"For a few months before the seminar, we did go back and forth about buying a house for a bunch of reasons. I think the main reason though, was really a lack of knowledge. Thinking about buying a house for the first time is pretty nerve-wracking. Even going into the seminar, I was pretty sure we still wouldn’t want to buy a house. HOWEVER, as soon as we left, we were SO excited! I think we wanted to start looking at houses that day. I don’t think we would have bought, if we hadn’t gone to that seminar. Not only was it super informative, but Ashley and Suzy are like the dream team-Genuine, experienced, confident, smart and funny."

"Words cannot explain how lucky our family was to have found Ashley Dolan. Not only was she knowledgeable, pro-active, reachable , and kind, they both have awesome personalities. Not once did we feel pressured by her to put in an offer or asked to change our wants or needs. From the beginning she had a solid plan and helped us feel comfortable with the process, even with being first time home buyers. She is very knowledgable with how the real estate market is doing, and has an extensive understanding of what makes a home solidly sound (good foundation, roofing, plumbing, etc.). The first day we met with Ashley and told her we were looking at buying a home and we gave her our price range. That same afternoon she sent us over 200 home listings for us to look at. Ashley took us to many homes all over the Seattle Area (from Green Lake, West Seattle, SeaTac, Burien, etc). Whenever we wanted to go look at some homes she would either go out with us that same day or the next to check them out. She does a great job of answering all your questions, and has quick responses. There were many red flags on homes that that my wife and I did not notice, that Ashley was quick to point out to us. I love that she was more concerned about getting us a good solid home than making an easy sell. Ashley has experience with working with active military and military veterans, and a lot of experience in dealing with the extensive VA loan process. If you are looking at purchasing or selling a home, we recommend you go with Ashley. You will not be disappointed. She is like the Wonder Woman of real estate."
