Answer Details

If you’re looking to sell a luxury home in Seattle, here are **three standout agencies** with strong reputations in the high-end market. Let’s cut through the fluff so you know where to start. --- ## 1. Realogics SIR       **Why they’re worth your attention:** * Their luxury arm is strongly established: the brokerage serves the Greater Seattle area and is explicitly focused on high-end listings. ([Realogics SIR][1]) * One of the firm’s star brokers, Moira Holley, co-founded Realogics SIR and is a member of the invitation-only Sotheby’s luxury broker forum. ([moirapresents.com][2]) * If your property is unique (waterfront, architecturally distinct, ultra-luxury), they have the network and presentation to match. **Best for you if:** your home falls on the higher tier (think custom architecture, prime waterfront, etc.) and you want premium marketing. **Heads-up:** Because they’re focused on luxury, expect top-tier service—but also that top-tier expectations around presentation, staging, and costs. --- ## 2. The Agency Seattle       **Why they’re worth your attention:** * Their site emphasizes representation of a global portfolio of luxury homes, including methods for new development, boutique residences and ultra-high-end markets. ([theagencyre.com][3]) * Their branding brings an international feel—useful if you want to tap outside of just the local Seattle crowd. **Best for you if:** your property has broad appeal or you’re comfortable aiming for global exposure and high-end positioning. **Heads-up:** With global branding comes potentially higher service bills and perhaps less deep local neighborhood specialization than a boutique local firm. --- ## 3. Ensemble PNW       **Why they’re worth your attention:** * They specialize in luxury Seattle homes across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Queen Anne, Ballard, Columbia City. ([Ensemble PNW][4]) * Boutique-feel brokerage—their model is collaborative and client-centric. **Best for you if:** you have a luxury home in a premium Seattle neighborhood (not necessarily waterfront or mansion scale) and you want local, boutique service. **Heads-up:** They’re smaller scale than the national/global brands—so you might want to ask about their marketing budget, outreach, and how many luxury homes they’ve sold recently. --- --- ### What you should ask when you talk to them * **What is your recent luxury home (≥ $2M or your target price) sales volume in Seattle?** Be sure the firm is active in *your* price tier. * **What is your marketing plan for a luxury listing?** High-end photography, drones, international outreach, staging? * **How do you price such homes in the current Seattle luxury market?** Note: market is softening in parts, so pricing aggressively matters. * **What are your fees and how are they structured for luxury listings?** Premium service often means higher cost. * **Can you show me client references / case studies?** Especially for sellers of luxury homes. --- If you like, I can pull together **a list of 5–10 additional luxury-specialist agencies** in Seattle (with contact info, specialties, etc.).
