Ken Neilson recommends Kent Bergsagel

I have known Kent for many years. Recently I needed to assist my mother-in-law sell her home in Everett. He answered all of her questions and guided us through the inspection process and then recommended a very good firm to make some necessary repairs. He even went so far as pressure wash her drive way for a better curb appeal. The sale and closing went off without a hitch. Kent was very professional through the whole process. I would highly recommend Kent to anyone.

Kresa and John Dreher recommends Debbie Buffelen

We just wanted to take time to provide a recommendation for Debbie and her team. We have worked with her for the past several years with a rental. When it came time to selling our house, she made it an easy choice to choose her.

She assisted us with navigating the entire process including recommending what updates needed to be done, what those updates should be, helped us source who could do necessary repairs and provided all the staging and photos needed in order to list the house for the best $ amount. If Debbie could do something herself, she did.

We don't often get to work with someone with such a high work ethic. As clients who were navigating the process from 3 hours away, we couldn't have been luckier.

We would highly recommend Debbie and her team to anyone who is in need of a Real Estate Professional. Regards, John and Kresa

Greg Hooker recommends Kent Bergsagel

If you’re looking for a review that is sugar coated this isn’t it.
Kent was exactly what I needed to sell my house. We started off by reviewing the entire house so I could develop the “fix up list”. Doing this gave me an idea of the time required to get my house ready for the market. Kent gave me ideas along with suggestions that would help when we went to market with an asking price. All along during my project Kent checked in on the items and was very pleased with the outcome and time line. We went to market and exceeded my expectations on a final price. What a great outcome it was after all the time that was put into getting my house ready. I can honestly say Kent has wisdom beyond his years and I could highly recommend him to anyone that will get someone that tells you without that sugar coating that others provide. It is still very nice to work with someone that shakes your hand and looks you straight in the eyes and says thank you for using me as your agent. I hope we can all get to that again.

Kent has been so helpful from day one. He was able to work around our schedule and was available to answer questions at any time. He communicated with us through the entire process so we understood what the next steps would be. He was very helpful when going to look at homes, he would check crawl spaces and even the attic. He helped us look at the houses in a different way. If you are a first time home buyer I would highly recommend Kent!

Words cannot express how thankful and blessed we were to have Debbie as our agent. She walked us thru every step of the process and was very transparent with what needed to be done on our end and gave us realistic expectations and her honest opinions. Everything that we could have wanted in a real estate agent we found in Debbie, she truly is the best. We cannot imagine how different it could have been without Debbie and she is now a part of our family and we will definitely use her in the sale of our current home purchase of our new one.

Debbie did such a wonderful job at assisting my wife and I in finding a forever home. During the house hunting process, she would look at the home as if she were buying it herself and point out the things that concerned her about each home and what the highlights were as well. She was straightforward and honest about every placed we viewed. You can tell she is really passionate about her job and helping others find their perfect home. Her experience in her field really shows. I highly recommend her.

It was a long process selling the lake front property, first the survey, changing the title, amendments to the closing date. Kent was there through out and guided us through the process until the sale closed. Kent helped with getting us the proper forms, finding a surveyor and even helped clean up the property.

If in the future I should sale my home I would contact Kent.

We happened upon Debbie's office by chance and with no appointment we just wandered in. She was immediately helpful and clearly new realestate. She became our agent and within 2 days we were putting an offer on a house. Nothing but good things to say about both Debbie and everyone that works with her. She and her team were very professional and super responsive to any and all inquiries/questions I had. I would highly recommend Debbie to anyone looking for a house in and around the Seattle area. They were a great team to work with.
