Overall great experience with Sam through the buying process. She was readily available to answer questions and provide professional insights throughout the process. She aided in making a goal of home ownership again a reality. Looking forward to my personal new beginning, Thank you again Sam!!

Sam was an absolute dream to work with. Dedicated, personable, professional and always ready to help us in any way she could, we could not have asked for a better realtor. She went above and beyond, helping us through 5 long months or searching for our Seattle dream home while we worked to sell our Phoenix house. I could not recommend her more and am so thankful we found her.

It was wonderful working with Sam. As first time home buyers, we were so grateful for her knowledge and insight at each step of the way. It took us a long time to find the right place, and Sam was always ready to talk or show us a listing. We never felt pressure from her to move at a quicker pace, and she was very respectful of our budget constrictions in the tight Seattle market! We would definitely work with her again in the future. Thank you, Sam!

Samantha is an outstanding person and realtor. She assisted me selling my home in large home in Mukilteo and finding a new (smaller) home. In this very challenging real estate market, we hit several snags during this process, all of it out of Samantha's control, however she immediately rose to the occasion to fix all obstacles and keeping me calm and reassure me that things would work out- and they did! Perfectly! I am very happy in my new home. ???? I loved working with Sam and definitely recommend her to anyone having a real estate need. -Cheryl Campbell

Where to begin? Sam just fires on all cylinders all the time! We began our search for a home in October of 2017 after attending HomeStreet's first-time homebuyer's course. After getting connected with Sam through the bank (who recommended her highly), our work started immediately. This is where our first point of praise for Sam goes: she was extremely flexible and generous with her time, meeting with us at odd hours and at times in challenging circumstances. We're a one-car family of two full-time employees so she even offered to give us rides so that we could all meet at the same time. And from day one we could see she was a thorough, well-informed agent for us to partner with; she gave us all the context we needed to understand the road ahead. The fact that she herself is an attorney is also a point of praise, as her knowledge and expertise in the field helped us to know we were in good hands. Over the course of four months, Sam maintained consistent communication with us each week about potential houses, and worked around our schedules to assist us in person whenever we requested. When it came time to put together our best offers, Sam was impressively creative and aware of the demands of the market; we always felt like we brought our absolute best to the table when we had found homes that interested us. When we made countless inquiries, read and often questioned many aspects of the process, and even in some situations backed out of offers at the 11th hour, she never demonstrated an ounce of judgment, and in fact always supported us in our final decisions. We felt like she was on our team every step of the way. When it came time to put in an offer on a house that would end up being our first home, Sam helped us put together our winning bid with her creativity and keen awareness of the market. She connected us with inspectors who made us feel confident. She took the time to appear in person for the appraisal. Put simply, she showed up everywhere we could possibly have needed her to. And now we are just about a month past closing, and couldn't be more happy in our new home. Sam has a good reputation in this field for a reason. She is collaborative, transparent, and informed. All the gratitude in the world goes to this kind, considerate, skilled, ambitious, thorough, hard-working, responsive woman. Sam is an excellent agent to partner with. We're so lucky to have met her!

Sam was wonderful! We were first time home buyers and had a ton of questions. Not only was Sam quick to respond to us (morning, noon and night) but she explained to us all the intricate processes that can come with buying a home. We never felt pressured and always felt we were well informed during every step of the process. We ended up finding our "forever" home and could not thank Sam enough for her tireless work. We would 100% recommend her!

Sam was very professional and knowledgable. My family and I really appreciate that she listened to our opinions and put our interests first. In several occasions when we had to move on fast, she prepared documents perfectly in a very short time frame and made sure we met the deadlines. Her knowledge and experiences in real estate and law had helped us tremendously in such a competitive market. We were first-time home buyers with very little knowledge in every aspect of home buying. Sam answered every question we had, big and small, with patience and details. The transaction was very smooth and we were able to close right on schedule. We were very thankful to have worked with Sam.

I cannot say enough how much we love Sam!! She helped us get our first home, not only that it is our dream home! In this Seattle market I know how tough it is to get what you want, but somehow Sam made it happen. She will go out of the way for you and really is a wonderful person. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone. We were warned over and over that no one would probably take our offer because we were using a VA loan, but Sam just said we should still try and we were able to get a great rate with the VA loan and not have to put as much money down. I don't think we would be as happy if we went with anyone else.

Samantha was amazing to work with during my real estate transaction. My timing was interesting because of a sizzling market with multiple offers, frenzied buyers, and she made sure I was informed AND prepared at every turn. Her background, engagement and approach is exactly what I needed and I had full confidence in her abilities to have my interests at heart. Thank you Samantha!

