Allen and Natalie are amazing! We moved out of state and they worked with our contractors and made sure work was completed. They regularly checked in our house and even set traps and caught a mole that was terrorizing our yard!! Talk about above and beyond!! They are so helpful and friendly. Best part is that they worked so hard for us we got almost $100k over asking price after being on market only 4 days!!!!

Absolutely thrilled with my experience with The Hardworking Nice Guys Real Estate. Allen Johnson, along with Ben and Natalie, made both buying (2020) and selling (2024) my house a smooth process. They really went above and beyond to meet all my needs, and their attention to detail was top-notch. Highly recommend Allen and his team if you're looking to buy or sell a home. Thanks for making this whole thing way less stressful!

Allen and Natalie were very helpful during the process of finding us our first home. They were reliable and trustful the minute we had questions or wanted to go look at a house. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a new home!

Allen and Natalie have helped my family move 3 times in 14 years. Each experience has been a delight for us. We always sell at or above asking, get extra service we need to close the deal, and Allen and team coach us through every rough patch(if you've sold a home you know there are always rough patches). It's worth going with this team of experienced people - really makes a difference!

Our experience with Natalie and Allen as our realtors was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we embarked on our home buying journey, they were there every step of the way, demonstrating unwavering dedication and professionalism. One of the most striking aspects of Natalie and Allen's service is their availability. They were always just a phone call or text away, promptly responding to our inquiries and concerns regardless of the time of day. This accessibility provided us with a sense of reassurance throughout the entire process. Moreover, Natalie and Allen exhibited remarkable patience, attentively listening to our detailed questions and concerns. They took the time to thoroughly address each query, ensuring that we felt informed and confident in our decisions. Their willingness to invest time and effort into understanding our needs truly set them apart. When it came time to submit an offer, Natalie and Allen provided invaluable guidance and advice. Their wealth of expertise in the real estate market became evident as they navigated us through a particularly competitive environment. Thanks to their strategic approach, we were able to secure our dream home with our very first offer, even in a highly competitive market. In summary, Natalie and Allen's professionalism, availability, patience, and expertise made our home buying experience not only successful but also enjoyable. We are immensely grateful for their dedication and would highly recommend their services to anyone in search of a top-notch realtor duo.

Allen and Natalie are experts in the Bothell real estate market and gave us excellent guidance on how to prepare our house for sale. All their advice paid off because we SOLD our house in FOUR DAYS! They held four open houses that drew many prospective buyers, thanks to their effective marketing utilizing signage as well as posting on all the social media sites. Working with Allen and Natalie was fun because we didn’t worry about anything because they were thorough and kept us informed at every step of the way from getting ready to list, listing, and finalizing the sale. They really care about their clients and made us feel special. We have purchased and sold over 8 homes in our lifetimes and this was one of the best experiences of them all. We highly recommend the team of Allen and Natalie of the Hardworking Nice Guys!
-Ann & Don, Bothell, March 2024

What a great team to work with! You will not be disappointed if you use their services. They make the home selling process pleasant and simple. They offered great ideas, and they do their research. Highly recommended!
-Rental Investors, Everett, November 2023

Allen and Natalie are wonderful. They are easy and fun to work with at all times which is saying a lot for such a stressful endeavor as moving. They knew exactly how to price our house to strike a chord with buyers. We had seven offers within four days and sold for considerably over the asking price. Everything went smoothly, surpassing all our expectations. They are friendly and thoughtful as well as professional and efficient. We are grateful for their kind guidance and hard work.

Allen and Natalie did an amazing job for me. It felt like true collaboration on all the decisions. They were kind and thoughtful in giving directions to prepare for the sale then thorough with all of the information during the sale. The house had been in my family for 30 years and they both were thoughtful of the emotional side to the sale too.
-Stacy, Tacoma, September 2023

Huge thanks to Allen for his professionalism and patience when dealing with me as a first-time home buyer. He took the time to explain and streamline the process for me, was very much on top of dealing with the seller, and in the end, ended up getting me an awesome deal. If there's anyone reading this who is apprehensive about starting the process, don't hesitate to reach out to Allen as the first step. Thanks again, Allen!
-Sam, Bothell, May 2023

The hardworking nice guys truly deserve that name. They made selling my mom's house so easy. I appreciate the hard work they did for my family and truly made this experience as worry free as possible. Thank you, I will use them again and recommend them to all!
-Callie, Everett, September 2023

Allen and Natalie did in deed work very hard to help us sell our home in Bothell and find our new home. It took many multiple mile trips for us to find the perfect place. They made themselves available when needed and at times with short notice. Once we found what we were looking for they again worked hard making sure everything went well and that the house was exactly what we were looking for.
-Jerry & Barbara, Bothell, August 2023

Allen came highly recommended by an acquaintance who works in mortgage lending, and lived up to the recommendation! I was downsizing from a 2,100 square foot home after 20+ years and needed help finding reputable people to help sell excess furniture, deliver donations, clean and make repairs. Allen and Natalie stuck by me through a lengthy process (because of me) and had a buyer in a few days after listing. Closing was 30 days later, at an excellent price. Great service!
-Kathryn, Kenmore, April 2023

As they say, they work very hard to make sure you have the best chance to sell your home and are very knowledgeable.

