We have worked with Sue buying and selling our home. She was always very professional. She helped us in our first time home buying process and guided us the entire way. When it came time to sell our house we knew she would be the perfect listing agent. She guided us on staging and had beautiful pictures taken of our home. Our home went pending in 5 days and had multiple offers. I highly recommend Sue and her team.

Dan was tireless in the search to find my home. He did not hesistate to make time to look at properties when they came up. He was diligent in doing the research and making sure the homes that I looked at were priced appropriately and that we didn’t get into something that wasn’t fair or a lopsided deal. He always acted in my best interest, highly recommended!

Sue was my property manager from 2013 to 2016. I switched companies with her when she started her own and I valued her services so much I partnered with her to sell my house. As a local, she has invaluable knowledge of DuPont and the surrounding cities to give atmospherics on the market. However, she was flexible enough to support my wishes even if they weren't always congruent with her advice. Sue was always completely responsive to any needs that I had and proactive in maintaining a happy tenant while always looking out for my best interests as the owner. Sue is the best agent I have worked with in 5 years of leasing, renting, buying, and selling homes. I will refer anyone moving to the area to Sue and intend to partner with her again if I ever return.

Kristin was an excellent resource to have. She walked us through the process of buying a home, and provided insights and other advice from her experience. We found it invaluable to have her provide a "first pass" objective look over the homes we toured, so that while we considered the more subjective feelings of a home, she was able to alert us to possible challenges and considerations. As we went through the process we developed a great rapport with her. She helped with the offer process and provided great advocacy that helped us get the home we really loved. We would not hesitate at all to recommend her to anyone.

Working with Sue from start to finish was effortless, and she was a pleasure to work with. Her obvious knowledge and experience working in the area was a great asset in the process. She will be your advocate in the process. If you have the opportunity to work with Sue, take it.

A home is probably the most significant investment a family makes. There is a huge piece of mind when you know that the sale of your home is handled by someone who is trustworthy, dedicated, kind, and incredibly competent. Sue Larsen is all of that and more! When we had to leave our home she helped us find tenants and helped with the leasing on several occasions over the years, and when it came time to sell she was absolutely the best Real Estate agent I have ever worked with! She went above and beyond making sure the house was just right (on short notice) to put the house on the market, and we accepted an offer in just a few days. The transaction was the smoothest I have ever experienced, she didn't miss a beat. I strongly recommend Sue Larsen!

Carolyn has done a fantastic job of managing our home. She was referred through a neighbor and we are so glad we decided to work with her. We are a military family and currently live in GA and Carolyn has gone above and beyond to make things easy for us from afar. There are lots of property managers out there but I can't imagine anyone being as easy to work with, quick to respond and professional as Carolyn. I would say that is true as a home owner and for our renters.

Sue Larsen is an amazing realtor and person! She helped us buy a home and then she helped us sell the same home. If I could give her 100 stars I would, I could call her at midnight and she would answer the phone. When I was worried about EVERYTHING about our transaction she kept me calm!!!!! If you need to buy or sale a home or any advice please call SUE!

We would like to recognize Ms. Brittany Ulrich as an outstanding realtor and our property manager for over the past 3 years. She just recently helped us sell our home in Lacey, WA. Brittany had always kept us up to date on all of our property issues and concerns. We are a military family and lived in Virginia while Brittany managed our home in Washington state for over three years. My wife and I couldn’t be happier with Brittany, she is an absolute Rock Star and gets the job done every time! We would highly recommend Brittany to anyone that is looking to rent or sell their home. She is a proven realtor and a leader with a solid track record, she will not let you down. Brittany delivers every time!
Brittany, on behalf of our family, a huge thank you!
Very respectfully,
Arslan and Patricia C.

Sue Larsen is absolutely AMAZING!!! I have previously purchased 3 homes but my most recent purchase with Sue has hands down been the best home buying experience. We currently purchased a home in a seller's market and Sue did everything she could to help us secure a great home. Sue is truly a professional who loves what she does and represents the best interests of her clients. She knows every aspect of Lacey and DuPont and she provided us with a list of pros/cons for each house we toured. I just sold our home in Maryland and wish I could clone her to help us with our sale in Maryland. There is nobody I trust more than her when it comes to real estate. I am definitely planning on using Sue again when we ultimately sell our home. It was truly a pleasure working with her!

I just had the best home buying experience with Sue especially in this crazy market! She is a true professional that truly cares about the interests of her clients. She is honest, responsive, and super thorough in her analysis of comparable sales and pros and cons of the home to help you make an informed decision. I wholeheartedly trust Sue to help me buy a home across the country because she goes above and beyond to help me whenever possible. I highly recommend her!!! Don't look any further!

If you are looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuine real estate professional contact Sue! She managed our rental property for almost 10 years and then helped us sell our home. During those 10 years she was very easy to communicate with and resolved any issues that came up immediately. Our home was always in good hands. She made the rental and selling process incredibly easy and we could not have done it without her knowledge and guidance.

Carolyn was our property manager for 4 years and then our real estate agent when we sold our house in 2021. She’s always been easy to communicate with and had our best interest at heart. We are going to miss her but we know if we ever decide to buy in the area again, we will be contacting her.

Dan Benz is an outstanding realtor and comes highly recommended. He is the epitome of honesty and professionalism, and his low pressure approach to real estate sales put this seller at ease. His ability to negotiate a fair market price, and knowledge of the local market, were spot on. His timely level of communication made our real estate sale transition seamless. In other words, Dan’s got skills!!! The sale of our home occurred during a period in which safety measures and social distancing were in place. Dan followed all rules to protect both our family and prospective buyers. I would highly recommend Dan to represent you for your real estate needs. I have no doubt you will be happy with the results. NextHome should be proud to have an employee like Dan represent their company.

Kristin has been assisting our family for over 12 years now. She went above and beyond to find us a great home and made recommendations on our purchase in 2010. Since then, because of her knowledge base, we are now able to sell our home for a significant profit. She also facilitated a seamless selling of our home as we move on to a new chapter in life.
If you want to ensure you get a good home, at a good price, and without any confusion, then you want Kristen. She will be honest and make recommendations that are in your best interest, not hers. Her selfless service is a testament to her hard work and education as well as the company she works for. I wouldn’t have chosen any other agent and blessed we chosenKristen from the beginning. Seriously, you don’t want anyone else. You wanna make money/profit? Choose Kristen. You wanna get a good deal and a beautiful home to fit your family? Choose Kristen. I can’t imagine where we would be without her.

Sue Larsen was our realtor for when we were selling a home in Dupont. Sue was very honest and knowledgeable about the condition of our house and the best price we could get.

Dan Was amazing! I can honestly say there could not have been a better job done. I was well informed the entire process and given great advice many times without feeling any kind of pressure. The most impressive quality Ive seen in Dan was his true dedication to making myself and family happy and comfortable during the entire home buying process. He knew the answers to almost every question I had asked (and I asked alot of insignificant questions) , and for the questions he did not know, he went way above and beyond to get me the answers. I highly recommend Dan! You couldnt ask for a better realtor that has your best interest at heart.

I absolutely recommend Kristin. My husband and I sought her out to help us sell our home. We had a really short timeline to depart Washington. Kristin developed a plan and helped us stay on track from preparing the house for photos end of June to closing with asking price beginning of August. My advice for anyone hiring Kristin, do your part as the buyer or seller and let Kristin take care of the rest...she will guide you through the process with ease. She will give you all the information you need to make decisions as well as share her thoughts but she will not make decisions for you. Kristin went above and beyond to help us. I can't say enough good things about her, but I will say, if it was possible for her to help us purchase our next home...we would definitely seek her out again. Kristin possesses the attitude and demeanor of someone you want on your team...no matter what the mission is.

