout the unit. Debbie brought a consistent flow of people looking at the unit and provided immediate feedback after each showing. When the patio door lock broke just before listing, Debbie made sure it was fixed immediately. I appreciated her expertise in helping me understand all the legal documents. I highly recommend Debbie.

Dee Beaudette

We met Debbie in Fall of 2016 via a recommendation from my new Seattle employer. Given the tough housing market in Seattle, it took us over 2 years to finally find the right home. Debbie coached and patiently guided us throughout this period without rushing or pushing us in any way whatsoever, while getting to know us better as well as making concerted efforts to fully understand our needs and constraints during this time. Instead of just sending us a barrage of listings or pushing us in anyway, she clearly took the time to propose only those that met most of our criteria. Her alacrity and patience in arranging showings (sometimes within the hour) never failed to amaze and gratify us, and ultimately resulted in a timely offer for the property we recently ended up buying. Debbie has been a delight to work with throughout, and practically became part of our family during this process. Having worked with multiple Realtors in other areas of the US before, we would have no hesitation ranking her as the #1 among them all – not only because of her depth of understanding of the Seattle real estate market (she grew up in and is intimately familiar with Mercer Island), but because she is someone who genuinely cares about making her prospective buyers happy with their purchase. We cannot thank her enough for her guidance and help throughout this trying process.

Thanks to Debbie, I was successful in a very competitive and challenging market. She is a strategist, leader, advocate ... and most of all a partner. We faced numerous hurdles in a competitive market. Debbie never wavered ... and instilled confidence in me and others that we would get a deal closed. She always had a plan. She always answers the call. She always shows up. Two words for anyone thinking of buying or selling in this market ... "Choose Debbie".

For the past 10 years Debbie has represented members of my family in real estate transactions, consistently providing exceptional service and expertise. Smooth transactions are her signature and she is always there, even after the sale of the home to offer additional assistance. In 2012, I started to search for a home for myself, contacted Debbie and purchased a waterfront home in Yarrow Point. There were other offers on the table, but with Debbie’s guidance we were able to come to an agreement with the Seller. Debbie referred and coordinated a home inspector, sewer inspection and dock inspection. When we needed additional inspection to look into further issues, Debbie had the contacts and coordinated all the appointments. Additionally, she coordinated an extensive survey to be done on the property that I was buying to protect my purchase and to be a part of the title on the property. In 2013, I listed my waterfront home on Mercer Island with Debbie. Her knowledgeable advice led me to agree to price the home at market value and in 9 days received an offer. Even when an unexpected waterway encroachment issue popped up, Debbie handled it with complete professionalism. She kept all communications open with the Selling agent and referred me to an attorney to draft up an agreement for the encroachments resulting in a successful negotiation and an on-time closing. As the CEO of a major corporation with many time commitments, knowing that I can trust Debbie to successfully manage my real estate transactions from start to finish is extremely valuable to me. I greatly appreciate her passion for and commitment to outstanding customer service.

I am writing to tell you how pleased I am with the service of one of your agents, Debbie Constantine, in the sale of my westside waterfront property at 7815 W. Mercer Way on Mercer Island. Although I have known Debbie for a number of years, it was not in her capacity as a real estate professional. Upon my husband’s very sudden and untimely death, I decided to sell our large waterfront home. The bad economy and the very steep driveway coupled with the fact that the home was nearly 25 years old with only nominal remodeling made it a difficult property to market. The older more established agent who I worked with did little to creatively market my property and in nearly a year I was at my wit’s end with not even one offer and was very tired of listening to complaints about the economy and my steep driveway. I consulted Debbie who was very ethical and made it very clear that she did not want to discuss the listing with me until I had terminated the other relator. Immediately after I terminated the other relator, Debbie sprang into action even though she was in the midst of sending her oldest child off to college in a way that I had never began to see from the other person who I had worked with for so long. First of all, her positive attitude is so uplifting. She brought in her “team” consisting of an excellent stager, a fabulous photographer and the wonderful John L. Scott website. Debbie also convinced me to price the home very aggressively with extensive research on pricing that she shared with me. Within two days of the home being listed, Debbie had an offer from a highly qualified all cash buyer and the sale closed. The transaction was handled so smoothly that we celebrated with a number of agents from your office and the buyers all being invited aboard my classic yacht for a cruise around the island. Although there were a few minor issues on the inspection, the fact that seller and buyer were together on a yacht celebrating the sale is a testament to the job that Debbie did in bringing the transaction to a successful conclusion. I would highly recommend Debbie to anyone wanting to list their home, or to have her as an agent to represent a client in a home purchase. She knows the market, and can get the job done. Most importantly, she is ethical and very professional. My calls were always immediately returned, she always followed through and kept me fully informed, and did an excellent job selling the home.

