Robert and Lari are THE BEST! First-time home buyer and, for the most part, clueless, my husband and i needed a lot of hand-holding through the entire process. Working with Robert and Lari made the process feel effortless. From that first viewing to the final closing, they were very patient, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable. They guided us with honest, thoughtful advice at every step. Thanks to their expertise and care, we got our perfect home! 😍

We are so happy with our real estate transaction selling our Seattle home when we relocated across the country. We met Robert at an open house some time ago when we were looking to buy a home. Although we did not buy that home, when it came time to sell, his name came to mind so we reached out, and are so happy we did. Robert and Lori’s biggest strengths are exactly what you’d want in a sale of your beloved home: attention to detail, thorough planning, incredible teamwork, transparent and effective communication, and dedication. We appreciated how much effort went into making our home look perfect for listing, even including Robert and Lori themselves doing gardening and overseeing contractors. We had a short timeframe to list the home, and Robert and Lori helped us navigate this stressful time and seamlessly develop and execute a plan. The listing strategy was thoughtful and we were thrilled to receive a competitive offer we were very happy to accept. Robert was communicative through closing and helped us maintain the home as we were out of state. We’d highly recommend using Robert as your agent! He is very friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and truly goes above and beyond.

We first met Robert while perusing open houses and immediately knew we wanted to work with him. His deep knowledge of the Seattle market, combined with the detailed, data-driven graphs and charts he shared, made a lasting impression. He helped us purchase our home with confidence—thoroughly walking us through comps, inspection reports, and the offer process. Years later, when it came time to sell, there was no question—we called Robert again. He made the selling process just as seamless as the purchase, guiding us every step of the way with the same level of care, expertise, and attention to detail. We can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you again, Robert!

Robert did a great service in helping us with selling my deceased brother’s house in Renton. I live in Spokane and he was in contact with me throughout the process. He facilitated the sale efficiently and always provided advice that was well-thought out and communicated very clearly. I would highly recommend Robert to anyone who needs to sell a house.

Robert was great to work with and supported us the whole home buying process. He took the time to get to know our preferences and was quick to notify us of new houses in our area. We can’t thank him enough for helping us get our first home!!

We would not have the home we have today without Robert! Let me explain. I met Robert when I wandered into an open house in Ballard about 7 years ago that he was hosting. He was authentic, knowledgeable, and didn't dismiss me when I said I was just looking and not in a place to buy. He did take my contact information and did the most amazing job of staying in touch over the next 6 years and because of this, when we were looking to sell a rental property in 2024 he was the only person we considered to represent us and I am so glad we did! The rental property was a condo in Northgate and Robert came with research and advice on how to best prepare the property and when to list the property to try and get us the best price - and it worked! Four competing offers later, the unit went for over asking and we were thrilled with the whole experience. Fast forward to August of 2024 when we decided to buy and move out of the rental we had been living in. Again, Robert was our first call. He did an amazing job coaching us through the buying process making it so easy and as stress free as possible. This also included some less experienced situations like a low appraisal which Robert guided us through with so much knowledge that it made it easy. I am happy to say we just closed on a house in West Seattle and it really truly is due to Robert! Robert will always be the first call we make with any real estate questions and would highly recommend him to anyone I know.

Robert was great throughout our first time home buying experience. He helped us understand Seattle neighborhoods, flesh out key priorities in the search, and in understanding different dynamics of the bidding and closing process.

It's very pleasant experience working with Robert Johnson and his wife Lari. They helped us buy and sell our house on 44th Ave NE in Seattle. They were very professional as well as personal. An example of the former was a very detailed project plan and timeline for making the house and garden more presentable for selling. As for the latter- they answered all our questions, helped us with our yards cleaning, and gave us a flower bouquet when the sale was final! They significantly improved the allure of the garden and creating excellent staging of the interior. The result was overwhelming. Over 100 visitors came to see the house with over 10 offers. We trust them and value their services.

We chose to stick with Robert as our agent after meeting him early on in our search. He is honest, empathetic and knowledgeable. He respected the time that we needed to explore different neighborhoods and types of homes and I never felt pressured to see a home or make an offer quickly, despite a competitive market. He seems to have a good rapport with listing agents and was always able to get us intel on why an offer may not have been accepted or what the competing offers were. I highly recommend Robert for anyone looking for a home in Seattle. His process is adaptable to however you want to approach your search and he takes the time to understand your needs before assuming/imposing anything. Thanks, Robert!

