Testimonials: We want to earn your trust, too

We have known Teri Williams both personally and professionally for close to 30 years. After living on Orcas for 40 years we made the difficult decision to move and start a new adventure exploring the US with our base in Arizona. Teri found us the perfect buyer, who was moving back to Orcas. She and her team made this happen as only they can do with care, integrity and honesty. The added bonus for Orcas is the entire team invests in the community with volunteer service and fundraising efforts for many local organizations. Who knows – maybe Teri will help us move back to Orcas again someday?

Searching for my dream property from out of state was not an easy endeavor. That is, until I found Monee. I finally had a trusted set of eyes and ears on the ground to look on my behalf. Together, we found my farm on Orcas.

Following our first contact we sent Sandi a detailed list of what we were looking for in a home. She did her homework, and showed us a number of potential fits for our needs, even though we were not ready to make a purchase immediately. The fact that we did not find anything that was "just right" did not deter her in the least. Properties like we sought are few and far between on Orcas Island, but Sandi never lost sight of our original goals list during our 3-year search. When we finally found the perfect place we knew it, and so did Sandi. She was like family, always keeping our desires in sight, and always watching out for us. During the pre-purchase inspection and evaluation period Sandi was a priceless resource for getting the very best people to help us in a critically timely way, and provided the much-needed voice of reason and calm. Incredibly detail-oriented and focused, she handled the inevitable surprises with skill and creativity, and made the process infinitely easier for us. Her negotiation skills are superb; she always seemed to know what would create success. Since our purchase, she has continued to connect us with creative, talented people to help us customize our dream home. Words truly fail us to describe the impact Sandi has had on our experience. She is one-of-a-kind, and truly a master at her craft. Potential clients should look no farther to find the ultimate professional and advocate in finding their island home

I recommend this firm to anyone considering selling or buying real estate in the San Juan Islands.

Working with Monee was a great experience. She got us into our first home in a competitive market by being fast and professional. Monee was on top of every deadline and detail and made the process so easy. I’ve heard that buying a home can be stressful and trying. But, with Monee, there was more laughter than tears.  Now our family is settled in our dream home – all thanks to Monee and her professionalism and joyful optimism.

Teri, I’ve watched you do whatever it takes to make things happen for your clients. First, you do your homework, which is how you can out-negotiate competitors to get your client the price they want to pay. You never overlook unresolved issues and future pitfalls just to get the deal done – instead you make sure there is as much certainty as humanly possible so there are no surprises down the road. And then there's your extensive knowledge of County regulations, who's who on the island, your business experience, and your comfortable ability in talking to everyone from the most accomplished and wealthy to new families just starting out. And let’s not forget your intangible but absolutely magic ingredient of positive persistence that brings everyone together – surveyors, attorneys, title company, county, contractors and more – to make real estate dreams happen.

The team at T Williams Realty works together with a base of knowledge that covers every aspect of buying and selling a home seamlessly. I was expecting stress and anxiety. Instead, I received the knowledge and creativity of a winning team.
