Eric is an amazing human being and the best real estate agent I have worked with over the last 30 years. He is an experienced professional, knows the industry, is proactive and patient, and makes the process of buying a home seamless.

We needed a bit more support than usual from a Real Estate agent since we were looking into buying a property remotely. We reached out to Eric and he responded within minutes. He helped us with on site property videos along with his own neighborhood insights. Our budget was on the lower end of the price range but Eric always treated us like we were buying a million dollar home. If you need personalized service and local expertise, please reach out to Eric Butler.

Eric is professional, caring and very helpful.
Helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. Selling a home and property that had been a part of my life for almost 45 years. He helped to take most of the pain away. Also helped me purchase my new home. And even now if there is anything I need, he's here to help.
You won't regret working with him, I assure you.

Eric was totally awesome from the onset of our relationship! I was connected with him through my San Diego Realtor Dan Becker who received a recommendation from one of his associates. He listened to what my wants and wishes were for my "new forever home". When a property was selected and the buying process initiated we encountered a few glitches but he was available to assist me in what was a new and stressful situation.
I would highly recommend Eric to anyone searching to buy a property in the Ocean Shores area.
I conveyed my experience with my San Diego Realtor Dan Becker so that he can share Eric's contact information with any other persons who may be looking on relocating to the Northwest.
Thank you once again Eric for everything!
Pat

Eric listed and sold our home in Ocean Shores for us. He understands the market, knows what buyers are looking for and is amazing to work with. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to work with. He kept us updated throughout the process and talked through every step with us. We have bought and sold several homes over the years and Eric was by far the best realtor we have ever worked with. Thank you Eric for everything!! We are so happy we found you and had the chance to work with you.

Eric helped us purchase several years ago and sell our home this year. He is a class act, responsible, knowledgeable of the area, and professional. We had a vacation home and lived several hours from Ocean Shores, anytime we needed something at the OS house, he would help out. He is not only a fantastic agent, but an amazing human and someone we consider a friend. We cannot recommend him enough!

Eric Butler is an exceptional realtor - truly a 10! A caring person with expertise is what I was looking for during a stressful time. I called several and was fortunate that Eric was the one who answered the phone. He was always responsive to calls, texts or emails, went out of his way to resolve issues, and was always respectful. His referrals to vendors provided some hardworking, trustworthy people.
Eric is a wonderful person to work, along with the office staff. It was a pleasure to have him on my side!

Eric was my realtor for the purchase of my home in Ocean Shores. I had met him a year earlier when looking at another house to buy. He was not my realtor but a stand in for a colleague. I was so impressed by his expertise that this year I asked him to be my realtor. Eric goes every mile for his clients. He knows what needs to get done and he does it. Now Eric is my listing agent on my house in Snohomish County. I trust him to get the job done, selling my house there. You cannot go wrong with Eric as your agent.

We had the pleasure of working with Eric Butler for our real estate needs in Ocean Shores. Eric was nothing short of awesome. His communication skills were excellent, ensuring that we were kept in the loop at all times. He was a veritable treasure trove of information, which greatly aided in making informed decisions.

Eric made the entire process extremely streamlined. His expertise and dedication took away much of the stress usually associated with such transactions. We are thankful to have had the opportunity to work with him.

We would highly recommend Eric to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, competent, and dedicated real estate agent. His commitment to his clients is truly unparalleled.

His attention to detail, integrity, and transparency made this transaction amazing! Eric is a 'can do' agent who works hard for his clients every step of the way. It was such a pleasure and joy to work with an agent who's professionalism shines. Eric, I can't wait to work with you again in the near future! Thank you!

Mr. Butler is a gem in the real estate world. Eric, as most of his clients know him, is service oriented, mindful of his clients wants and needs and well informed regarding the market he serves. He works continuously to ensure his clients have the most current market information to make the best investment decision. Eric strong work ethic and service commitment is by far one of the best I have experienced. It is personal commitment and connection that make Eric the 'go to' when buying or selling. Thanks Eric!

We have quite a bit of experience buying and selling on the north WA coast. Eric Butler is head and shoulders above the rest. He really did represent us, not just get us to do things to make sure the sale went through. When there were things that the buyer’s realtor should have known, we did not have to make big concessions and yet the sale went through. Other realtors with more listings, seem to use small listings like vacant land, like teasers to get their clients to be interested in their other listings. One of those other realtors, who had our listing originally talked a potential buyer with no contingencies into adding them, which drove a buyer away. Eric did not do anything like that, and I believe really did try to sell our listing and did a bang up job. Highly recommend him.

Thank you Eric for making our experience of home shopping fun and enjoyable.
Eric was professional and great to work with, listened to our wants and needs, and helped us see past what we didn't like when we found our diamond in the rough! Eric helped us find this perfect home, and with a little bit of love and cosmetic work, we now have a gorgeous custom home we LOVE. Eric was referred to us by our close family friends John and Renee; Eric was the realtor they worked with three years ago when they bought their home. John told us we should call Eric, that he was the best realtor they had ever worked with (they had bought and sold several homes throughout the years.) We are glad we made that call; my husband and I highly recommend Eric; he is the BRST!

The service Eric provided was 2nd to none! After connecting with Eric regarding properties that caught my interest, he offered a virtual education on the Pacific Northwest, with a greater focus on Ocean Shores. Eric paid attention to the requirements my wife and I had and then homed in on what properties met our parameters. Eric gave us several hours of his time when my wife and I took a trip into Ocean Shores, so we could see all the property listings we were interested in. Eric was patient, informative, and was transparent on the pros and cons from one location to the next.

Once we decided which property we wanted, Eric walked us through every step of the purchasing process.

