Bought a Single Family home in 2008 for approximately $450K in Matthews Beach, Seattle, WA.

Summary:

From the first day we met Leslie, we connected with her like an old acquaintance. We were first-time homebuyers, so we needed a realtor who was patient, professional, trustworthy, and competent. Leslie was all that and more.

Leslie allowed us to dream and have fun while keeping us grounded. She took the stress and confusion out of purchasing a home. We never experienced any pressure or a hint of discourtesy. As busy as she was, we felt as if we were her only clients.

We enjoyed working with her so much that we actually missed her after we purchased our house. She's our realtor for life.

Sold a home in 2008.

Summary:

Leslie was professional in the service she provided to successfully list and sell our condominium, from making the arrangements for staging through closing. She was personable, attentive, and followed through every aspect of listing and sale in a timely manner.

We would highly recommend Leslie as a real estate agent and would use her again if the opportunity arises.

Bought a Single Family home in 2006 for approximately $300K in Shoreline, WA.

Summary:

Leslie Ota is an exceptional agent and I highly recommend her to all of my family and friends. She helped me to buy the home I am currently living in and enjoying. I bought in a very competitive market in 2006, and with Leslie's business savvy and negotiation skills, I was able to beat out another offer and purchase my home at a great price. The home, the neighbors, and the location are perfect for my lifestyle . She thought of everything! Her knowledge of the area and housing market helped to secure not only a lovely home, but a very solid investment for my family. Thanks, Leslie!

Sold a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $750K in Madrona, Seattle, WA.

Summary:

For better or worse we have bought and sold a few homes in a short number of years, and because of that, have had a few different real estate agents in the Seattle area. I can honestlysay that none of them hold a candle to Leslie. She worked with us for months to be sure to get our house in the best shape possible for sale. She gave good and guidance, and was also a very good listener, which we really appreciated. The professionalism she showed both to us and potential buyers was unparalleled. My only regret is that we couldn't use her as our buying agent since we moved out of the immediate Seattle area.

Sold a Single Family home in 2007 for approximately $7.025M in Yarrow Point, WA.

Summary:

My wife and I decided to build a new house and Leslie did a superb job of helping us find the right lot. She knew ALL the neighborhoods, was incredibly effective at matching what we cared about: pricing, the right "feel" for our family/kids, value for the cost, etc.

Not only was she great at understanding us and identifying a perfect site, but she did an amazing job with the purchase process. She got us a TERRIFIC deal and handled all the details of the transaction smoothly and with no issues.

Highly, highly recommended

Sold a home in 2010.

Summary:

Leslie did an excellent job of researching to ensure our Madison Park home was listed at the right price and marketing the house once it was on the market. We received multiple offers within the first month and ended up selling the house for more than we initially expected.

Bought a home in 2011.

Summary:

Leslie was immensely helpful from the moment we decided to look for a condo in Seattle through the purchase process and beyond. Newcomers to the Pacific Northwest with a residence in the Yakima Valley, my husband and I were in the market for an urban "escape" place. Leslie was flexible with our limited time, narrowed down our choices, and guided us through the decision and purchasing process almost seamlessly - even providing a CD of the large number of documents. We are now truly enjoying our Seattle home, and Leslie checks in occassionally to see if she can help us settle in. It was a first-rate experience -- thank you Leslie!

Sold a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $1.35M in Laurelhurst, Seattle, WA.

Summary:

Leslie is top notch. Her expertise and professionalism was extraordinary. Leslie guided and included us through every aspect of the sale. She was thorough and detail oriented through every step, keeping us informed and timely. Our house sold in 3 days, as it was perfectly prepared for listing. Her negotiating skills were incredible as she handled the offers. We were able to sell our house at a price that exceeded our expectations. When searching for another home, Leslie did an extraordinary job as well. She monitors the market and inventory diligently as not to let the right house slip away. Again, her negotiating skills landed us a house in the perfect neighborhood for our family at the right price. Leslie is a joy to work with and we could not say enough about her quality of service and recommend Leslie to all friends and family.

Sold a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $850K in Seward Park, Seattle, WA.

Summary:

Leslie came to our home prepared with a strategy to sell our house, recommendations to show our house in it's best possible light, knowledge of the Seattle real estate market with specific details of house sales in our area and a clear understanding of how that local market would relate to our house, which was not typical of immediate Seward Park area. Leslie listened and understood what kind of pricing we wanted to set and gently took us through the reality of the market. She set a sound marketing plan and future plans in case the house did not sell, so that we could capitalize on the interest of buyers for a new house on the market. Leslie guided us gently and consistently through the price changes and helped us understand what we needed to do to keep the interest up. The best recommendation for Leslie expertise and capability is that our house sold in a little over a month.