I am so thrilled to finally have my first home! Dan was an amazing realtor to work with. First off, he's just a very nice and genuine person. We viewed quite a few houses in my home buying journey. He was always very punctual for viewings - always arrived before I did. If I had questions about a property, he didn't hesitate to reach out to the seller's agent. I really appreciate how patient and low pressure he was with me. I did not feel rushed or pressured into making an offer. But once I did decide to make an offer, he was on top of it right away. After my offer was accepted, he still followed up with me and made sure I understood the next steps. If I had questions during the buying process, he would respond to me quickly. If you're looking for an honest and efficient realtor, I highly recommend working with Dan!

I worked with Sue and her team at Better Properties DuPont for 3+ years as the property manager of my house in DuPont. The amazing experience I had with her throughout those years led me to enlist her services again when I decided to sell my house in February 2019. Her market knowledge and expertise allowed us to quickly prepare, list, and sale the house (from start to finish in 45 days) all while I was remote in a different state. I highly recommend working with her for buying, selling, or renting your property

Sue is topnotch when it comes to real estate market in DuPont, Washington. She lives and works in the local community, and has an uncanny way of reading the local market even during uncertain times. We started working with Sue as the market peaked and finished as it declined in late summer 2022. Sue got us the most for our house and more importantly helped us sell quickly when many other similar houses languished on the market. We have bought and sold houses in many other markets and our experience with Sue was one of our best.

Sue Larsen is hands down the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and very punctual. I can’t say enough good things about her. I have rented from her, purchased a home with her, and sold a house through her. I whole heartedly recommend Sue for all your property needs!

Sue has been great. She is knowledgeable of the city and the process of buying a home. Sue is very invested in the city that she works in and lives in. There was no pressure to buy; now, later or not at all. Anytime we had a question she was able to answer it. If you are in the market to buy/rent/sell, Sue is a definite!

Brittany did an amazing job helping us find the perfect home for our growing family. We are still in awe at how perfect this house is for us. Cannot express enough just how great it was to work with her, and what a relief it has been to know that this whole process is in her competent hands. She is super organized, an excellent communicator, and has a solid grasp on the local market which was invaluable in this process. We highly recommend Brittany to anyone looking for a home in the DuPont area and beyond. Work with Brittany! You won’t regret it!

I cannot recommend Sue Larsen highly enough. She was recommended to my wife and I by a friend of ours who had a similarly great experience. She is a knowledgeable professional that has seemingly endless patience with buyers and sellers of real estate in today's market (ours was an unusual real estate transaction, and both expertise and patience were needed). Take your chances with someone else if you want, but I would recommend speaking to Sue if you want it done right!

Kristin has been exceptional, she helped us in the rental we are in now along with finding our new home. I cannot express how excellent she have been throughout the entire process. Start to finish she was there for all our questions and concerns no matter how big or small.

Sue Larsen had been taking us to a couple of different houses in the Lacey Olympia area. My wife saw a listing on the web on Wednesday night. We called Sue at 8:30 on Thursday morning. Sue made arrangements for us to see the house at 11:30. Ginny read the description to me as we drove to Lacey. It occurred to us that this particular house was not going to be on the market very long. Sue Larsen was always available to help us. She met us at the house and after our tour we went out to lunch. Upon reflecting on our discovery of this incredible house we made an offer. By hook and by crook our offer was accepted and we are moving in on Tuesday. If we had not had the excellent partnership of Sue Larsen and her years of experience this house would not now be our home. She held our hands throughout the entire process, guiding us each step of the way. She made this sale possible and made us very happy. Thank you Sue Larsen for your expertise.
Thank you again,
Ron and Ginny

Kristin went above and beyond to keep us up to date on the sale of our house, despite the fact that we were 3000 miles away. She met ALL our needs and sold our house in record time. If you have the chance to have her sell or buy your next home, we highly recommend her.
Thank you Kristin and have a Great 2022 sesaon

The experience we had working with Kristin was nothing short of astonishing. Being well versed in her field, Kristin poseses a wealth of knowledge that she readily shares to assist her clients during the house hunting process. I believe this derives from her relentless search of information on topics big or small. If Kristin didn't have the answer or insight to answer the complexities at hand, she went above and beyond to find it in a timely manner. During the long process we went through to find our house, we always felt Kristin had our absolute best interests at heart. The care and kindness she showed our family was unsurpassed. The resources and colleagues Kristin referred us to excelled on every level within and beyond thier fields. I couldn't imagine a better house buying process. We are incredibly thankful to have met and worked with Kristin. She is a key asset in her profession and a pillar of society.

We were referred to Sue in 2011 when we were looking to buy our first home. She was by our side throughout the whole process. A few years later we had to move out of state due to receiving military orders. We rented our house out and Sue was our property manager. She was wonderful at managing our property. Being out of state, we knew we didn't have to worry about our rental property. We just recently sold that same home and of course Sue was our realtor again. From buying to selling and having tenants in between, Sue has been wonderful to work with. She is very knowledgeable about home buying, selling and property management. We trusted her 100% and have had a great experience from the beginning.

First of all I would like to say that I normally don't leave any reviews to anyone(sometimes too busy, sometimes too lazy), however Brittany is a special-case scenario. I have met her two years ago, she helped me to get my property for rent. Let me tell you, she was a 5th agent I interviewed and I've noticed right away that she was very professional and caring person. She possessed one most important quality nowadays - "attention to detail". I immediately realized that she was the person who I could trust.
Never had one single problem with our team. A year later she helped me to sell the property, let me tell you, this young lady can move mountains: we were able to sell the property without any issues, closed within a month, operating remotely: I've already moved to a different state and so Brittany managed everything on my behalf, i wouldn't trust my home to anyone else except for her. If I could go back in time and do it again, Brittany would be the only one person I would consider to do business with. Most importantly she is extremely passionate about what she does. Brittany is the person to go to for an advice, quote; she has a solid network and can connect you with helpful people in the area. She truly cares and helped me from start to finish. I believe she is a priceless asset to NextHome company.

Here is our story. We contacted Sue on a Friday afternoon, Sunday she came by to view our home with a cost analysts worksheet. Things started moving quickly on our schedule. In two and a half weeks we hit the market running, close to twenty showings in four day's, entertaining offers on the evening of the fourth. We were very impressed with Sue's professional personalized service from the beginning of our interaction. She provided near instant response to all questions, provided information and guidance on areas unknown to us. Being a whole service professional Sue also found us a rental home why we plan our next move. We have had only smiles with our 5 star experience.

Carolyn was a fantastic facilitator for helping me close on my new home! As a first time buyer I was anxious the process would be difficult for me to navigate, but Carolyn's expertise and confidence made everything feel manageable and orderly and I am grateful that although I did not know much about what needed done she kept me well informed and on track to ensure we had everything covered. She went above and beyond to give me advise and recommended follow up questions for me to bring to the property managers that went outside just the buying process, showing vested interest in my relationship with my new community beyond just closing the sale. I highly recommend her whether you are new to home ownership or looking for a partner to help boost your odds in a competitive industry!

Kristin Schafer is an amazing realtor. She not only guided us through our whole house sale but also made recommendations while the sale was pending. She was chosen from three different realtors and does not disappoint. If we buy another house in the area She will be my go to and should be everyone else's also.