We received 5 star service from Allen, Natalie and their team. They worked closely with us to prepare, price, stage and show our house of 19 years in Mill Creek in a shrinking (buyers) market. They stood by our side through the offer, contract, negotiation, inspection and final closing. Then they found us the near perfect house in the town of Allyn, with a house that checks everything off of our needs and wants list. We made an off and closed 16 days later with only 2 days in-between the two closings. Buying and selling houses can be stressful, but it was not for us. We trusted Allen and Natalie and we knew they had our backs. Their phones were always on and they were so responsive. We are grateful for their skills and expertise. Hardworking nice guys? Absolutely YES Thank you,
- Virginia, Bob & Daisy, Mill Creek, August 2022

Allen and Natalie did a great job helping us sell our house. Allen answered our returned our calls quickly and had all the answers for us. They really go above and beyond and follow up after the sale. They also helped us find our new house and helped to make that sale go smoothly. We appreciate their knowledge and attentiveness! Even our dog liked them!
- Judy, Bothell, August 2022

100% endorse and highly recommend these folks. They made sure that they were available and truly had my best interests at heart during the process. Both Allen and Natalie guided me through the home buying process making sure I knew everything about the prospective home and made sure I was well informed. They taught me what to look for and what to avoid and it was great and now I am a homeowner! If I ever find myself selling or looking for a new home they will be my first phone call!
- Michael, Marysville, June 2022

We couldn't be happier with our choice of the hard working nice guys. We mostly worked with Natalie (the hard working nice gal) who was flexible, patient and informative while we stumbled our way through purchasing our first home. Natalie was consistently available to tour the properties that we were interested in. When we were ready to start making offers Natalie and Allen helped us make sense of inspections and decide whether or not it made sense to move forward. We never felt any pressure either way. Ultimately we are very happy with the house we ended up with and the service we were provided!
- Ryan, Seattle, April 2022

I can’t thank Allen and Natalie enough for all their efforts in making our home-selling experience easy and enjoyable! Their expertise led to the whole process going smoothly and quickly, and they turned a normally stressful experience into a very pleasant and exciting one. I can’t imagine working with anyone else. Do not hesitate to reach out to Natalie or Allen if you are considering selling or buying a home! Thanks a bunch!!

The Hardworking Nice Guys were a great help in guiding me through downsizing and preparing my home of 27 years for getting on the market. They managing to get me more than $200K over the asking price. I heartily recommend these Hardworking Nice Guys for all your realty needs.

Fantastic experience with Allen & Natalie, thank you! They were always responsive, thoughtful, and went to great lengths to help us purchase our first home.
-Jason, Bothell, December 2021

It was a Thursday morning when I saw the home we had been waiting for come on the market. Offers were due Monday evening and it was definitely going to be extremely competitive.
Although we were excited to see the perfect home for our family, we were also scared that we would miss out on this opportunity we had been searching for over the last year. We wanted to find our forever home.
Important point; we had not even spoken with any brokers, lenders, or gotten prequalified for a loan. We needed someone with the network, skill, and proven track record of performance in a competitive market.
Despite having worked in SFR for the last 17 years and working with brokers across the country, I didn't have a local broker to turn to when I needed help finding my personal home. I was very familiar with the space and knew what I needed in the role, we just didn't know who it would be. I did know that Allen, Ben, and Natalie ( The Hardworking Nice Guys ) were the go to pro's in my market and they seemed like the obvious first call.
They lived up to every inch of their reputation. They were responsive, reliable, and experienced professionals in addition to simply being good people that I came to inherently trust.
They gave us a lending contact who was willing to work with me on a Sunday in order to allow us to bid on Monday, a competitive offer analysis to help guide our negotiation strategy, and leveraged their experience to help us submit a winning offer while driving every aspect of the transaction.
End of the day, we could not have chosen a better team, we are lifers.

This team is awesome. I had the opportunity to work with Allen, Ben and Natalie. I had purchased another home in the past with Allen’s help so it was natural to use the team’s services for another purchase. Purchased a few months ago when the market was so hot. Team went above and beyond in working with us. On-site virtual tours, quick responses and making the process easier. Great expertise of market and their own network. Not only are they super nice, also very hardworking and they truly care. Next house… I’ll reach out again. Definitely recommend.

