References Since we got recommended to Gretchen from our Loan Officer, it has been nothing but AWESOME!!!! Gretchen is just great! She knew exactly what we wanted and knew all the right questions to ask us so she can make the transaction as best and easy as we can. Gretchen was always pleasant and professional. When we would go to look at the houses, she would ask seller all the right questions that had to be asked! When communicating through email, the responses were really quick, if not instant. Gretchen has been nothing but wonderful, great, knowledgeable, and all other wonderful words of praise. I can not say enough about how great Gretchen is. It has been best experience ever! AND I TRULY MEAN THAT!!!! Thank you Gretchen!!!!!!!!!!!! Roman K. Gretchen Allen was a delight to work with. She was always optimistic and upbeat in a depressing market taking over the listing of our home from another Realtor who was not able to sell our home over 90 days. We found her to be very knowledgeable of the East side market and its trends, and easily reachable at any time. She had a large bank of resources from which to draw at any time. A particular strength of Gretchen's was her determination and stick-to-itness to follow through on issues especially with other Realtors. Her best strength was she got the job done i.e. she sold our home. Jerry and Sandy, Redmond WA Dora and I are very happy to have the fortune of having Gretchen Allen on our side. There's a lot more to finding a home besides just finding a new home. You have to find the home that you want. But that still only scratches the surface. The real work comes after you've found the new home you want. The inspections (aced it with Tim Peterson's Precise Home Inspection Services), negotiating with the seller, round after round of last minute forms from the bank, and nervous underwriters can all add up to nightmares. But Gretchen was there every step of the way. When things got stuck, she knew what levers to pull. When there was uncertainty, she knew the right people to call. We will certainly be calling Gretchen again in the future. Andrew and Dora, Redmond WA Dick and I wanted to thank you for providing the perfect home buying experience for us. The process was made virtually stress-free due to your expertise and professionalism. From the first home we viewed to the final one we purchased, you took care to complete your homework, so you had the answers before we asked the questions. You gave so willingly of your evenings, weekends and yes, two holidays, to ensure we were able to move forward smoothly. You made us feel like your only clients, even though we knew how busy you were. You made time for every email, text, phone call or whatever we needed at the time. Please know that you made all the difference in the world for us in getting through the home buying process. We are in love with our log home and look forward to sharing the beauty of the home and the area with family and friends for years and years to come. We are anxious to share our home buying experience with anyone and everyone who asks - and will be excited to send them your way. By the way, I looked up "real estate expert and professional" in the dictionary and wasn't at all surprised to see your picture! Thank you for everything. With Warm Regards, Dick and Tracy My husband and I have worked with many Brokers in the past and none compare to Gretchen. She is very personable and one who you feel like you've known forever. We feel so fortunate to have used her in the selling of our home as well as the purchase of our new home. She never ceased to encourage us in spite of a declining economy which is exactly what we needed to endure the process of selling until we received our winning offer. Just a few of the many qualities we appreciated most about Gretchen was her promptness in responding to any concerns or questions we may have had, availability in showing homes to us, and her communication skills in all aspects. She always made it clear that she was working for us and had our best interest in mind. Her integrity and character cannot be matched in our opinion. It was important to us that we had an agent we could trust and someone who would work hard on our behalf. She truly went the extra mile for us in an unexpected turn of events that we will forever be grateful for. Over time, Gretchen becomes more than just a real estate agent, she becomes a friend who truly cares about her clients, loves what she does, and is passionate about it. We will without a doubt be using her again as our agent when we sell and purchase a home in the future! "Gretchen was referred to me by a good friend. She was touted as being professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. She is that and much more! She helped me pick a location that was perfect for me, and helped me through a difficult sale in a tough market. She is amazing and the best real estate professional I have ever met! She was always calm, was able to handle very challenging situations, knows real estate backwards and forwards, knows the up to the minute market conditions, and returned my calls immediately. We had two transactions going at the same time, and she made me feel like I was her most important client! She is a one of a kind agent." Lynn H., Issaquah WA to Bellevue WA |

Attention Home Sellers – Buyers “Gretchen was able to assess our needs and apply her knowledge of the area to find us several places that would be great fits. What we decided on was in the perfect location, price, and future investment for us. I really felt like I was dealing with a friend by the time it was all done and am excited for when it comes time to work with her again to find my next place.” Drew & Carina, Kirkland WA . |

