Sara Stephenson

  • Sara helped me buy a home

      Sara Stephenson was our real estate agent on a home my husband and I recently bought. She did a fantastic job. I cannot say enough about her professionalism and the quality of service we received from her. It was a very difficult transaction due to a lot of inspection issues on the property and out of state Sellers. But Sara made it so easy for us. She is the queen of finesse and negotiation! She turned what could have been a nightmare into a smooth process and got the deal done. If you're looking to buy or sell a home, I strongly recommend you use Sara Stephenson if you want a truly pleasant transaction experience.

    • Sara listed and sold my home

        Sara is an excellent agent in all regards. She sold my beach front home on Camano Island in only 6 days. Sara smoothly and proactively handled all the accepts of getting the property ready market; from staging, arranging minor repairs, finding painters, roof cleaners, carpenters to rebuilding the large view deck and gardeners to tidy up the waterfront. She consulted with local real estate agents on pricing and other local information. I also used Sara Stephenson to sell my Orcas Island waterfront compound several years ago. It was an exclusive high end property which consisted of a large main house, guest house, three car garage, swimming pool, tennis court, dock, pool house with additional guest quarters. It was built y renowned Northwest architect Tom Bosworth on the west side of Orcas and completely private. She is intelligent, has a great team of service providers, works well with other agents, keeps her eye on all details and is totally honest and dedicated to her clients.

      • Sara listed and sold my home

          I had a lot to do before getting my house on the market but not enough time. Sara went above and beyond to help me handle what I couldn't and took away a lot of my stress!

        • Sara helped me buy a home

            Sara is fantastic! She helped us buy a house last spring and we couldn't be happier with her services. While buying a house is stressful, Sara's knowledge and experience made the process fun and relaxing. She's a wonderful balance of being both calm and assertive, and her communication both with us and with the sellers was excellent. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a house

          • Sara listed and sold my home

              Working with Sara was amazing! She walked into our fixer-upper and immediately saw its potential. She worked tirelessly helping us get it ready – making trips to Goodwill to get rid of stuff, moving furniture, helping to clean up the yard, bringing in her own items for staging for Open Houses. She actually painted the front porch two hours before we had photos taken! She held six Open Houses, each of which was very busy. We had multiple offers and eventually sold for over list price. And during the whole process we encountered a few problems that she handled with calm professionalism. She responded immediately whenever I called or texted. She made us feel as if we were her only clients, and she was passionate about making sure we got the highest possible price. We give Sara our wholehearted recommendation!

            • Sara helped me buy a home

                Being foreign first home buyers in Seattle I'm sure we gave Sara a lot of extra work to ensure everything was accomplished; we completely relied on her and we couldn't have chosen any better. Sara was extremely responsive and supportive during the entire process; everything went perfectly smooth and we felt driven and supported in every step we took. We always had the sensation she was very knowledgeable and spot on, so we definitely recommend Sara!

              • Sara listed and sold my home

                  When we decided to sell our house, we interviewed four agents. Sara was by far our favorite. She was very responsive, getting back to us every time we reached out to her, and she followed through on things she said she would do. But what we actually liked most was how she seemed to have a vision for our house right away. We thought we would have to sell it as a tear-down. We loved how she imagined staging the little apartment downstairs, and her sensible suggestion to just take the lock off the sticky back door (which had a second, working lock anyway), and not to bother buying a new dishwasher. It was exciting listening to her! She worked tirelessly helping us get it ready – making trips to Goodwill to get rid of stuff, moving furniture, helping to clean up the yard, bringing in her own items for staging for Open Houses. She actually painted the front porch two hours before we had photos taken! She held six Open Houses, each of which was very busy. We had multiple offers and eventually sold for over list price. And during the whole process we encountered a few problems that she handled with calm professionalism. She made us feel as if we were her only clients, and she was passionate about making sure we got the highest possible price. We give Sara our wholehearted recommendation!

                • Sara helped me buy a home

                    Sara was awesome form the moment we met. She was a joy to talk to and to be around. She got to know us and our house preferences quickly. She was very dedicated and professional. Whenever we had a question about a house, she was always able to get in contact and find the information very quickly. We went on numerous house tours, some lasting several hours. We enjoyed every minute! It was a joy touring with Sara, learning about houses, the market, and also just hanging out. When it came to buying our house, we are extremely happy with the house and the price we paid for it. We would recommend Sara to anyone who is looking to buy a house!

                  • Sara helped me buy a home

                      Sara took the time to get to know us. Listened to what we wanted in a home. Provided a broad range of homes within our criteria so that we could quickly down select to a home that met our needs. Sara was a part of our team, fast friends working together!

                    • Sara helped me buy a home

                        My husband and I decided to jump in quickly to the crazy Seattle market. We had unique requirements and were undecided between condo or single family home. Sara quickly did her homework and within one day we found our home! Sara took her time to guide us through the home buying journey. We highly recommend Sara!

                      • "Sara was very patient with our needs and gave generously of her time, EVEN after the sale had been made. Outstanding."

                      • "Be sure to work with Sara Stephenson at Windermere Capital Hill! We were first-time home buyers and totally new to the entire process. Sara was patient, thorough, flexible with her time and she was readily available for quick questions/concerns. We had such a great experience buying our amazing new home! She explained everything and she was also able to move quickly, which is crucial in this market. Sara is someone that we trust completely and recommend whole-heartedly."

                      • "We Had the great fortune of working with Sara Stephenson when purchasing our first home, and we wanted to commend her on making it a delightful and successful experience.We met Sara per chance. She was the listing agent for a home having an open house one Sunday. While we weren't shopping for an agent, or for a home per se, she was such a breath of fresh air she gave us the courage to actually begin to search and interview her as our agent.Sara is a good listener and diligent worker. She responded quickly and thoroughly to our questions. Since we were first time homebuyers, it was especially helpful to have a person who demonstrated alacrity and commitment. She was very attuned to our likes and dislikes and was always available and ready to move on a dime.Her negotiating skills also impressed us and we felt confident that she would work in our best interest. She did a great job! What could have been a very stressful experience was actually pleasant, and we thank Sara and Windermere for its professionalism and overall excellent service."