Helping sell our rental property was a great experience using Allen. The inside needed a lot of work in preparation to sell. I am a DIY kind of guy, who loves to do a lot of the work myself trying to save money. However, I also didn't want to take on too much work my self. Allen reached out to contractors and we quickly developed a plan to divide up the work fairly. The contractors were very flexible and I felt that at anytime they could take on the work that I couldn't. I was able to save a lot of money and the cost of interior re-design by doing a lot of the work myself. Allen's team did an amazing job at marketing the home and communicating the best offers to accept. Overall it was a great experience!

Working with the Johnsons couldn't have been better - extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and hard working. Ben was always willing to show me a home and provided a wealth of market data to help me make an informed decision. I wouldn't even think of choosing anyone else!

Allen and Ben were absolutely wonderful to work with! They helped me sell my house and buy a condo with great expertise and support, making a huge transition for me so much easier and less stressful than I ever could have imagined!

I'm a business executive who has bought and sold properties all over the country, and working with Allen Johnson and his team was the best real estate experience I have had.

Today, I am living at my new home because of Ben Johnson. In this day in age with all that's going on with the home market prices sky rocketing, low inventory, and the never ending bidding war, it can be extremely overwhelming for the buyer (if you're reading this, I know your pain). However, through Ben's expertise and talent he helped us achieve our goal to buy our first home. We went through a lot obstacles. It wasn't easy. Despite, experiencing those adversities we always felt confident to have him as a our agent. That's the ideal agent you want. Someone you can trust and get back up even if you get outbid the first couple of times. Ben, is the son of Allen Johnson. I've never met Allen but I am sure there's a reason why their family is called the Hardworking Nice Guys because that resonation is true. Ben is nicest guy you'll ever meet. Excellent customer service, consistent communication, great negotiation skills, and is everything we can ask for. If you're reading this you won't regret speaking to Ben. He was consistent from start to finish (he's also been checking on us weeks after we purchased the home). I can tell people I learned a thing or two about real estate.
-Tadd, Roy, June 2021

Allen and his team were very professional in helping us as sellers execute a lightning quick sale and closing. Allen is very attentive to his customers’ needs and understands how to achieve maximum value for his clients in this very dynamic market. Whether you’re a buyer or seller, I highly recommend The Hardworking Nice Guys for all your real estate needs.

Allen should be your first and only call when looking to sell your home.

We decided to move to Los Angeles and wanted to sell our house. New to the process we came into it quite apprehensive and anxious but Allen and Ben made us feel at ease from the start and guided us through it effortlessly. They were personally involved in everything and it felt like we were with friends. Our house sold quickly for a great price. We would recommend the business to anyone in the Bothell and surrounding area.

Allen and his team have help my family buy and sell multiple homes. The last one was in Mukilteo at 12723 52nd Pl W. He was able to sell out home for above asking, is polite, professional and a pleasure to work with. We will be selling/buying from his team in the future should we need to move. They're a solid group of folks.
-Matt, Mukilteo, January 2021

Allen is not only an expert in the goings on of Western Washington, he is a process expert and knows how to get the best possible deals both buying and selling. And he never sugarcoats anything - he will always tell you what you can expect and what actions you might need to take to make things happen. Allen helped us buy and sell our home in Auburn - he knows the process inside and out and works quickly to ensure his customers have the best representation and the best chance at being successful. Not only that, but he is of the highest character . You won't find a better agent!
-Kellie, Auburn, January 2021

Allen and Ben Johnson did such a wonderful job of selling our house. The pictures and video were amazing and we had so many people scheduling appointments for showings. It was the best experience my husband and I have ever experienced in selling a home. We highly recommend them.
-Kathy, Bothell, November 2020

As a first time homebuyer I truly enjoyed my experience working with Allen. I have known Allen a number of years seeing him around the community and on the soccer field so it was great to have his help and guidance through the process. Trust is what comes to mind! His experience and knowledge was very evident as we walked through houses and went through the process. I knew I could count on Allen whether it was answering my calls, text or emails or climbing on the roof during the inspection, or just giving me honest advice, feedback and recommendations. I will definitely be recommending Allen to friends and family. Genuine, hardworking, honest guy who I thoroughly enjoyed working with and I would work with again!
-Derek, Everett, December 2020

Allen is a great local expert. He was very responsive to my needs, and I truly felt as though he was advocating for me as the seller. He was quick to point out the pros / cons of the various properties we toured in a way that I felt had my best interest in mind. I would highly recommend Allen to my peers. As a first time home buyer, I am glad that I worked with Allen, who was looking out for me!
-Michaela, Seattle, November 2020

We have worked with Allen several times. He has successfully helped us purchase and sell property. He is very easy to work with, honest, very responsive and has a lot of real estate knowledge that has been incredibly helpful.

