    When you work with me, you get to work with a whole team!  You may not have the opportunity to meet everyone, but these are the people that assist me and allow me to serve you well:

    Dana Uyeta - Dana is a licensed Real Estate Agent who works with me at my John L. Scott office.  He works with buyers that call and ask about my listings and also supports me by assisting my clients when I am out of the office.

    Christie Merrill - Christie is another licensed Real Estate Agent that works with me at my John L. Scott office.  She works with buyers that call and ask about my listings and also supports me by assisting my clients when I am out of the office.

    Linda Timmerman & Amy Yim with John L. Scott, Kent North office -  These dynamic women support me in the office.  Whenever a fax or package comes in for me, they are quick to notify me of its arrival.  They also make sure my listings are input correctly into the NWMLS; input my order for AHS Home Warranties on all my listings; and they also do so much more. When you come in to meet me at my office, this fantastic team will greet you with a smile!

    Jessie Garber with Northpoint Escrow + Title in Seattle - I am so happy to work with Jessie and her team!  Northpoint is a completely paperless company, so all of the communication about the transaction is digital.  This creates a very neat and tidy electronic "paper trail," and it makes it easy to keep all the details of the transaction together.  When she handles the closing of one of my sales, things go incredibly smoothly and my clients and I really enjoy working with Carey and her team of professionals.

    Tom Browning with Pillar to Post Home Inspections - Tom the home inspector my clients and I prefer to work with.  I don't require that you use him, but if I were buying a home, he is the home inspector I would work with.  Tom will inspect your home with you there; take color photos of the home and any issues he sees; prepare a very detailed report for you and I ON THE SPOT; and he'll take the time to answer all of your questions and address your concerns.  Tom Browning truly cares - and being a former general contractor, he knows exactly how a home should be built.

    Kristy Rorie with Stage to Perfection - Kristy is the one I turn to when I need to Stage a home.  She is committed to helping clients in a caring and professional manner and provides a number of Staging services and options!  Kristy gives focused attention to the needs of each individual home seller and has a love of design and creativity that shows in her Staged homes. Her studies in Interior Design and her ASP Certification as a professional home stager bring both the credentials and know-how to her position.  Please visit her website by clicking the link on my "Recommended Links" page.

    Jake Dawson with Jake of All Trades - Jake is a licensed, bonded and insured General Contractor with over a decade of experience.  He is a proud member of the Better Business Bureau, and mainly works by referral only.  Many of the real estate agents I know have also selected Jake for their client's home repairs.  He specializes in building decks, painting, roofing,