I highly recommend Eric's Real Estate Agent Services for those considering on buying a home or property.

Not only was Eric our Real Estate Agent, but he's also our newest friend in Ocean Shores!

North Beech Reality LLC., and specifically their agent, Eric Butler receive our highest recommendation for service. We have bought and sold houses all over the country due to work changes, and buying in Ocean Shores was one of the easiest due to NBR.
First off, when we made initial contact, we not only received non-automated replies in short order, but they were very informed with facts as opposed to only glowing reviews.
Secondly, as we were still performing obligations in another state, Eric selflessly volunteered to ensure our punch list was completed by personally staying while work was ongoing. He did this multiple times. Every question we had in the process was nearly instantly replied too.
NBR and Eric Butler come with our unreserved recommendation.

Do yourself a favor, engage Eric. He worked with us for over 8 months looking for a new house. He pivoted without complaint or difficulty every time the market shifted or we changed our direction. When we'd go look at houses, he'd point out items we wouldn't have known to look at and we made well informed decisions because of it. Ultimately, he found our dream home in an area we hadn't even considered. But because of spending the time with us and knowing what we were looking for, we trusted him when he tacked on house to our searches. We'll never use another agent in WA again. He's earned our business for life.

What an absolute pleasure it is to work with Eric. He is fast, effective, efficient, and made the process truly enjoyable. Although I'm sure he is very busy (just look at all the other 5 star reviews!), he made me feel like I was his only client. Always responsive, upbeat, kind, trustworthy, and knowledgeable, Eric serves the community well. Under his expert guidance, my house sold in Ocean Shores at lightning speed. I received my first offer within days of going to market and we closed within a few weeks at a great price. My only wish is that I could give him more than 5 stars!

I can’t tell you how grateful we were to work with Eric during our home hunt. Given the market, our search radius was…anything on the Washington State Peninsula that is 90 min from Olympia (but not Olympia and ideally still in Grays Harbor), 1+ forested acre, high speed internet, home or lot. That didn’t faze him. He was infinitely patient, kind and very supportive. He had no qualms with meeting us anywhere on the Peninsula, despite being located in Ocean Shores, which was a relief as we didn’t want to reach out to multiple agents throughout our search. Given we were thinking of building a house or buying an existing home on acreage, I can’t tell you how Eric’s knowledge really helped us filter through the real estate noise. Whenever we identified a new lot or acreage home that we wanted to take a look at, he’d ensure he performed his due diligence prior to our tour by means of pulling every piece of intel on the area and the property to assess what may be of concern or benefit. He knows his way around wells, septic systems, signs of infestation, leaks, foundation problems, road agreements, county-specific issues, etc. When it came to building, he would pull septic data on neighboring houses to assess historic feasibility for consideration, any possible wetlands that may prove difficult for master building planning and considerations for how to level a lot and, of course, the estimated costs that we should anticipate accruing from the feasibility side vs the overall land prep prior to building. As newbies to the idea of building, it was a relief to have such a knowledgeable agent who could gently direct us by discussing the plusses and minuses of each property without pushing us in any particular direction. When we finally found THE property (+home!) we wanted to move forward with, he went to bat for us during closing to make sure the seller was accountable for any of the glaring issues that needed to be addressed and provided full transparency throughout the closing process. Even after Eric handed the keys over to us, he was still helping us with contractor recommendations and any other questions we had. I can’t say enough good things about Eric. You really will be impressed with his broad knowledge and his willingness to be there every step of the way in the buying process. Thanks, Eric!!

Eric did an excellent job in selling my Condo. He approached us in a gentle manor, " not pushy" and he listened well, before making any suggestions. He got back to us when he said he would. He did his research and was very thorough. Eric remained positive thru the whole experience. I would recommend. Eric to anyone in the Real Estate business.

Selling was an incredibly difficult choice to make on lots of levels. Add to that, the market was starting to slow down after COVID, it was the end of summer and I was prepared for a long ride. Through a well-crafted listing, and the diligence of working through a few hurdles, Eric got my place sold and closed in a month for a price much higher than I would have imagined! He was a knowledgeable and supportive coach through the whole process of evaluating offers! Now I just get to be excited for the next chapter - highly recommend, 10/10!!

We were referred to Eric Butler by long time friends and from the very first outreach until we received our key Eric was phenomenal.
His communication was honest, timely and continual.
During our first call Eric asked us important questions such as how important is it to us to be in close proximity to Medical Care. He listened thoughtfully to our "must have" and "be nice to have" needs.
Eric left the communication open and encouraged us to reach out to him with questions or concerns along the way. He explained in detail what was currently happening in our purchase process and what we can expect next.
We had questions along the way and our emails and text messages were always well received and he would answer often within minutes with information we needed to keep our minds at ease.
Eric is an extremely kind man and he has been such a pleasure to work with. He is a fantastic Real Estate Broker who holds extensive knowledge on so many different topics. It is clear that he enjoys his work and the community of Grays Harbor.
We would recommend Eric Butler to anyone seeking to purchase a home in the Grays Harbor area.

Thank you Eric for keeping us grounded and for giving us this incredible home buying experience.

I have been a CA licensed RE Agent for 30+ years and found Eric Butler to be everything I would expect of myself in any real estate transaction. Not being familiar with WA State purchase agreements and forms, Eric did a detailed explanation, line by line of our offer. He did all the investigations with the City of Ocean Shores even before our offer was accepted to be ahead of the game during these crazy real estate days of multiple offers and ‘Offer due by date”. I would highly recommend Eric as a “Buyer” or “Seller’s” Agent based on my experience. I totally enjoyed working with Eric Butler.
