★★★★★
If you're only scanning over reviews, then take away this simple fact: Roy Towse is the agent you want to work with. I say the same with unwavering certainty to my closest friends and family. I hope you'll read on to learn why. As first-time home sellers, my wife and I didn't fully understand just how important it is to have the right agent. After working with Roy, we've experienced firsthand the value of having such an exceptional agent, and in a single transaction, he has earned us as customers for life. Roy is unwaveringly professional, yet personable and funny. He's polished, but never pretentious; confident but never cocky. He works with urgency, but with a relaxed demeanor that helps alleviate stress. He's diligent, yet never pushy. He's endlessly knowledgeable, yet shares that knowledge freely, and in a way that's easy to understand. He's a powerhouse business partner but feels like a friend. From his seemingly endless knowledge to his unique expertise in the highly competitive Seattle-area housing market, and the plethora of tools he offers (like his Concierge program and Collections mobile app and website), Roy has every aspect covered with excellence, which gave us tremendous confidence throughout the and sale of our home. Lest I go on and on, I'll close with this: If you need an agent, do yourself a favor and talk to Roy - you'll be glad you did. - The Albright Family
