Thank you to my wonderful clients!
1. Bob A. & Lynne C.: Lynnwood townhouse
When Lynne accepted a new position in the Seattle area we were faced with a quick re-location to an unfamiliar area. We were both overwhelmed with new jobs and needing to expediously purchase a home with little spare time.
Sherry was recommended by a business associate and the recommendation saved us time, money and stress. She made a prudent assessment of our needs and quickly guided us into a townhouse. After the purchase Sherry assisted with turning the house into our home. More than a Realtor she is an Wise Angel. We could on and on but time is still precious.
Bob & Lynne
2. Anika A.: Snohomish condo
Dear RE/MAX Eastside Brokers & Potential Home Buyers, As a first time homebuyer who has recently closed on a beautiful condo in Sammamish, Washington, I would like to take the time to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for Sherry Sahlstrom. I believe it was pure fate that Sherry came into my life, took me under her wing and guided me through the process of buying a home. I remember receiving a call from Sherry, where she made herself available for questions and assistance, as well as invited me to be her guest at a seminar for “first time homebuyers”. At that time, I was very much overwhelmed, scared and unsure about the prospect of buying a home all by myself, even though I was prepared and ready to take that step in my life.
After a very informative and thorough seminar at the Bellevue Library, given by Sherry and a representative from Countrywide Home Loans, I felt I had an excellent reference and starting point of how to begin with finding and purchasing a home.
It was obvious to me after the seminar, that with Sherry’s veteran experience in Real Estate, and her calming, professional demeanor, that I was in excellent hands, and could begin the process of finding and buying my first home.
Sherry Sahlstrom from start (literally) to finish was not just my realtor; she was my friend, my guide, my knowledge, and my trust. Sherry truly helped me to think outside the box, stretching my boundaries to its fullest potential in order to see what would be beneficial to me not only as a homeowner, but also as an investor. From researching, to looking at condo units, Sherry helped me to make the most informed and thought out purchase. She was with me every step of the way, accompanying me during the offer, walk-through, inspection, and even at the signing of my loan documents. Her presence alone always made me feel comfortable and at ease with my decision and purchase. She was always a phone call away if I needed her, and kept in constant contact with me to not only inform and update me of the process along the way. She checked up on me, helping me through the anxiety and hesitation I felt at the time. She offered her genuine support, advice, and even her personal triumphs and tribulations of her own purchases throughout the years.
Honestly, looking back on this experience I believe I couldn’t have handpicked a more confident, experienced and professional realtor. As a single woman in her mid twenties, I would not have survived buying a home all by myself without Sherry Sahlstrom by my side. I always felt like her number one priority, and I knew she had my best interest at heart. I feel truly blessed to have met and worked with Sherry and trust me, if you are looking to buy your first or your fifth home, you’ll want Sherry Sahlstrom representing you and your needs.
Sincerely, Anika 3. Bob & Patty B.: Bellevue home sale, Renton new construction purchase Wow! What an honor! Congratulations!
Back in 2003, our growing family went house shopping. We met Sherry Sahlstrom at an open house she was representing. At the time, our toddler and preschooler were snacking on cookies that they brought in. Soon enough, they were sitting on a couch sharing with Sherry, while we talked about our possibilities of buying a new home.
About a year later, we were ready to sell our home in order to buy a brand new house in a great new location. We kept Sherry’s information because she was only agent who did not pressure us while we shopped around. Sherry prepared our old house by telling us what we needed to do to get it ready for the market. When our old house went on the market, it looked amazing. Sherry staged the house in such a way that it looked so inviting. In less than a week, we sold our old house, and were able to put a down payment on our new house. Sherry handled both the selling and buying for us.
As you can see, Sherry is “kid” friendly, a great listener, and patient. Also, Sherry is very talented in the real estate business. Since then Sherry treats us like a member of her own family. We’ve gotten together with Sherry and her family at picnics and other special event she threw for her clients to say “Thank you for your business”. In the near future we hope to use Sherry’s talents again. When anyone we know of is looking for a real estate agent; immediately, we mention Sherry Sahlstrom with RE/MAX Eastside Brokers, Inc.
