We know that you have many fine Agencies and Brokers to choose from but Bob and I are not just your average Brokers, we have a combined years of service of 38! That is lots of transactions and lots of learning how people work and search for their next home. We hope that you will decide to work with us and see for yourself! WE love our family of clients!

Susan Short

    • Susan and Bob Short are fantastic realtors! They made us so comfortable that we felt like instant friends. They promptly answered all our questions and bent over backwards to meet all our needs during a very tricky simultaneous closing involving selling our family home and purchasing a new one on a very tight schedule. Tens across the board for these two! We would highly recommend them to anyone because of their professional, can-do, honest work ethic. Two thumbs way, way up. We couldn't have been happier with their caring, personal service. House Buyer Closed Nov '18 Puyallup, WA-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Susan and her husband Bob are like having and endless resource in your corner. We would be viewing a house with Bob while Susan was calling us from the office with research results on info we requested for another home. Many late night and early morning phone calls showed this team is really committed. We had a concern about something relating to schools at a prospective home and Susan called me at 830 pm that day and gave every possible piece of info possible right down to cultural diversity. She even called an old client who lives in the neighborhood and got first hand info. These are just a few examples of the lengths they go to to make you feel secure in your purchase. Thanks Susan and Bob!