After owning our home for just a little over a year my wife and I decided to move back home to Maine. Our stress level was extremely high due to concerns related to the COVID pandemic and the possibility of not having enough equity to come out of a sale in the positive. Not only did she provide great pointers to prepare our house for showings but her knowledge of the market in DuPont far surpassed all other realtors we had spoken with as well. Look no further than Sue Larsen to list your house if you want top dollar and a relatively stress free experience! Thanks Sue, you are truly the best!
"
- Patrick Sebce

We both feel incredibly fortunate to have decided to work with Sue and her team. Prompt, professional, and trustworthy, Sue proved capable in every respect. She consistently and clearly communicated with my wife and I; at no point were we left wondering what to expect. In the end, our house sold for exactly our asking price while Sue navigated the numerous details required to finish out the deal. If you are looking to buy or sell a home in Tacoma, DuPont, or Lacey, I can not recommend Sue Larsen enough!

Our family had an incredibly experience working with Brittany. This was our first home purchase, and Brittany was responsive to every question we had as we navigated the process. She made herself quickly available in this crazy housing market, which gave us confidence we wouldn’t ever miss an opportunity. She made this process feel accessible and helped us stay positive despite some outside obstacles. I would absolutely recommend her to friends seeking to buy a home in this area.

Sue is honest, professional, knowledgable, and is always looking out for ways to save her client's money. We converted our property into a rental after my husband was injured in Iraq in 2007. Sue took great care of it, we had very little issues and it was occupied with little to no interruption for the past seven years. The tenants Sue found respected our property and never missed a payment. Sue handled everything so I could focus on my husband's recovery and medical board at Walter Reed. She was an amazing gift in my time of need. This year we wanted to make a change and Sue walked us through the entire sale process from Virginia. It was seamless, with her expertise we were able to time it perfectly where we only missed a few weeks of rent before our condo sold. Sue's attention to detail and network of home repair professionals helped keep things moving along quickly. We got our asking price and were able to walk away with some money in our pockets thanks to Sue and her years of careful property management and expert realtor instincts. I wish I could have taken her with me to all of our duty station. She is by far the best realtor and property manager I've ever had the pleasure to work with.

Sue is amazing. She was recommended to us in purchasing our home and did not miss a beat. Over the years we kept in contact and always talked when we saw each other while in town. When we went to sell our home there was no thought of who we wanted to represent us. Sue is a great agent who will always be there for you.

Kristin was great to work with. She really understood what we were looking for. It was obvious that she was more concerned about finding the perfect home for us than making a quick sale. She answered questions and was very honest about the properties we looked at. You can't go wrong if you chose Kristin as your realtor!

Sue is the absolute best! Not only did she help us every step of the way in getting our house sold, she made sure that it was done in a way that took into consideration our family’s needs. Communication was excellent and she responded to us quickly and assuredly. She has a great reputation in the community and it shows in the quality of her team and the other real estate professionals she brings in to help get your house sold (I.e., the photographer). Finally, Sue is personable, relatable, and overall has a wonderful personality and demeanor that makes working with her a healthy and positive experience. With Sue’s help we’re ready for our next chapter as empty nesters! We highly recommend Sue for all of your real estate needs, whether it be buying, selling, or property management, as she was our property manager for our house almost 20 years ago!!!

Sue is the best. She went above and beyond as I went through a very stressfull time with my lender. She always made herself available and was always pleasant and helpful. I could not have gotten through the process of buying my house without her help and encouragement!! I would recommend her and in fact will tell anyone who needs a realtor that Sue is the BEST!

I found Sue on zillow and after some prior experiences I was a little hesitant. However not for long! This was an absolutely amazing experience. We searched and found the perfect home and our luck didn't seem to be with us. Someone beat us to the punch and had made an offer. Sue went to bat for us and with her awesome expertise our offer was accepted before it could go to a bidding war, she always answered her phone and worked day and night to get us into our new home. Sue was a blessing and I recommend her highly.

Sue Larsen was extremely helpful to me and my family when looking for our home. We were living in Germany when we started looking for a home, and she would view properties for us, send us videos, and was very honest about the condition of the homes. Throughout the process she would go above and beyond to assist us, and ensured we understood each part of the process. The area where we wanted to buy was a sellers market and homes were going fast. Sue was always there finding us new homes to look at, and contacting other realtors to help us find the right home. In the end, she helped us for over four months, and was always there ready to help us, not only by finding our forever home, but giving us great information on the area, home care, and local schools. She was always honest and transparent throughout the whole process. I have worked with other real estate professionals while buying other homes, but by far, Sue has been the best.

As first time sellers of our home, the process was more than a little nerve wracking. However over the course of the selling process Sue there step by step ensuring everything was done with according to procedure and excellence. She made selling our house easy with constant communication, clear expectations of what would happen, knowledgeable input, honestly and integrity. I would recommend Sue to anyone who is interested in real estate services, and if I was not moving I would enlist her services over and over again. Thank you Sue!

We are a military family, completely new to the area and the PNW in general. We contacted Sue from our previous duty station (overseas) and she was extremely helpful in helping us narrow down what we were looking for in a home in this area. She consistently sent us listings that met our criteria, updating the list almost weekly. Sue answered our questions promptly and in a very personable manner. I would highly recommend Sue to anyone I know moving here. She made us feel like her only clients, even though I knew she had others. Even after the close of our house purchase, she has checked in on us, and still answers questions we have about the area.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Sue Larsen is so knowledgeable, professional, patient and kind. She helped navigate us through purchasing our first home and I can't imagine going through the experience with any other realtor. We are incredibly grateful to have her guidance and expertise through the process and continually pointing out things we never would have considered. She is truly a top notch realtor and person.

I am so happy I decided to use Sue to sell my rental property, with 6 offers, she sat down with us and made sure we got the best sales price we could get. I would definitely do it all over again and use Sue. She keeps you up to date on everything that is happening and makes the sale of any home super easy for any Seller. I recommend anyone looking to sell or buy their NextHome use Sue!

Carolyn and Sue did a great job for selling my old property. They decorated the empty house with warm and pretty ornaments, made people feeling the house like home. Therefore, the house got multiple offers after 3 days on the market. The professional advices helped us to pick up the best offer among all. During the selling process, they would answer your questions timely and professionally, it saved me a lot of time and closed deal quickly. Thank you very much.

We highly recommend Kristin for all your real estate needs. She makes the entire process seamless from start to finish. She also knows quality photos sell your home and the value of capturing your buyer in a single click. The majority of buyers see and fall in love with their future home online, through photos and video before stepping foot inside.
Kristin is always punctual at returning phone calls and will go to bat for you when selling or buying your home. Most importantly, she’ll get the best value for you. Call Kristin today, you’ll be happy you did.

She went above and beyond our expectations, making herself always available with her knowledgeable and candid advice. Her local connections to contractors to perform work in a pinch was invaluable. In addition to her technical expertise, she was an absolute pleasure to work with. Selling our home was a daunting task for us, and she guided us through the entire process with grace and ease.

Working with Sue to sell our home has been a great experience. She has been nothing but professional while working as our property manager the last two years. We received monthly updates on any payments, maintenance or other concerns for our property as well as annual reports. Whenever there was an emergency we received timely updates, recommendations and options. When we decided to sell our property Sue laid out our options in detail helping us to determine the best way forward. Sue explained our options on how to list our home and went through the added effort of staging and preparing our home to receive the highest possible offers. As first time sellers she helped layout and explain the offers made by potential buyers to help us make the best possible choices. Throughout the whole process she has been patient and flexible in accommodating our work schedules to meet each deadline. The entire process has been seamless from start to finish and we highly recommend working with Sue and and the NextHome team for any real estate needs.

