Testimonials

Jonathan Manning and Brook Lameo

“In real estate, we’ve found that having a trustworthy and honest realtor makes all the difference. Someone you can trust to get the job done right, minimize the work you have to do, and be honest with you about price and procedures. Kelly Malloy is that realtor in Seattle. After re-listing with Kelly, she took over the staging, the listing, the marketing, the showings, and all the little details that made our house sell. We highly recommend Kelly to take the worries of real estate off your shoulders.”

Mitch Shepard

“Kelly was our agent recently when we sold our rental house in West Seattle. She was fabulous at balancing her professional recommendations with our preferences–and helping us understand all of the options & the market. She successfully led a smooth & successful sale at the price we wanted! She managed multiple contractors, inspectors, yard crews, and worked around our anxious and difficult tenant, to do showings . Kelly is very good at what she does and fun to work with! Even in the most stressful moments she somehow made us laugh and found a way around every obstacle. I highly recommend Kelly!”

Alana Holmquist

“We’ve worked with Kelly on numerous properties. She always come through for us with anything we have needed throughout the sale process. Kelly coordinated our movers when we were out of town as well as provided hands on help with getting our home show ready. Thanks to her hard work and diligence she was able to secure multiple offers for our home sale. We would recommend Kelly to anyone we know! She is the best!

Freya Johnson

“Kelly is a too amazing for words. She is a tireless and fierce advocate for her clients. She knows her stuff and is unafraid to share her opinion and advice. So much more than a realtor, I called her in tears more than once and she not only offered me support but offered me her couch when my lease was up and the closing on my purchase had been delayed.
She stuck with me through a 6 month ordeal to purchase a new construction townhouse during a pandemic, which was continuously delayed. In the end I got it for asking price with all closing costs paid + some additional funds to buy down interest rate points. I couldn’t be happier and I can’t imagine a better realtor/advocate/therapist.”

Ryan Bennett

“We are never going to be able to thank Kelly enough for all the help and energy she invested on selling our home. We loved working with her and couldn’t recommend her enough to anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the Seattle area.
She made it a breeze to deal with the remote sell of our home in West Seattle. We moved out of state before our house went on the market and she coordinated painters, roofers, landscapers, and stagers for us. We’re going to miss our texts, calls and FaceTimes with her!!We hope to see her next time we’re visiting Seattle.”

Chad Tackett

“You know I could not say enough about how great Kelly was for us. My wife and I had specific goals and timelines about selling our condo and Kelly helped us to get there. Kelly has her finger on the pulse of the market in West Seattle so she was able to let us know what we needed do to get our place ready to go and she even put in some leg work herself! After we did list the online presentation of our condo was extremely good, best in the area in my opinion. We where very happy with the results. After we had a buyer Kelly we very fast and responsive with the negotiation bringing in trade experts to advise and again put in the legwork to get everything resolved quickly.My only complaint was that I could not use her services in Spokane to purchase our new home.”

Kristen Lundstrom

“Kelly really made things happen for me! When it came time to put an offer in on my dream cottage. she walked me through every step. She is knowledgeable, dedicated, and determined, but also very tuned in to what your particular needs are and realistic about what to expect in a real estate transaction. Kelly is also very well connected in the community, a skill that kicked in like a superpower when putting my offer in. I can’t thank her enough.”

Brandon Geary

“Kelly helped us buy our house in September, 2020 and also assisted with our sale and purchase in 2012. She has a top-notch network, really knows Seattle, particularly the West side, and has mastered the art of active listening, so she knows how to connect the right buyers to the right sellers and vice versa. Most importantly, Kelly brings her whole self to the job and really works to build authentic relationships that result in a fantastic customer experience. 10 stars!”

John and Melinda

“Kelly was engaged, positive, and proactive every step of the way. She believed we could sell our house even during the early days of the stay-at-home order and the closure of the West Seattle bridge. She was always willing to let us make the final decision about things but she was a wise and calming advisor.”

Josh and Susanna

“We’ve worked with Kelly over the years as both sellers and buyers. Kelly truly has our best interest in mind. She is knowledgable, calm, creative, accessible and really enjoys her work and it shows. She’s trustworthy and kind. We would recommend Kelly 100%!”

Annie Rivera

“Kelly helped us buy our first home in 2015 and later sell it in May of 2020. She is extremely knowledgeable about the Seattle real estate market and has wonderful, tenured relationships throughout the industry. Kelly helped us navigate selling our home during a very difficult time with the pandemic happening and the news of the West Seattle Bridge closure. Despite these less than ideal circumstances and all of the ambiguity around the West Seattle market, Kelly got us an asking price offer in just a day! She is so wonderful to work with that I genuinely miss talking to her everyday during the buying and selling process.”

