    "I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a home in Seattle!"

    Andrew was a wonderful Real Estate Agent to work with. He was very professional and responsive throughout the whole process and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a home in Seattle. As a first-time homebuyer he made the process feel easy, we never felt pushed or swayed in any direction.He was great at pointing out things about a home that many first-time homebuyers may miss, such as large expenses or the potential of the neighborhood. Thanks Andrew!

    "I would highly recommend him to anyone!!"

    As a first time condo-buyer in a new city I was pretty nervous about the entire process, but Andrew was absolutely wonderful to work with. Starting from the first time we met to tour a unit and chat, he provided me with extensive information (including an entire guidebook on the home-buying process)and was available and responsive to any questions I had (even the likely very stupid ones). We ended up negotiating an off-market deal with the seller for my unit which saved everyone time and money in the end. Since the sale, Andrew has checked in multiple times and been more than willing to answer questions about the unit and complex. I would highly recommend him to anyone, and particularly first-time buyers like myself.

    "Kind, Professional, Thorough, and Attentive to OUR needs. "

    Doug was great to work with - a real gentleman. He made the process of finding our house enjoyable. He was kind, professional, thorough, and attentive to OUR needs. He drove us around until we found the perfect place -- even took us back to it after we initially scoffed at it. He was right; the house we purchased,for our price range, was the best of what we could afford. He found us a great house in a great neighborhood and held our hand the whole way through. Doug made me feel like I had someone in my corner who was sincerely there for me as he advocated for us every step of the way. I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

    "Zach Will Be Our Go-to Agent in Future!"

    Me and my wife just completed our first home purchase and we are glad that Zach McDonald represented us. Being the newbie homebuyers in one of the most competitive housing market, we really wanted someone to help us to find the right house and also with the preassumed "daunting" paperwork involved.First of all, either you go with Zach or not as your real estate agent, his YouTube channel is a goldmine of information for any home buyer and especially Seattle market. With monthly updates and detailed step-by-step videos for each step in house buying, it makes so much easier for new home buyers like us to understand the process thoroughly. He was very clear on first step as getting pre-approval which proved to be really important in our case (TRUST the process!!). If you are someone like us who want very transparent communication, Zach and his team(Rachel and Lindsay) is the right choice for you. Our visits were properly scheduled, all safety precautions were taken amidst covid pandemic and never had any issues around it. He provided his honest opinion on each house we visited, laid out the pros and cons which really helped us to make a call. We had previously experienced how the agents created a pressurized situation to make a quick/hasty decision but house buying is probably the most expensive investment you are going to make. There was literally NO…NADA..NIL.. pressure from Zach to make a decision on any house we saw with him. Regular check-ins on Tuesday and Thursday make the whole process seamless as he breaks down each step for you and share latest updates for your case. THE FUN PART: Hands down, Zach and team are really passionate for their work. Closing on a house with Zach is an experience, why? That’s because the gestures this team makes to make it special for you. For us, sending card when you start the house buying process, another one when you put the down escrow money and last on closure. The best part, they come with cookies :) Finally on the closing days, Zach got food with Champagne, along with few gifts and an awesome welcome home video to save our memories for lifetime. Zach will be our go-to agent in future as well, we wish him great success in his business! Thank you Zach and Team, looking forward to do more business with you.

    "He is very professional and fun to work with!"

    I worked with Andrew for almost 11 months to finally get the townhouse fitting for my budget and taste. This was my first home buying experience and I didn’t know anything about the whole process. Andrew started with educating me about all of the home buying steps, then he carefully noted what I was looking for.Next, he showed me a large portfolio of listings with different prices and characteristics to help me set my expectations. Later, he patiently showed dozens of townhomes to me during the next 10 months and he was totally objective with his opinions. He was very organized, prompt, and reachable when we needed to submit an offer in a very short amount of time or I wanted to see a unit. He was a great help during the closing phase as well. He was always on my side and protecting me as his client. He was involved in every stage actively and his bias for action solved some significantly important obstacles that I encountered during the closing phase. He kept checking if everything is fine with the house even after I moved in. Also, he is very professional and fun to work with. Overall, I feel very lucky to work with Andrew; without him I wouldn’t be able to get my home as smoothly as I did.

