Hey Buyers, real talk about interest rates is that one of two things will happen…
You’ll either refi later if interest rates drop or do a happy dance if they climb.
Shopping for a new home is both exciting and stressful. While you can’t stop imagining what your new home will look like, you also have high expectations. You want to feel confident you’ll find a house that feels like home for the best possible price.
That’s why you deserve an experienced Realtor who has your best interest at heart, every step of the way. An area expert who invests time and energy into helping you scour the market for a home that fits your wants, needs, and budget.
A relentless advocate who will proactively and creatively negotiate on your behalf every step of the way, so you’re getting the best price and the most ideal terms in any market.
Even if it takes more work.
Even if it means more aggressive negotiating.
No matter what.
My promise to you: From our first meeting to the time we do our closing day happy dance, you and your dreams are my top priorities.
My fiancé and I decided to buy our first home this summer and we were both pretty nervous.
We were extremely happy to have Reshal on our team because it made the transaction easy for us. She had a ton of knowledge about the local market and with that knowledge was able to guide us to the perfect home. She bent over backwards to ensure my fiancé and I were taken care of. Reshal provided quality service throughout the whole process and was such a joy to work with. Even after closing, Reshal continued to reach out and make sure my fiancé and I were settled in just fine.
I would recommend Reshal to any of my family and friends because I know they would be great hands.
Reshal is simply the best real estate agent we had the pleasure to work with; she's super knowledgeable and her response time is impeccable. She turned a stressful process into a smooth process, as she worked tirelessly (day & night) to get us our dream home. Even after we bought the house, she made herself available for us, and we really appreciated that.
"Reshal went above and beyond for us. She was always quick to respond answering questions honestly about location, schools, properties.
The trust continued to grow. Our decision came down to two properties. We were up against another offer. Reshal worked her magic and our offer was accepted. She was with us every step of the way through inspection, financing and handing over the keys. Even now, I randomly text her for recommendations about things in the area and she’s always quick to respond. Reshal is nothing short of amazing! You can’t go wrong hiring her!"
Reshal’s Proven Approach to Finding Your New Home

01: Your Dream List
When we meet we’ll go over your list of “must-haves” and “nice-to-haves”. As a local pricing expert, I’ll give you a clear idea of what you can expect to find within your price range and preferred neighborhood. I’ll also walk you through the transaction timeline and answer allllll your questions. If you need a lender to start your preapproved I will connect you my trusted mortgage guru who is awesome with great rates. Then as soon as you’re preapproved and your budget is set, it’s go time!

02: The Hunt Is On
Ninety-three percent of homebuyers start their search online (aka scrolling their phone) and I’m willing to bet you’ve already got a few homes on your must-see list. Send them to me so I can check them out. As a longtime Realtor with rock-solid relationships and in-depth knowledge of the Snohomish County market, I keep my ear close to the ground to help identify possible opportunities you won’t find searching websites like Zillow or Redfin.
-
03: It’s Showtime
I’ll present you with a fully vetted shortlist of homes on a shared Pinterest-like board we’ll call your “Collection”. We can collaborate and comment in real time and then go on our HGTV-style adventure. As we walk through each home (virtually or in-person depending on the state of the world), we’ll create your list of room-by-room observations, likes, dislikes, and questions. Once you feel like you’ve found “The One,” I move into Negotiator mode.
-
04: Negotiator Mode
I’m known for writing offers that sellers can’t refuse in a multiple offer situation (even when they’re not the highest). During the craziest and most aggressive real estate market ever, my buyers wrote one, sometimes two, offers and they were pending on their new home. It’s seriously my super power. As a Certified Negotiator, I’m in my happy place strategizing an offer with you that’ll be accepted on your terms.
-
05: I’ve Got You 24/7
The moment your offer is accepted (yahooo!), I’ll be the one in your corner who’s professionally poised while things go “business as usual” but prepared to dive in if I see even the slightest red flag. I’m here to help you navigate through as-builts, HOA docs, the title report, the home inspection and more. If you need an expert’s advice on repairs I’ve got a long list of trusted pro’s you can call. I’m always three steps ahead protecting you (and your earnest money).

06: Welcome Home, You Home Owner!
On closing day, you’ll find me with keys to your new home in one hand and a heartfelt house warming gift in the other as I do a little happy dance. Now that you’re officially a home owner, my door doesn't close after you do because we are now best friends. I’ll be checking in to make sure you’re settled into your new home and share any contacts you may need, whether you need a contractor or my list of the best date night restaurants.
“Reshal was amazing with helping my wife and I buy our first home.”
The process seemed a bit scary since this was our first homebuying experience. Reshal made the whole process effortless for us and put us at great ease. Reshal is also a terrific negotiator. We actually almost did not buy our home due to a certain issue; however, Reshal was able to negotiate with the seller to take care of the problem for us. I can't stress enough HOW EASY SHE MAKES THE WHOLE PROCESS. I know behind the scenes she is making all the right phone calls, sending all the right emails, and keeping you in the loop the whole time. If I ever had any questions she was able to respond to me either by phone or email in an extremely punctual manner. What a great agent to have on your side.
WHATEVER YOU NEED, I’M HERE FOR YOU EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. NO MATTER WHAT.
(and yes, I’m already excited to celebrate your new home with you).
