What others are saying…

Karen is a proud first-time buyer!

Karen was working two jobs when she met me. A single woman, she only had herself to rely on, and a clear goal – she wanted to save up and buy a house of her own. Her dream came true when she decided to lease-purchase a home that I had available.

She took great care of it when she lived there and was able to purchase it after just one year.

  • Tenant Purchases First Home After Lease-Option

The proud look on Karen’s face says it all. This is one of my tenants who was able to purchase her first home – on her own! – after leasing from me for a year! Congratulations, Karen!

Testimonials

This Lynnwood home garnered over 22 offers with our marketing plan, and we were able to create a “paper auction” which elevated the offer price by more than the entire listing commission.

Adam and Letty decided to move out of their home (along with their kids and pets) so they could really get it ready to put on the market. They rented a home nearby while they fixed up the paint and flooring – making this house shine.

Their strategy worked.

We got it on the market with a huge launch – professional photos and videos. Flyers, online ads, phone calls, emails.

Through our Open Houses, we met buyers at the property and helped cherry-pick the most interested so we could get their offers in on the property.

I negotiated through the night with a huge field of buyers. One buyer stuck with it, outbidding everyone else, and we finally signed the contract with him at 1:00AM in the morning – setting a new price record for this Lynnwood HOA Community.

Emily Cressey was outstanding during our home buying process in a market not advantageous for the buyer.

Moses and Roxanne moved from Texas to Washington and found a house with Emily's Help.
These Buyers Were Looking For A Very Specific Type Of Home – And We Kept Getting Out-Bid. When We Came Across One That Was Under-Priced, We Made An Early Offer And Got It Under Contract For Less Than Other Homes Had Been Going For.

“Emily Cressey was outstanding during our home buying process in a market not advantageous for the buyer. She made sure that we went through all the list of priorities in what we were looking for in a home. Emily went to work researching locations/competitive prices… reaching out to sellers agent when we lost on a bid to figure out where we fell short. Always on time at home tours and a text/phone call away at each and every point .Emily has been wonderful with after home buying resources and l have found a realtor for life !if you are buying a home… she is the real estate agent you want/need by your side. Thanks @Emily Cressey” – Roxanne

New Ownership and Exciting Possibilities! 

After following the Dave Ramsey plan and socking away a breathtaking down payment, John was ready to stop renting and move into a home of his own that was close to work.   This dog-friendly condominium neighborhood is right across the street from a park on the Lake – what a great place to make new friends!

We negotiated to have the seller pay to replace the sliding glass door (which had a blown seal) and worked with the HOA to address some items in the attic.  Glad to see your plans come together so quickly… and we found that beautiful top-floor unit you were hoping for!