We write to commend Debbie Constantine for her fine work selling our home on Mercer Island. Having lived in our home for 25 years and raised three children there, selling was a big step for us. Because we are both busy professionals, it was important to us to work with an agent who was smart and hard working. Debbie is both. Her expertise and professionalism made the entire process smooth. Her recommendations about how to prepare and organize the house before it went on the market were perfect. Her advice about how to price the home was well researched and astute. The house sold quickly, with multiple offers, and we were very impressed with how well she managed negotiations and communicated with us to make sure we had the best possible outcome. Debbie’s warmth and friendliness made it a pleasure to work with her. Debbie is a top notch real estate professional. We give her our highest recommendation.

My name is John Idzik and my wife Carol and I live at 4602 East Mercer Way on Mercer Island. We have had our home listed with Debbie Constantine in a very challenging market for the past three years and the sale finally closed today. Today was a big day for us and we certainly owe a debt of gratitude to Debbie! We have known Debbie since moving to Mercer Island six years ago and we have always trusted her. So when it came time to list our house it was quite natural for us to select Debbie as our agent. Debbie has guided us through various strategies and she has demonstrated patience, understanding and professionalism every step of the way. Debbie has been there at all times to respond to us or show our house at a moment’s notice. We have always felt that we were in good hands with Debbie. Ultimately Debbie encouraged one of her buying clients to view our house. It eventually resulted in several visits, inspections and estimates, all of which were coordinated by Debbie. In fact at one point Debbie was able to procure a contractor on 1-day notice to inspect the house when time was of the essence. Debbie ended up becoming a dual agent in this sale which placed her squarely in the middle of a transaction involving two of her friends. As expected she handled everything objectively and professionally making sure both sides were well informed. She kept the process moving forward and focused on reaching a conclusion that was mutually beneficial. Her efforts culminated in the closing of the sale today. We commend Debbie for her extra efforts in seeing this process through to the end. Oftentimes agencies proclaim unparalleled customer service, but in Debbie’s case she actually practices it. Debbie Constantine is a fine representative of John L. Scott Real Estate. Thank you Debbie!

I am pleased to provide a letter of reference. I am a commercial real estate developer and Debbie Constantine represented in the sale of our Mercer Island home. I am very skeptical of the value of a residential broker and have had many experiences where I wonder who they are working for. Debbie was a refreshing change. We had listed the house over the last 24 months with 2 other brokers who were both unsuccessful. In a very challenging market, Debbie had a very successful implementation plan including an architectural map of the home, a great set of online tools and a very professional approach. She listened to our objectives and performed exceptionally well. From the onset of the project, we defined the objective of marketing the house for immediate sale. Debbie suggested an aggressive listing price that was somewhat hard to take. However, the pricing was right and great marketing provided us with 4 offers within a week and picked a 60 day close from initial presentation. There were a few bumps along the way but Debbie handled each one in a professional and friendly manner. If you want to sell your home in this market, listen to Debbie’s advice, follow her plan and let her charm and friendly rapport with the other brokers lead to a successful outcome. We were delighted with the outcome and recommend Debbie as an outstanding broker and very charming and warm person.

