Testimonials

There are many things I can say about the high quality of service I provide to my home seller and home buyer clients, but probably none would be as credible as testimonials from some of my recent clients themselves.

So please take a moment to read the following testimonials. I hope they indicate my experience and integrity, as well as make it clear how much I enjoy helping people with their real estate needs.

I would be happy to email you additional testimonials if you are interested.

                                                      Above and Beyond

Jim made us feel extremely comfortable throughout the entire process. As first time home buyers this was very important. We always understood everything we were signing. He even showed up at the escrow company for us to sign our papers. Jim goes above and beyond.

                                                     A Reliable Realtor 

I sold my home and purchased a condo in West Seattle with the help and expertise of Jim Biava. This was a very difficult time for me, because I was on my own for the first time in almost 40 years. Jim was patient and took much time to explain everyting to my satisfaction. I recommend Jim to anyone that needs a reliable Realtor."

I appreciated that Jim didn't waste my time

Jim really stuck with me over a long 7 month search for the right house at the right cost. In particular I appreciated that he didn't waste my time showing me houses that just wouldn't work for my three children and me.

Jim Got Us the Home We Really Wanted

Three years ago following the birth of our 3rd child, my wife and I decided that were ready to upgrade to a larger house in West Seattle. What we thought would be pretty easy turned out to be a complete nightmare (I assure you there is no exaggeration involved here). We were paired with an inexperienced Realtor who wanted to be in-and-out of the transaction fast and really wanted us to 'hurry up and pick something'.

At wits end, we requested a new Realtor and got one. We quickly learned the value of a seasoned Realtor when we began working with Jim Biava. Jim was a breath of fresh air! We never felt like he was wasting our time and we never felt like he was even a bit pushy.

After boasting Jim's name to family friends we found that they had also used him to buy their first home 20 years ago. They had fond memories of Jim as well! When mentioning this to Jim he knew right who we were talking about and recollected details of the transaction as if it were yesterday!

Jim Biava helped us get the house several people advised 'could not be bought'. Jim did not give up and helped us get the house we really wanted. For this we are forever grateful to Jim. Jim knows the neighborhoods, the listings, the laws, the regulations, and has a plethora of contacts.

Out of all of this I have learned that ANYONE can sell you a home, but not just anyone knows what they are doing, and can actually make it a pleasurable experience. While I am not currently in the market for a home I would not hesitate to use Jim again in the future. We have already steered another friend, Jasmine Stark, his way. Jim also helped her make buying her home a pleasure.

Jim Biava is My Realtor

When I decided to buy my first home I wanted a Realtor with more than just a sales pitch. My friend, Lisa Vann, told me of their recent real estate nightmare turned pleasant experience (see above). They highly recommended Jim Biava.

Jim is the kind of Realtor that I appreciate, easy-going, straightforward, and professional. I was 48 when I bought my first house in 2003. Jim helped me through all of the unknowns, which seem daunting to a first-time homebuyer. Better yet, he found my dream home around the corner from my best friends, who I referred to Jim. And during my recent refinance, he went the extra mile and helped me as a courtesy, making sure all the numbers were in order so I had some peace of mind with the whole process. Jim provides integrity with a personal touch and a reassuring smile.

I've worked with Jim on my last 3 home sales and find his knowledge of real estate, especially the Seattle market, to be valuable. His responsive dedication makes a real difference. Even under tight timelines, he always delivered on time. Jim is easy to work with. I appreciate his friendly, yet professional demeanor. I value our relationship as an agent, and now as a friend.