-Andrew, Stanwood, November 2020

As a first home buyer, Allen really took the time to explain every little detail to me and pointed out things to look for when considering a home. He even went above and beyond, like meeting me late nights and even on Sundays to show homes. I plan on using him as much as possible and recommending to everyone I know!
-Alex, Everett, September 2020

Working with Allen and Ben was an absolutely terrific experience. Both truly embody their 'hardworking nice guy' mantra. We received great advice on what to address/improve, and where to relax. Communication was top notch throughout the entire process, and we were expertly guided through each bump in the road. Thank you Allen and Ben for the partnership and support getting our house sold! You are the BEST!

Allen demonstrated knowledge of the market and was familiar with the housing communities surrounding Edmonds. Allen employed expert photographers for marketing my home and his office staff did a superb job in getting materials together for the listing. Allen was very prompt when we met to look at potential properties for me to buy. All in all, a positive experience with Allen Johnson
-Seller in Edmonds, May 2020
|
I wanted to sell a rental property I owned and called Allen. Allen took care of everything for me. I contacted my tenant, told him that my agent, Allen Johnson would be contacting him. I did not have to talk to the tenant, do a final walk through or anything. Allen recommended some things be done before putting the house on the market, hired a contractor to do the work. I was amazed that there were five offers the first weekend the house was on the market. I never left my house and the sale was completed. It required no effort on my part, Allen did a superb job. Allen kept me up to date on every aspect of things that were happening. It was so easy
-Marilyn, Everett, May 2020

Allen has had our back in both the buying and selling process. He is courteous and professional, and genuinely cares about his clients. We know we can count on his team for our real estate needs. .
-Jesse and Lauren, Auburn, January 2020

I'd like to highly recommend Allen. I had met Allen a few years ago and when finally decided to purchase another home - I reached out to him to engage his services. Best Agent I have ever had. The home was at a distance and he was always available. His knowledge is impressive and if he does not have the info he immediately looks for the answer that will satisfy what is needed. Very smooth and personable, honest and clear in his communications. You can tell he cares for the buyer and seller regardless of whether he is selling or helping you buy your home. He gathered all the info I requested on the property and even more than needed - some of it was pretty hard to gather as it involved property, lines, plots and well information - building permits and other items that I wanted to ensure where included and clear. Will definitely reach out to Allen for my next purchase or sale..
-Leticia, Port Orchard, November 2019

Allen and his son did a fantastic job from start to finish. I am a single and was downsizing from the family home and needed the support and guidance of a true professional. I was impressed with how well they took care of me, got my home sold, and helped me find a new home that is perfect and will be great for years to come. They helped calm my nerves when I needed and guided me through the process with ease. Thanks guys! Appreciate the help.
-Kathy, Everett, November 2019

We were referred to Allen thru a handful of our closest friends that have worked with him on more than one occasion. We're so happy with the service that Allen provided with the purchase of our first home! He's a professional, very down to earth, and was very patient during our search. We had our toddler with us during viewings, and he was great around her, which made it easier for us to view homes. Looking forward to working with Allen and his son Ben in the future! .
-Brenda and Ryan, Sultan, July 2019

My wife and I used Allen and his team to buy our first home. We had a great experience with them. After finding our house in a hot market, Allen worked tirelessly to get us a fair deal on a house that needed some work. We couldn’t be any happier and will defiantly use him again in the future! .
-Nick and Rian, Lake Stevens, June 2019

Allen did an amazing job helping us buy and sell our homes. He was patient and encouraging while house hunting, quick to respond, and always available to show us homes. One thing I really appreciate about Allen is how great he is with kids! It made it so easy for me to bring along my two little kids to see houses, and he was always happy to answer my daughter's questions! Thanks to Allen we were able to buy the perfect home for our family. Our previous home needed a lot of work to prepare to sell, but he helped connect us with contractors to get the work done. Everyone he recommended did an awesome job, and they have all known Allen for many years. He helped guide us with listing our home and took care of everything for us. We sold our home in 3 days, and Allen even personally delivered the rest of our furniture we had left for staging. Who does that?!! Seriously! His son and assistant, Ben, also did an incredible job helping out through the whole process. They make a really great team! We are so grateful to have had Allen as our agent and would highly recommend him to everyone!!.
-Nicole and Kevin, Seattle, November 2018

We bought and sold our home with Allen. He and his son Ben were amazing in every phase of the process. I've bought and sold many houses in the last 30 plus years and Allen is by far the best real estate professional I've ever work with bar none.
-Mike and Kimberly, Everett, November 2018

Working with Allen was a joy and greatly simplified our purchasing of a duplex. He was very knowledgeable about house values and what kinds of things we should look for. He was extremely detail oriented and very efficient about coordinating our purchasing the new property with the agencies involved with a 1031 exchange. I would give Allen my very highest recommendation.
-John, Lynnwood, October 2018

Allen has been in the industry for awhile and has been successful doing it. He was patient with us and helped us navigate the market. At every point he was helpful and extremely thoughtful in making sure our needs were met. I'd happily work with Allen again.