I have known Debbie for several years through a friend that lives on Mercer Island. When I recently moved back to Washington State and needed to start the process of looking for a home Debbie was the Agent I chose because I knew her to be professional and a very positive person. We started this process in a very challenging market with low inventory and multiple offers coming in for each home. Debbie sat down with me to review the process, understand what I was looking for in a home and to answer my questions. She immediately started searching for options and setting up appointments to see homes. During this part of the process she went with me to each appointment and pointed out things that I should take into consideration at each home. This went on for a couple weeks until I identified a home that I wanted to make an offer on, and she immediately contacted the Sellers Agent to start the process. She took a very proactive approach and had several conversations with the sellers agent to build a relationship and gather the necessary information to help write our offer. We had a multiple buyer situation and Debbie coached me through the process telling me what to expect, including how high we might need to go to ensure we put in a strong offer. She took calls from the Sellers Agent to get answers to questions and immediately followed up with me to keep the process moving. All of her insight paid off as my offer was selected, from the 9 that were submitted. Through the entire process Debbie was patient, professional, ethical and had such a positive attitude. If you are buying or selling a home, I highly recommend Debbie. She will get the job done and you will not be disappointed!

On behalf of my wife and family, I would like to remind you of what a great asset you have in Debbie Constantine. Early 2010, we hit bottom with the economy and was tormented with the need to let go an investment property of ours. We were overwhelmed by the banks’ hot pursuits and their heartless phone calls. So we approached Debbie for advice and were immediately enlightened by her sweet smile and optimistic personality. She never forgot our best interest throughout the entire experience. Debbie was up front with her lacking experience in a “short sale”, but she took on the situation and came up with a plan that worked like a charm. Just the fact that she researched what properties we had, what else was for sale around us , and what has been sold around prior to our first meeting was a breathe of confidence. It assured us that she had a clear view of the market, and throughout the process, she updates us with new listings for comparison from the market. Her information to us has always been simple and to the point…..no fancy mumbo jumbo or “just to make us feel better” type. Everything she forecasted to us was pretty much how it went. She don’t paint a nice picture just to get our approval, but instead, she made the inevitable acceptable by showing us how to roll with it. We’ve also came to the agreement that her great personality and work ethic brings out the best from her colleagues who enjoys working with her. She found us a great negotiator for our “short sale” that mirrored her passion and optimism. The fact that we never had to “re-tell” our situation to either one of them….just updates, states their attention to detail. They were never too busy or out of reach by phone and email, and their responses are immediate. I personally appreciate their immediate replies that assures me to know that 1) they’ve got my message, 2) what they will do, and 3) for me not to worry about it from then on as long as nothing changes. It’s unquestionable that they had our best interest first. At the end of the day, what’s better than peace of the mind? They’ve allowed us to put our minds on the more important things in our lives……our kids. Finally, we all know everyone is out to make money, but it’s nice not to have it rubbed in our faces in times like these. Unfortunately we came up short on our end at the end of the “short sale”, but Debbie and the negotiator she found for us stepped up and made everything happen. We were dumbstruck by their selflessness. They’ve forever engraved their names in our hearts and minds. Who do you think we’ll go to on our next buy/sell? Whose name and number do you think we’ll pass to our good friends and relatives? You can bet your bottom dollars with our friend, Debbie Constantine, at John L. Scott.

Roger Yen

On behave of Steve and I, I would like to extend our appreciation and say thank you for all of your hard work with helping find our home. The endless hours that you have spent, professionalism, and dedication to helping us find a home that met all of our needs was instrumental to finding our home. I know you gave up many mornings with our 5:00 am texts back and forth and late evenings to show us homes on the Island. Steve and I cannot thank you enough for your continuous communication with the seller’s agent that resulted in saving us $15,000.00. We wanted to make sure you know how much you are valued and appreciated as we will refer you to anyone we know that is looking for a home.

