TESTIMONIALS

Brian Osberg | Home Seller

When our rental was sold to a new owner and we found out we would need to move, my wife and I began reading about how hard it can be to purchase a home under Seattle's current real estate conditions. We heard many stories of potential buyers being outbid time and time again and braced ourselves for a long, difficult process. Fortunately for us, we had Julie Dillon as our Realtor. I believe it was Julie's extra work that made our first offer the only offer we would need to give. Julie immediately found a property that was exactly what we were looking for. It took less than two hours of looking at houses to find one we wanted to purchase. She then went the extra mile to make sure our bid would be chosen and gave us solid advice on what type of offer to make. Julie researched the property and seller and used that information to tailor our offer. She even personally delivered the offer to the seller's agents. Julie didn't stop there, she continued her research and gave us information on how to insure the heating oil tank at the new property. She was also diligent in making sure that a repair in progress was completed and paid for by the previous owner on schedule. With the house we were able to purchase, I am able to stay within walking distance to work, meaning that I do not have to spend hours in traffic each week when I could be at home with my wife and daughter. We are ecstatic to have a home that fits all of our needs and Julie is a huge reason for that. Thank you!

We were first time home buyers with very little knowledge about the market or really how to do anything about buying a home. Julie walked us through every step we needed to do piece by piece, she gave amazing advice about the market and how it's going to change over the time we told her were going to be looking for a house. Luckily, we ended up finding our perfect house in about a month thanks to the queries she set up for us. Every house she found was one that we were interested in, it was honestly hard to choose which ones to look at and which ones to skip over. She helped us get everything in order to buy the house on time, and throughout the entire process she was a great help and friend.

I have been really lucky to have worked with Julie Dillon. Julie was always available to answer questions. Julie educated me about the entire home buying process from getting the mortgage to the final walk through. Julie is a wonderful person and very professional.

Julie works hard, diligently, and is a strong communicator. She made us feel like we were her priority, no matter the time of day or night. She really went the extra mile for us and helped us find our dream home! At first, we were hesitant to work with her due to the contract agreement that stated we couldn't work with anyone else for 120 days. After just meeting Julie, this made it really hard to know what our experience would be like and if we would enjoy working with her. Looking back now, we would highly recommend her as an agent. She puts a lot of care and attention into her work which resulted in a really positive experience.

Julie was our realtor when we bought our home in 2015, during the peak of one of Seattle's hot markets. She went above and beyond to make sure our offer stood out among many. When we had to sell our home just 3.5 years later, due to a job transfer, we knew we didn’t want to work with anyone but Julie. From start to finish, Julie exceeded our expectations once again. Julie was excellent at communicating and anticipating the kind of help we needed. My husband and I were both overwhelmed with the many details of moving our family out of state, and Julie was there to help make everything easier. She gave us references for a wonderful handyman, landscaper and even a personal organizer. The stager she referred helped us with paint colors and staged our home beautifully. Throughout the process it was very clear that Julie knew exactly what we needed to do to have our home sell quickly. And sell quickly it did! When we moved out of state before the house was ready to be put on the market, Julie was there supervising, gardening and even cleaning things herself. It sounds cliché, but it’s not an exaggeration to say that we couldn’t have done it without her. My husband and I both marvel at the good fortune we’ve had with Julie as our realtor. Her knowledge of the Seattle market, both when buying and selling our home, elevated our financial situation in ways we never anticipated. And in helping us sell our home so quickly, we are now on our way to purchasing a wonderful home in our new state. We highly recommend Julie.

Julie Dillon has been the perfect fit for my real estate needs. I sold my house and bought another through Julie and was kept in the loop during all stages of the process. Julie knows the Seattle Area well, is efficient and very professional.

Alicia Sloan | Home Buyer

Julie is a special kind of realtor who made my first time home buying experience feel like a positive growth experience! She not only knows real estate, but she really got to know and understand me as a person and what would make me happy in a place I could own. It was especially challenging looking for a home during the COVID-19 pandemic since we had to make appointments to see potential condos and wear masks and gloves once inside. I learned a lot from Julie about what to look for and to seriously consider what was important to me. She walked me through each step of the home buying process, which I'm eternally grateful for since I didn't wasn't sure if I wanted to buy or stay a renter. I'm grateful for Julie's patience and coaching during times when I had doubts. She also had my back during negotiations and closing. She was tough with the seller's real estate agent when she needed to be. I would highly recommend her! If I ever upgrade, I will go to her as my realtor.

Julie Dillon was an amazing real estate agent. She was able to serve as project manager for multiple services such as the installation of new carpet, landscaping, and painting to make my house appealing for a quick sale. With an eye to detail she coordinated minor repair work, staging and marketing. I would not have been able to manage everything involved in preparing my house for sale without her help.

EVD | Home Buyer

I couldn't recommend hiring Julie Dillon enough - she is an amazing Realtor. I've dreamed about a cabin for years, but all I could give Julie were general principles versus specifics about what we wanted - including the location. She invested time to understand us deeply so that when the absolutely perfect thing came on the market - she recognized it. Within a week, I'd made an offer. Within a month, I'm sitting on my slice of heaven. And it was hard work - there were 8 other offers. We won because Julie thought through every detail, she had me two steps ahead, worked relationships and considered every angle and contingency. Our vacation home dreams came true because of her. Julie's networking savvy, brilliant offer strategizing, and effective negotiation skills won the day, and her dedication, extra care and good humor won our hearts. We are eternally grateful!

Throughout the selling process we found Julie to be very professional and responsive, providing guidance to help ensure our condo was ready for the market. She worked with her marketing colleagues to develop materials to help prospective buyers see and understand the property online before then viewing it in person. Ultimately, we realized a price we were very happy with, and the sale closed quickly.

Dennis Buffloe | Home Buyer

I recently purchased a new home; it was a stressful endeavor. Working with Julie Dillon on the project in contrast was a pleasure. Julie helped find the perfect home for me based on her knowledge of the area and the criteria I provided. She was able to synthesize the information and easily spotted a home that came on the market that was just right. After finding the home Julie helped organize all the moving parts that needed to happen in order to make the deal happen. She negotiated effectively in a market where buyers have not generally been getting much say in their deals. I feel very lucky to have had Julie on my side as she was able to get a number of concessions in a very tricky market. I will be recommending Julie with high praise to everyone I meet who needs a realtor.

Julie was wonderful to work with and helped me sell my condo for a much higher price than anticipated. Throughout the process of getting it ready for sale, Julie was consistently professional and reliable. She had an excellent network of financial, marketing, staging, handyman and other services required to prep an older condo for sale. She also oversaw most of the work that needed to be done on the unit, and made great decisions about upgrades. She put in a lot of work for this and it paid off. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
