Dwellings Client Reviews

We can write great things about ourselves all day, but what really matters is what our clients have to say about us.  We take great pride in the kind and respectful words of our many satisfied customers. Here are just a few…

 

 

I feel I was very fortunate to find and work with Laura Montoya over the last year. I now own three properties in Seattle, two single family residences and one 6-unit apartment building. All three are managed by Laura and Dwellings Seattle. It was critical that I found someone with her talents as I live on the East Coast. I needed to have a manager that I trusted and respected running things in my absence. She manages the tenants so well – to quote from my recent email to her in dealing with a problematic client I had inherited from a previous owner: “well done, Laura, again I appreciated the way you brought me into the situation and resolved it – I really respect your management instincts and the way you relate to the tenants !!”

I’ve known Annette on a professional and personal basis for a few years now and can say that she is one of the most knowledgeable agents I have ever met.  She’s a pleasure to be around and I learn something from here every time I see her.  I know that she and her office Dwellings are going to do amazing things together.

My wife and I were preparing to leave for an extended posting in a foreign country. Naturally, we had a Plan A regarding what to do with our house once we left. Just as naturally, Plan A didn’t work. That left us scrambling for a Plan B with little time left. 

A friend of ours recommended Dwellings Seattle for property management and we couldn’t be happier. Laura understood the time pressure we were under, met with us right away, took the ball and ran with it. Her competence, professionalism, and knowledge of the housing market made us feel comfortable with leaving our house in her hands. And being as far away as we are, Laura’s many emails and phone calls have been invaluable. They allow us to relax knowing that we’ve got someone we trust watching over our investment.

I was getting ready to move to Seattle from San Francisco and was looking for a place to rent. I knew nothing about the Seattle area let alone where I should live. I scoured craigslist and found several places that seemed interesting, but felt the need for some local expertise. I sent emails to a few property management groups and Dwellings was the first to get back to me. 

I was contacted by Annette (who was AWESOME) within a few days. I was offered a free MLS search, which I took just to see if she understood what I was looking for. The results included  6 properties, all of which were the type I was looking for so I decided to enlist their services.

I scheduled a 3 day trip to view properties and was trusting in Annette to be efficient with my short time available and to find properties suitable to me. Upon arrival, I found out that she had 20+ properties ready to be viewed. Her selection was great and gave me lots of options location wise, quality, and price. Complemented by Annette’s expertise of the West Seattle neighborhood, I eventually found the perfect place for me.

The property I settled into was not originally part of the list that we were going. The listing actually became available the night before my last day of tours. Even as we were touring, Annette was actively looking for more listing that might pop up. That was the difference for me.

After finding the listing, Annette helped me through the application process and did everything she could to make sure that I got the property I wanted. Again, she went the extra yard.

Overall, I love my new place and extremely happy with Annette/Dwellings. She was truly professional and constantly went over and beyond her duties to make sure I found the best place for me. If you need help finding a rental, Dwelling is great choice.

My wife found an ad for Dwellings online and then on Facebook.  We read about this company and I ended up giving Meg a call.  I felt immediately at ease, and made an appointment for a few nights later.  We are currently working with Meg to find a new place to lease, and she’s been working hard to try and find a place that fits our wants/needs.  It’s nice to have someone that is exceptionally nice, fun and helpful.  We look forward to going to different places with her….. and even our little puppy loves her Auntie Meg.  If you’re looking to rent/lease/buy a place in Seattle and surrounding areas, give Dwellings a call. They work hard for their clients, and they are extremely friendly.

I have used Meg at Dwellings as my property manager for my duplex for about a year now. I had several other property managment companies before Dwellings and there is really no comparison. The service I get and the respect with which Meg treats everyone is a rare commodity. I plan on selling my residence in August and will definetly use Dwellings for the Sale.
