** Linda Bagley and the entire staff at Special Agents Realty are that unique combinations that make for a successful real estate experience for all parties. ** They are intelligent, know the market, listen to what you want, and helpful beyond belief. I would add that they are the most patient people I have ever dealt with, but that might suggest that I can be difficult! If you are considering a houseboat purchase or sale, skip the rest, go directly to Linda Bagley and Special Agents. They know the houseboat market better than anyone and they will find what you want. I went to Linda wanting to purchase a boat slip and build my own houseboat. There were none to be had at a reasonable price. So, instead, Linda found the perfect existing houseboat and we were able to close on what I hope will be my last home purchase.

Thank you Linda and Kevin for helping us find our dream home! We literally visited 60 houses before we found the perfect home. Special Agents Realty really gives the personal service that you can’t find anywhere else (like driving us to all 60 houses in the winter!). They were constantly on the lookout for the kind of place we wanted and because of them we were able to make an offer on our dream home before there was even a “for sale” sign in the yard! ** We will definitely seek out the expertise of Special Agents Realty for our next home sale and purchase, but for now we are enjoying our wonderful new house! ** Thanks again Linda, please look forward to our house-warming party invite soon! Our dream home!

Thank you Special Agents Kevin and Linda! We were young and knew nothing about home buying when we started looking for our first home – but in a seller’s market you helped us get a great deal and mortgage on the house we both loved! When we recently had to sell, it was a tough market due to the housing crisis – prices dropping and homes sitting and our expectations were low. Yet we still sold our home in two weeks and for a great price. ** People tell us we’re “lucky,” but we know which great agents are behind our luck! ** And we know who to call the moment we move back to Washington. Thanks again!

“Special Agents Realty does a fantastic job on finding a home that is perfect for you. ** They are a type of Realtor that tries to figure out exactly what you want by sending you a huge list of listings, exploring them, and then slowly narrowing down based on what your interests and your given price range. ** What is unique about Special Agent Realty is their patience and attention to detail. They aren’t going to rush you through the process of finding a perfect home. However they are going to remember exactly what you want so it will be hard to resist purchasing a home that is perfect for you. It doesn’t stop there! They also help you try to find the best mortgage broker to get an amazing interest rate, help with negotiation of your home, and will address all your questions/concerns along the way. I bought my home through Special Agent Realty. Had a fantastic experience and I highly recommend them. These are the most genuine Realtors in the area and you can’t go wrong giving them a call.” Nate B. of Kirkland, WA Best Realtor in the Area!

Kevin & Linda, I just wanted to thank you guys for helping Seid find a place. He was very excited when he showed off his new house key yesterday. He complimented both of you for your great service and how you guys made him feel about the whole home buying experience. He told me more than once how lucky he is to have you guys. I knew he would feel that way because you guys are special. I will forward my long time friend (Jerry) since Jr High School to you who is married with 2 kids and has been renting a house in West Seattle forever. ** It is so hard these days to find the customer service you guys give. Seid felt the same way Ronna and I did and that it is genuine coming from you and Kevin. ** Talk to you soon, Oliver Director of Operations

** Great experience on buying my 1st house! ** They are great people, they are responsible, very professional, and keep you 100% aware of what is going on and your options. I would definitely recommend anyone to do business with them.” Elbio & Vania of Redmond, WA

Thanks Linda! After dealing with multiple real estate agents throughout my past, I have to say Linda has to be the best. She really knows the ins and outs of dealing with difficult buyers and would not turn into a “yes” man until she knew we had the right house for us. ** I would highly recommend Linda and have already used her to buy my mother her dream house.**  Arturo

A friend recommended Linda to me - she was fantastic, emailed me back right away and we set up a meeting quickly. I was a first-time home buyer and she was so patient in explaining the process to me - **  I LOVE my house! ** Bought a Single Family home in Wallingford, Seattle, WA.

Linda set my husband and me up with our dream home. During the process, she and Kevin were extremely helpful in helping us negotiate the process of getting a loan, making an offer, and getting all the necessary paperwork filed. ** They were both extremely knowledgeable, and I can't imagine a better real estate team! **   Bought a home in Greenwood, Seattle, WA 98103.

