RealResidentialManifesto
At Real Residential, we believe every person deserves honesty
For most of us, a house is our single-greatest financial asset But a house is more than a structure for shelter and space it’s often also a home, and home is one of the most emotional assets we can own
The process of buying or selling a home can feel daunting, and it’s frequently cloaked in mystery and uncertainty especially in a competitive market like the Seattle metro Mortgage interest rates are unstable, properties are scarce, and bidding wars are tense But even amidst the chaos, it can also be a journey of joy in which you dream of your new life or experience financial opportunity Most of the time, the difference between a bad experience and a good one is the team supporting you
Our team is a select, nimble group of experts focused on our local communities and intentional about slow growth so we can provide the best service to our clients We’re on a mission to redefine the duty of care in real estate to mean more than just legal obligation For us, duty of care is a standard of how you treat people, and it starts with honesty Honesty means educating you about market conditions (so you can make your best decision) and advocating for you like you ’ re a family member. Honesty means telling you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. Honesty means doing everything in our power to make your dreams come true
Honesty means being real And we promise to be real with you
Real Advisory Board
At Real Residential, we believe the complexities of a home sale should seek innovation and advisory from a variety of talented sources We are fortunate to have an incredibly talented Advisory Board whose collective mindshare pushes us to raise the bar and redefine the duty of care in our local market Your talent behind the scenes!
