When I started in the Real Estate business in 2013, I began as a Buyers agent for a family Real Estate team in West Seattle called The Hill Team at Keller Williams. They tought me the ropes, they mentored me, and taught me about the nuts and bolts of selling homes. It was a wonderful place to dream of launching my own Real Estate business.

Soon after, I flew the nest and went on my own, servicing all types of people throughout the years. I help first time homebuyers, single folks carving their place in Seattle, relocators moving to and fro, helping parents sell the family home and witnessing the big moments in people’s lives. I am proud to say that this is where it brought me today, 2024’s #1 ranking Real Estate Agent in West Seattle. The colleagues on this list are friends, people I respect and they work hard for their friends and clients. I’m lucky to be on this list alongside them.

I joined Compass because they have the infrastructure and support to elevate client services, the industry, and my own career growth which will help others grow as well. I’m ready to mentor and teach, build a community, and have more resources to serve my friends and clients. So, I hit the books, took the exam and earned my Managing Brokers License (A “Super Broker”, I’d like to call it).

Becoming a Managing Real Estate Broker at Compass Washington benefits clients in several key ways, enhancing their experience and ensuring a smoother, more informed transaction. Here’s how:

1. Higher Level of Expertise and Knowledge

A Managing Broker has met more rigorous licensing requirements, undergone extensive training, and accumulated valuable experience. This means clients receive guidance from someone with deep industry insights, stronger negotiation skills, and the ability to navigate complex transactions with confidence.

2. Stronger Leadership and Oversight

Managing brokers oversee and mentor agents, ensuring they adhere to ethical practices, legal requirements, and the highest industry standards. For clients, this translates to a more professional and accountable real estate experience, where they can trust that their agent is backed by strong leadership.

3. Better Problem-Solving in Complex Transactions

Real estate deals can be unpredictable, with unexpected challenges such as legal issues, financing hiccups, or multiple-offer situations. A managing broker’s advanced training equips them to handle these complications efficiently, reducing stress for clients and ensuring a successful closing.

4. Access to Innovative Tools and Market Insights

At Compass Washington, managing brokers have access to top-tier technology, data analytics, and marketing platforms, which they use to optimize pricing strategies and exposure for listings. Clients benefit from cutting-edge real estate tools that provide better market insights, leading to more informed buying and selling decisions.

5. Enhanced Negotiation and Advocacy

Because managing brokers have extensive experience in negotiations, they can secure better deals for their clients, whether it’s getting top dollar for a seller or the best possible terms for a buyer. Their ability to anticipate market shifts and advocate for clients ensures a competitive advantage.

6. Stronger Industry Connections

Managing brokers have established networks with lenders, inspectors, attorneys, and other professionals essential to a smooth real estate transaction. Clients benefit from these trusted connections, ensuring that every aspect of their home-buying or selling process is handled by reputable professionals.

7. More Personalized and Efficient Service

With years of experience leading teams and training agents, managing brokers understand how to tailor strategies to individual client needs. Whether a client is a first-time homebuyer, a luxury investor, or relocating, a managing broker brings a personalized approach that aligns with their goals.