Robert has been beyond helpful, bordering on saintly when it comes to patience, and a true pleasure to work with in what we at one point feared was a quest for the silver horned unicorn or the Great White Whale. Buying a house in Seattle this year would have been far more challenging we’re it not fir Robert. He showed us around many houses, talked us through “how it really works” to buy and sell here, and was responsive with being pushy or intrusive. He shared our quest as much as he shared his knowledge of the ever-changing real estate market in this area. While it took many tries for us to find our lovely townhouse—which was not what we entered the market seeking—Robert walked with us with humor and humanity. Thank you, Robert—especially for your diligence and willingness to listen to my jokes.

The bottom line is that Robert is very good at this. One standout feature of working with Robert is that he had a great command of using technology to aid busy folks like my wife and I who have small kids and full time jobs. For example, while we were at work, he would investigate houses that matched our criteria and send videos he took himself of the house via Google drive, etc. This really helped us streamline our search and not spend time driving and walking into houses we wouldn't be interested in. He is also just a positive person with great energy and knowledge of his field. Thanks Robert!

Rob is truly a great agent and I highly recommend him. From my experience, he went above and beyond ensuring that I understand the process, the documents I'm signing and as a result, I was confident and comfortable with the offer I was putting down. With his help, I was able to win my dream home with 4 other offers on the table.

Robert was fantastic! As a first-time home buyer venturing out on my own, the process seemed like it would be very daunting, but Robert was so helpful and made me feel comfortable with every step. Robert took care to make sure that he was showing me properties that really suited my life and my needs and I am so happy with the result and was also a great guide with the financing process. He went the extra mile when putting in offers and really worked with the sellers agent. I am confident that he is the reason my offer was accepted on the property I ultimately ended up purchasing.

My family and I moved to Seattle over 18 months ago, renting initially. A year ago - we decided that our stay was more permanent and began attending open houses to get a feel for the neighborhoods and houses. It was at one of these open houses that we met Robert and immediately liked his honest and can-do attitude. We decided straight away we were going to use him as our realtor and haven't looked back since. We had the dependency of preparing and selling our house in another city, so it was a pretty long lead time before we were actually ready to buy. Robert was very knowledgeable of the Seattle neighborhoods and really learned about us along the way in terms of calibrating the houses he was showing us based on our feedback of the last. It really was an efficient process throughout. We finally found our dream home in Magnolia and the closing process - as stressful as that can be (thanks to delays by the banks) - went really well. Robert kept us well informed, was super responsive and we were really happy with his service.

Robert is a cheerful, upbeat an optimist individual. He is a pleasure to work with. In such a tough market, with such a difficult client (me) finding a home and closing the transaction in a matter of three months requires perseverance, flexibility, patience, motivation and optimism. He never pushed me to write an offer that I was not fully comfortable with. He was always open to help and go above and beyond standard scope of services. This was a unique situation for both of us, as I was moving to WA State and I hunting home from out of state. I never actually saw the house I finally bought. He soon earned my trust and made me feel very comfortable to make such an important decision with so many unknowns.

Robert Johnson was the best part of our move. He is knowledgeable, professional, and just an all around nice person to be around. He has great bedside manner and when I did have a meltdown (or two😉), he responded immediately. He was always available for questions and really cares about his clients. THANK YOU ROBERT!! The whole experience was amazing. Amy and Rob

Robert was the consummate real estate professional and helped us purchase our home in Seattle area. I met him in one of the dozens of open houses that I attended on my own - he was one of the few (only?) realtors that showed a genuine interest in my house hunting that led me to retain him. He was very patient and thorough and provided a ton of data on the properties I was interested in and helped me make competitive offers. The red hot Seattle market meant it took us a few offers to get there but it was in the end due to his tenacity and perseverance. He even helped me with my mortgage and introduced me to a local lender who was able to rescue my offer by pushing through my loan application in less than 3 weeks. He is knowledgeable about the Seattle real estate and has good connections in the trade (inspectors, insurers, lenders...). Overall, you will be hard pressed to find a more caring and professional realtor in the Seattle area. Highly recommended!

We decided to sell our north Seattle home and simply called Windermere and Robert took the call. We ended up signing with him and are very glad that we did. He was quick on everything. He came over that afternoon and we chatted. He did an initial walk-through and came up with a preliminary idea of listing price, etc... After doing the comps he felt we could raise our expectations of an offer. We felt that we would like to have the house on the market sooner than we had discussed and Robert was very helpful in getting everything lined up so that we could do that. In the end, we sold the house in five days for a lot over our asking price. We are very happy with the entire process and would highly recommend Robert. He was responsive, knowledgeable, and calm. He was able to easily guide us through our questions and would forecast for us what would happen next. Everything went according to schedule and expectations. Thanks Robert!
