What do Clients Say?

“Tanya did an amazing job selling my home. From her help with staging analysis, incredible video tour of the property and photo shoot, to her drive to be sure potential clients saw the house and finally close the deal, she was top of her class! She had the professionalism, knowledge of the market and commitment to get the job done! High end properties can be a challenge and she stepped up and exceeded expectations on every level. I would highly recommend her to others.”

Kathryn Muelder ~ Seller

Tanya's professionalism and knowledge of the housing market clearly make her an exceptional realtor. Her marketing background and skill in showcasing our property put us in the best position possible, especially given the challenging market. We listed our house during the "big interest rate increase" of 2024 and we felt confident in her expertise in getting the job done. She and her staff made a stressful process manageable and we successfully sold our house in a short amount of time. She was very responsive to all inquiries we had and is an all around nice person. Someone we enjoyed working with throughout the process. This business can be very competitive and cutthroat, and she handled an exceptionally challenging realtor with grace and professionalism. We would highly recommend Tanya to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Carin & Jon E. ~ Seller

"A stellar, ethical, and hard working agent. We interviewed 3 Real estate agents prior to listing our home. Tanya clearly knows the neighborhood, listened carefully to our ideas and added wise counsel that helped us make better decisions. Tanya has a very talented team of experts; including a photographer, stager and closing agent. We were pleased to see a beautiful tri-fold pamphlet, professional video, and extensive networking, resulting in a quick and pleasant sale experience.”

John and Gail P. ~ Seller

We were SO lucky to find Tanya... she just happened to be the listing agent for a house that we wanted to see. We are moving to Spokane and didn't have an agent that we were working with. We didn't buy that first house that she showed us, but as soon as we met Tanya we knew that she would be the perfect person to represent us and help us in the search for our new home! She is professional, organized, excellent at communicating with us and just a pleasure to work with. We would recommend her highly to anyone looking for an excellent real estate agent!

Judy P. ~ Buyer

“More than 5 Stars !! Tanya and her team were very responsive, organized and honest when helping us find our new home. Tanya is very knowledgeable about the different neighborhoods and developments around greater Spokane, she has been a great resource! We were living out of town as we were looking for our next home, she was patient and went above and beyond to help us. She toured homes for us, got quick answers to all of our questions, and also used facetime to provide virtual interactive walkthroughs. We never felt pressure to make an offer or that we were taking too much of her time. Tanya earns your trust and is fun to work with. She used some great strategies to help us negotiate the best offer for our new home.”