Wow! You want Dan on your side!
I had a unique home buying experience because my husband and I are buying are first house while he’s deployed. I knew nothing about the home buying process or VA loans going into it. My husband being in another county and time zone didn’t help matters. Dan was so patient with both of us and really helped us understand not only the process and the VA but also the crazy market right now. We were looking for a home in the $400k range so we were facing tons of competition. After almost 6 weeks, dozens of showings and 5 offers, he got us accepted on the perfect house! If you aren’t convinced yet, Dan and his team made some serious magic happen and were able to get us closed in 17 DAYS! With a VA loan. Unheard of.
I would absolutely recommend Dan to everyone, first time home buyers and VA buyers in particular. He made the process easier, explained things super well, was absolutely on top of everything I needed before and after we got an offer accepted. He’s super direct, honest, thoughtful, professional and punctual! Thank you so much Dan!

Fantastic Experience! I have been working with Sue Larsen for 8 years. Over the years she has been a tremendous help in finding a home to purchase, and then eventually renting it out for 6 years. During that time, our renters were excellent and the house was kept up in great shape through her diligence and attention to details. When it was finally time to sell, she advised on the right price and the right timing. Thanks in large part to Sue's detailed planning, the home sold quickly and the 6 weeks of activities leading up to the closing were very smooth. This was all done while I was living on the other side of the country.

As a first time home seller, working with Dan on the sale was a wonderful experience. With his help, we were able to sell the home for more than I thought I would ever get.
Dan had solid advice to help me prepare the house to sell and he was always available when I had questions.
He listened to my concerns and always provided the right guidance and options, including recommending the right professionals to do the work I needed in the house to get the best price.
Communication is key, and Dan kept me informed on what was happening throughout the process. He provided a timetable of what was going to happen each step of the way.
Dan brings his vast knowledge of what works to sell a house, shows the utmost professionalism and remains easy to speak with. His level of customer satisfaction second to none!
I was extremely satisfied with his service and I would recommend Dan to anyone.

This group did not steer me wrong. I took note of the many recommendations for a realtor you all shared some time ago and sought out Sue Larsen (owner and broker). Met with her in December to start our search and closed on our house today. From start to finish she was amazing!!! Extremely thorough and detailed, answered our every text, call and email quickly, and walked us through the entire process as if we were her family and only clients! Her work ethic and integrity is matchless. Hands down, she's the one I'd use again and would recommend!!

Sue helped us buy our first home in 2016. She was AMAZING! We knew little to nothing about buying a home and were on a time crunch! She got us in right away and helped us smoothly navigate the process. We got the home we really wanted!!! We loved her so much that over 4 years later we called her again to sell that very same home for us! Same experience! So smooth and she is so knowledgeable and really worked to get us the best sale price on our home!

This was our first time buying a home and I was nervous about many things of course, but it's less stressful with a good realtor. We truly lucked out with the realtor we got. Sue was wonderful throughout the entire process and incredibly knowledgeable. She was always available when we needed her. I would recommend her or any of her staff to my friends/colleagues. If we're ever going to buy another home in the area, I will go Sue without a doubt.

We recently decided to sell an occupied rental home. Dan helped us through the eviction process, which was very helpful. The home was in pretty bad shape and we decided to sell as is. Dan gave us honest, positive encouragement about the sale.
Dan was very knowledgeable about the market and sent us a lot of information about comps, etc. We were completely comfortable with his recommendation about the pricing of the house.
Dan was very responsive to every question we had. He kept us up-to-date on offers and helped guide us through the process of the final sale. He has a very helpful team he uses to complete sales.
We would definitely use Dan again and highly recommend him.

We have worked with Kristin over the past 3 years. Kristin has found reliable renters for 2 rental homes. Every time, she provides valuable feedback and information, and ensures that all contracts are thorough. We also purchased our new home with Kristin in April, 2015. The home was a short-sale, and Kristin worked on the negotiation for 6 months! In the end, we were able to close on the new home when we needed. Throughout the process, we were kept well-informed, but did not have to worry as we knew Kristin had our best interests in mind. While looking for houses, Kristin was professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. We valued her expertise and experience. Kristin is a real estate agent we can trust, and is one we will use in the future!

Sue is the epitome of what you are looking for in a realtor. She is personable, efficient, smart, and just a great person to know.

Kristin went above and beyond for our military family. She was knowledgable all along the way and helped us to find the perfect house from across the country. She wanted to get to know our family and our needs in depth and fought for our best interest. I can't say enough good things about her professionalism, and knowledge. I will not be surprised to see her face on any top sales magazine because she has to be the best agent we have ever had. To preface this we move every three years so we have worked with a few.

Brittany helped us with purchasing our new home in Tumwater. She is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about her job, and will find you an ideal home that fits your needs. She is well versed in military life as well, and I'd say there's no one better to work with if you are a service member. Whether you are military or not, I'd recommend Brittany to anyone looking to purchase or sell their home.

We interviewed 3 agents before choosing Brittany. She was very prepared from the get go with explaining her strategy, explaining the selling process and she had a lot of confidence she could get our house sold in the time frame we were looking at. After our meeting, she went home that night and did more research so she could make a more educated recommendation on the listing price after actually seeing the process. By the time we woke up, she had sent us an email with her suggestion. From the moment we decided to go with her, she did everything to make the process as easy as possible and as transparent as possible. She was available for estimates when contractors came by when we weren’t home, she had a list of trusted contractors and communicated consistently and quickly. She staged the house beautifully. We had second thoughts about selling because we fell in love with our house all over again! She was always just a text message or phone call away. She really knows the industry. Definitely would contact her again if we were selling/buying. We highly recommend Brittany Ulrich!

We went and did it! We are officially homeowners! At the top of the market, finding and purchasing a property was challenging. We began our journey six months ago while exploring the housing market. Thanks to a recommendation from a friend who had recently acquired a home, I was able to connect with Mr. Dan Benz, a real estate agent at Next Home South Sound. His professionalism, honesty, calm demeanor, communication and negotiating skills are all qualities that he possesses. Dan was not only an outstanding realtor, but he was also a great support system. His knowledge of the current local market and pricing aided us in better understanding of what to expect throughout the process. Dan put up a great fight to help us get the house once we found what we were looking for. His aggressive follow-up once we were under contract allowed us to close under three weeks, keys in hand. Dan and his team at Next Home South Sound are incredible, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home; you won't be disappointed!

She worked tirelessly to find us the home we were looking for and superbly coordinated the closing process to meet our timeline. Sue is a great negotiator with excellent communication skills that absolutely kept our needs and interests in mind throughout the entire process.

We first met Sue when we moved to the area and she was the property manager of the house we were leasing. After seeing her professional skills and overall amazing personality, we knew that we wanted to work with her when we decided to purchase a home. We really put her through the ringer with looking at several homes, some of them a few times each, and she was always so flexible and more than willing to accommodate our needs. She was so very helpful with her vast knowledge of virtually anything pertaining to buying or selling homes and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. We plan to eventually rent out the home we purchased and definitely will look to Sue

Sue was referred to me as an agent who was extremely knowledgeable in the Dupont area and could assist me in finding a quality tenant for my house there. I used her "lease up" service to find and place a tenant for us. She also assisted in taking care of at least a dozen different issues left over from a bad experience we had with our previous property manager and tenants. Rock solid performance, trustworthy, knowledgeable, very friendly and a real professional who delivers. Couldn't of asked for more and will use her for my next home purchase and to find additional tenants when the time comes.

Great experience overall and would recommend without hesitation.