Stilianos & Kari Manos

My wife and I lived at 3440 W Mercer Way for 31 years before she passed on New Year's Day 2016. I had met Debbie a number of years ago in the Lid Park (now Aubrey Davis Park) as we each were walking our dogs. She is a warm and friendly person who I would soon learn was also very competent and professional. I decided to sell the house in late 2016 but stopped the process in early 2017 when I realized I had no other place I wanted to go. Debbie rolled with the punch and showed me a number of condos, always being polite, engaged and helpful. I restarted the sale process in September of 2017 and was afraid the late start would defer an eventual sale into 2018, as I finally had motivation to sell. Debbie stepped up to the challenge. She coordinated an inspection to identify what repairs might be needed, found contractors to do the work, found a stager and an estate sale person, all in record time because of her contacts and great follow through. The house was 35 years old with a magnificent view but an unusual floor plan and only two real bedrooms, which made this a more difficult sale than usual. I received an offer in November 2017, which led to an inspection by the buyer that resulted in a revised offer and my counter. Throughout this process Debbie was on top of negotiations which quickly came to a successful conclusion. The sale closed 3 1/2 months after the listing agreement had been signed at a time of year when potential buyers were fewer. Debbie did a great job. Debbie's dedication to success in her profession, her knowledge of the market, her positive outlook and professionalism made the process both successful and pleasant. She has great empathy for people and was very supportive and a steadying influence in my emotional state regarding this sale. If you want a top professional who also has a great heart, call Debbie, and you will be glad you did.

Wil Claus

As a businessman of over fifty years I have always believed that exceptional work should not go unrecognized. Accordingly, I have to say that Ms. Constantine’s performance was superlative in every step of the sale of my home. Like so many other properties, mine had been on the market for several months and would no doubt have languished indefinitely but for the outstanding efforts of Debbie. She was the consummate professional realtor. Her bright demeanor, relational skills, and knowledge of the sale process left nothing to chance. She addressed every question and concern of mine forthrightly and concretely leaving no doubt in my mind that she was more then competent to handle my situation. Moreover, Debbie exuded energy. Her cell phone was on from morning till midnight, encouraging and counseling me on every facet of the sale of my property. She worked tirelessly never putting off for tomorrow what had to be done today. No detail was too small for her immediate attention. Finally, Debbie had the mental acumen necessary to revive my hopes and keep me in a positive frame of mind. She was always upbeat and confident. For my part, Debbie would brook no negative talk. Debbie was, in fact so optimistic that I inevitably came to the foregone conclusion that she would succeed in finding a buyer for my house. And of course that is exactly what happened! Rest assured you have a real asset in Ms. Constantine. Were I still in business, I would do my utmost to see that her talents were in the employ of my company.

William G. Lillas

This letter is to commend Ms. Constantine (Debbie) on her efficient and meticulous realty services that she has provided us. We first contacted Debbie in February, 2007, about finding a home on Mercer Island with a grand view of the Seattle skyline, easy access and large garden for $1.5 million or less. Debbie began showing us properties to further define our vision but we assured her that we were not interested in moving until next summer. We unexpectedly found a house 0n July 1, 2007. Debbie thoroughly toured the home with us the next day, then suggested and composed our offer. Through careful and respectful negotiations between Debbie and Frank Ceteznik, the seller accepted our bid — provided that we could close in 26 days. Debbie was most resourceful and supplied not only a list of inspectors but also worked with us and the various contractors to get fair market prices for the recommended repairs. During this time, Debbie introduced us to Jeanae Dinius, a mortgage broker with CTX Mortgage, to quickly arrange complex financing. Due to Debbie’s diligence and the high quality of people she recommended, we closed on our new home within 22 days. Debbie then directed the sale of our previous home and we received two strong offers within four days of putting it on the market. Again, she supplied highly qualified contractors and had the repairs made on our property completed within four days of the inspection. Debbie frequently communicated the status of the sale and we closed in late August, receiving more than our asking price. We also greatly appreciate your assistance when accepting contracts on this sale. Having gone through home real estate transactions over nine times in our past, we know how stressful buying or selling a home can be. Debbie’s professional and highly proficient services made these two transactions the most stress-free real estate transactions we have ever experienced. In addition to her professional, Debbie’s attention to detail, caring persona and delightfully positive personality instilled confidence and made the whole process pleasant, almost fun. We will highly recommend Debbie to our friends and colleagues.