Sara and Andrew

“Kelly was absolutely wonderful to work with as my husband I bought our first home together. We were moving to a new neighborhood and her knowledge of the area was very helpful! When we found a house we liked, she really went to bat for us and helped us through the process with lots of suggestions and encouragement.”

Meg

“Kelly knows all! I was a first time homebuyer and wanted someone who knew the area where I wanted to buy who would advocate for me like crazy. She’s been in West Seattle and has so many connections. Anytime you ask her for recommendations for anything she says, “Oh I have a guy for that.” Or, “so-and-so can help you, here’s their number, do you want me to call them?” My connection with Kelly has changed the way I live my life…honestly! She helped me find a home organizer who has changed how I run my home and Kelly made me feel like things that seem impossible are totally obtainable. She also made me feel like a good friend. From taking me out for a bloody mary after my cat died to closing on the sale of one home AND the purchase of another on the SAME DAY and on-time, Kelly was there for me and so patient. I can’t say enough good things about Kelly and should the need arise I will use her again in a heartbeat.”

Charlene and Jesse

“Preparing our house for the market was daunting, but Kelly was there for us every step of the way with the knowledge and resources to make it happen. She was cheerful and supportive in every task. We will pass her name along to friends looking for a superb real estate experience.”

Shannon and Joe

“Kelly knows every nook and cranny of West Seattle. She tirelessly showed us homes and helped us put in a last minute offer. She fostered a relationship with the other real estate agent that made things smooth and easy. She knows her stuff, she knows the market and she is willing to go above and beyond to help her clients get what they want!”

Julie and TJ

“Kelly was a dream to work with. She managed the process, the contractors, and our emotions the entire time. She was always there when we needed help and was a great communicator. In the end, the teamwork paid off! Kelly sold our house in 24 hours with multiple offers in October!!”

Andrew and Kacey

“Kelly made the entire process of buying a home a delight by guiding us tactfully through each step along the way. It was fun looking at homes and dreaming about what to do in a new house. But where Kelly made a huge difference was between the offer and closing. She handled every situation with skill and grace, always providing options and expertly navigating buyer/seller relations. Can confirm, Kelly rocks!”

Kathy Wimer

“Kelly helped us sell our house in West Seattle at the peak of COVID and with the West Seattle bridge “broken”. I cannot say enough about what a wonderful experience it was working with her. She became my confidante, therapist, task master and, even once, my chauffeur (when my car broke down). She rolled her sleeves up multiple times to make sure things got done– not your typical “high-heels, perfectly coiffed” stereotype. We had lived in the house for almost 22 years and our 20 year old was “heart-broken” about us selling. But Kelly involved her in the process and made her feel validated and eased the process. Would recommend her to anyone!!”

Peter Ubaldi and Kelly Ubaldi

“Kelly was a pleasure to work with since she knows this market, the type of buyers who will be looking and what we needed to get our house ready for this market. She did an exceptional job bringing in her designers, contractors, and stagers to get our house ready. She made sure to keep things in budget and to maximize our investment when we sell. She was able to have our house have multiple offers in four days, and we did have a return on our investment. Kelly is super knowledgeable, personal and savvy. She’s with you the whole step of the way and shows determination in getting things done. She puts a whole new meaning to what a realtor does for their clients. You’re amazing Kelly! Thank you”

Stephanie Holstein

“Kelly was responsive and committed to helping us sell and buy from the first moment we contacted her. She gave us great advice throughout the process, and with her help we were able to sell our house for much more than expected and buy a new house faster than expected. She is an incredible agent!”

Paul Larson

“Kelly was terrific to work with on our home purchase. Highly communicative and savvy about the market and making an offer on our desired property. She is timely with appointments and works well with her assistant Emily. Kelly is high energy but listens carefully, thoughtfully, and patiently. I highly recommend Kelly as your agent! Woo Hoo!

Marianne

Dear Kelly! I wanted to thank you you excellent communication throughout this process. Even though my client didn’t get your listing, it was just an absolute pleasure working with you this far. You have done a wonderful job presenting this home (which the 9 offers in this slowing market just proved), it is staged and prepared most wonderfully. I super appreciate your availability to answer our questions in every hour of the day or night and your upbeat and pleasant attitude made all the difference. I do hope our paths will cross again soon when we can work on a transaction together, I know I would like it very much. Wishing you all the best! 

Elana Byrne

I contacted Kelly on May 21, 2020 and she had my house touched up, staged, sold (over asking price) and closed by July 3. Concurrently she found my new home with all my must-haves. Amazing! Kelly has excellent relationships with the many businesses and people needed to sell and/or buy a house. She coordinated everyone so that we were not inconvenienced, no small feat especially during Covid time. She worked tirelessly for me and my family, always with a smile (and a latte if needed). I will definitely employ her again.
