Justin W. Richards

"I just have to say that Justin is a miracle worker in the area of short sales. My client would not have closed on her purchase without his exceptional knowledge and decisive work with the mortgage company. I would not move forward on any transaction that could possibly have issues without Justin’s involvement. Best Regards Claire Cassedy"

"April 26th, 2008 From: Dimo Kaloyanoff Bul. Patriarh Evtimii #5 Sofia, Bulgaria I am writing this letter as a recommendation for Justin Richards, Windermere East in Bellevue, WA, who recently represented me in a real estate transaction. I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Richards who facilitated a 1031 Tax Exchange I completed in March of 2008 after relinquishing an investment property my family held in Washington, DC since 1981. Mr. Richards was recommended to me by an immediate family member who had previously used his services. As a very conservative individual, I initially expressed concern over Mr. Richards’ young age and level of experience, but I decided to move ahead with the recommendation nevertheless. I was proven wrong about any and all concerns I previously had! Mr. Richards proved to be a highly skilled, knowledgeable, aggressive Realtor. He took care of my interests without me ever having to set foot in Seattle - communicating with me remotely and via my local representatives throughout the entire process. However, I felt like I was involved in all aspects of the transaction at all times, and was kept informed of all the details. Justin Richards provided invaluable advice as far as the most profitable scenario for my investment needs - location, type of property, and gave me feedback on all listings I had selected, and also adding many more listings which he had researched for me. He was also very patient while I was going back and forth trying to decide which property I was interested in. He was always pleasant, courteous, At the end of the day, I purchased a top-notch investment property which Justin was able to negotiate at a significant discount to me. I couldn’t be happier! The property was rented within 2 weeks of purchase. My only regret is I will not have the opportunity to work with Justin again, since I will not be purchasing any further properties in that area. However, I highly recommend him to anyone that will! Sincerely, Dimo Kaloyanoff"

"Re: Our experience working with Justin Richards, Realtor from Windermere East, Bellevue We have had the pleasure of working with Justin on several real estate transactions over the past one and a half years. As real estate investors, we often need the services of a qualified, reliable Realtor and Justin has time and time again proven to be a professional we can rely on. He has represented us in several sales of investment properties as well as in the purchase of our primary residence in July of 2007, first as a part of a Yarrow Bay Windermere team, then as an independent Realtor with Windermere East in Bellevue. He also represented us in a rental listing of one of our condo units in January of 2008. We keep bringing our business back to him because we know our needs will be taken care of, and we do not need to worry about the quality of representation we are getting. We find Justin to be an individual with proven integrity and demonstrated loyalty to his clients. He is always pleasant, always on time, always prepared. One feels important working with him because he gives you such personal attention and professional dedication. He has put up with our numerous whims and even some unreasonable requests, at the same time providing us with gentle guidance as to the direction his experience leads him to believe we should be taking. The results Justin produced for us were always outstanding. He never overlooked any details in a transaction and was always on top of things and one step ahead of everyone else involved. This has resulted in financial benefit for us as his clients, which makes us very happy, but most importantly, peace of mind that we are making the right moves. We look forward to our next real estate transaction with Justin! Daryl and Jana Downing, 206-240-7823 jana@janaiv.com"