David and Kipper Dail

I am writing this letter to express my thanks to our realtor Debbie Constantine. Debbie went above and beyond to help us purchase our new home and also gave us great advice in helping us sell our existing home. We had seen our new home at an open house coming home from church. We had known Debbie for years through a mutual friend, but knew she predominately sold on the east-side, this home was in north Seattle. We called Debbie and asked her if she would take the time to show us the house again and also represent us. Debbie worked tirelessly with the listing agent for the owner to assure that we purchase our home at a great price; affordable for us and acceptable to them. Debbie also took us around to see many comparables so we would feel confident that our home was exactly what we wanted and for the price we wanted to spend. After many weeks of counter offers the owners agreed to our price. We were thrilled. We moved into our new home. Now the work really began. We had been in our previous home for 25 years. We had made many up-dates to the kitchen/bathroom/etc. but it still had a few issues. Debbie met us at our home, and gave us great suggestions. Once again Debbie took us to view many comparables so my husband and I could price the home correctly. Debbie gave us her opinion; however, my husband and I thought it was worth a bit more. After all we had spent 25 loving years raising our family in that home. After two months and many open houses, we decided to reduce the house to the amount Debbie had suggested in the beginning given the state of the economy. We had an offer right away, but more importantly it was a good offer that satisfied both my husband and I and the buyers were also thrilled with there purchase. I wanted to personally thank Debbie for her countless hours of work helping us both buy and sell our home. Thank you also for all the phone calls, e mails, referrals to a great financial broker, her professionalism, etc. Debbie was invaluable and amazing to work with. Thank you again!

Kay & George Miaoulis

We would like to acknowledge the Debbie Constantine has been our best real estate agent that we have contracted in our half a dozen buy/sell resident actions. She has professionally guided us through the process of selling a condominium under difficult market conditions. Ms Constantine routinely held “open houses” and provided information on comparable property for sale. She negotiated well on the closing with the buyer and provided the necessary instruction to get through escrow. From a buyer’s standpoint, Debbie listened to our requirements and preferences and showed us properties that fit that profile. As we looked at properties, she took our assessment of strong points and criticisms and adjusted future showings to accommodate us. As in the selling process, she responded to all our questions as we moved through the negotiations and closing. When we relocate again – hopefully not too soon - we will ask Debbie Constantine to be our agent.

Phil & Trudy Kelly

I would like to express my complete satisfaction with the wonderful experience of buying a home with Debbie Constantine at John L Scott as my agent. Eager to snag a bargain in what is said to be a buyers market I had identified a couple of homes on the internet and feeling that the culture on Mercer Island required an agent who is known and respected by the other agents and I engaged Debbie. Throughout the process she was extremely professional and knowledgeable. She understood the difficulty I had making decisions alone when I had been used to having a co-owner to make decisions for me, and she was available at any time to discuss my concerns both practical and emotional, in a manner which was neither intimidating nor belittling. The longevity of her residency on the island means she is very well known within the industry and has a first hand knowledge of the history around many of the neighborhoods - and can recall previous residents and their families. I watched her interactions with several of her acquaintances (including past clients and real estate professionals) and she was always treated with warm respect which confirmed my impressions of her as a first class resource. I would not hesitate to work with Debbie again and recommend her highly to anyone looking to purchase (or sell) a home.

Pauline Heard

Debbie aptly facilitated the purchase of my new home and helped me sell my former home on Mercer Island. She has a vast and long-standing knowledge of the Seattle/Bellevue real estate market that’s been built from years of experience in the industry. She’s kind, approachable and an absolute delight to work with. Debbie has an extensive network of capable and readily available contacts who are able to show up whenever needed when the time comes to hit the ground running to ready a home for sale. From contractors to stagers, everyone Debbie had me work with was the best and brightest. If you’re looking for someone to walk you through every step of the process, start to finish, Debbie is who I would recommend you work with.

