About Jennifer
* Accredited Buyer Representative * Realtor * Seller Representative Specialist *
The phonetic (rood) meaning of my name may not be polite but I am! Having a family history of 60+ years in the real estate market led to my great desire to continue the tradition of working in real estate. Being a native “Seattlelite" and raised on Mercer Island, my knowledge of the Puget Sound area made it even more inevitable that I become a professional in the real estate arena. While obtaining my Bachelor‘s degree and a business minor at Seattle Pacific University, I managed my family’s real estate investments. I obtained my license in 1994 and have been an active full time selling agent ever since. My area of expertise includes the Eastside & Mercer Island as well as Seattle, helping many individuals and families with their real estate needs.

After interviewing multiple realtors, searching for the perfect agent, I was extremely happy to have found Jennifer. She did an outstanding job. From the very first phone consultation to completion of closing the sale, Jennifer was extremely professional, knowledgeable, helpful, and most importantly kind. She took the utmost care for my mother's best interest. She went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule and many of our requests. Jennifer's years of experience in the real estate business, integrity, and honesty deserve a superior recommendation. She exhibits a genuine interest in satisfying her clients.

“"Jennifer has a real passion for meeting her client’s unique needs. We feel so fortunate to have had Jennifer as our Realtor. Having moved from out-of-state, we were ready to find our perfect home, but Covid-19 made this a true challenge. Jennifer made the experience of finding a home with the space we needed much less stressful. Knowing we were in good hands with her allowed us to focus on our rubric and family needs to find a home that was perfect not just during the pandemic, but beyond. Jennifer is a committed, professional, and knowledgeable advocate in what can be one of life’s most stressful business transactions." E. Sundgrenz | Buyer in Bellevue, WA

She is the utmost professional and is very keen on her client's needs. She has an arsenal of resources that can assist you in prepping your home for sale. We had an aggressive date and seemed impossible to meet. Jennifer drove our timeline and kept us on track and we were able to pull off what seemed impossible! I would highly recommend her!! Jennifer is also very honest and kind and offered us a large amount of support throughout the process. For anyone that needs to sell their home, Jennifer has my stamp of approval and will get the job done!!!” K. McAvinew | Seller in Renton, WA

“"Jennifer was wonderful! As first-time home buyers, we required a lot of hand-holding being totally new to the process. She was always eager to help educate and make us feel more at ease! During the negotiation process, I appreciated her letting us know all the different strategies we could use and the risks and benefits of each. She was honest, kind, and knowledgeable!” K.

“"Jennifer was great to work with and was super communicative. I was a first-time seller and went through the entire process while working remotely in southeast Alaska. Jennifer was so helpful and super patient with all of the questions I had and the challenges we faced with me being remote. She took care of setting up everything from painters to staging to cleaning. Couldn’t have gone through this process with a better agent! Thanks, Jennifer!” J. Pienody | Seller in Seattle, WA
