Lydia's was very helpful with the sale of my late father's home. She was very timely in her response to calls, texts, and emails. Her advice to prepare the home for sale was very valuable.
Lydia is awesome! She shares her knowledge and expertise in a calming, reassuring way that really helped us understand our options and avoid the "freak-out" factor. I'm so thankful to her for helping us find and purchase our first home!
Over a 12 year period, I have purchased four properties and sold 2 with Lydia as my agent. Each time she has made me money based on her understanding of the market and her negotiation skills. Most recently I sold a house in Everett. She coached me on specific upgrades to do on the property. It wasn't much. She also coached me on exact timing to put it on the market. I paid close attention and I think the $3k in upgrades I did and the specific timing we chose increased my sale price by $40k compared to what it would have been. She is experienced and knows the market. 6 months ago I was trying to buy a new construction that was stretching my finances to the max. During closing there were some hiccups on the closing that caused a delay in closing and the builder really started to use aggressive negotiating tactics. They were threatening to pull out of the deal if I didn't give them more money. Things were really dicey for a week there. It was stressful. Lydia kept me up to date on the situation but get me emotionally isolated from the situation. In the end, she navigated the hard negotiated tactics and despite a delay on my end that cost the builder money based on the loan they had for the construction I did not lose anything on my end. She is a tough negotiator.
Lydia was fantastic! I relocated from Redmond, WA to Tacoma, WA-looking to downsize and be closer to the grandkids.. Lydia was referred to me by the agent who sold my house. I was not familiar with the Tacoma area so Lydia was great in helping me get to know the different areas. I would pick out homes that looked great online and since Redmond is a good hour to an hour and a half from Tacoma she would first go and video tour the outside of the homes and even the street/neighborhood and sometimes the alleys to give me a better understanding of the homes area. If I liked the area she would then video tour the inside of the home. This was VERY helpful as not to waste a lot of time driving to a home or area I would not like. After finding and making an offer with multiple bids-I won it! She was great with ALL the paperwork and available to help with anything I didn't understand. Thank you Lydia!!
Lydia is a seasoned professional. Her expertise in negotiation made me more money. She helped me sell my house for $30k above listing and helped me buy a place in the same market for $40k under list price.
Lydia is AMAZING! She was there every step of the way to answer our questions, do the research for us, and explore all the options we were interested in. She got us a home thay we LOVE (for under asking price) within about a month of initially starting our searching process. She's the best!
My husband and I were looking to move from Snohomish to Tacoma and Lydia came highly recommended to us from a friend. Lydia is knowledgeable and professional and listened to what our wants and needs were in a home. Lydia provided helpful detailed information, including video of neighborhoods of several homes before we took the long drive to Tacoma to look. When we found the right home, Lydia made the entire process easy and seamless from beginning to end. I would highly recommend Lydia to anyone Buying or Selling a home.
She found lots of listing in our price range and more importantly negotiated repairs to the home prior to our willingness to buy it. We inspected lots of potential homes and contacted us at the drop of a hat. Thanks Lydia
Lydia was a pleasure to work with. Assisted with advice in prepping our home for sale. She is a high energy person with a positive outlook. After one buyer failed to qualify for financing she walked us through the process to get us back on the market in a hurry and found us another buyer.
Lydia was vey caring and understanding with the entire process of selling our home, from the very start until the end. She has great morals and work ethics. She simply delivers with passion and respect. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to sell or buy a home.
