We are so glad that we chose to work with Scott Waterman in selling the home we lived in and loved for close to 40 years. Because we were relocating to a retirement community across the country we were downsizing, moving to a new community and selling the house. Scott and his wife, Lauren, worked with us over the six month plus process and were incredibly helpful and responsive to our questions and needs. Whether it was choosing movers, disposing of things that weren’t going or shredding records he had useful suggestions and knowledge. Lauren was so helpful in getting our stuff organized and packed in boxes.
Scott’s advice and expertise were also essential as we planned the sale itself and got the house prepared and staged to look its best. And, he functioned as our project manager coordinating fix up work and other logistics after we left Seattle to begin settling into our new home prior to the sale. With his guidance the pricing, listing, showing, receiving offers and final closing all got done efficiently while we were thousands of miles away. We received far more offers than expected and a very satisfying price.
We are so glad that we chose Scott. Could not have worked better.

Scott is an excellent, knowledgeable agent, and a stand up person. He is honest, kind, flexible with his time, and genuinely caring. We had a great experience with Scott finding our first house, and we are still amazed we found what we did. It took a while, but Scott never tired of us, and took us to see houses multiple days on the weekend for many weekends in a row, and was always quick to respond to texts. He is fairly laid-back, which was good for us. If you want his opinion about a house, you might have to push a little bit , but he will never push you into anything. It seems like there are a lot of agents out there who don’t play by the rules, or play deceptive games to buy or sell a house. Scott is definitely one of the good ones, and we would happily use his services again!

Scott is an absolute pleasure to work with. He takes the time to understand what you’re looking for, and if you’re uncertain, helps you discover what’s most important in a home to you. He is responsive and flexible, willing to tour dozens of homes to find the perfect fit for his client. A focused and positive mindset complement his knowledge of the local market. This guy gets it.

Absolutely outstanding service and knowledge. Scott went way above what an agent would normally do in helping us get our house ready for sale. I can't say enough good things about him. For example he personally removed debris from under my deck and provided fertilizer for the lawn.

Scott is an amazing real estate agent who not only has a great understanding of the Puget Sound real estate market, but also takes the time to know what is important to his clients. We contacted Scott to discuss how to best make a move to Seattle while also selling our house in Woodinville. He was instrumental in helping us navigate this process to maximize on the value we got on both the buying and selling side of things. While buying a house, Scott was not hesitant to point out flaws in houses that we were looking at to make sure that we were making an informed buying decision. He also gave great advice on when the best time to buy would be and how to make our offer as attractive as possible given the strong competition in this market. It is very easy in the current market to get irrational and pay more than market after not winning on a couple of offers. Scott made sure that we remained rational in our decision making. We ended up purchasing a home in our desired neighborhood, for under asking, at a price significantly lower than all the online value estimates (Zillow and others.). Next, we strategized with Scott on how to get the most value out of the house that we were selling. Having been a buyer in this crazy market, we understood the strategy of listing the house below market value to try to get buyers into a bidding war. Two days before the offer review date, we received an offer for well over asking and above what we expected to receive. We were ecstatic and ready to accept. After talking with Scott, we decided to decline the offer and wait until the offer review date. Scott could have taken the easy path and told us to take the deal, and we would still be writing a glowing review of him. However, he laid out the facts for us and the risks for both accepting and declining the offer. His recommendation was to wait until the offer review date to make a decision. After our conversations with Scott, we decided to let the offer expire, and wait until the offer review date. That ended up being a great decision. Two days later, on the offer review date, we ended up getting significantly higher than the offer that we were ready to accept before talking to Scott. The offer was significantly higher than the online estimates for the house (Zillow and others). Most of our friends who have been in the real estate market the last few years have had nothing but horror stories. Scott made this experience for us a very positive one, and we give him our highest recommendation!

Scott was very helpful to the process he had contacts with contractors, interior design experts, and others who helped get my property ready for sale. Without him it couldn't of happened as successfully as it did. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to sell their home--especially if repairs and remodel are needed prior to sale.

We are so happy that we chose Scott as our realtor. He was professional, confident, knowledgeable of the area, and capable of seeing the strong and weak points of our house. He was available, responsive and went above and beyond what we expected. Scott has multiple recommended contractors he works with, as well as a talented designer and stager. We give him the highest marks. It made selling our home a very positive experience.

I had the pleasure of working with Scott on a townhome purchase this April 2017. Even though the market has been really tough as a buyer, Scott's diligence and knowledge ensured we got the place I wanted. He's fantastic to work with and very responsive! I would recommend Scott to anyone looking for a great representative in the Seattle market.

Scott has been my go to realtor for 10 years now. Scott is honest, prompt, professional, patient, thorough, and understands the current market place. I've sold dozens of properties and have worked with many agents over the last 30 years. Scott knows exactly how to price a home to meet my needs each and every time. Scott is definitely the best agent to work with... I am currently working with Scott and I will continue to work with him. Tim, Greenlake, Maple Leaf, Roosevelt

To say I highly recommend Scott would be an understatement. I have worked with him to sell two homes, and both times were as easy and successful as I could have possibly hoped or imagined. Scott went above and beyond in helping us in whatever way we needed to make the process easier. His knowledge of what work I should do on the house before listing, recommending vendors to get the work done, and many, many more pieces of advice and legwork -- saved me thousands. Plus, he's just such a nice guy and a real pleasure to work with -- and that's super important given the amount of time you spend with a real estate agent in the process of buying or selling a home.

Scott helped me to purchase my first house. He was patient, helpful, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. I doubt I would have been successful in such a competitive market had it not been for Scott.

Scott is a great agent. He was very accessible, friendly, knowledgeable, professional yet easy-going. We are in our early 60s and had purchased several houses previously, we already had been actively looking for a house, and we had learned our way around the key web resources....when we began working with Scott. But his advice about the house search was extremely helpful in many regards, and he very patiently notified us about newly listed houses that fit our narrow criteria and provided entry for us to view several houses. He also saved us some time by filling in relevant (mostly negative) information about some houses not available in the on-line ads. Scott's most valuable service in our particular case, though, related to the actual bidding process -- the protocols of making an offer, interpreting the various documents about the house history, the inspection process, the negotiations over various items, the final closing process. Scott won our complete confidence, he helped us to buy a great house under the asking price (in Seattle), and we are very pleased with the results. Highly recommended!

Scott took me through the process of remodeling the home we were selling. He had great, creative ideas and the resources to help us get people in to do the work. He was very knowledgeable about the area and was full of great advice about how much houses were selling in the area, so how much we could get for our house without over-improving it and not getting our moneys worth. He was always available and very enjoyable to work with.

Very laid back but hard working agent. Scott was always available and prompt. He met us several times when it was convenient for us and worked hard to navigate the difficulties of buying and selling a home.

I am a Mortgage Loan Officer and have worked with Scott for years. I work with many agents, but he is one of the best. He truly cares about his clients and provides excellent service and advice. He recently helped some friends of mine sell their home and buy a new home due to their family growing. He handled all the moving parts of the transaction like a pro and guided them through a very difficult transition (they had their 2nd child during the transaction). I would highly recommend using Scott!

Scott was an amazing agent. We looked at homes for over 8 months and made 6 offers before finding our dream home. Scott never rushed us and always gave us his honest opinion. He would not us settle for anything less than our expectations and provided great insight on home price/value. Scott was responsive and genuine to all our questions. I have and will continue to recommend Scott to anyone I know looking for an agent.