Samantha was excellent at all aspects of the loan. Her communication skills with me and other parties prove to be exceptional she followed up with any issues that were presented from buyer Escrow Company or Bank. There were also renters in my house and she also communicated and help them find another house.

Sam is awesome! I'm a first-time buyer and she really help me through the process. She stuck with us during a very competitive market and she's willing to see any house at any time for us. She even dropped her prior engagement to go see the house that we had to move fast on, and which we happily ended up with. I'll be using her again on any future purchase or sells.

I simply can't say enough about how easy and seamless my home buying experience felt, as a result of Samantha's diligence and expertise! From beginning to end, I knew I was in good hands. Samantha's broad knowledge of the many aspects of real estate was extremely reassuring to me, as I looked at homes, considered my options, and negotiated final terms of my purchase. Her explanation of the documents and requirements during each stage of the process was phenomenal. She provided many helpful pros and cons for each important decision I had to make as a buyer. Furthermore, I was amazed at how responsive Samantha was to all of my questions and requests. Even some of my small concerns, that I feared might seem trivial, she took quite seriously. Samantha was so wonderful to work with and I am so happy with the home I purchased. I recommend her at any opportunity I get! Thank you so much, Samantha!

Samantha is an amazing real estate professional. I recently moved to the area and had a list of the lifestyle I would like my home to provide - walking or easy biking distance to work, public transportation, high walking score to reach restaurants, grocery stores, schools, etc. - and in a price range I could afford. Of course I also had my list regarding square footage, style of house, garage, yard, etc. Sam was knowledgeable of the area and created a great area map for my search. She was in frequent contact with me and was always willing to work with my schedule to show me one or five homes during an appointment. In fact, I was so confident in Sam's understanding of what I was looking for that I trusted her to review several homes for me when my time was tight with work. Most important to me is Sam's integrity and warmth. We spent a great deal of time together and she was personable, supportive, had a sharp eye for the properties, and made sure I was considering all factors in my decision making. She provided me invaluable feedback regarding the market. I'm convinced that her negotiation skills are what allowed my bid to be the bid the owner accepted. Sam is determined to assist her clients in meeting their goals and their dreams. I would highly recommend Sam. I provide her name and contact information to all of my friends and co-workers. I wouldn't consider working with anyone else.

Samantha Arango took the time to create the full package promotion that we desired. She listened closely to our ideas, respected our judgment, brought in an interior design advisor, and hired an esteemed and unparalleled photographer. Selling our first home was a bit of a tense experience, as we knew our house was great, but we weren't sure how others would perceive it. She helped us make the right decisions from A to Z. I recommend Sam to my friends. Our house sold in under a week for our asking price.

Samantha Arango was our trusted Windermere Real Estate agent from start to finish. She provided us exceptional service through the home-buying process and in handling the purchase of our first home in Seattle, WA. We felt very comfortable with Sam, her knowledge of the real estate market and North Seattle and Shoreline communities. In the four months we worked together, Sam was highly professional, personable and responsive to our questions. We communicated regularly and she always had helpful suggestions, met our requests, and offered solutions to any issues that arose. As first time homebuyers, she took the time to guide us through the process and make sure we were comfortable with every decision. It was a real collaboration. We appreciated her attentiveness to our specific criteria and the characteristics we were looking for in a home.Overall, it was an educational and positive experience for us. It was a pleasure working with Sam and we would highly recommend her.

My wife and I used Sam's services to sell our house and overall our experience was fantastic. We were pleased with her response times to phone calls/texts/emails. Communication between her and the other agent was extremely easy making the process for both parties painless. Overall it took us a week to sell our house and we feel very confident that her marketing techniques and customer service at the open house was a direct result of our house selling so quickly. My wife and I strongly recommend her services.

I'm in the process of looking for my first home and I am lucky to be working with Ms. Arango. Although I have yet to purchase, she has been very patient and thorough in her search for a house that meets my particular specifications. She is knowledgable about the area I am interested in and has opened my options to other areas that may be a better fit for me. I appreciate her willingness and continued help.

Samantha helped me look for a home in the North Seattle and Shoreline areas. She was very knowledgeable of the area and the types of homes and their values, as well as the process for purchasing. Unfortunately for reasons that were not hers I was unable to purchase, but I would highly recommend Samantha for any potential buyers or sellers on the North Seattle, Shoreline, and related areas.