Carolyn was extraordinary. While we were looking at homes, she was upfront and honest and pointed out pros and cons of homes, often without being prompted.
With this being our first home, she walked us through every step of the process and consistently went out of her way to ensure that our needs were met. She communicated on a regular basis, by phone, email and text message and we felt that she kept a healthy balance and knew when conversations required the various means of communication.
Furthermore, she communicated on our behalf with the lenders, title company and other real estate agent and placed very little pressure on us. We do not believe that we could have gotten this home without her diligence and professionalism. We are forever grateful for her and the assistance she provided to our family!

Just to be clear, Sue Larsen is an exceptional human being. Not only did she help me sell my home within 4 days I received two competing offers, one of which is now the new owner. During the last 10 years she also provided an additional service (One Time Property Manager) in order to ”find a tenant for rent” at my property, which she excels with no doubt. Being a first time seller, Sue walked me through the entire process step by step by over the phone, text and email while we were both geographically separated. Additionally, she still maintained communication while she was overseas during the holidays and had a coworker on standby for anything I needed during her well-deserved time off. Finally, in reference to her negotiation skills, she does her homework/analysis before recommending any numbers. In addition, from the bottom of my heart I sincerely recommend Real Estate Services from Sue Larsen and her team at NextHome South Sound for DuPont, WA and the surrounding area. V/r Luis Cruz

Sue Larsen is an amazing advocate and professional that provides her utmost to facilitate the purchase and sell of your property. My family and I were impressed with Sue’s diligence in helping to prepare our property for sell. In addition, her keen eye successfully estimated the future sell price for property that facilitated multiple offers on our home. What’s more, she facilitated these offers with minimal hardship placed on my family that has four small children. The sell and escrow was smooth and Sue was always prompt with a recommendation or service when required. I cannot recommend enough- just an outstanding job done by a talented real estate professional.

I don't typically write reviews; however, I am compelled to write this one for Carolyn. She is the ultimate agent--knows the market, is tireless in her efforts, and wonderful to work with. We were so fortunate to find her to help us purchase our home. No doubt she is heads above other realtors.

Brittany is a great person and solid professional. Thank you!

I can't speak highly enough of Sue. She does a great job assisting those in the military who may no longer be living in the area sell their property. Even though I was no longer in the area Sue did a great job of communicating on a regular basis during the entire selling process. She was always available to answer questions and concerns. Her knowledge of the local market is incredibly impressive and she was able to help settle on a price that was competitive yet helped our home sell quickly. We had two offers on our home after only being on the market for ten days. She set up an aggressive social media marketing campaign, holding an open house the first weekend as well as staging our home to highlight its potential. Sue really did go above and beyond what I expected from a real estate agent. There may be other agents that will do the bare minimum to sell your home, but Sue does absolutely anything possible, and she makes you feel as if you're her only customer. If you are looking for an agent that truly cares go with Sue and her team.

Sue was helpful from the start and she made the transition simple and worry free. No other property manager compares to the excellence of Sue Larsen. We highly recommend Sue Larsen!

Sue Larsen is absolutely amazing. My neighbors recommended her and I would not of got through this sales without her expertise, genuine kindness, knowledge, negotiating skills and caring work ethic and desire to make this an amazing buy to where I could get everything I wanted to satisfaction. She was always available via phone or text anytime I had a question about paperwork or the next steps etc. she met with me personally to go over pieces of the buying process. I had her review everything before I would review and sign anything because I knew she knew what to look for and was the subject matter expert. I will recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. I wish all realtors were like her. I would definitely ask for Sue again.

Sue was great from the beginning. We had never met her, and were seeking a new home across the country. She went out of her way to help us find the perfect home in Dupont, and to find creative financial solutions in order to close on our dream home. Thank You Sue.We look forward to meeting you very soon. I highly recommend her to anyone searching for their perfect home.

We have used Sue as a lease up agent for our rental for years now and just used her to close on the sale of that rental. Sue has been amazing throughout, offering wonderful expert advice that has helped us to make so much money and take care of our house properly. She really knows Dupont and can help you stage, price, and show your home to get it sold quickly and at a good price. Would definitely recommend Sue to anyone looking to rent or sell a home! 5 star agent!

We entered a tough market searching for our family's first home. Upon a friend's recommendation, we contacted Kristen while searching for a realtor and I can not express how happy I am that we did. Kristen was so helpful and patient as we looked at different homes and she listened to what was important to each of us. While our likes and dislikes fluctuated as we learned what we wanted, she was supportive and understanding the whole time. She was very available for viewings and talking through paperwork and communicative if there were any scheduling conflicts. She was very easy to talk to and just an all around joy to work with. While the home buying process was quite the adventure, it was made so much more pleasant having a realtor like Kristen on our team! We can not express enough how thankful we are that we had the opportunity to work with her!

A friend of mine recommended Brittany when I started looking into buying my first home. I reached out and she set up an appointment really promptly. She explained the home buying process very throughly and what I could expect in the current market in the area. She was very patient with my many questions and when there were certain concepts (like additional deposits) that I didn’t understand. She was incredibly responsive throughout the whole process and linked me up with great folks to help such as my mortgage lender, home inspector, and people to help with renovations. Her friendliness, responsiveness, honesty, and knowledge helped me buy my first home with confidence. I would recommend Brittany to anyone looking to buy a home, especially first time homebuyers!

We have had a rental property in DuPont for 8 years and Sue has helped us find renters for that property four times. Each time she has completed thorough background checks and helped us find tenants with whom we felt confident. She is able to find renters quickly, once we had only two days between when the old tenants moved and the new tenants moved in. Whenever we have had questions about anything rental property related she is always ready to help. We had a small problem once and we called her prior to calling our insurance company - we trust her that much!

Kristin was awesome! Not only did she help us buy our first home, but also sell it a few years later. We had to go back to her to sell because buying with her was such a great, professional experience. Kristin explains every step of the buying/selling process which made it easy for my wife and I since we were first time buyers (and sellers). She also kept us informed every step of the way and ultimately helped us get everything we wanted out of buying and selling. We will definitely be return customers!

Brittany did an awesome job in finding us a home in this hard housing market. She is very efficient and walked us through every step in the process. I don’t think I’ve had such an easy experience buying a home. She did such a great job that we want her help to also sell our home.

If we could give 10 stars we would. Kristin did an amazing job. She truly went the extra mile while representing our family and our families needs. No task seemed to great, whether it be researching county records or hunting down contractors to ensure closing punch lists were completed. She was always available to answer questions and even helped us resolve an issue after we closed on our home. She is conscientious and has an incredible work ethic. My wife and I highly recommend Kristin for your real estate needs!

Outstanding service by a top notch professional! When I moved away, Sue managed my rental property for several years until I decided to sell. She handled the sale of my property while I resided in out of state. She kept me abreast every step of the way and was always responsive when I had questions. She made the sale of my property very easy on wife and I. I am glad I had Sue on my side. She is must to have on your team when buying and selling a home.

Carolyn provided an excellent experience for us as first time home sellers. She calmly guided us through the selling experience with more care than I ever would have expected from a real estate agent -- she treated us as a friend. Even in the best of times, I've heard that selling a home can be one of the most stressful life experiences, full of pitfalls, uncertainty, questions, and doubt. She was able to explain the details through every step and worked hand-in-hand with the buyers agent to ensure the process moved along smoothly. Moreover, she helped us price and market the home to achieve maximum possible return. Without reservation, I recommend Carolyn as a real estate agent who places her clients goals and priorities first. My only regret is that she will not be relocating to the east coast to help us with our next purchase.