    "Jennifer is an outstanding realator!"

    Jennifer is an outstanding realator. My wife and I were interested in selling our house to a developer, since our lot was zoned for multi unit development. Jennifer reached out to several developers on our behalf and was able to get several bids for our property.Because of Jennifer my wife and I sold our house for what we wanted and were able to buy our dream home for cash. Jennifer made herself available to us even after normal busines hours. If you're looking to sell a home or property, or you're wanting to buy a home, Jennifer is who you should choose.

    "Andrew was super patient and really helped working through options."

    My search was fairly specific so it took a while to find exactly the right house - Andrew was super patient and really helped working through options. His background in the area and types of homes was really helpful.

    "She was helpful, informative, and committed to helping us find a home that we loved."

    Working with Vicki was a dream! My parents recommended her to my husband and I after they worked with her to sell my grandfather's house, and it was the best decision we made. As first-time homebuyers, we were pleasantly surprised with how smooth the whole process went with Vicki. She was helpful,informative, and committed to helping us find a home that we loved. With her help we found a home much quick than anticipated. 10/10 experience, thank you Vicki!

    Vicki is a joy to work with. Friendly, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. I recommended her to two of my cousins and saw both ends up buying properties with her. She walked these very nervous, first-time buyers through the complex details with grace and charm. Our family can't recommend her services highly enough.She's the best!

    "Very Professional!"

    Jenny was professional and always followed up with direct communication. I would HIGHLY recommend her to help you execute the sale and purchase of a home!! All documents were sent on time and accurate. She was the best "fan" of us getting into our forever home.

    "Very Knowledgeable! "

    Jennifer helped throughout the process of what was an "as is" estate sale home, from the point of readying/clearing the home for sale, to swift listing, showing, evaluation of multiple offers & closing. She was resourceful with great contacts to help us complete some estate property clearing,plus deep cleaning the home and extensive landscaping/clearing. What was very important for us was having a realistic eye with recommendations of what to invest in before listing the home - a reality check on things like whether or not to paint, etc. I am confident we struck the right balance there, with her help and suspect I would have wasted effort/expense on actions that ultimately were not necessary for our specific scenario. She was always open to help me run down things at the house, to open it up for pick ups, etc., during this part of the process, which in my case, living 45 minutes away, was extremely helpful. This is clearly beyond the call of duty. Thanks again very much Jenny. In evaluation of the offers, we also had to keep an eye toward the associated risks of an older home, owned by our family since 1968, that had been unoccupied for approximately 2 years. We benefitted from the excellent market, and ultimately were able to close quickly with a cash offer - very important to our specific situation with an estate. The house was open for showing and open house activity over the weekend for any offers to be received and reviewed on Monday night. Jenny reviewed them with us, helped us with title questions as we got the estate attorney's review, counter offered, and had mutual acceptance by Wednesday afternoon I believe. Our closing was complete in less than a month from the initial listing (and over the Christmas holidays). Overall, we appreciate Jenny's help and would recommend that you see her when the house has completed its renovation by a professional builder! We are confident it will be a beauty again.

    "Couldn't have asked for a better experience!!"

    I can't say enough about the service provided by Andrew Schein - I would absolutely recommend him to anyone seeking an agent. Selling my first home was a new experience in and of itself. As I also happened to be relocating out of state while doing so the challenge was only furthered. Andrew's coaching,guidance, and execution couldn't have been better. I received knowledgeable guidance, great insight on areas to upgrade/repair, and solid instruction. Ultimately I received an offer within the first week and closed without issue. Incredibly smooth process at the price anticipated. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

    My husband and I have just bought a house with the help of our amazing real estate agent Andrew Schein. Andrew has been a pleasure to work with. He is an excellent expert, very hard working, diligent, professional, very responsive and has a great amount of local knowledge. As first-time homebuyers,Andrew helped us breeze through the process of buying a home, explaining everything we needed to know about the process and patiently answering all our questions. We cannot speak more highly of Andrew and we would recommend him without hesitation to anyone interested in buying a home.

