"Carlene made our experience selling our waterfront condo completely stress free! Carlene is extremely knowledgeable and her negotiating skills far exceed any other agent we have ever worked with in the past. Our condo was staged beautifully and priced right in order for us to receive multiple offers within the first week. We highly recommend Carlene to all of our friends and family."

"We used Carlene for our recent home purchase. We are happy with our choice in realtors but also in our home choice. Carlene's strongest qualties were that she was VERY responsive, ethical and knew the right way & time to provide tactful advice. We never felt pressure in our meetings with Carlene to make a decision or to look in certain price ranges. In the end- Carlene's best words of advice were to buy in Kirkland- she has a strong p****ion for Kirkland and we are so thrilled that we decided to buy there vs. other eastside neighborhoods. I would recommend Carlene to friends- she worked hard for us & was very trustworthy."

"Carlene is the ultimate agent professional. She brings a unique blend of business savy and street smarts to the process. Extremely diligent and allways available day or night. I have worked with many people over the last 35 years and she is in the top 1%. I would highly recommend Carlene for all of your real estate needs. She is the buyer and the sellers advocate. She recently ****isted us in both sides of the process and was a shining star."
The Best I've Ever Worked With! - Jesse Smith (Sep 19, 2007)

"As a mortgage broker with more than 7 years of experience in the mortgage industry I have worked with many different real estate agents and Carlene is hands down the best. I have never worked with an agent that represented their clients so thoroughly. She is extremely diligent and tenacious in the way she represents her clients but still extremely respectful to every party involved in the home buying transaction ensuring that everyone is able to work together to close the deal on time every time. I've worked with a number of agents whose inexperience caused them to set false expectations for their clients which ultimately can create tension between the realtor, their client(s), the broker and other parties making the experience a miserable one, however Carlene's experience and expertise make it possible for her to set a clear expectation of what the transaction process will entail and deliver on those expectations. In my professional opinion you won't find a better realtor anywhere"

"Selling your first home can be such an intimidating adventure, but Carlene made it feel so easy and smooth, guiding us through each step. She really goes the extra mile to separate our house from the rest. We have been very happy with the job she has done and will tell all our friends!"

"My first agent lasted one day as he never showed up for our appointment. I saw Carlene's name on a sign in front of a house I was interested in and called the number and she met me within an hour. Her professionalism mixed in with her dedication in finding you a "Home", not just a house, seperates her from the rest of the competition. We looked at numerous houses before I found my "Home" and Carlene was great about keeping my spirits up when at times it looked like I was not going to find what I was after. Not only did she see the sale through, she worked closely with my lender as well in finalizing the deal. I cant imagine "Buying or Selling" a property without her being on my team."

"As a family relocating from another state, we relied heavily upon Carlene's expertise of the real estate market/trends, Eastside area, neighborhoods and schools. She was very thorough in her explanations and kept us informed of details, changes and probabilities. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, but she also invested her time in getting to know us as individuals - this is key to what takes her to a step above the rest. After the purchase of our house and until we relocated a year later, without any hesitation, she managed our property, oversaw renovations and contacted resources on our behalf - this was truly over and beyond our expectations! In addition to her professionalism and integrity, she is caring, giving and honest. We have and will continue to refer our friends and family to Carlene anytime they are ready to buy or sell their home or just starting to entertain the idea."

"Carlene helped us purchase our very first home. She was wonderful at helping us find what was right for us and at a comfortable price. Since the purchase of our new home, she has kept us updated on market activity and we always know she's a phone call away if we need her. We have recommended Carlene to many of our friends, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks so much Carlene!"

"When we were new the area, we found a home close to work. Carlene was the selling agent. Since we didn't have an agent, Carlene became our agent as well. Carlene went above and beyond to welcome us to the neighborhood. After a few years we had to relocate for work. My wife quickly called Carlene and asked her to represent us again. Carlene provided the staging plans which made the house look great. Carlene has continued representing us after the sell of the home to resolve some appliance warranty work for some cosmetic issues that occurred during the sale of the home. The new owner has indicated to me since the sell of the home that she really like Carlene and is glad to have a new friend."

"What can we say about Carlene? She is someone who came to us by chance, and is now someone who became a friend. She is honest, professional, and puts her clients first and foremost. I have referred people to her and they have never been disappointed. What more can we say? She is the best."

"Carlene helped me find my townhouse 4 years ago. She was patient and offered excellent words of advice. She told me, "No, it's not enough just to "like it"; you have to love it! And she said, "You'll just know it's "the one" when you walk in. And she was ABSOLUTELY right. In spite of the crazy decor of the prior owner and the chaotic state of the interior, I knew it was "my home" the minute I walked in. It's perfect! And I owe making the right choice to Carlene's knowledge, advice and patience. Plus, she's a blast to be with throughout the process!"

"Moving to the NW i was referred to Carlene Sandstrom by a professional peer who used her services the previous year to purchase his family home in Kirkland.
Her knowledge of the area(s) was invaluable to me and my family. Her commitment to spending weekends and evenings with us as we search for, and found our home appreciated!
We found Carlene to be a good communicatior, a great negotiator on our behalf and today, someone we choose to call friend.
Refering Carlene is a pleasure!"

"Beware, Carlene advetises other agents' listings as her own. Of the 16 'Featured Properties' on her website, none of them are her own listings. This may lead to mistaken perceptions about her actual achievements. These attempts to mislead potential clients must be the 'art of Web presence' she refers to in her bio."
Response: "Advertising other agent listings is common practice in Real Estate, and a gift agents share in assisting in the marketing of their seller's property. Having other agents "rave" about and "feature" your client's home is a "good" thing in our buisness and especially in a bit of a "changed" market.
Please note on my web site (CarleneSandstrom.com) that the "featured Properties" link was intended and created by Windermere Real Estate,it was created perfectly to allow & encourage other agents to share with buyers/sellers their personal and professional "favorite picks"!
I LOVE using this feature, and sharing my personal favorites with those who visit my site.
Living and loving in Kirkland for 30 years...it is my passion. Selling,& assisting all who are looking for their next "perfect" home in our wonderful city!
Please visit my site, check out my personal favorite homes here in Kirkland and if i can assist you and your family please contact me at WWW.CarleneSandstrom.com!
Happy Fall!"