Kristin Schafer was a wonderful real estate agent for us from the point we began house hunting to the day we rented out our old place. We began looking for a new place at the beginning of the summer. She was patient with us and we never felt like we needed to “hurry up” or “settle” for something that wasn’t perfect for us. She was just a text away anytime we wanted to view a home and was ready at a moments notice. Once we found a place we loved she took us through the entire process. After the house closed she advised us on how to prepare our old house for rental. She advertised it for us and secured a renter for it under a month. I can’t say enough about how nice she made a difficult process. Thank you!

Sue helped us get top dollar for our home and sell it extremely quickly; she did this while still dealing with the unusual restrictions required by COVID-19.

She is extremely responsive and easy to communicate with.

My husband and I loved working with Carolyn, as first time homebuyers and with the current market, I thought buying a house would be the most stressful thing I’ve ever done. I’m happy to say that there was absolutely no stress with Carolyn’s help. She was patient with us and worked hard to meet our wants/needs in a house. I always felt like she had our best interest in mind and wanted us to find our forever home. I would, without any, hesitation recommend her and will definitely use her in the future with any other home purchases or sales. THANK YOU CAROLYN!!!!

Sue knows the market better than anyone. She listed our property and sold it for full asking price in a matter of days. Sue knew the right price, the best ways to present the house and where to advertise. She is a true professional and her knowledge and skill will serve you well. If you need to buy a home, Sue is the best. If you need to sell your home, she is the best. If you are looking for a property manager, she is the best.

Sue did an outstanding job helping us prepare our house for sale, guiding us through the process, and managing our expectations for pricing. She was able to tell us exactly which repairs and touchups would be worth the money spent and would be recouped in the sale price, and she referred me to great people for the repairs I couldn't do on my own. Her office did the staging for photos, and it was so beautiful, I almost wanted to keep the house! She was friendly and communicative throughout the process and made it as pain-free as I could have hoped. I would recommend Sue without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell in the South Sound area!

My experience with Sue has been nothing short of outstanding. As a military service member, Sue managed my property for over 10 years with expertise and absolute professionalism. Most recently, Sue sold my property and my experience was extremely positive. Sue not only has in depth knowledge of the local housing market, she is extremely responsive to questions and concerns. Not to mention, Sue can quickly problem solve when challenges present themselves during the buying / selling process. I absolutely recommend Sue to represent anyone interested in buyer, selling, or renting a home. There is no better Real Estate Professional who demonstrates total professionalism and commitment to accomplishing your real estate goals.

Before I begin this review, I just want to first mention that Dan Benz is the best realtor you could ask for. As first time home buyers, the anticipation of buying a house is very exciting yet nerve racking. My fiancé and I are had a lot to learn about buying a house. However, Dan made this process so easy and we felt comfortable the entire time. Dan offered us a tremendous amount of help in educating us on the buying process. He was very efficient and professional throughout the entire process. Dan is very personable and great at communication which makes his negotiation skills very effective. Dan was always available to answer questions quickly even if we had them at 9:00pm. We felt very comfortable with Dan because he was always open and honest. We can’t thank Dan enough for all of the time and help he gave us through this journey. I would recommend Dan again in a heartbeat to any friends and family. Thank you so much Dan for everything you did to help us buy our first home.

Sue Larsen has truly been an amazing relator, landlord, and friend over the last 11 years. She was our landlord years ago and we liked the house and her so much that we built the same model. We ended up moving and we always used her as our property manager. She always treated the home as though it was hers, helped us make choices and contacts, and really treated us like family. She is a great person and a great realtor. I cannot say enough good about her. She is simply the best you can ask for.

Carolyn is absolutely amazing. Her best characteristics are communication and follow thru which are critical traits for a property manager, especially for those stationed overseas. It has been much appreciated how responsive Carolyn has been with our needs as we deal with a 9 hour time zone difference to include the needs of the tenant which is equally important. Another key factor to consider for anyone in the Bell Hill is her knowledge of the neighborhood and the homes. I would recommend her anytime.

WOW--5 Star PLUS service! Sue Larsen is THE BEST residential real estate professional we have had the pleasure of working with over the last 40 years of buying and selling numerous homes. She is the consummate real estate expert--whether you are looking to buy, sell, or rent your home--or looking for a rental property. She KNOWS the local market! In helping us sell our latest house, Sue put together a great sales plan that included tastefully staging our home along with professional photos and on-line video walk throughs. She is an expert proactive communicator who kept us informed at every step of the process from across the country. As our "seller's agent" she personally invested herself in negotiating the very best deal for us: With great skill she generated and coordinated over 30 physical viewings over 3 days that resulted in over numerous offers--all over our asking price. The winning offer was $35K over our asking price! WOW WOW WOW--All because of Sue! If you're in the market to rent your home, Sue provides full service overwatch and is very thorough with screening and pre and post rental inspections--all while coordinating any needed top quality repairs/maintenance. As the business owner of NextHome, she continually invests in her staff with active mentoring that insures they all provide the top notch service Sue expects and delivers. Thanks so much Sue--you were such a blessing to us!

Dan was a great agent to work with through our home selling process. He was very professional and knowledgeable. He provided us with all the right information from the very start and we very rarely had to ask a question because he had already provided us with the information. Dan was awesome with his marketing and getting us to the right selling price for our house. Dan was on top of everything from the time our listing went live to when we closed. He went above and beyond for us as we had some very unique situations arise during our selling process even after we were under contract. Even though our process was a little crazy at times, and no fault of Dan’s, he made it a positive experience and held our hand through the process. I would most definitely recommend Dan for selling or buying your home!

From the first meeting we knew that Brittany would take great care in selling our home. Even while we were sick with covid she was checking in on us to see if we needed anything. Once we were better everything happened very quickly and efficiently. The contractor walk thru, the work getting done, showings, showings abs a lot more showings. Then it was finally time to select the offer in which she was very helpful in explaining how all the different offers worked. I can't imagine selling with anyone else or anyone taking more care in preparing our home and us for the selling process. She's the most amazing realtor that we've ever worked with. Thank you for everything.

I was introduced to Dan through my mortgage broker of several years. He presented himself with an open and low pressure professionalism that I found reassuring. His knowledge of the marketplace and his marketing skills were impressive and spot on for me. Dan is aggressive from the beginning with strategies and frequent communication regarding processes and progress. This resulted in my better understanding of all aspects of selling a home. The resulting sale of my home far exceeded my expectations. I attribute this success to Dan's extensive knowledge of the market and his straight forward honesty I would highly recommend Dan to anyone for his service. He was a pleasure to work with and I would be proud to have him as a friend.

Sue was fantastic!! We really enjoyed working with her to rent out our condo, and then she did an amazing job selling it when given only a 2 month heads up (if that)! She was available to connect even on different time zones (as we've been on east coast), answered questions thoroughly, explained everything in depth, and was very enjoyable to work with. I'd pick her again and again, and I've recommended her to other friends in the area!

