Jeff Wolfe

Jeff is a lifetime resident of the greater Seattle area, and he knows Seattle very well. Jeff spent his childhood growing up in Edmonds, and then as an adult, he migrated south to Seattle where he spent several years living in the U-District, Wallingford, and Lakewood before eventually settling in the Upper Rainier Beach neighborhood. Jeff has been here for over three decades.

Jeff cherishes his role as a parent and over the years, he was an assistant soccer coach with the Mt. Baker/Lakewood league, a Rainier Little League coach, he volunteered with several school chess teams, supported youth in several orchestras, conducted an annual “bus tunnel” field trip for fourth graders, and was a very patient ballet parent (Jeff even took on the challenge of styling his daughter’s hair into the required traditional ballet-bun one time – note “one time!”). Jeff has spent many “dad hours” driving carloads of kids EVERYWHERE in Seattle.

Jeff and his family love to explore as well, and on a regular basis you can find them in every corner of this wonderful city they call home. When you get to all the magnificent neighborhoods Seattle has to offer, you know firsthand why Seattle is often ranks as a “best place to live.”

Knowing the city has helped Jeff in selling homes in about every area of town – north, south, east, and west in areas bordered from Everett to the North, south as far as Tacoma, the Cascade foothills to the east, and the Puget Sound to the West.

Jeff joined Windermere’s Mount Baker office in 2003 and since that time he has sold over two hundred homes. Jeff discovered real estate is a perfect match for his professional background and experience and he loves the work he does each day. Real estate provides him with a winning combination as a career – it supports Jeff’s love for working with people, gives him an opportunity to use his architectural background, feeds his imagination (that “vision” thing), supplies him with countless ways to work with numbers (pun intended!), piques his curious mind with investigative work regarding property, and it nurtures that sense of pride everyone gets when they know they’ve done a good job helping others.

As a broker, Jeff does not regard himself as someone simply working in sales, he considers the work he does as a service. Jeff has been in the field long enough now that he gets most of his business through referral; a testament to my commitment in providing the kind of service that benefits my clients in the best way possible.

Jeff arrived at Windermere with 30 years of experience in Architectural design -- a great advantage to his clients. As a graduate from the School of Architecture in 1978, Jeff can help you imagine a home’s potential and share ideas for any future remodel. He is also strong in the building and zoning codes so he can help to ensure your creative ideas are realistic ones. During Jeff’s years in real estate, he has helped clients with tasks like designing of new homes and simple to complex stud-up remodels including order-of-magnitude estimates, arranging for survey work for properties, managing the lot-boundary adjustments and short-plats for clients and meeting with City and County officials on client’s behalf regarding a wide variety of subjects.

Please note that Jeff was a licensed Architect from 1990 to 2001 and had chosen not to renew his Architectural license since becoming a licensed real estate broker.

Drawing from both Jeff’s personal connections and from Windermere’s experience, he has developed relationships with professionals who provide trustworthy and quality service (contractors, roofers, architects & engineers, surveyors, inspectors, bankers, title companies, escrow groups, mortgage brokers.) Jeff can help you determine what type of work needs to be done and share names of people who provide those services.