4. Anshu & Neeru C.: Bellevue condo sale, Renton new construction purchase Congrats! It’s definitely a well-deserved award.
“Sherry was amazing to work with. We bought and sold a home with her, and despite the tough market, Sherry stayed engaged with both sales, and we were very happy with the results. Overall we’d recommend her to all of our friends that are looking to buy or sell a home”
5. Gary & Emi C.: Bothell single family home sale
Sherry, Congratulations on your award for being one of the top agents! I would have to say I agree with it because you certainly were a good agent for us. We had a very difficult house to sell location-wise and the timing, both economically and seasonally, were bad. Yet somehow, you pulled it off and we are very grateful that you were able to do so.
Thank you again.
6. Paul & Leslie D.: Redmond townhome purchase
Sherry Sahlstrom was the listing agent on the first condo we purchased. We were so impressed with her knowledge and professionalism that we asked her to act as buyer’s agent on our second condo purchase several months later. Now that we are preparing to sell, we have once again entrusted Sherry Sahlstrom to represent us. Sherry brings more to the table than in-depth condominium expertise and terrific negotiating skills - she’s positive, upbeat, and fun to work with.
7. Tom D.: Sammamish home purchase
Happy to help, you have certainly helped me a lot lately, congrats again. Sherry helped me buy my home in Sammamish, she is very professional and has a real attention to detail. I have also worked with Sherry to evaluate investment properties as well as rental homes. She is a true asset as a real estate agent, she knows the market, understands staging and valuations. Additionally, I recommended Sherry to colleagues at my office and they were equally impressed with her work. I would highly recommend her for any residential real estate purchase or sale. 8. Eckhard & Lisa E.: Mercer Island single family home Many Congratulations on the award!!!
Sherry Sahlstrom was very instrumental in my family securing a lovely home on Mercer Island. Moving from out of state is always stressful, especially when you have never spent any time in the location you’re being transferred to. Sherry has had years of experience as an agent and knew the areas we were considering intimately which was extremely helpful to us when narrowing down our search. Sherry asked us all the right questions about what we were looking for, sent us lots of options to review, drove us around to view selected homes and after a couple visits to the Seattle area we found the perfect home for our family! Sherry worked with the other agent to make a smooth deal and we all ended up very happy. We would recommend Sherry to anyone moving out of state or within the local area; she truly wants to find the right home for you!
Best, Lisa and Eckhard
9. Ben G.: Seattle’s Belltown condo purchase
My name is Ben and working for a large software company, I have extremely limited time available outside of work; so, when I decided to buy a condo, I wanted to ensure that I was selecting a realtor who had lot of biz experience and who could drive most of the search and purchase process by herself.
A year after the purchase of my condo, I can tell you that I couldn’t have made a better choice on the realtor:
· The search was fast: Sherry understood my needs and would only pre-select places that really matched my requirements. · The inspection was well monitored: Sherry warned me on all the potential pitfalls to look for. · The purchase process was very smooth: Sherry managed all discussions with the seller and gave me great tips for discussions with mortgage companies as well as with escrow.
Overall, Sherry was very professional which helped this purchase to be fast and smooth…. In one word, I am delighted with expertise she provides.
10. Brynjar H.: Lynnwood single family home sale I’m very excited for you on your Top Agent Award. Congratulations
When I was preparing to sell my house in Lynnwood I had talked to few realtors asking for ideas on what to do to the house to make it look presentable. I quickly realized that the realtor that had the best ideas and was willing and excited to sell my house was Sherry Sahlstrom with RE/MAX.
She gave me great ideas and not only that but was there side by side with us preparing the house for sale. Due to her professionalism the house sold quickly and for the price we expected, even though the market was beginning to show signs of diminishing. I recommend Sherry at any time, to any one, because she proved herself to be hard worker, honest, reliable and an outstanding realtor.
11. Songyu H. & Wenhua L.: Single family home purchase in Klahanie We are very pleased to provide this letter of recommendation of behalf of Sherry Sahlstrom, a talented individual we have know through the purchase of our house in the Seattle area in June 2006.
