Carol Yamamoto

Seattle has always been Carol’s home. Over the years she has watched Seattle develop into neighborhoods with distinct personalities. It is common for urban neighborhoods to integrate their homes, parks, and schools with new amenities; local cafes, shops, Light Rail, brand new apartments, and big businesses all within blocks of each other. Culture, art, history, and diversity all add richness to these neighborhoods. For Carol, it is interesting to see these changes and neighborhoods develop their own personality. At the same time, she hopes a careful balance between new housing, Light Rail, businesses, and the original character of every neighborhood is respected.

Over the last 20 years, Carol has experienced a couple cycles of the real estate market. She has experienced the late 1990's of multiple offers and anxious Buyers. Also, through the recession period of short sales beginning in 2008, and now the market we are currently experiencing; where a movement of people are finding employment at any of the many successful businesses located in the Greater Seattle area. There are also a significant group of international clients that are both Buyers and Sellers. Overall, many qualified Buyers, both first-time and investment Buyers. Carol brings to her clients her knowledge and experience of the real estate market regarding neighborhood transitions, the local housing market trends, and her success in helping others find their dream home or moving on. More importantly, she has experience in preparing a property for sale and negotiating for a Seller. In turn she knows how to prepare an offer for a Buyer that best represents what they can offer considering what the Seller would appreciate. Carol enjoys her job and is thankful for the wonderful people she has met over the years as a real estate broker, and that is what makes her job one of the best for her.
