What do Clients Say?

“Three years ago My wife was offered an executive position at Microsoft. This offer would require us both to move from Northern Virginia to the Northwest. On our exploratory visit we were referred to Nancy Backman as our Realtor. As soon as we met Nancy her warm and welcoming attitude made us comfortable. We knew that Nancy was the right agent for us to find us our new home. Nancy was tireless, extremely patient and a pleasure to be around. Not only did she take us to every possible area in Seattle and the Eastside. Nancy also gave us educated and detailed background  information on each area that interested us. Nancy was extremely knowledgeable in  helping us determine what houses would be a good investment. We stayed at corporate housing in Bellevue, during that time Nancy stayed in constant communication with us and let us know as new houses came on the market. Nancy picked us up most weekends and showed us many properties. We finally found a home in Bellevue that was perfect for us in every way. We were very impressed with Nancy and felt that she was not only our agent, she was our friend. Three years later we decided to move back to Northern Virginia. There was no question on whom we would call to sell our home. We called Nancy. As usual Nancy immediately responded and gave a suggested price to ask for. Nancy also told me what Improvements to do to help expedite the sale. Our house sold after only a few days on the market. Again, Nancy was perfect in every aspect of the process. We could not have been happier. What a flawless experience!"

"Nancy… I just wanted to send you a note thanking you for the terrific work you did to find us a place here in Seattle. You were incredibly responsive from the start and did your homework up front for the specific listing that best matched our wants. You made yourself available at our convenience and your engagement in helping us secure the right place at the Bravern is much appreciated. We look forward to working with you again in the future and will recommend you with pride to any of our executives searching in the area. Please pass on my thanks to your senior leadership."

From the moment Nancy Backman walked in our door to introduce herself, we could see that she could create the image we wanted prospective buyers to see.  She displayed the knowledge, preparation, confidence, presence, and communicating abilities that are also essential and later on incredibly helpful in the process of selling our home.  In the following month, her network of contacts were able to transform the house we had been living in (beautiful house but in need of repairs, paint, cleaning) into the beautiful and desired home it is.  What we soon found out, is that she has a wonderful network of contacts  who got the work done on our house that brought it to that point, that very elegant  image, of how we wanted to show our home.  Her repair person Luke Thoreson, stager Karen Cervarich,  painter Ben Ornelas and cleaning crew Four Seasons were all exceptional people to work with – working with us in an efficient and timely manner.  Her photographer was exceptional as well as the marketing materials and they really captured the elegance and beauty of our home.   We were also very pleased with the back and forth communication throughout the selling of our home with Nancy.  Especially, since we had moved out of state before it went on the market. She was always very responsive anytime we had any questions.  She was always there for recommendations. Without her communication, we would be completely blind to how things were going with the house, but she regularly communicated with us about how open houses were going, what kind of interest there was in the house, as well as the state of the house and yard.Nancy Backman was a shining star and we were so fortunate to have her as our realtor thru the selling of our home.