Allen Johnson went above and beyond to make our home buying experience as easy and smooth as possible. We have already recommended him to many of our family and friends. In this tight real estate market, an agent has to be on the ball. Al was extremely responsive in updating us on new properties, scheduling walk throughs, and assisting us through the bidding and purchasing process. In addition, when we had difficulties with the previous owners not following through on agreed upon obligations, Al demanded what was in our best interest as home buyers. He even made sure the grass was mowed before we moved in! Al Johnson is #1 realtor!

I recently helped my 85 year old mother with the sale of her home and Allen was our realtor. He was an absolute rock star from start to finish and got us a sales price that we didn't think was possible. We so much appreciated Allen's knowledge of the market, his relationships within the real estate community, how he removed obstacles and made things happen. He has fantastic people skills and really listens, has strong attention to detail and was so patient with my mom. He could not have treated her with more respect and understanding if she had been his own mother. It brings me to tears to think about it. I don't know where else you could possibly find a realtor with Allen's amazing skill set. Mom and I highly recommend him to anyone!
-Karen, Silver Firs, May 2018

Twenty years ago Allen helped my parents buy their home. He did such a good job at making sure that their needs were met and that their six year old daughter(me) liked the house too. So when my husband and I started looking to buy our first house, Allen was who my parents recommended. He responded quickly to every text and email we sent. He made himself available so he could walk us through each house and answer any questions that we had. We could not have done this without Allen’s expert help. When I finally listed, it was a given he was going to be my agent. He is very easy and pleasant to work with.
-Sean and Heather, Lake Stevens, March 2018

We were referred to Allen by a friend & he met all of our expectations. Allen was always available & was quick to point out possible problems we may not have recognized as first time home buyers. He is very knowledgeable in both the pnw region and all things home & home buying. He has a great team & the process was very smooth. We will continue to recommend him to all of our friends and family! When I finally listed, it was a given he was going to be my agent. He is very easy and pleasant to work with.
-Mike and Lisa, Marysville, March 2018
|
We have used Allen to both purchase a home as well as sell a home. Both times Allen was professional, honest and always available. He has been very helpful and patient throughout the whole process. We have recommended him to family and friends and he has successfully sold their homes too! If your looking for an agent that will do a great job....call Allen! When I finally listed, it was a given he was going to be my agent. He is very easy and pleasant to work with.
-Andrew and Tammy, Bellevue, January 2018

Allen was recommended to me by a friend five years ago and over those five years he always promptly returned my calls and been professional and pleasant no matter how busy he was. Anything that needed doing he took care of it and I had confidence it would be done correctly. I never had a problem. When I finally listed, it was a given he was going to be my agent. He is very easy and pleasant to work with.

Allen was very helpful, he took care of things I didn't have time to do because I was out of town a lot during this time. He located painters and carpet layers for me, and made sure things were in working order when the house went on the market.
-Gary and Josie, Silver Firs, January 2018

Allen and his partner Ben were excellent to work with. They helped us understand the process and expectations along the way and also had great resources to ease the process. I would definitely work with them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Allen was very supportive in what was a difficult real estate situation. He is quick to respond to all questions and easy to contact. I highly recommend Allen Johnson!

Allen was able to answer any and all questions that we had. Our sale and closing went quickly with no issues. I enjoyed working with Allen and hopefully I will have a chance to work with him again!
-Lynn, Marysville, October 2017

Allen was great to work with! He always responded to calls, texts, and emails quickly. Allen is very personable and knowledgeable regarding not only the housing market but the local area in general. Next time I buy or sell a house Allen will be my agent of choice.
-Shari & Chris, Bothell, October 2017

I had very specific criteria for where I needed to look for a home and Allen was able to send me great updates on properties available in my area and budget. I never once felt that he tried to get me to spend more than my budget and educated me very well. In the end I was able to find a home I love in the area I need, and was not only under budget, but he also got it for me under asking price!

Allen is a highly experience realtor with great communication skills. He helped me sell my mom's house after she passed and made the process about as easy as it can get. In addition, he relies on competent knowledgeable people for other items needed to sell a house such as the escrow and title company. Please think of Allen the next time you are looking to buy or sell a house.
-Jesse, Bothell, October 2017

We’ve worked with Mr. Johnson before and we knew we could trust him to do what was right for our situation. We bought our house through Allen and sold our house with him and he kept us up to date throughout both processes.
-Dennis & Wilai, Granite Falls, October 2017

Allen was so great to work with! His response rate is AMAZING and his attention to detail was impressive. When it came to making my offer and handling negotiations he was excellent! I was a first time homebuyer and he walked me through every step of the process patiently and thoroughly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell!
-Megan, Woodinville, September 2017