    "Andrew went above and beyond to get quotes from various contractors."

    Mr. Schein was patient and followed me around Seattle touring at least 50+ homes for the better part of a year, only putting in an offer on 3 properties; despite this, he was quick to respond and always excited to tour more. Andrew, is very personable, he put me at ease throughout the whole process (my first home)and I never felt pressured, despite my foot dragging. Though I only placed three offers, his expertise showed through in how we navigated completely different situations to the right outcome for me: a competitive house with 6 offers, out of country owners, and finally the late-season purchase of a home on the market only 2 weeks. I couldn't be more content with the house I ended up with, zero buyers remorse, it's everything I wanted. During the closing process, Andrew went above and beyond to get quotes from various contractors and even measure external building dimensions himself to help me sort out future possibilities for the house while staying within building code.

    "Working with Doug was an outstanding experience!"

    Working with Doug was an outstanding experience for our family as he helped to sell our elderly mother's home. Doug not only helped us with the details and framework of the sale, but he took the initiative to help us identity areas of the home that needed to be spruced up for sale,and then followed through with us to completion. Doug is hard-working and professional, and above all he is honest and trustworthy. That mattered the most to my mother and to our family, and we were rewarded with a top-of-the-line experience. I highly recommend Doug without any reservations.

    "He Coached Us Through the Entire Process!"

    My husband and I just closed on our first house thanks to Zach and his team. The Seattle real estate market is stressful and intimidating for first timers, but we felt confident and equipped to make a strong offer with Zach's guidance. He coached us through the entire process, checked in on us regularly,and indulged in our requests for tours all across King and Snohomish counties. We will definitely be relying on him for our future home selling and buying adventures!

    "Go with Andrew. You won't be disappointed!"

    I cannot speak more highly of Andrew! When my wife and I were looking at realtors, Andrew stood out to us immediately given his breadth of local knowledge and his past experience in construction and building. On top of that, he had recently sold many houses in our price point, so we decided to set up a meeting with him.I am so glad we did! Andrew was a true professional from start to finish, and was flexible and available to us when our house search really started to pick up steam. I always felt like Andrew was very straight up and gave us his honest opinion of the houses we saw, pointing out the positives and negatives of home locations, construction, layout, etc. At the same time, he never tried to force his point of view -- he always listened and carefully took note of our feedback. In the end, Andrew was the one who found our perfect home, even though my wife and I collectively had made searching for a home nearly a second job. In fact, we had written off the house when we saw the listing, but Andrew tacked it on to the end of a tour just for good measure and we're so glad he did! In short, if you want a great agent, go with Andrew. You won't be disappointed!

    "Andrew is everything you would want in an agent...and more!"

    Andrew is an all-star agent. From his passion and expertise on all things involved in real estate transactions, to his responsiveness at all hours, you can't go wrong working with Andrew. Andrew's experience in high-end building (and his degrees from UW in architecture and construction management)set him a part from other agents. He's not only a master of keeping track of the details, but also helped me imagine what my house could look like with some minor remodel work. Andrew is everything you would want in an agent...and more!

    "I Highly Recommend Zach and His Team!"

    Due to relocating for employment, myself and my family moved from Southern CA to Kirkland, WA Nov ‘21. We weren’t familiar with the area and we were nervous about purchasing a house. After doing some online research we were fortunate to find Zach McDonald to help us.Zach was so knowledgeable about the housing market and knew all the areas surrounding Seattle. We found a house and bought it under asking price. Fast forward to Jan ‘22, we decided that we were homesick and wanted to move back home. We contacted Zach McDonald and he immediately went into action. We had a list of dates for the stager, inspections and photos. Everything was so well organized by Zach and his team that we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The process was so easy and our house sold in 6 days after listing with multiple offers. I highly recommend Zach and his team!

    "Excellent knowledge"

    Doug has excellent knowledge of the property holdings in the Seattle area, an accurate meter for gauging the true value of a home and seeing its potential, the ability to match potential properties to a buyer's interests and lifestyle, a great feel for the where there is and is not room for negotiation in the sales process,and a great manner that keeps both sides at ease during the entire course of the transaction. His professionalism, honesty and integrity are impeccable. I have worked with Doug on five or six transactions with great satisfaction, would use him again myself, have regularly recommended him to others, and will continue to do so.