Wendy Smith

Debbie is absolutely an all-rounder when it comes to assisting her clients through the end-to-end buying process. I was a first time home-buyer in one of the most competitive and challenging markets with very low inventory levels. Debbie not only took the time to understand my priorities in this search, but also helped me educate about the latest market trends and while getting me acclimated to areas which I had never considered before. I was able to find an ideal home that I loved within three months and to ensure we won the offer, Debbie strategically constructed the offer by closely partnering with the sellers agent and understanding the seller’s key preferences. She was aggressive with her approach and proactive about following up on the key details which allowed us to get ahead of the competition and beat 11 other offers on the house! I highly recommend partnering with Debbie whether you’re buying or selling a house as her exhaustive approach and extensive experience is unparalleled within this highly competitive market.

Charan Lalwani

"Ms. Constantine has been a long-term friend of mine. We went to Mercer Island High School together. Her excellent performance record speaks for itself. During the listing and sale of our property, she demonstrated the experience and ability of a true professional, taking the extra steps to ensure that the listing and sale of our property would be a complete success. The buyer and myself (seller) were totally satisfied with the entire process and conclusive results that were accomplished. I would highly recommend Ms. Constantine to anyone who wants to buy or sell a property, with the highest level of expertise available to them."

Richard White

"Debbie has been our "go-to" agent for several real estate transactions over the past 10 years. She is wonderful to work with and is always available, day or night. We love working with her!"

Patrick Hooper.

"With it being a seller's market when my uncle and I were searching for his new home, I was worried about finding one that would fit his life. Debbie did a great job though and found a condo that is perfect for my uncle. It is in a familiar location for him, close to the shopping area of town, and to transportation. She communicated all important information throughout the buying process and has guided my uncle through every step, even the small ones as he is a first time home buyer. My uncle is very pleased with his new home and is excited to move in!"

Tina White

I (very) rarely write on-line reviews, but I can't resist writing in praise of the representation provided me by Debbie Constantine. Her expertise is solid. As an established senior real estate advisor, I give Debbie the highest rating possible. Debbie has decades of experience and she was professional and lovely to work with. I am thankful that Debbie was dedicated to helping me locate and purchase my home on Mercer Island. In closing, I'd like to report that Debbie was a truly great all-around communicator throughout the process. Thank you, Debbie Constantine!

Peggy Hammerle

This was our second time working with Debbie. First to buy now to sell. We needed a lot of help getting the home ready to show. Debbie was a big help! She helped us get everything ready and knows what it takes to sell fast? She was able to help us with contractors, staging, emergency house cleaning, you name it! With her experience we were able to get top dollar! Highly recommend Debbie and her team. Couldn’t be happier.

Adam & Cindy Watson

" I was so happy to have Debbie on my side when I bought my first home. She helped the process move smoothly and was readily available to answer any questions. From start to finish Debbie was supportive and followed through. I appreciate her extensive real estate experience. I would recommend Debbie to anyone! Working with Debbie made the process worthwhile. She advocated for us and maintained constant communication, going above expectations."

Allegra & Jeffrey Condiotty

“Debbie Constantine's personality is one of professionality. She has a strong love of her profession. She guided us through it all with both solid advice as well as emotionally supportive. After 30 years in the profession, she is skillful in assessing and marketing property, She listens to your needs and at the same time leads you competently toward a successful sale. We highly recommend Debbie. She is quick to respond, trustworthy, hardworking and professional."

Hans and Deb Fredrikson

"Debbie has been our "go-to" real estate service provider for 12 years. For our recent transaction (buying the house we were renting) Debbie tailored her services to meet our needs and went above and beyond in making sure that we were taken care of during the purchasing process. Debbie takes great pride in her work, and it shows. We will only use Debbie for our real estate needs!"

The Hoopers

"Having known Debbie for several years already, when my husband and I started looking to move back to Seattle we immediately reached out to Debbie for her assistance and expertise. In the current market, finding a house was a little crazy but Debbie helped us every step of the way. She is quick to respond and provides honest, practical advice for making the best offer. We live out of state, so we were not always able to be in town to tour the houses we were interested in. Thankfully, Debbie was always more than willing to tour a house for us - frequently with only a couple days advance notice, which we greatly appreciated. Once we were under contract, Debbie toured the house again with us (our first time seeing in person), and we were impressed with her attention to detail. She ensured the sellers had plans to professionally clean the house and remove any extra trash/junk she noticed. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the area. Thank you, Debbie!"