We were so lucky to have Allen help us buy our first home. He is very knowledgeable of the area and real estate market trends. He possesses a finesse with getting further details from sellers and other agents that makes the process easier. He truly cares about his clients and works hard to help you find your dream home. He stuck with us through this year long process on a home in this crazy market. This involved writing up several offers and showing us countless homes. He was always very prompt with paperwork and punctual with meetings. We will definitely recommend him to our friends and family and reach out to him for our future real estate needs.
-Katie & Tony, Bothell, August 2017

Allen listed our rental house for sale, and gave us some useful advice on improving the appeal of the house, as well as helping with staging. We accepted an offer from some buyers that took longer than the originally agreed closing date to get their loan sorted out, and Allen put the pressure on their agent and lender to work out the issues, keep us updated, and release earnest money early to protect us. He also made sure escrow didn't charge us for some questionable fees.
-Howard, Tulalip, August 2017
|
Allen is a true professional. Not only is he knowledgeable, but he's an absolute delight to work with. He made time to show us homes right as they came on the market, and then coached us through best practices to ensure we had the winning offer. If you want the best in the business, this is your agent! Couldn't ask for a better realtor and now a family friend. His work ethic and knowledge speaks for itself. He provided a plethora of knowledge that helped us make an informed decision.
-Cory & Eric, Mountlake Terrace, August 2017

My husband and I recently purchased our first home with Allen. While this market has proven to be difficult for buyers, we had the easiest, fastest, and best experience working with Allen. We were referred to him initially by our family and friends (yes, multiple!). Allen's knowledge of our area, experience with buying and selling, honesty, and overall charm quickly earned our trust. He is always quick to respond, proves to be negotiable when necessary, and provides a no pressure environment. We have just moved in and truly enjoy our home. Since beginning our relationship with Allen we have and will continue to refer him to all of our friends and family! We will look to Allen for all of our future needs and questions as well. Big thanks to Allen!
-Cody & Sofia, Marysville, July 2017

Allen jump-started selling our condo before we officially contracted with him. He helped organize ideas that would bring the most value for our property. He uses a wonderful photographer that really captured our home. His assistant even drove to our place several times in order to help us with forms. I believe Allen negotiated the best deal possible for us. He provided timely service and was always available to answer questions. We owe him many thanks.
-Randy & Janenne, Everett, June 2017

Allen was great to work with. He was always available to get ahold of when we had questions, and he always had answers for us. He's very knowledgeable and helpful. Allen made the whole process very simple and smooth for us.
-Josh & Amanda, Snohomish, April 2017
|
Allen was a joy to work with, a very professional and down-to-earth agent to do business with! Allen's customer service did not end with the closing and possession of our home either; he has contacted us a couple times afterward just to see how things were going. We noticed after we had moved in that the previous owners had taken the nice, keypad door lock (front door) with them. We asked Allen about this and he immediately had one shipped to us (at his cost).
-Jesse & Lauren, Auburn, April 2017

Allen did a great job. We went from seeing a property Saturday afternoon to offer midday Monday with all the complexities taken care of by Allen. We have a great new home and he is a big reason why.
-Robert & Angela, Mukilteo, April 2017
|
For the first time we met him for a house showing, we really liked him on how relaxed and honest he was. He provided clarity in every step. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family going forward!
-Hiroko & James, Everett, March 2017

I have sold 1 house and purchased 2 houses with Allen now. I highly recommend him to anyone. He is extremely prompt to inquiries, has a useful resource pool that can help with any and all of your house buying and selling needs, and does a great job of removing stress of the buying experience. He is extremely dependable and his consistency is admirable. I plan to continue working with him into the future.
-Jared, Bothell, March 2017

He knows his stuff! Efficient, and very quick with responses on any questions we had.
-Hiroko & James, Lynnwood, February 2017

Allen was helpful and professional throughout the entire process. He was able to accurately and efficiently guide us through the home buying process and his advice was priceless.
-Justin & Rochelle, Monroe, December 2016

Allen was very attentive to our needs and did a great job making sure we got the best price for our home. He used great marketing technique, knew what the market would be like, and our house sold faster than we expected. It was a very positive experience.
-Connie & Chris, Everett, December 2016
|
Very easy to work with. Any questions I had were answered in a matter of minutes. If he didn't have an answer, he would find out the answer and call me back. He truly made the home buying process a breeze. I will tell everyone I know to use Allen. Great job Allen!!
-Kevin & Marina, Tacoma, November 2016

My husband and I just bought our first home with Allen and he truly made the entire experience painless, easy and enjoyable! He sold my parents home 10 years ago in the same area so he really knows the location and the surrounding areas. We honestly thought that the process was TOO easy because of how well Allen took care of us. When we buy again in the future without a doubt we will be getting back in touch with Allen and we look forward to it.
-Brett & Laura, Lake Stevens, November 2016