    "Committed and Professional"

    We purchased our home from Doug in 2015 when were moving from Seattle. Doug always made us feel like we were his only client—he was always available for us and made time to address all our questions. Since we were moving from out of town, we were only available for showings at odd intervals,but Doug always adapted to our schedule and made sure we got the information we needed. He was particularly astute in terms of evaluating properties, pricing, and has extensive knowledge of the area. He gave us a lot of background information to inform our choices and knew the details of neighborhoods and individual homes. Doug went the extra mile several times, including being at the house when Comcast did the internet installation prior to our move in.

    "I Would Work With Him Again!"

    I would absolutely use Zach again if I had the need. I was an out of state seller and it was difficult for me to keep focus on what needed to be done up in Washington state, when I was creating a new home way south in Arizona. A: Zach kept me completely informed on what was going on all the time. B: Zach managed jobs for me that I couldn't easily do as an out of state owner.He made sure the carpet was replaced and garbage/trash was removed from previous renters. I'm sure there were other things that he did but I can't recall at this point. Yes, it's been a couple of months. C: Zach kept me informed all the time of what was going on. He's very much into social media and keeping you informed with weekly calls and more if needed. D: From my neighbors point of view, he had the best Open House of all time.... I can't set 'your' expectations, but he had sandwiches and other refreshments during the open house that really impressed a lot of people. I was not disappointed with Zach at all. He is young, hungry, and willing to work with and for you. If I had the opportunity, I would work with him again. Kelli

    "I really couldn't recommend Andrew enough!"

    Around the time we started looking for a home we saw a property and used Zillow's visit the property feature. A bunch of agents contacted us, left multiple voicemails, put me on mailing lists, called from unknown numbers and left vague voicemails, none about the specific property.Andrew left one voicemail explaining that the property was pending but they we should give him a call if we'd like to see other homes. I called Andrew back and eventually my fiance and I visited him in his office near Northgate where he went over the home buying process, his credentials and answered every (exhausted) question we had. He was very patient, knowledgeable and honest. With our budget, we weren't getting a craftsman in Capitol Hill, but we could get something in Seattle that met our needs with out breaking the bank. Over the next few months we saw houses that were nice but far away, fixer-uppers, small houses, houses in a flight path, flipped houses with a premium price tag for a mediocre paint job, and others my fiance and I just didn't agree on. When he sent us a houses that we liked, he met or drove us to the property in a day or so. I was really surprised initially when he would show us all the flaws, which he saw right away with his history in construction management. One house had a really interesting plank wall, which he showed us was not insulated properly and would likely affect our energy bills. When a house had an undesirable characteristic, he was very honest about the probability of changing it and how much it would cost. We eventually found a house we really liked that was bid out of our price range. Andrew was able get a pulse on the bidding process, and we didn't even submit an offer. We were disheartened, but we didn't have to spend any money. We even backed out of an offer that got accepted after the inspection showed a multitude of problems. Andrew communicated that this was just part of the process and we moved on. Eventually we found another place we liked. Andrew arranged a pre-inspection and we submitted an offer. There were almost 10 other offers on the place, but Andrew put together a really solid offer letter and it was accepted. While researching the home buying process I found that sellers sometimes didn't accept an offer just because the offer wasn't put together well enough. Less than a month later and a document signing arthritic hand later, we had the keys. I really couldn't recommend Andrew enough!

    " He Was Always Responsive and Professional!"

    Working with Zach was a tremendous pleasure. He was exceptionally helpful in all aspects of the home buying process and I never felt like I was "missing something" or didn't understand what was next. He was always responsive and professional and it was a real pleasure getting to work with him.I can't imagine the process had we not gone with Zach as our realtor. I would highly recommend him to anyone interested or getting started. We started our process with pretty open ended ideas of what we wanted and Zach helped us figure out and narrow down our selection until we found the perfect place for us. If I'm ever on the market to buy or sell again, I certainly will choose Zach.
