Rene has been outstanding in both our house sale and search. We have watched the local market for many years and chose to work with Rene because her houses always look great and are priced right. She was a savvy negotiator and adviser, helping us navigate through the multiple offers in the sale of our house. She is a professional with tact and integrity, but also very patient and kind, checking in with us at the height of our nail-biting, anxiety-ridden moments, to make sure we were OK. In our search, she has been there to guide us and remind us of our goals, not just trying to sell us a house, but really making sure it’s the right house for us. She has many local connections, getting us in to see houses before they hit the MLS and even an off-market sale opportunity. She manages to makes us feel like we are her only clients, always available and quick to respond to our many questions and inquiries. She knows what she’s doing! -Trang and Anh

We were so very impressed with Rene’s level of service. We felt so fortunate to have had Rene assist us with the special needs of our home. She rates far above any real estate professional we have ever dealt with. She was always courteous, respectful, persistent, knowledgeable and quick to answer our many many questions. She was also very sensitive to our feelings of leaving our home of 14 years and exhibited great patience during the search of our new home. -Linda Odette & Karen Mataya

We attempted to sell our home ourselves, and then through an agent from another company-both times unsuccessfully. Rene was referred to us and we were astounded to find that her talents far exceeded any dream we had of what a realtor could actually do for us! Rene conducted herself in a highly professional manner at all times and went out of her way to ensure we were always clear about what was before us. She created effective marketing materials, provided outstanding referrals of designers and inspectors to help facilitate the sale of our home, stood by us through every decision, and always fulfilled her promises of keeping us informed. Thanks to Rene, our house sold in one week at full price.

We met Rene in 2005 when we decided to put our home on the market. We specifically chose to interview her due to the impressive marketing materials that we had received in the mail from over the years, along with noticing how often her name appeared on Queen Anne For Sale & Sold signs. She did not disappoint! We sold our home in 5 days with 5 offers for far over the asking price. She then helped negotiate the purchase of our dream home, also on Queen Anne. Between 2012 and 2013 she assisted us in purchasing three rental homes on QA & Magnolia. 9 years after meeting Rene, we couldn’t imagine working with someone else. She is an exceptional agent. Walks the talk and is just a lovely person to deal with on multiple levels. We couldn’t imagine working with any other agent!

By the late afternoon, we owned the home of our dreams after being on the market only one day! We realize we’re very spontaneous, however we also know when it comes to views on Queen Anne-it’s something not to be taken lightly. Rene’s perseverance to have our offer presented and accepted paid off for us and we are extremely grateful for this reason. We have referred our neighbor to Rene and we’re confident she will take great care of them as she did for us.

Rene provided service beyond our expectations and made our experience of buying a home very enjoyable. Rene was a wonderful person to work with. She was always available, managed our expectations, and is a sincere, friendly and genuinely good person. We cannot thank her enough for all the kind things she’s done to make this experience smooth and comfortable while being there every step of the way. We will definitely refer Rene and Windermere to our friends. -Nate & Heidi Bledsoe