Allen Johnson is an outstanding and knowledgeable Real Estate Agent. I was extremely satisfied with his services and would definitely recommend him to others.
-John, Shoreline, October 2016

Allen is genuinely one of the best people we have ever known and certainly a knowledgeable and capable realtor. He made sure we were coming out ahead in every aspect of our purchase. He made sure that we were so well taken care of that at no point did we have those big purchase jitters. This is the 3rd time we've used Allen to buy or sell and he is definitely our go to guy. We recommend him 100%!!!!
-Travis & Wendy, Mountlake Terrace, October 2016
|
Allen was great. He was always quick to respond to any of my questions. He emailed us new listings daily so we knew what was available. Once we found the one, he was great with his knowledge of the market. He knew what would be a winning bid. Once our bid was accepted, he negotiated with the selling agent to have some work done at the seller's expense. Allen knew people in the trades to get the work done asap. I highly recommend Allen. We will certainly use him again in the future.
-Jim & Susie, Edmonds, October 2016

Allen was attentive to our needs, listened, offered, advice, and was available any time we needs him. I highly recommend him if you plan on selling or buying a home. He will be my choice when I'm ready to buy my next home.
-Terri, Bothell, October 2016

We came to a property without a realtor and Allen was the listing agent. He helped us construct and execute an offer that got us into the property and then did follow up with expediting the closing and the preparation of the property for new owner occupancy. I would readily recommend Allen to anyone buying or selling in the Puget Sound area.
-Rick, Bothell, October 2016

Allen provided the flexibility, guidance, and patience we needed to transition into our first home search and purchase. His developer like knowledge and real estate insight really helped us set the right expectations for a timeline and target the right homes to pursue. During house walk-throughs Allen had a superb eye for details that spoke to the history of a home, it's future as a investment, and it's impact on my family.
Allen also works with a very strong team who's strengths he leveraged to support us. He made the extra effort to use more than our fixed funds to increase our buying power. The result was a proactive and intelligent offer that beat out competition that was not only higher going in but included additional escalations!
Best part... The home, the schools, the yard is all so much more than we had hoped for.
Finding the perfect home wasn't easy. It took a lot of work, a lot of patience. Allen's experience and guidance made it happen.
-David & Amber, Mill Creek, October 2016

Allen has helped us buy twice and sell once. We have recommended him to several people as he always goes above and beyond. He graciously puts up with a hundred questions and demands and even entertains our kids while we take care of paperwork. We trust that with Allen, he's got our interests at the fore and we know we are being taken care of.
-Travis & Wendy, Ballard, September 2016

After a successful sale of our house in March 2016 we recommended Allen to a family member. He once again exceeded our expectations with both his professionalism, commitment and results. He produces exactly as promised and works with you to make the process very easy. We consider ourselves lucky to have found him!!!
-Sue & Jody, Lynnwood, September 2016

Allen was very professional and knowledgeable in helping us prepare for putting my mother's home on the market; as well as through the listing and selling process. He was readily available for any questions we had; plus kept us regularly updated. He was also very accommodating of our scheduling needs. He did a wonderful job for our family.
-Nancy, Marysville, September 2016

We have worked with Allen Johnson for many years whether buying and selling our residences or selling an investment property. His level of communication is outstanding and articulate. He is timely in his response time to our many questions and concerns whether during business hours or after. I highly recommend Allen to all my friends and anyone who says I'm selling my house and need an agent - who do you recommend?
-Fred & Pam, Woodinville, September 2016

Allen was very helpful in the whole process. He went above and beyond what we expected a real estate agent to do. Quick to respond.
-Rich & Chris, Arlington, July 2016
|
Allen has again and again gone above and beyond to help us find our home. Allen helped us find our first home several years ago, and helped us through an arduous process (it was a bank owned home) that took months and more of his time than we ever expected. He stuck with us all the way. Several years later he helped us sell it within days of listing and helped us find a new home when we moved. All of our experiences have been beyond fantastic and I can't say enough about the knowledge Allen has brought to our experience, I would recommend Allen to anyone I know!
-Brandon & Danielle, Auburn, July 2016

Allen helped my boyfriend and I with our first home purchase and he was there every step of the way. Very easy going and puts your needs first. I don't know what we would have done without him, I highly recommend!
-Andrew & Chelsea, Marysville, July 2016

Allen's expertise and knowledge in the field of real estate was apparent to my wife and I since our first meeting with him. Allen worked quickly and efficiently to pinpoint our exact dreams of a first home. Within a couple weeks, he located the perfect fit, had an offer put in, and had us approved through a lender he works with. The process was smooth and stress free. Thank you Allen for all your hard work.
-Mike & Rachel, Mill Creek, July 2016

