TESTIMONIALS

"Holley had helped our son's family buy their house in Queen Anne in 2021 and they were extremely happy with her, so naturally we went to Holley when our time to buy came.
Holley made the whole process a delight, even in this troubled market. She showed us many houses and did not mind us being so picky.
She correctly predicted when some houses would come up for sale, at a time when houses for sale were few and far between.
At the end, her knowledge of the market and her many contacts enabled us to buy our dream home in a very competitive situation. She managed the negotiation process and advised us during it, writing our offer under time pressure.
Being new to Seattle, we really appreciated her help navigating the market and home ownership here.
We would certainly go to Holley anytime we would need to buy/sell real estate."

 

"Holley is really the best you can get for an agent - professional, great market knowledge, organized and responsive. Holley did an amazing job marketing the property and negotiated a smooth and painless sale for us. I'd highly recommend her for anyone looking to buy or sell a property as I have worked with her on both."

"Our family has worked with Holley Ring for over a decade, for various services including purchasing our Seattle home. We simply could not imagine a pro more skilled, knowledgeable, responsive, and personable. We've never had a single missed beat when it comes to communication--Holley gets us, sees our needs, recognizes what we're looking for and why, brings us great opportunities, takes interest in our investment ideas, is willing to think creatively with us, and has an excellent sense of humor, too--a must, we think, when it comes to cream-of-the-crop dealmakers. One of the things we've seen is how deeply respected Holley is among her peers and competitors in Seattle's intense marketplace. This is something we would have overlooked earlier in real-estate investing, but now we know how much these relationships bring advantages to clients, whether buying, selling, considering home improvements, browsing, or just starting to dream. This is a relationship that we value in the extreme, both personally and financially. Holley's clients are in the absolute best of hands. Working with her is not only a joy, but also, as time has shown our family and several of our relatives and friends, just plain smart."

"Holley is an extremely professional and knowledgeable agent, and makes the whole process of buying and selling a home so much easier and more enjoyable. She knows the market really well and is able to provide great advice, she partners closely with other agents in the area to provide real market insights, and she goes above and beyond to truly partner with her clients. I have so much trust and appreciation for Holley's level-headedness, kindness and professional savvy, and could not recommend her more strongly!"

"Holley Ring of Windermere Queen Anne was an AMAZING agent. She is very knowledgeable, has a wonderful attitude and did a fantastic job helping us prepare our home for sale. Our home sold in less than a week with multiple offers. We could not have been happier. I highly recommend Holley!"

"Unparalleled service, knowledge and attention to detail. Holley Ring has deep knowledge of the market, an eye for design and investment potential. She is also a pleasure to work with. I definitely recommend that you choose Holley for your next real estate project."

"Holley was instrumental in selling our first home and helping us purchase our second one. She was engaged, professional, very knowledgeable and helped us navigate both transactions with ease.
"Holley helped us buy a house and sell a house. She was a trusted partner and expert in both transactions. I give her my highest recommendation. If we were ever to sell our house, I would work with her again without question."
 
"We first met Holley while looking at another property on Queen Anne. Her genuine easy-going attitude and interest in her clients needs caught our attention -- some relationships have a strained and unnatural feel to them -- not so with Holley. Although we did not buy the property where we initially met Holley, her name stuck with us. In our most recent purchase on 8/14/2014 Holley was the agent, her work was instrumental in us becoming new home-owners. She advised on pre-approval agents (a list of three) from which we picked one. Once we located the property she advised us on what would be a correct offer for this particular house; she must have spent the same night preparing the bid-documents for us to sign and submit the following day. Once our bid was approved Holley followed the post-bid to close process and always seemed available for questions and impromptu meetings. She sat in on separate meetings with my my lender, with escrow & with the financial institution holding my down-payment working up scenarios that would expedite the process between all parties keeping us on track to close on time without any penalties.Holley also had key-people in place to get all inspections expedited and turned around quickly, an extremely valuable asset for us buyers as in my case my mind was racing 1000 mph focusing and accumulating all the documentation the banks now require post-2008 recession. I can honestly say that it felt like having a team-player on our side that we could trust blindly while focusing on gathering information and meeting -- at the time -- seemingly countless deadlines.Holley will also be our agent in the upcoming sale of our condo. I would not hesitate for a second recommending Holley Ring to anybody that is purchasing (or selling) their home or property."

"Holley helped us buy our first home right after the downturn in the market when homes on the market were scarce and the buying frenzy was still on. She understood our buying goals and negotiated on our behalf with loyalty and integrity.  She was so extraordinary in connecting with the listing agents, learning about the homes, readily offering her experience regarding the potential for the house and property for the area and market, and provided excellent recommendations on contractors, broker, and other valued buying strategies."

"We are so fortunate to have met Ellen! We owe so much to her for ??nding us our dream home
and making sure that our offer was accepted in such a competitive housing market. We have
very specific and unusual needs in a house and she was a great listener and patient with us.
Throughout the process to purchase a home she was thoughtful and an advocate for us from
start to finish. We don't want to imagine how things might have gone had we not had her on
our side!"

"Ellen was fabulous during our home search, and ended up finding us our dream home. She
was timely, reliable, and flexible. Ellen continued to be great during closing."

"We've worked with Ellen on the purchase of three homes, she continues to be the very best in
the industry. She was very resourceful and continued to follow up with creative ideas
throughout the process. We highly recommend Ellen and hope to work with her again!"
