At first glance, the housing market is horrifying as a first-time buyer. You don't want to make a wrong decision, and you certainly don't want to buy something that you detest. There's lots of noise online about what to do or NOT to do. And with that sea of information, it's an intimidating and daunting process. Having a quality and professional guide...makes all the difference. So, rather than individually try to separate the wheat from the chaff, save yourself the headache and find an expert. With Brian, I was able to ask honest questions and receive understandable, quality answers. He was flexible with my schedule and devoted time to ensure we had a mutual understanding of my goals and preferences. But really, our success distilled into one simple fact: I trusted him. I trusted he had my best interest at heart, and I trusted his professional opinion. And that's what made all the difference. Throughout the whirlwind of scanning, favoriting, and visiting properties, we found something the fit my criteria for location, budget, and needs. I am incredibly grateful that I was able to work with Brian Hayter, and I strongly encourage any prospective homebuyer to do the same. It'll be the best decision you make.

Brian Hayter, a realtor with Windermere has located two homes for us in the Seattle area in the past 5 years. The first one was a small townhome in West Seattle. We trusted Brian so much that we bought it without seeing it while living in Charlotte NC. Unfortunately, we were not able to use the small townhouse so we rent it out full time. It has appreciated in value significantly. We decided we wanted to move back to the Seattle area after my husband retires by year end. Brian got to work over the past year trying to find the right house within our budget. A house in Snohomish came on the market the end of January. My husband and I both liked it and asked Brian to see it. Within a day Brian and my son saw the house and we made an offer that evening. Brian navigated us through the closing that was done in NC. We have so much trust in Brian that we will use him again to sell our West Seattle property in July.

Working with Brian was a joy. He went out of his way to help us through innumerable home reviews and visits before finally finding the perfect match. He never complained or made us feel like a nuisance (even though I know we were). In the final stretch, Brian’s reputation with other realtors is what finally clenched our deal ahead of an “all cash” offer. I cannot imagine a better experience in buying a home.

Brian was more than helpful in finding us a new home. He was extremely honest, upfront, and was able to find us a great house that fit right in our price range! He was extremely communicative and easy to reach to answer any of our questions at all times. Brian made buying a house breeze with my busy schedule.

Brian’s professionalism, experience, and authenticity all contributed to a wonderful home buying experience! As first time homebuyers, Brian made the process of buying our home painless and stress free. He educated us on the current market, the buying process, and never pressured us to consider homes outside of our price range. Brian responded quickly to all of our questions and requests to see homes. He is a responsive and diligent realtor. When we found the house we wanted to make an offer on, Brian wrote an offer that was accepted for under asking price! He was with us every step of the home buying process, staying during our home inspection and talking us through the various discoveries. Following our home inspection, Brian used his strong negotiation skills to negotiate further credits for us, from the seller. Throughout our whole experience, we really felt Brian was FOR US. He is a genuine person who truly cares about helping his clients. He worked hard to deliver the best possible outcome for us and we are thankful to have a realtor we can trust!

Brian has been part of our lives for a long time. He is the most upstanding wonderful person and knows the market well. Brian typically has a to-do list for us to get our house ready to sell, but then it typically sells in a weekend with him. He tends to dot the i's and cross the t's to give you the best chance at success. Brian gives really quality of advice, and I would recommend to anyone to use him as your realtor and follow all his advice. He really puts your house in the best light, which he reminds us all the time is our biggest asset. I would say that we know Brian very well. We met him incidentally years ago while going to other openings. We just kept running into him, because so many people were using his services. He is professional, above board, very smart and experienced, and just a great guy. Buying and selling with him has always felt more pleasant than it should be. We have now sold two houses with him and bought one. I would never use anyone else in the Seattle area and I trust him completely to give me advice about home ownership and real estate. He will make sure you get the best price from your home within your timeline and always do his best for you. You couldn't be in better hands.

I really wanted to make sure in writing to you I can convey how amazing Heather and Brian were. The sale of our home was forced due to a Divorce. So the situation Heather and Brian walked into was difficult. Not only was I really not wanting to sell my home, I also was losing my relationship of 32 years. From the moment I met the both of them at my home they were understanding, thoughtful and made me feel that we could get through this process. They answered every question, listened to my needs and were so accommodating with my schedule and animals which was a huge hurdle. I was at the home by myself, with 4 animals and had to get the house ready. They gave me homework and a schedule to have it done and they made themselves available to help. Even if it meant time away from their family. That to me speaks volumes, they made me feel like part of their family. To be frankly honest I just wanted to give up somedays, sometimes Heather and Brian were my therapists as well and kept me going. Without the two of them I would have never made it through, and the best part of all of this is I made two friends for life. Sometimes we have to look for positive things that come from horrible situations. Heather and Brian were exactly that, two guardian angels. V

I cannot say enough good things about Brian. He helped me buy my first house and then sell that house a few years later, and both experiences were better than I expected. When buying my first house, he walked me through everything. He pointed out things to watch out for in houses that were flipped (looked nice but the work cut corners) and when the house I ended up buying went on the market, he knew it was the right one for me. He helped me to put together an offer that, while it didn’t offer the highest amount for the house, was attractive enough for the buyer to accept. A few years later when I was considering selling, I contacted him to get an idea of what the process would look like. He provided us with information on what the current market was like and when he would recommend selling. We were moving out of state, so he got us in touch with a local real estate agent so we could start looking for houses. He helped us determine what fixes around the house were worth the expense before putting the house up for sale and gave us contacts for people to do the work. The landscaper and handyman he recommended were outstanding and really helped get our house ready for selling. He arranged for the house to be staged and for professional pictures to be taken, including a digital 3D tour of the house. We put the house on the market on a Thursday, and by the following Tuesday we had over 10 offers. I would absolutely recommend Brian to anyone buying or selling a house. He is wonderful to work with and helps you every step of the way.

We had a great experience working with Brian who were referred to us by our neighbor (who had bought multiple properties with Brian’s help). There is no doubt that Brian is knowledgeable about the local markets he works with and provides professional services in every step of the buying process. More importantly, Brian takes time to get to know us and ensure all our explicit and implicit needs of the house were clearly communicated. After we first engaged Brian about our purchase plan, we had to postpone our plan couple of times due to various factors. Brian has been extremely patient through all these times. When it came to the time of seeing houses, Brian has also gone extra miles accommodating our needs despite his own busy schedule with work and two kids. Even after the buying process is complete, Brian has never hesitated to help whenever we reached out to him. We would highly recommend him to anyone who needs to buy/sell homes and looking for a life-long trust-worthy friend in real estate!

Brian was an old family friend (now hopefully forever friend!) who I reconnected with when my partner and I began house hunting in Seattle. Like many buyers in this area, we looked at many properties and submitted several offers before having our offer submitted and going under contract on our house. Every step of the way, Brian was there to support, answer questions, make proactive suggestions , chat, provide direction, whatever it was that we needed, and he did so in the most professional, responsive, and friendly way! He is extremely knowledgeable about the local market and provided us a lot of invaluable guidance; we trusted him completely. His expertise also extends to negotiation - his strategy enabled us to have our offer accepted quickly at a fair price, which is no easy feat! Despite this being the biggest financial commitment of our lives, he made the whole process stress-free and very enjoyable. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, and we will be referring all of our friends to him. We are so appreciative that we were able to work with him and very grateful to have him in our lives going forward.

Brian is the most thorough, knowledgeable and pleasant realtor I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He handled a very quick transaction for us (offer and closing in under 10 days). He knows the area and the market and his knowledge and expertise and attention to detail was evident in every communication that we had. Amazing experience! You cannot go wrong with Brian.
