It is without hesitation that I recommend the real estate services of Dale Bradbury. Dale served us between January and March of 2001 when we listed and purchased our homes.

Dale is a professional in every sense of the word and we felt that throughout our dealings with him that we were being very capably represented. Dale was prompt to return phone calls…is reliable and follows up on what he says he’s going to do…made us feel secure that the transaction deadlines were always met. He was able to help us negotiate through some difficult situations during the process…offering us an array of solutions from which to choose.

Above all, Dale thoughtfully understood our needs in the marketplace and saw to it that: 1.) we met our goals on the sale of our home, and 2.) bought the best house we could within our budget.

p.s. Dale… sorry this is such a long time in getting to you. I pre-dated the letter, sorry though that you haven’t had use of it… thanks again, you did a great job and I meant every word I said.

Regards,
Dennis & Mary Mekkers

We'd like to commend Dale for his awesome performance in getting our father's home sold. It's been a long and stressful process and Dale as guided us every step of the way.

Because my sisters and I had to transition our father into assisted care… his home had to be sold as quickly as possible without us having to do any of the repairs that were needed. Even though we went through 5 offers, Dale was always focused on getting the value out of the sale. We ended up meeting the goal that we had set right from the beginning and without putting any money out of pocket prior to closing.

As I had power of attorney, Dale guided me through the process…was diligent about keeping me informed… returned all my calls promptly and dealt with my attorney all the way through closing. He worked so well with the other agents we even received another offer from the same agent who was working with a second customer… I understand this is very rare.

I'd definitely recommend Dale as a competent and diligent realtor who can get the job done.

May 2002,

We are writing this letter to express our appreciation to Dale Bradbury for the great job he did in assisting us with the purchase of our home in Covington, WA. We would like whoever reads this to know that Dale went above and beyond the call of duty at a time when we were frustrated and needed help.

We were closing on the sale of our home and time was running out to find our next home. I first spoke to Dale in the morning and told him about our situation and what we were looking for. He met with us that day in his office to plan things out and we spent the next day touring the homes we that we had selected. While I was away on business, Dale kept me informed by emailing pictures of a home we were interested in and showing Sandy homes while I was gone.

When I returned, we spent the day looking at the new inventory and reviewing others that we were most interested in. Once we decided on a home, Dale guided in writing up the offer and assisted us in negotiating the agreement at a good price and with the terms we needed.

We were pleased with our buying experience and Dale made us feel comfortable with the process, explaining the how the contract and addendums worked along with our options. He kept to the timelines once we had a agreement and kept us fully informed along the way. It is obvious that Dale is very good at what he does and we would feel confident in having him represent us again for our real estate needs.

We would encourage anyone looking for professional real estate services with an easy, "can-do" approach, to use Dale.

Dear Dale,

We would like to thank you for the professional and personalized service that you gave to us in selling our home in Kent. The listing presentation you gave us along with the power behind the John L. Scott Real Estate was very detailed, down to earth and true to work that you did.

When you suggested we re–list our home at a higher price than when it came off the market without selling with another company… we were a little skeptical… but persuaded. We would never have guessed that within one week we would have not one offer on the table, but two. Since you were presenting one of the competing offers from one of your buyers, we appreciated you having another experienced agent to guide us in the multiple offer situation to ensure that we were properly represented.

Your hard work did not stop there. You continued to keep us informed when each formality was completed, not to mention also have to schedule the home inspection and appraisal with our tenant that was still occupying the home.

Once again, thank you for giving US the opportunity to have YOU as our real estate professional.

Sincerely,
Tim & Lisa Everson.

This letter is in recommendation of Dale Bradbury as he served Jenean Nicholson as her realtor through the Fall of 2004.

I am Ken Cooper, a long–time friend of the Nicholson family and business partner of Jenean's brother Ike. As I was most involved with the two transactions dealing with Dale, I'm the primary contributor to this letter but both Ike and Jenean join me in applauding Dale's excellent service during these many weeks.

As Ike and I live in Arizona, Dale was kind enough to help me, via phone calls, emails and digital contracts to put together the two transactions on behalf of Jenean. Because I was helping financially with Jenean's purchase and had to travel to Seattle to deal with that, Dale met me at the airport… in addition to providing guidance and expertise regarding the purchase.

Above all, I should point out that Dale received no compensation at all on the purchase.of the mobile home that Jenean ended up buying. The mobile was not listed in the MLS…however out of all the listings Dale showed Jenean, because it best served her needs, it was the right one for her and Dale received no compensation at all on this purchase.

On Jenean's listing, Dale provided suggestions, support and adice to both Jenean and myself, so we could empty the house as soon as possible in order for Dale to get it on the market. Of course Dale provided very capable guidance and follow–through to get the house sold and closed…

In summary, we were all more than pleased with Dale Bradbury. Dale had the sensitivity, skills and knowledge necessary to get us through a tough situation… we'd highly recommend him for any real estate services you might need.

Sincerely,
Ken Cooper

We are writing this letter to let anyone who reads this to know how much we have enjoyed having Dale as our agent. First of all, before meeting Dale we'd had experiences with other agents and being business owners and contractors, we understand what it's like to be in business. We've also learned how frustrating it can be to get poor service, lack of follow– up and unreturned phone calls. Not just with agents, but all sorts of people in the service industries.

Dealing with Dale has been a refreshing experience and has restored our faith in people who work on commission. Obviously realtors don't make money unless they sell something…we have always felt Dale has been totally unattached to making sales with us. Although we have done several of our transactions for us, we've also had to rescind several deals involving fixers or feasibilities studies and these were very time consuming…Dale always gave us advice as if it was his own money at stake….where else can you find someone who does that?

… communication was also important to us… usually he'll answer his phone right away or he'd return the call as soon as he could. If we asked him to track down some information, we knew that when he called back it would be with the answer.

If you are reading this, you should at least interview Dale before make any decision on hiring an agent. It's nice to have someone who is truly working for your best interests and not his own.