Selling one's dream home can be a very emotional experience, and in a buyer's market it is especially difficult. We were very pleased to have Gretchen handle our sale and do most of the worrying for us. Her cherry disposition and attention to all the marketing details resulted in a successful sale in a timely manner. We reccommend her highly. Ralph and Jackie Thank You Gretchen for working so hard to find the right buyers for our home. Your professionalism, along with the awesome presentation materials you provided, got the job done ! We have already recommended you to our friends. Thanks Again. We could not be happier with the service that Gretchen has given us. She listened to what it was we were looking for and then, with difficult perameters, she found the perfect piece of property for us. She helped us every step. She was completely available to us. We never had to go throught someone else, we had direct communication with her at all times literally!
She also did a great job of selling our other home, with her attention to detail, our house showed like a model. Her advertising, brochures, open houses etc.... all of it did exactly what we needed. We had to close on a specific date and that is exactly what happened.
I am happy to say that not only is Gretchen our Broker, she is also my friend and both David and I look forward to working with her again.
Cathy and Steve My husband and I relocated from
outside of Washington and slected Gretchen based on a recommendation
from a local real estate investor. She was very knowledgable
about all areas around Seattle which I relied upon. She searched
for properties on a daily basis and was always very quick to
respond. Once we found a house, Gretchen ensured we were the
most competitive offer. There were 16 offers on the house but
its ours and I attribute that to Gretchen. We are very happy
and would work with her again. Thank you again Gretchen for all of the attention
in getting our house sold! We appreciate you always being so prompt
in getting back with us with any questions or concerns. We felt that
the price range of our home took someone with professionalism and class
to meet our client needs. You fit the bill! You know your business
and were honest with us. We would recommend you to anyone buying or
selling a home!
Dawn and Michael, I selected Gretchen to be my
Broker after walking through a home that she was representing.
Her high standards of professionalism and attention to detail
in her work were the things that I noticed immediately. Gretchen
also surrounds herself with an entire team of professionals of
similar character who collaborate to help her clients throughout
the process of buying and selling homes. I would have been lost
without her help and support in the sale of my former home and
relocation to my new home. She is a delight to work with and
I would recommend her highly to any of my friends. We relied heavily on Gretchen
during our real estate purchase to contact the appropriate people
and she did so promptly. Being new to the Seattle area, we valued
her area knowledge, surroundings and school familiarity. We love
our new home and are extremely grateful to Gretchen for assisting
us. She went above and beyond! "If you're looking
for a thorough and dependable Broker, look no further than
Gretchen! She knows her business and pays attention to the
smallest details. We would recommend her to anyone buying or
selling a home or condo." Are you looking for a Real Estate Agent, who is knowledgeable in all aspects of real estate transactions, one who is ethical, reliable, and professional? One who works very hard for you? Look no further – Gretchen should be your agent! Gretchen recently listed our home, representing us as the seller. Her services and the marketing of our home was above and beyond our expectations. She has great communication and negotiating skills and pays attention to every small detail, including the paperwork. We highly recommend Gretchen Allen as your agent. Howard and Betty,

With my personal investments and in transactions for clients, I have been involved in many real estate transactions. I have never encountered anyone who can match your level of knowledge and customer service. You anticipated problems and issues in advance, and were always prepared with an answer. You went beyond the call of duty in attending to details. We especially appreciate the help that you gave us in the financing package. We are convinced that your involvement in the purchase of the home and arranging financing resulted in significant savings. Thank you very much for making this entire experience a very pleasant one. We are very pleased with our Mercer Island home, but we are sure that it won't be the last. We'll plan to embark on this venture again with you sometime in the future. Bruce and Cheryl

| In regards to
my recent home purchase, I would like to express the wonderful
home buying experience that was experienced by the help of an incredible
Broker, Gretchen Allen. Gretchen only showed my homes that I had
specified to her and I was impressed with her real estate background
and thorough knowledge of the homes. I was so impressed by her
ability; kindness, integrity and dependability that I asked her
to also process my loan. I would not hesitate to recommend Gretchen
to anyone for any real estate transaction. It was a pleasure to
work with such an outstanding Broker.
Thank you Gretchen! Pamela

We moved out of state before listing, and we completely depended on Gretchen to do our job in addition to hers. Without Gretchen fielding calls, meeting service people, dealing with our renters and making herself available on our schedule we could never have sold as quickly as we did and for the price we received. Ivan and Heidi

I have worked with Gretchen for over a year as my representative on several pieces of property. I had not found a real estate agent who I felt was competent and hard working and worth their commission, that is until I met Gretchen Allen. She possessed all these qualities and more. I especially appreciated her follow through on details. I don't think anyone could do better or work harder than Gretchen Allen. She is truly an asset to her profession. Richard and Linda