I have bought and sold with Sue Larsen. She is extremely well versed in the market, showing many years of experience in every step of the realty transaction process.
Her advice is perfect. Meaning she will give you exactly what you need to help you make tough decisions throughout the selling or buying process, potentially saving you 1000s of dollars.
Sue’s communication is exactly what you need, when you need it. There are points in the process where I needed answers and she was always available. When the process hit a point of waiting, she checked in periodically to reassure and support. She provided on the minute updates. As soon as new information was available, Sue was immediately communicating what to expect.
I highly recommend Sue Larsen for any and all reality needs. She is a solid performer who knows her business! A+++

Kristin is a phenomenal real estate professional whom I highly recommend. We recently renovated and rented a property -- a task she oversaw -- and without her help, we could not have done the job. We live overseas, so to coordinate such a undertaking in the States would have been next to impossible. Kristin had helped us in the past with finding tenants, and we knew her to be reliable, responsive, and trustworthy. As such, we entrusted Kristin with not only coordinating with the outgoing tenant and finding a new tenant, but we also asked her to do many tasks that went above and beyond the normal scope of agent duties. Among other tasks, she coordinated for repairs, carpet replacement and appliance installation. Through it all, Kristin was always responsive to our inquiries and requests. Additionally, she provided sound advice, from what price to rent our property, to what color of paint should be used in the living room. My wife and I cannot recommend Kristin highly enough. She is a tremendous agent whom we will use in the future

If I could give more stars to Sue, I absolutely would. I have known her since 2011 when she helped me purchase the same home that she just helped me sell in 2018. Sue is the epitome of an outstanding real estate professional — she is an expert in the local market, a master in coordinating activities to get a house ready for sale, is attentive to detail, and is friendly and easy to work with. If you are in need of a real estate agent, look no further than Sue Larsen. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Sue during the entire process of selling my property! I've bought and sold numerous properties and she was by far the BEST agent I've ever worked with. I was out of state for the sale of my home but that was really not an issue since she still ensured all the right activities/transactions took place in a timely manner. With her advice and professional services, I was able to sell my property on the first day of it being listed for several thousands over asking! Everything went smoothly thanks for her ongoing dedication and hard work to getting things done correctly the first time. I highly recommend her if you want an amazing agent that will take care of you for either selling or buying a home!

She was an advocate for us throughout the entire process, and we truly feel she is the best realtor in Tacoma.

Mr. Dan Benz is the best realtor I have come in contact with. He assisted my family in finding a home to purchase, writing an offer that was accepted, listing my home that was contingent, and getting my home sold in a timely manner. Dan is professional, proficient, informative, and caring. I truly believe he is in this profession to help his client in any way possible to get the results they are looking for. He is not only knowledgeable but honest about what to expect with the current market. He stuck with us as we looked for the home that was just right for us and saw us through the process of obtaining it. He fought for us until the end, even after the sale was over when the previous owner was not completing tasks as promised. He kept everyone moving forward and held other agents accountable as they lagged in getting things done. I would recommend Mr.Benz to anyone and everyone who has any real estate needs in the PNW. You will be pleasantly surprised how much Dan will work for you when you use him as your real estate agent to list a home and/or find a new one.

Carolyn did an outstanding job helping me sell my home! From the beginning of the process she was extremely helpful in pointing out things I needed to update or change with the house to help increase its value. She was also very knowledgeable about the local market conditions and trends. She was very proactive in helping to stage the home and get professional pictures taken that I know had a very positive impact on the ultimate sale. Being that I was conducting the sale from out of state, Carolyn did a great job of communicating with me and keeping me updated about showings, offers, and the inspection items to be corrected. Thanks so much to Carolyn for making the process as smooth as possible! I will definitely refer my friends and family to her and look forward to working with her again in the future!

We give our strongest recommend to Sue Larsen as a real estate agent! We are first-time home sellers and recently sold our home in Dupont, WA. We could not be more pleased with the entire experience and outcome. Sue was incredibly professional, competent, and positive…a real go-getter and a delight to work with. We live in another state (and time zone), and she kept us informed of the process and progress of repairs and cosmetic updates to our home the entire time. She was incredibly responsive to our concerns and questions via emails, text, and phone calls regardless of the time of day (or night). Her recommendations were spot-on and helped us get the best possible offer for our home. We are so happy with the results and would unhesitatingly choose to work with her again!

Kristin assisted my wife and I in moving from Colorado to Lacey. She did an excellent job of narrowing down optional homes. We decided on the first one offering what she said was the fair market price. The owner demanded more, and we followed Kristin's recommendation to withdraw--the home eventually sold for the price Kristin had recommended about 6-7 months later.

We have worked with Sue Larsen every single time we needed a renter so naturally I contacted her when it came time to sell our DuPont home. She is fantastic at what she does and always responds in a timely manner. Our family moved away from DuPont in 2009 so every contract was done via email, to include the sale of the home, and there was NEVER an issue. I highly recommend this company, especially Sue Larson!

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Brittany Ulrich as a real estate agent. I recently had the pleasure working with Ms. Brittany when I was looking to sell my home, and I can say without hesitation that she was an absolute pleasure to work with. From the first time we met, We were impressed by Ms. Brittany's professionalism, knowledge, anddedication. Ms. Brittany took time to listen to our needs and provided invaluable guidance through the entire process.

She was always available to answer our questions we had, and her communication was exceptional. If you are looking for areal estate agent who is knowledgeable, professional, and dedicated, look no further than Ms. Brittany. She is truly the best in the business.

Kristin was very professional, knowledgeable, and prompt. She always got back to me within hours and despite her busy schedule and was able to take us on showings on short notice. It was our first time buying a home, and she helped us feel comfortable each step of the way. Kristin had worked with my mortgage lender in the past, so whenever paperwork was needed, there was an open line of communication between all of us. She never pressured us into a home, instead played devil's advocate to make sure we'd find the perfect fit. I've heard nightmare stories from friends about buying their first home, but we had the smoothest experience with Kristin so I cannot relate! Highly recommended.

Working with Carolyn was such a great experience. She led me through the house buying process and helped me find the most perfect house for me and my family. She was so incredibly kind, understanding, and helpful at all times. My husband was deployed and I had to take our 6 month old with us wherever we went, and Carolyn offered to help me numerous times with my daughter while I was looking around or if my baby was fussy. While we walked around the house, Carolyn gave many tips and suggestions on how something could be improved. I felt confident buying our house with her because of the dedication and knowledge she showed the entire time. Husband is now home and we are both so in love with our new house. Thank you so so much for all you did Carolyn!!!

Brittany is very professional, responsive, and helpful. She worked with us to buy a house from out-of-state and handled most of the process and alleviated most of the stress from the transaction. If we were to undergo another real estate transaction in the future, she will be our first choice.

My wife and I were PCSing from Tucson Arizona to the SEATAC Area, and we knew no one in the area. Luckily my wife received a recommendation from a friend of hers about Kristin, and it really was a great recommendation! We had zero problems. Kristin is friendly, responsive, did not pressure us, gave great advice and found us exactly what we were looking for. She is great and we look forward to working with her again!

Did you know that moths are not attracted to light they instead navigate by it. Moths use the light of the moon to help set the horizon during flight ensuring they know up from down and left from right. Unfortunately, all the ambient light in nature is often drowned out by the artificial light we use to illuminate our homes,businesses, places of recreation and worship. When I first started on a journey to find a new home for my growing family I felt like the poor moth. Easily distracted and pulled off course by all the “illumination” the real estate business and other realtors had to offer me. Then I met Kristin Schafer she literally helped me block out the “artificial ” light around me and helped me to focus on the ambient light that matched my families needs and circumstances all the while helping me keep sight of my goal and keeping the horizon in view throughout my flight path to owning our new home. Kristin went the extra mile and gave freely of her time to ensure that I understood the process before me and encouraged me through the bumps along the way. She cares about those she serves and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else but Kristin to help navigate you towards home ownership.
I am forever grateful for her hard work and dedication to me and my family throughout this process.