** Linda and Kevin know the Seattle houseboat market like no one else! ** In a complex legal environment for Seattle waterfront living, it is important to get the best possible advice concerning houseboats. Linda was super responsive throughout the entire sales process. We were very pleased! Sold a Multi Family home in 2012 in Westlake, Seattle, WA.

Bought a Single Family home in 2011 for approximately $1.975M in Magnolia, Seattle, WA.  We have bought three properties with the help of Linda and her husband. ** They are as nice as they are knowledgeable. ** Many times they went out of their way to accommodate our strange schedules and took the time to explain strategies to us. ** If you are interested in purchasing land-based properties in the Seattle area, they are fantastic. However, if you are interested in buying water-based dwellings they will blow your mind! ** They know EVERYTHING about houseboats, floating homes and house-barges. They are soon to get their yacht broker's licenses, too. One-stop-shopping!  Marta & Langdon

Dear Linda M., I’ve written this recommendation of your work to share with others. I have the good fortune of partnering with Linda to sell my current residence. **She is the consummate professional, an amazing resource and a tremendous agent.**  Linda approaches all my questions with an open mind, allows for me to think outside the box to create the best outcome for me and my needs. Linda is timely and offers a great value for her work. As a bonus, her amazing husband offers expert services also! Linda is very creative and understands the market 2nd to none. This is a tough market and I know that Linda has my best interests in mind. She is thoughtful and insightful and I know that when I get an offer, **Linda will do her absolute best and treat the buyer and their agent with respect also. I am grateful to have Linda as my agent…and a friend!”** Expert, High Integrity, Creative

We listed one home with Linda and Kevin, now (several properties later) work with them and Special Agents realty exclusively for very good reasons. their service is phenomenal – far beyond the expected, her ethics honest and upfront without question, she is friendly, professional, very detailed oriented and stays on top of all the details. They alert us to information and timelines important to making an investment or getting a good return on investments made. ** Whether we are buying or selling, we give Linda and Kevin our full endorsement without reservation! ** Mike & Patti

My husband and I have used Linda & Kevin for various real estate transactions for our personal homes and investment property over the past 5 years. I have found them to be knowledgeable, trustworthy and hardworking. **I am an experienced home buyer and they are the only ones I trust. I would recommend them to anyone. ** They are smart and on the top of their game always.

Whether you're buying or selling a houseboat, a slip, or both, Linda and Kevin bring a wealth of experience and expertise to the table. ** Few brokers even know where to begin when it comes to explaining the intricacies of the houseboat market or the liveaboard lifestyle, but Linda and Kevin are intimately familiar with both. Kevin and Linda are champions within the houseboat community (and beyond) for their tireless advocacy and promotion of this uniquely Seattle lifestyle.** Don't tread in these waters without Special Agents Realty at your side. Greg

** Linda & Kevin are the most professional and ethical realtors we have ever met. They are amazing.**  They helped sell my Dad's house (33 offers!!!), helped us buy our new house with many offers over our, and recently closed on our old house.  All along the way, they kept us informed about what we should do and went way above and beyond when it came to selling our two houses. ** Kevin is the financial wizard behind the scenes so there are no calling multiple parties to get an answer - one call is all it needs. ** We would not trade them for any amount of money - they are now like family! Bought a home in 2013 in Martha Lake, North Creek, WA 98012 Jim

Linda and Kevin, This is a long overdue testimonial for the incredible job you and Kevin did representing us in the sale of our house barge located on Lake Union. ** We had been trying to sell our "retirement home" for five years, first by ourselves and then through two other realtors.** Along you came offering your services when we had truly given up and somehow managed to put money in our pockets in just a few short months in this very difficult economy. Your experience living on a houseboat and your knowledge of financing along with your "I'll do everything to make this happen" attitude (always with a very pleasant demeanor) was what it took. Not only were we very pleased with the sale proceeds, we also were so happy with the two gentlemen who purchased it as it seems they will love her as much as we did. Thank you so very much. Bev & Dick
