Testimonials


Dave came highly recommended and I must say I have been extremely pleased with all aspects of my home sale. From the initial consult to days after the close, Dave was knowledgable, thorough, insightful and an excellent communicator. The prep included a recommended pre-inspection in which I addressed every repair concern listed as the house went on the market. It was a real pleasure to work with Dave; I have no doubt I chose the right agent. The results speak for themselves. He kept me calm and helped navigate the hurdles as they happened. Dave’s efforts combined with the market conditions resulted in a quick sale at the asking price. This guy knows what he’s doing.

Dave was an amazing resource for us being new to the Kirkland market. He found us great options and went out of his way to show us homes that we were interested in. We were doing a 10-31 exchange so, our timeline was VERY tight and, even with that we found an amazing home and couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We’d highly recommend Dave to anyone looking for a home in the Kirkland area.

Dave Janssens handled the sale of my friend’s home-and for significantly more money than the offers I had already received. His marketing strategy was “right on” and did create the bidding we hoped would happen. The sales price we received more than compensated for the sales fees paid.

It was a difficult time for me having just lost my friend and trying to process her estate including the sale of her home. I appreciated how accommodating and sensitive he was to the needs of the family and me in working through the sale. I lived out of town and he kept a flexible schedule for me and working though planning the dates for the realtors’ Open House and the Open House for prospective buyers.

He really knows the Kirkland market for homes! He is a good communicator and the family and I gained valuable information from him. He was patient and met several more times with us than you would expect in order to meet the family’s and my needs. He always got right back to me and answered my questions openly and honestly.

His marketing the home as both a building site and/or home worked well. We received multiple offers and he analyzed each offer for me. It was a complex process with contingency offers, inspections, etc. The offer I chose was the one he suggested and clearly was the best price and the most qualified buyer.

I have purchased and closed on eight homes in my lifetime. By far, this sale was the easiest, fastest, and most glitch-free one I have ever experienced. I do attribute that to Dave and the team of professionals he put together including CW Escrow.

I appreciated how he took care of some little “issues” I had that were not really part of his job, but were over and above what I would expect a realtor to do. For example, taking out the garbage for me on garbage day, (saving me 3 hours of driving time) finding the “unusual” item in the closet during the open house and storing it safely for us.

He is the best agent I have ever had the pleasure to work a sale

Dave was our 4th realtor during our year plus search for our home. Not only did Dave understand our needs and just show us what was relative but he helped us to be creative in our search. We ended up with the perfect home and were able to sell our home through him within days of listing.

I just closed on a new house yesterday in Bellevue and Dave was my agent. With the extremely low inventory, we had to compete against several other offers. Dave was a master negotiator and strategist. He knew just what levers to move to make sure we got the house. He was extremely responsive and knowledgeable. We closed on time without a hitch. I highly recommend Dave Janssens.

Dave gave us an excellent experience. He was great at listening to our needs, and quickly got a feel for what we liked and didn’t like. He only showed us houses that fit within our criteria, and didn’t waste our time. He was patient, and

And even in a hot housing market, he was savvy enough to get us a deal for a good price, due to his local market experience and because he could move extremely quickly. We consider ourselves lucky with the house we found, and without Dave, we may not have been this fortunate.

Dave’s expertise in the timing of selling, pricing and marketing our home resulted in a quick offer that proceeded through closing. He successfully managed through negotiating some inspection issues with the buyer. We were out of town during a good portion of the inspection repairs and Dave helped this process with referrals, and shepherding the repairs through completion.
Dave helped us sell our home in less than one week! He is incredibly experienced and knows how to strategize the sale of a home. Not only what to update, but how to price for the current market. He went through our home several times and identified what we needed to upgrade and how to stage for maximum effect; providing us with referrals to get everything done. The open house was an incredible success and we received $20K over the asking price. If you want to sell your home, enlist Dave Janssens as your agent.
Dave is an incredible realtor with extensive knowledge of the market and area. We absolutely loved working with him. He’s professional, knowledgeable, honest and to boot just a really nice guy. We bought a home last summer and when it came time for us to list our other house, we turned to Dave. The house sold very quickly due to Dave’s expertise and stellar advice. We can’t recommend him highly enough.
Dave was very helpful in the search for a new home as well as honest about getting our house ready for sale. He is very knowledgable about the Kirkland area and we would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a home in that city.
We had a fantastic experience working with Dave on the recent purchase and sale of our homes in Kirkland. Dave’s knowledge of the Kirkland real estate market combined with his connections in the Kirkland community are what really set him apart. He helped us find our perfect dream home and negotiate an unbelievable price in a market when “perfect” houses were in limited supply and selling as soon as they hit the market. And because of Dave’s experience, instinct, and tenacity the sale of our home went flawlessly. We couldn’t have asked for anything more!
Dave Janssens is a great guy to work with when buying a home. He listens to you and helps you find the right home for your family. While previewing potential listings with Dave he pays attention to what you are looking for and shows you homes that are within that criteria. Dave was available by email, phone and in person whenever we had a question or issue with the process of buying our home. Having an agent on your side at all times makes the home buying experience so much better.