Allen was amazing and I have already given his card to several people who are looking to buy. He went above and beyond the call of duty and we consider him as part of the family.
-Charlyn, Mountlake Terrace, May 2016

Allen is the best! He makes everything so easy, and comfortable. I felt like I was getting honest information, which you don't always get from other people in this business.
-Rebekah, Edmonds, April 2016

We have worked with Allen three times. Once to sell our old home, once to sell mother-in-law's home and once to sell Mom's home. We will call him again when it is time to sell our present home.
-Bret & Diana, Lynnwood, March 2016

We were more than pleased with Allen's knowledge, service, follow thru and the final results. He made the whole experience as smooth as possible. Allen is a true professional.
- Sue & Jody, Everett, Feb. 2016

Allen was very professional and enthusiastic. We have never sold a home before and he made the process very easy for us. We sold at 100% of asking price and were very satisfied with everything. I would recommend Allen as a realtor to anyone. He was a joy to work with!
- Fred & Paula, Everett, Jan. 2016

Allen was great to work with and always provided exceptional service. He had answers to our questions and guided us through the selling process without issues. I would definitely recommend Allen and would use him in the future!

We had a great experience working with Allen. Having met a couple years ago while casually looking for a home, Allen has continued to stay in touch and when the time came to act on making a purchase, Allen was exceptionally responsive, proactive, and made our home buying experience easy.

Thank you for all your work in helping my parents buy a home. I can remember you running back and forth for months helping them as they were so picky and had specific needs here in Mountlake Terrace. With all the ways you helped them, I knew when it was time to sell my home there was no doubt who I would call. After listing our house with all your recommendations and help, it sold for 20K more than asking price with those 3 offers in one day. We were so relieved. The last 3 years, I have not recommended any other realtor to anyone. But honestly, it was your friendship and care to me that sold me to you. Please feel free to have anyone contact me personally to hear it from my mouth about you as a friend and realtor. Thanks again Allen!

Allen brings that rare combination of professional expertise and a cordial, easygoing manner. We not only found a terrific condo, but had a blast doing it.
- Ray, Everett, July 2015

We HIGHLY recommend Allen. He helped us find the perfect house for our family.
- Meaghan & Jeremy, Edmonds, July 2015

Allen is incredible! He has sold two homes for us and helped us purchase three homes. He is our go-to agent and we wouldn't use anyone else. He is responsive, experienced and knowledgeable. He guided us through the most recent sale of our home and purchase of the new home, offering great advice all along the way. He was by our side every step of the way through a purchase process that was anything but smooth. I would recommend and have recommended Allen to many friends and colleagues. Everyone has had a positive experience!
- Andrew & Heather, Mukilteo, June 2015

Allen sold our home and was our agent for our new home purchase. Very professional and attentive throughout the whole process. We will use Allen with every home transaction in the future!
- Andrew & Heather, Mukilteo, June 2015

Professional, courteous, and a pleasure to work with. Allen went above and beyond to assist and was available to answer any questions I had. I would not hesitate to contact Allen for any of my real estate needs.
- Patti, Vashon, May 2015

We had the enviable situation of 11 offers in less than a week. Allen Johnson helped us work through the process of comparing some apples and oranges offers to figure out the best one for us. Allen was very quick to respond to our questions as we gathered information for the buyers for the 7 unit apartment building we were selling and processing the necessary documents with Title etc. This type of sale had the feel of Allen needing to spend more time acting as a go-between between the buyers and our family since this was a rental property. Nothing was needed ASAP and everything was completed and closed on-time.

Allen showed his competence in every aspect of selling our house.
- Brad & Tish, Mukilteo, April 2015

We were living in Long Beach California and in November my spouse accepted a job back in Seattle. We needed an agent who could find us a home and get a deal closed before the end of January. Referred by my cousin, we met Allen over the phone and did some e-mails back and forth. Allen listened and knew exactly what we needed and wanted in a home. We had done some research and Allen did as well. He took the time and previewed each home on our list then gave us feedback. Through that we were able to narrow it to a handful of homes that could potentially meet our needs. We literally had one day to fly up and try to find a place to call home. Allen made it happen. What is most impressive is that in what is a seller's market, Allen was an excellent negotiator and helped us seal a deal for $25,000.00 less than asking price. Unbelievable! We could not be happier. Allen handled the inspection and appraisal and took care of all the necessary factors. He stayed on top of the entire process through till the end. We would definitely refer him to friends and family as well as use him again should the need arise.
- Jack & Brian, Lake Forest Park, January 2015

This was the first time I was involved in a sale and it was my parent's home. Allen's sensitivity during this emotional time has been outstanding. Allen did an excellent job of keeping me posted as we navigated the various steps and explained things well. We were fortunate to have more than one offer to consider and Allen helped us to understand the differences and the pros and cons when comparing them. Allen was very accommodating of my schedule and chaotic work hours.
