Agent Details

Meet James

Real Estate Broker

Hi, I'm Jamie! I've been a real estate broker for 9 years, and I absolutely love my job. I currently live in Renton Washington, and I serve the whole greater Seattle area. I focus on areas within an hours drive of Seattle, but have closed properties as far south as Lakewood and as far north as Sedro Wooley! I go where my clients take me.

I was born in Seattle and grew up on San Juan Island. I attended college at the University of Redlands in California, and spent several years working overseas in China. The Seattle area is my home though, and despite my love of traveling this is still my favorite place in the world. We have so much to offer here, and I love helping people find the home of their dreams.

What makes me different? I work really hard. I'm not the tv show real estate agent who misleads or outright lies to make the sale, which is unfortunately common in this industry. I won't hesitate to tell a client to walk away from a home that has problems. I have acquired a lot of area knowledge over the years, and if I don't have the answer to something, I know someone who will.

If you need an inspector, builder, lender, or any other related professional, I know good people who will work hard and get the job done. Buying or selling a home is a complex and challenging process. I've seen all the ups and downs over the years, and I make it as easy as possible for my clients.