Sherry was referred to us as our agent. Throughout our property purchase process, she provided valuable professional input to our decision making, worked very hard to represent our interest, and was very responsive to our questions. Since we moved to the area from another state, we really appreciated that she gave us a thorough tour of the area we were moving to, and worked with our schedule. She helped us as we survived several crises, since we were selling a home at the same time, and things weren’t happening as we had hoped. Due to our moving schedule, we arrived at our new house on a Friday at 11pm. Sherry was right there waiting to hand the house keys to us. We will never forget that moment.
We believe Sherry to be an individual of superior intellect. Sherry has revealed a thorough understanding and a deep insight into all areas associated with a successful real estate transaction. She has been keeping us informed about the real estate market, even after we closed our house purchase. We had a great experience working with her and we would recommend her to any of our friends with real estate transaction needs in the Seattle area.
Very truly yours, Songyu & Wenhua
12. Tor Gunnar & Anabel H.: Edmonds single family home buyer Congratulations!!!
Although I must say I am not the least surprised. You deserve it. I am honored to write a recommendation.
Sherry Sahlstrom’s professionalism is outstanding. Her knowledge and expertise sets her apart from other agents we have previously worked with. She has a Zen quality to her approach; she works extremely hard but you never see her sweat. Sherry is everything you ever want in an agent: Professional but not distant, flexible, has a keen eye for possibilities, and most importantly she is honest. This made the otherwise daunting process less stressful and we found our beautiful home within a few weeks from our starting point”.
13. Jeff Johnson, Broker, MegaStar Mortgage: Congratulations!
As a Mortgage industry veteran when I had to sell my home I selected Sherry Sahlstrom, because of the hundreds of agents I have worked with in the past she is the very best listing agent I have ever worked with. She put forth a huge amount of effort to ensure my property was ready for sale. She brought in a contractor to do a few minor touch ups and even helped me select carpet and paint. That is why I continue to recommend her to my friends and clients.”
14. Ned J./Dawn M.: Condo sale in Seattle’s Belltown
Hi Sherry….first off, I wanted to thank you for selling my condo. I’m happy Dawn recommended you. It was a pleasure working with you! You now have another satisfied customer that will recommend you as well.
15. Sree K.: Redmond townhome purchase
I used the services of Sherry Sahlstrom to buy my house recently. Wonderful real estate agent, saved me a ton of time and money.
16. Jennifer K.: Issaquah townhome purchase That is so cool! Congratulations!! I would love to give you a recommendation!
“I met Sherry when she was teaching a first-time homebuyers’ seminar. She had great tips and shared a wealth of information about the whole process. Naturally, I called her up to show me some homes when I was ready to buy, and she made an otherwise daunting task fun and easy! She was patient while she drove me to different homes in different neighborhoods and carefully discerned what I really wanted after seeing a few places.
Throughout the actual purchasing process, Sherry walked every step with me, explaining documents, procedures, timelines, everything! The whole process was very smooth and I ended up with a home that I love! I would not hesitate to recommend Sherry for your real estate needs and will certainly call her again in the future!”
17. Chuck & Ann L.: Redmond townhome sale and Edmonds single family home purchase
Sherry Sahlstrom was our agent for selling a condo in the 6001 complex, in Redmond, WA. Nothing had been selling in 6001 from many, many months and the offer prices were down around $135-140,000. Sherry came out and took excellent pictures of the surrounding area of the condo and the inside layout, making sure our unit was depicted at its full potential. After doing much research we agreed to list our condo at $249,000. By the end of the day we listed we had 5 offers from $249,995 to $275,000. Sherry sat down with us and we analyzed the offers and we were encouraged to take an offer at $269,000 that offered 20% down. Sherry then had to get it past the loan people as no unit in 6001 had sold for that amount and she did.
It didn’t end there: we then needed a home in the Edmonds area. The perfect home was found and after a great number of serious issues were found and corrected by the seller we purchased the home. We had no double payments and we secured an excellent loan rate, with Sherry’s help.
Thank you Sherry!
