“WORK HARD & BE NICE TO PEOPLE”

Kathie Salvadalena

YOUR SNOHOMISH LISTING BROKER

Thank you for visiting my website; I am happy you are here. I have lived in the state of Washington all my life, except time spent living in Hawaii earning my Registered Nurse degree. Even with the beauty of Hawaii, nothing beats living in the Pacific Northwest and that is why I call Snohomish my home. As a local resident, I not only work in Snohomish – I live here as well.  Specializing in the Snohomish market  has always been my focus from day one. It allows me to bring specific knowledge of our local market & pricing, schools, businesses, and the ins and outs of our beautiful surroundings to my clients. Being  a full time Managing Broker + Certified Relocation Specialist with over 14 years experience, has helped me craft a distinctive style that makes your home stand out among the rest and sell quickly. Beautiful marketing pieces with high definition professional photography, aerial photography, aggressive selling strategies, up-to-date technology, social media exposure & superior customer service are just part of what is offered to ALL HOMES + ALL PRICES. As an Accredited Staging Professional, it is my goal to stage & style your home with a personal touch for magazine worthy photos. Staging your home is a complimentary service as part of your listing package and personalized marketing plan. I recognize and value the trust my clients place in me and I strive every day to exceed your expectations. One thing I know about myself is that my passion for working hard moves me to always give 100% – no matter what life brings my way.

Kathie whole heartedly helped us from the beginning to the end. She was someone I followed for a year through Instagram before we decided to work with her. She came into our home with such a sense of composure and was well prepared . She shared all her current and precise details on the local market  and we felt safe. We knew we could trust her judgement. She has so many years of experience and we knew we where in good hands with her. Selling and buying at the same time is so extremely stressful but she talked me more then once “off the edge”, she took all stressful times and calmed every situation on our side and our buyer/seller’s side on both transactions ! Not a lot of people can do that and that’s what sets her apart from the rest! Anyone who says “Anyone can be a Realtor” has NO idea what they are talking about! You need years of experience across the board to be successful and she does it ALL with such grace! Now we know it can be very expensive selling and buying, with that being said “You get what you pay for”. We where buying our DREAM home and selling a home that we put our blood, sweat and tears in and nothing was going to mess that up! When your life depends on it you go with the most trusted person and she had our lives in her hands and we know how blessed we are to have worked with her!!! She is a dear friend for life now!!!!! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!!!!Lauree T.(April 2020)

“I have nothing but positive things to say about Kathie! During our first meeting, she listened to my hopes for a new home and my reservations about selling my current home. She provided sound advice regarding easy ways to increase my list price, and with her exceptional staging and marketing skills, my home sold for full asking within four days. Kathie found me the perfect place right in the heart of Snohomish and I couldn’t be happier!I appreciated Kathie’s quick responses to my emails and texts throughout the buying and selling process. She made me feel like I was her only client! Throughout the negotiation and closing process, Kathie went above and beyond my expectations, double checking every detail. If you want a realtor that is knows the market, how to stage a house to sell for top dollar, and truly listens to your dreams for the ideal home, Kathie is the perfect choice!”   (February 2020)Kelly S. 

We were hesitant to work with a realtor at all going into selling our home, as both my wife and I have a pretty strong DIY mentality when it comes to just about everything in our life. However, when we met with Kathie, we were ultimately sold on her ability to maximize the process for our home sale. And we could have never imagined how well the process ended up going. Because of her local knowledge and network, we were able to sell our house within a day of listing during a time when the market had slowed. She did an amazing job staging the house, which led to super effective marketing. Everything from photos, to flyers, to details she thought to add when getting the house ready to sell were spot on. She was super responsive, supportive and went above and beyond at every point of the process for us. Writing this from the office in my new home, which is something I likely wouldn’t doing if it weren’t for her help, makes me even more grateful for the decision we made to partner with Kathie. Easily one of the best decisions we’ve ever made as homeowners.” John C.

We have nothing but great things to say about Kathie. She helped us buy AND sell our house in Snohomish and was nothing but professional, ultra-friendly, super knowledgeable, and just plain cool. We have had difficulty with agents in the past, but everything with her was smoothe sailing (so smooth we added an E). We love her!” Peter & Paige

“Kathie Salvadalena lives in Snohomish and understands the local market, which was important to me. I noticed that she had million dollar listings as well as entry level ones, which meant that she had a broad base of experience. I knew that I would have to move in order to finish some upgrades on my house and I followed Kathie’s suggestions in order to accomplish those tasks. Staging was important as my house would be empty. Kathie staged my house beautifully then contacted her aerial drone photographer. Their collaboration resulted in shots from land, air, and the waterside of my house. The photos were fabulous and made a spectacular online presentation.

Once we went live I received a full price offer in nine days. Closing took a while. Kathie worked through many hurdles and last minute delays as their communication with her was often less than timely. Negotiation isn’t always about price, as I reflect on Kathie’s thoroughness in keeping the process moving along, while keeping me in the loop. Kathie is an educated professional with integrity and strength. She is well connected, a design pro, tenacious, but always respectful and kind. Looking for a great agent? Look for Kathie Salvadalena!”  Karen