Courtney Collins

"Debbie was my Real Estate Professional when I was selling my townhouse back in December. I was so overwhelmed with the whole process of having my townhouse ready for sale, but Debbie was so encouraging, calm, enthusiastic, knew exactly what to do and how to help! I was impressed by her work, ethic and attention to deals. She helped me so much with finding wall painters, carpet work, staging, things like making my back porch look pretty by planting flowers, taking my big old pine tree out of the pot (it was super heavy, but she said: "Natalya, we can do it!"). Debbie is the person that I would work again in a heart beat! Thank you, Debbie and you are amazing! By the way, she sold my townhouse at very optimum price."

Natalya Ageyeva

“Debbie listed my condo for sale which sold in 3 days. She assisted me in preparing my property for the sale. She encouraged me to have a home inspection done and to repair items noted by the inspection, which I did. She prepared a list of various companies I could hire to do the repairs. By having the inspection done ahead of time answered potential buyers questions right away. Debbie has a vast knowledge of and experience in the Real Estate market. With her guidance the sale was very success with very few difficulties."

Trudy Kelly

“We were fortunate to meet Debbie by chance at a home viewing and were impressed by her deep knowledge of the Mercer Island real estate market, her attention to detail, and her frank assessment regarding offer strategies to be competitive in what has been a volatile market. Debbie invested countless hours in viewing numerous listings with us -- including many outside of our price range -- to better inform us about what we could realistically afford in our preferred location. Our successful bid as first-time homeowners (competing against three other offers) was really due to Debbie's expertise and her extensive contacts. Even after we closed, Debbie has continued to keep in touch with us about our new home, which we really appreciate. We highly recommend Debbie's services, particularly if you are looking for a home on Mercer Island!"

J.L. and D.Y.

"Debbie was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful in all aspects of our sales. We enjoyed working with her tremendously. I would highly recommend Debbie to anyone buying or selling a house with no doubt! She was very dedicated to helping us selling our house, providing insights & recommendation while still trying to get the best for us. We really liked the experience!!"

Alberto and Gloria

“Debbie is very responsive and absolutely wonderful to work with. She has sold two of our homes and found us our dream home. She even worked tirelessly during her vacation to get us our new home. We absolutely love her and would recommend her to all of our family and friends”

We loved working with Debbie! We were relocating from another state and Debbie took the time to take us to many different Seattle neighborhoods so we could get a feel for where we wanted to purchase. She never made us feel rushed. Debbie was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and the buying/selling process and answered all of our questions. Debbie got us connected with other mortgage professionals and home resources. Debbie went above and beyond making connections and introductions for us in the community and making recommendations on all things local.

Debbie handled our purchase of a condo on Mercer Island. She was exceptionally responsive and knowledgeable. She showed us a number of units, and when she wasn't available for a showing, she arranged an associate on our schedule. She negotiated a favorable price for us, and we were very pleased with the purchase. Communication was excellent at all times. Highest rating

Debbie is a knowledgeable, trustworthy real estate agent who works hard for her clients though the entire selling process. The sale of my Mother's condo was a bit tricky as there were dependencies that made timing limited. Debbie and her team of professionals applied the right level of urgency along with a market evaluation that resulted in the sale of the condo at the right market driven price. She was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend her as a real estate agent!

It was a pleasure working with Debbie to close on our new home. We loved the place and wanted to close fast without any hassle. It was obvious she had a lot of experience and knowledge of the local area. All our questions and concerns were addressed thoroughly. She was super-efficient, and each step of the closing process went very smoothly under her guidance and help. Additionally, she went over and above to help us will some non-related issues to help us get settled in. Would definitely use her services again if the need arises.

Debbie is an all-star agent who goes the extra mile (and more) to make sure you are happy, you get the best service possible. Debbie was my agent on the purchasing side in Seattle and she made herself available at all times, she is an excellent communicator and her responsiveness is remarkable. Highly recommend having Debbie on your side!