18. Jeff & Roslynn M.: Sammamish single family home purchase
When we moved to Seattle we were not sure about all the different neighborhoods and schools. Sherry helped us navigate neighborhoods based on our commute and needs. Our kids love our neighborhood and their school. Sherry found a great house for us at a great price. She is a great realtor and we will use her again someday.
19. Mollie McD.: Newcastle condo purchase
This was all so easy (for me at least!). It’s been great getting to know you and working with you. The gift is just a small token of my appreciation for your dedication and extra effort. I know it’s your job, but consider it a tip for extra good service! I’ll give you the best present of all-great word of mouth! Let’s stay in touch, and I look forward to working with you again.
Mollie
20. Kathie McL.: Brier single family home purchase Congrats!
I had been looking for the right house for some time; I drove by one that looked like it might be “the one”, and called Sherry right away. She got out of line at the “lube place” and was with me within the half hour. We viewed the home and I made an offer before we left.
Sherry is so knowledgeable; she eased the closing right through and I had the keys within two weeks. I have another home I will be selling soon and I plan on calling Sherry to be the agent. I would recommend her to anyone interested in buying or selling a home!
21. Eric M.: Seattle condo purchase Thanks Sherry! I want to offer my congratulations to Sherry Sahlstrom on receiving her award as one of the top Real Estate Agents in the region. I can’t think of a better person to receive this honor. In my personal experience, Sherry offered the highest quality service in my search for a home in Seattle. Not only was the search efficient, Sherry made it fun and interesting.
From my first time homebuyer’s class to the closing on my property, Sherry was there to help me every step along the way. We spent our time pre-reviewing properties that met my criteria and, when visiting targeted candidate properties, were able to identify just the right home for me without a lot of wasted effort. I love my new home and couldn’t have done it without her.
22. Christine & John M.: Sale of their Redmond townhouse
My husband and I would like to recommend Sherry Sahlstrom as a wonderful real estate agent. She is totally professional, knowledgeable and reliable. We had total trust in her advice and she went the “extra mile” in staging our home, keeping us informed when we moved out of state, and helping us to attain a successful sale even during this “real estate downturn” time. We are really grateful to Sherry and feel very lucky to have had such a great experience!
23. Laura N.: Sale of her Redmond condo
Sherry is a pleasure to work with. She advised me about how to ready my condo that had been sitting unsold for about 3-months and her staging service helped the condo sell in 30-days once she took over the listing. I would highly recommend Sherry, and will utilize her services again.
24. John & Katie O.: Seattle’s U District single family home purchase
Congratulations on a well-deserved honor! Most importantly, we want to convey just how competent and devoted you really are.
Sherry did an extraordinary job of helping my daughter Mira select and close on her new home in Seattle. Sherry was patiently involved with many showings, offers, counter-offers and inspections before finally closing on the right property. My wife Katie is a realtor in Colorado and was very impressed with Sherry’s knowledge and commitment to her profession.”
John O. Durango, Colorado
25. Austin O.: Issaquah Highlands townhouse Absolutely, it would be a pleasure.
Thanks a lot Sherry, you’re simply the best :-)
26. Ryan & Nina P.: Renton townhouse
Sherry- Thank you so much! You are an angel. I loved working with you. You made everything easier. I look forward to working with you again in the future! Nina
Thank you for everything. You did a great job with our transaction and made this process easier than I ever imagined. Ryan
27. Bobbie R.: Kirkland condo Here you go Sherry!
Working with Sherry is simply delightful! She tells you what you want to know before you can think of the question to ask! I don’t plan to move again, but if I should ever need a realtor it would only be Sherry Sahlstrom!
28. Gary & Pat R.: Estate Sale, Bellevue single family home
Sherry was simply fantastic. She brought in contractors for painting and cleaning, coordinating the estate sale and more. The property sold quickly. I would employ her services again in an instant and would be delighted to sing her praises to anyone who will listen.
29. Raj & Neeru S.: Klahanie single family home purchase Congratulations on your newest achievement.
You very well deserve it! We had a great experience working with you. You are well informed as an agent and worked with us to help us find the right home that suited our needs at that time. We love our home and the community we live in. Thank you!