When I decided to buy a house, a friend strongly recommended Dan Benz as my realtor. Upon first contact with Dan, I immediately “knew” he was the one. He took time to really understand my wants and needs. Not only that, but Dan was able to sense that moment when I walked into the home of my dreams. He stepped up to the plate for me and was able to negotiate my offer in an extremely quick manner. Because of his quick actions and ability to negotiate a win, I am now in the home of my dreams! Dan communicated in a way that I could understand and was very timely in responding back to all my questions. He took the time to ensure I understood the process of purchasing a home and what to expect. He continued communication throughout the entire closing process as well. I could not have asked for a better realtor!!! If you are looking for a realtor that is professional, respectful, honest, timely, well-educated in today’s market, and who has strong negotiation skills…I highly recommend Dan Benz!

Sue has a comfortable manner in her approach as a sellers representative. She followed thru and kept in contact throughout the selling process. We would recommend Sue and her team to anyone in the area to represent them in the buyer/seller process!! Thank you Sue!

Sue Larsen is not only a fantastic relator, but a wonderful person. I have rarely met with a better. Sue was full of knowledge about the area and was excited to show us around. She took our likes and dislikes for a future home seriously. This being our first home purchase, we were intimidated by the process but Ms. Larsen made it simple and easy to understand. We never felt pushed to make a decision on which home to buy or which area to focus on, Sue was willing to do whatever it took to make us happy. From our first phone call with her to even after the home was purchased, she has given her full efforts to our satisfaction. Sending us daily updates of housing listings, taking us to each home we wanted to see (some of them more than once), taking the time to answer every question we asked, these are only a few of the things she did for us. I would highly recommend Sue Larsen

Sue Listened carefully to every concerned and walked e through every step of the way. she was very helpful and careful to find only what i was looking for. I was working with another realtor who kept going above my price line and showed houses ver contrary to what i was looking for. sue did none of that. she found me only what I was looking for and nothing over what i felt comfortable. With sue, your comfort levels are very important to you and she takes time to ensure you have a good and enjoyable experience. I actually found it fun to house shop with her and she ensured I understood all the paperwork. It actually felt easy.

Dan Benz is awesome! He is very professional, and I could trust him to look after my best interests. Without pressure to quickly choose a house, he presented options and honed in on what most to me. He was able to negotiate to help me to obtain a house that I love in my dream neighborhood. I appreciated that he made himself available whenever I had a question, and was there for me from the beginning and even after the closing. I would highly recommend him, and would love to work with him again when the time comes. Thanks Dan for making the entire process as smooth as possible. ~ Marva

I went to Sue Larsen for information to help me decide whether to rent or sell my DuPont condo. I was immediately impressed by her honesty and calm demeanor. When I decided to sell, she guided me every step of the way. On the initial walkthrough, she expertly advised me on what I did and didn’t need to do to prepare my condo to sell. She also shared tips on how to best present it to potential buyers. She was always available, often calling me with updates in the evening, long past the end of the average work day. She was positive and encouraging and patient with my million-and-one questions for her. Thanks to her hard work on my behalf, there was a bidding war and I wound up selling for well over the asking price. Sue was as excited as I was about the great results. I highly recommend Sue Larsen to anyone who is considering buying or selling in DuPont and the surrounding area. Her integrity and professionalism are second to none.

We have worked with Sue Larson since 2008. She helped us rent out our house with only a weekend between renters. Recently Sue worked long hours to sell our house within a week of getting it on the market, all while we live in another state. If I had a question she always had the answer to me within the hour. I will always recommend Sue Larson to any friends heading to the Dupont area

Brittany is awesome! We met her initially at an open house where she was the listing agent and immediately felt comfortable with her and knew we wanted to have her help us buy our house. She was flexible in finding times to meet with us and help us figure out where to begin in the home buying process. She was very responsive and honest. We wanted a home in a very competitive market and she was great at helping us figure out what to offer to make it happen. Brittany was never pushy and helped to find a great home for us!

Carolyn was amazing! She worked with my husband and I to facilitate a home purchase while we are out of state in preparation for a military PCS. She was extremely diligent in helping us find the right home, from facetime viewings to writing the right offer. She wouldn't let us settle for a home we didn't love. And she has continued to be present and supportive through closing. Definitely made a challenging home buying situation very smooth. Highly recommend!

Brittany is absolutely amazing. She is super easy to work with, and she helped my wife and I find our first home. We met with her and discussed what we were looking for and what we wanted. Before we knew it, we found the one. Every step of the way Brittany was answering our questions. Will absolutely recommend her to all of my friends in the future.

This was our first home sale and if it wasn’t for Sue I can’t even imagine how it would have turned out. She did an excellent job walking us through the whole process and making our first home sale a large success! She was very quick to respond and has a world of knowledge about the real estate industry which she loves to share with you! If I have any friends or family looking for a home in the Pierce County area, I’ll definitely give them Sue’s number!

We could not have asked for anything more in a realtor! Kristin was so knowledgeable and helpful in every way possible. As first time home buyers, the process of purchasing a home can seem a bit overwhelming, but Kristin was there every step of the way and made the process extremely smooth. She is patient, personable, and takes all of your needs into consideration.

Kristin was absolutely amazing. There's no doubt she got us the best possible deal our on our house. She went above and beyond with staging and also helped us find a great handyman to do some minor repairs. She gladly went out of her way to help us take care of the house after we left the state too. Just an all-around great experience with Kristin.

Kristin was an absolute dream, every step of the way, in what ended up being an 18-month process to get my home sold. From the start, she knew we would have an uphill battle, due to things that were beyond our control, and she was determined to get us across the finish line. I am now out of state in Texas, and Kristin stepped in whenever she was needed - from supervising painters and staging to keeping up with landscaping, and checking on why the water was randomly turned off at the property. Kristin is extremely familiar with the area, and the current market, and was confident when pricing my home. She has a great eye and made sure the home was in top condition for showing and photos. Her expertise is apparent, and she was able to walk me through every acronym, document, rule, law, etc. It all paid off - we had multiple offers to review right away, which led to the successful sale of my home, and a new start for me.
I cannot recommend Kristin ENOUGH! And am forever grateful for her partnership in this process.

We had a great time looking for a house with Kristin Schafer! She simply helped make buying a house a great experience with no issues at all. We highly recommend Kristin as a real estate agent.

Sue is amazing! My wife and I searched for a house with Sue for about a year and a half. The first time we met her she sat us down and got to know us and what we were looking for in a house. She explained the process of buying a house and what to look for in all the documents that we would be signing to give us a better understanding of how buying a house works. The housing market was slim and we looked at a lot of houses. Sue would point out areas of the house that would cost a lot of money to fix in the near future. Sue stuck with us and is so incredibly patient and easy going. If we didn’t like a house there was no pressure to put in an offer. We found a house in a location that we loved but did not expect to find a house. If it were not for Sue we would still be looking for a house. We are so grateful to have had her as a realtor.

Dear Others,
I highly recommend Dan Benz to you. In this case, I recommend him as a realtor for buyers, sellers and/or question-askers. If Dan doesn't know the answer he finds it and gets back to you quickly.
Dan wants to make the transaction that is right and best for his clients. To that end, he listens, asks questions and does loads of fact finding on their behalf.
Dan is considerate, respectful, honest and really patient for a guy who likes to get things over the finish line. He works well with the many people involved in a real estate transaction to the great benefit of all parties. Dan is calm and friendly while at the same time unhesitating to speak up and hold the line for his team.
I look forward to working with Dan again in the future and I hope you will, too.

Sue is amazing!!! She is the most professional and knowledgeable real estate agent we have ever worked with and helped us understand every part of the process while selling our home...the preparation Sue and her team put into prepping and staging the home led to us getting an offer over asking price!!!! I will refer everyone to her and plan to work with her again in the future!
