“Samantha was not just our realtor, she was a true partner in our home buying adventure. From the very beginning, she made us feel confident and comfortable. As first time home buyers, we leaned on Samantha to guide us through this process and to be a sounding board as we navigated through all the ups and downs. And things were definitely not easy given that midway through our house search the pandemic hit and shortly thereafter we had our first child. Through all of that craziness, Samantha was the steady rock for us. She kept us on course while also being flexible as our needs and the broader environment changed rapidly.

Samantha’s attention to detail was also absolutely key to keeping us organized and allowed us to make the best offers possible. She would go out of her way to research listings and then make sure we put together a strategic and thoughtful offer. This gave us enormous peace of mind. We knew Samantha was always on top of it and all of that organization and research was something we could confidently take off our plate. Every time we made an offer, that organization made it possible for us to submit strong offers extremely quickly. We were always set up for success because the other brokers greatly respected Samantha’s professionalism and efficiency.

On top of all that, Samantha’s thoughtfulness and caring is what will bring us back to her again and again. When we bought our house, it had beautiful string lights outside on the patio. Sadly, the prior owners took the lights with them. When we moved in, we got a surprise box waiting for us at the door. Samantha had bought us a whole new set of string lights as a housewarming gift. It’s a small gesture, but shows how much Samantha cares about her clients and how much she pays attention to the little things.

We strongly recommend Samantha to be your next home buying partner. The peace of mind and confidence you will gain by having her by your side will be invaluable.”

“We used Samantha Burnstead to sell and buy our new home.

Samantha is professional and accessible no matter the time of day. She is organized and quick to answer every question, large or small, in the home buying and selling process. This was especially key for us as we tried to navigate through the historic market we are currently in. Samantha was with us every step of the way and helped to guide us through it all. During the process to find our next home, Samantha’s knowledge of the market was vital. She took the time to listen to our needs and knew exactly what type of property we were looking for. She understood our lifestyle and needs with a growing family. We cannot give her enough praise for standing with us every day. Her advice was always spot on and remained positive, even though it took over a year to find that next home.

The biggest attribute to Samantha as an agent is her attention to detail when listing our home and knowing what a potential new buyer in the market is looking for. Everything from staging to getting the perfect angle during listing photos. We were blown away with how our house looked on listing day. We had more showings than I ever expected and an offer within hours. We highly recommend Samantha to anyone looking for an agent.”

“Our experience with Samantha was above and beyond our expectations.  She was attentive to our concerns, provided expert strategic advice, and helped us navigate numerous hurdles in both selling our old home in Kirkland and purchasing our new home in Bellevue, which was particularly impressive given the circumstances that arose during the height of COVID lockdowns. Samantha was extremely receptive to our wishes and kept us looped in to every facet of the process, making a normally stressful process feel seamless.”

“We’ve had the pleasure of working with Samatha Burnstead on two real estate transactions; the purchase and sale of our home.  Both processes were seamless and efficient.  Samantha understands the real estate market.  She knows how to effectively price the property to get the deal done in a timely fashion.  During the real estate transaction, she is proactive and prepares her clients for the next step.  She is transparent and forthcoming with information to keep you informed.  Samantha uses technology to your benefit.  Her response time and communication are excellent which helps you make difficult decisions quickly.  

We strongly recommend Samatha Burnstead to represent you in your next real estate transaction.  She keeps your best interest in her heart and mind.”

“My husband Steve and I had the pleasure of working withe Samantha to purchase our new home.. As first time buyers in a very competitive market, we were nervous we’d be small fish in a very big pond. With Samantha on our team, we were able to find and purchase a home that checked all of our boxes — and them some. Samantha patiently educated us through the entire home buying process, fielding any and all questions we threw her way. When we found our dream home, Samantha pulled together a smart and strategic offer in less than an hour that ultimately won us the home. During closing, a few challenges came up that could have resulted in delayed closing, but thanks to her creative problem solving, the deal closed on time and we were able to move in as planned. Working with Samantha was a pleasure. We would confidently recommend her to anyone considering purchasing a home.”

“I cannot recommend highly enough Samantha Burnstead for your real estate needs. We had the opportunity to work with her both when buying and selling our Everett home. In both circumstances she was able to get us to a price point we were very happy with and made the process stress free. We sold our home after already having moved out of state, but Samantha made this process seamless, always offering to go above and beyond our expectations. She is respectful of her client’s wishes but also provides sound advice which helped direct us particularly in the sell of our home. She is patient and I never felt rushed into a decision. After having considered selling our home by owner, we are so grateful to have decided to move forward with Samantha and to have heeded her advice. She is a gem in the industry.”

“What made our home selling process most enjoyable, is the fact that Samantha was literally able to secure an excellent off-market offer within 24 hours of contacting her — at price far more than we expected.  I would also like to add that it wasn't just the selling price she helped us with.  She told us what needed to be done to facilitate the sale, and just as importantly, she informed us that we did not need to spend thousands, and thousands of unnecessary dollars (as we had been told in the past).  This allowed us to immediately purchase another home in an area where home prices were going up even faster than Snohomish County.  With her assistance, she made a difficult process run smoothly.”

“I've worked with Samantha on different sides of two real estate transactions (the first when she represented the seller from whom I purchased a home) and the second where she represented me as a seller after I saw what a rock star she was! Samantha has the expertise to make an inherently high-stress experience into a manageable one. Her people skills are remarkable.”