30. Marc Savereux with First American Title & Escrow: Absolutely!!!! I could write a page about how amazing I think you are...
From a professional perspective I have come to know Sherry’s exemplary work ethic not unlike a great “Symphony Conductor”. She harmonizes the many interested parties in the transaction in perfect unison allowing her clients the peace of mind that their interests are paramount….seated row one, Orchestra. From a personal perspective I have come to call Sherry my friend….her humor, integrity and creativity is infectious. Sherry’s recognition is well deserved and I am proud to recommend her to those in need of a Realtor.
31. Maureen S: Newcastle single family home purchase Congratulations on your award! I am super happy for you. J
As a first time home buyer, I was very nervous about the home buying process. Working with Sherry was fantastic because she helped me through the whole process, from learning about short sales, to what to look for in a good house. She helped me find the house of my dreams.
32. Bruce & Deborrah S.: Lynnwood condo purchase
I just want to let anyone know who is in the market to buy a home about Sherry Sahlstrom. From the moment my wife and I met her as we were looking to buy a home 2 years ago, she has gone far above and beyond in doing everything thing she could to not only find us a home that we could be comfortable in and was a good value, she spent time educating us on the market and researching things for us that were definitely not in her job description. She steered us away from potentially bad investments more than once and we will use her services again when we are in the market for another home in the future.
Respectfully, Bruce and Deborrah S
33. Chris & Linda S.: North Bend single family home purchase Congratulations! Please take pictures at this ceremony and enjoy! To say you deserve it understates how generous you are with your thoughts, time and heart.
I felt that our interaction was never limited to just a “business transaction”. Your approach was very holistic. You took the time to understand our wants, needs and desires and delivered with class, professionalism and personal care. After five years, I still feel like I have an “Aunt” in the real estate business and will call on my “Aunt” the next time I change my location.
34. Jerry T.: Redmond townhome sale Congrats Sherry!!!!.
I am a retired land developer and home builder in the greater Seattle area for the past 29 years. I have known and worked with countless Real estate agents throughout my carrier and I have to say that Sherry is absolutely on the most professional, knowledgeable and very well spoken Realtors that I have ever worked with! She is truly does represent the best interests of her clients in every transaction and it is a pleasure to recommend her to my friends, family and associates.
Jerry
35. Farren West, home inspector, Key Inspection Services: Congrats Sherry :-) My pleasure. And all true. You have been a great referral source and a good friend. Thanks for your continued support and guidance. Making the magic happen...way to go!!!
As a home inspector for the last seven years in WA state I have worked with probably a 1000+ different real estate professionals. Sherry is definitely in the upper 1% of the realtors I have worked with. She takes great time and energy to ensure her clients are well versed in all aspects of the real estate transactions.
Sherry’s technical skills in working with investors allow her to see real estate from a different point of view. Her keen insight aids in guiding buyers to understand you are buying both a home for your family and making a wise investment for your future. Having been the President of the local staging organization gives Sherry a studied expertise in presenting a sellers home in the best light for the quickest sell. And last Sherry is a joy to work with…bringing a smile and low pressure sales expertise to the home buying & selling process.
Congrats to you Sherry.
36. Greg & Rebecca W.: Bothell single family home purchase Congratulations! We would be delighted to write a few words.
Sherry Sahlstrom was extremely helpful to us when we were purchasing our new home. We were first time homebuyers and Sherry led us step by step through the process. She made it very easy. Sherry also provided numerous referrals from her professional network at our request; each of whom provided us with the same great customer service. Sherry can provide everything that a homebuyer would need.
We recommended a friend to her who continues to thank us for such a great referral. She also has helped us with information and resources for things that we have needed since we bought our home. Overall she was extremely friendly and professional and made us feel as if we were her only clients (although we knew it was far from the truth)...... and anyone who is respectful to my kids will get my business and my referrals any day.”
37. Bill Z.: Seattle townhome purchase
Just so you know...You are the BEST agent anyone could ask for!!! I appreciate all your hard work.
Thanks! Bill
