This year I bought my first home, and Chris was an amazing help with the whole process!
I have been renting in Ballard for 5+ years now and wanted to invest in owning my own home instead of continuing to rent. I found Chris on Zillow, and he was very responsive. Within the week we were looking at properties. The things I liked most about Chris:
1. He was well informed and patiently talked me through everything about the market and the process of putting in an offer. He also connected me with a great local lender who helped me understand the mortgage application process.
2. Chris was straightforward about what it would take to get an offer accepted, but he was never pushy. We went through putting together an entire offer, and in the end he was very kind about me not submitting it and said it was good practice for me to get used to the process.
3. He was very responsive and always available for questions. We needed to set up a last minute pre-inspection for a home, and he was able to make that happen even during the Seattle blizzard.
Thanks to his help I beat out five other offers when I did submit, and I bought a home I am happy with.
