Sandy Chin has been my real estate agent for decades. We recently had him find a buyer for our Bellevue house. As usual he did a fantastic job from start to finish and we ended up selling the house above the asking price within 5 days of listing it. Sandy is friendly, responsive to our needs, extremely knowledgeable, and is very comfortable negotiating on our behalf. If the need should ever arise we would use him again as our realtor and we enthusiastically recommend him to others in need of a good honest realtor.

Through all the highs and lows of the market and months of searching for our "perfect" home, we appreciated Sandy's patience and understanding. Sandy always made himself available for us, especially last minute and/or at the most inconvenient times. Sandy really understands what it means to a buyer when they do ultimately find the home they've been looking for. Not only did we find a home but we found a loyal friend and would not hesitate to recommend him. Thanks Sandy!

Sandy is a remarkable agent and person. That's why this is our third home and why he's our forever agent. This round, he helped us navigate buying in Seattle when it's hot and selling in a market downturn. He thought deeply about our goals and helped us chart a path and get a good result, solving problems and bringing in experts as we went. You would think we were the most important people in the world given the work and care he showed us daily. Top notch - thank you Sandy!

Sandy worked hard, gave great advice, always offered his help, responded quickly and well, and always followed up appropriately. He has earned my future business also.

Sandy knows the market well and was a pleasure to work with. We followed his advice which lead to our selling our home in a week at over asking price. Highly recommend!

Sandy was incredibly thorough and diligent in supporting our search for our forever home. When we continued to not find exactly what we wanted, he found a house off market that was everything we were looking for and helped us make a compelling offer. Now we finally have the home I see raising us our kids, and seeing our grandkids come visit. Thank you Sandy!

This home-sale transaction was the third time Sandy has assisted us with a real estate transaction this year. We are beyond impressed with his ability to guide sellers through the process of selling a house. He has great attention to detail, knows what needs to be done at all stages of the process, understands how to get maximum sale value - and, is fun to work with. He made the process of selling an out-of-town home very simple for us.

Sandy was highly recommended to us.
I am so glad we had him for our agent.
We have bought and sold a lot of properties over the years with a lot of agents and he has been the best. Totally professional and focused on selling on our home.
Thank you Sandy

We began working with Sandy in February of this year. My boyfriend and I are first time home buyers and didn’t really understand very much about the housing market, or homes in general. When we began working with Sandy, we didn’t have the money for a down payment quite yet. Despite that, Sandy kept us motivated by sending us home listings and taking us on tours to get a feel for what we really wanted. At the start of this process, Sandy explained that, when we walk into “our” house, we’ll know it. Once we finally had enough for our down payment, the search became more intense and rigorous. We were living in the Seattle area, but searching for homes up north in Lake Stevens. Sandy drove over an hour there and back, sometimes twice a week for us. He was very knowledgeable, giving us insight on both the small and big picture details. He was always looking out for our best interest and made it clear that his intentions were to make sure we ended up in a home we love without having to bend over backwards, despite the competitive nature of today’s market.This ultimately led to us finding our dream home, in the location we wanted, with all the bells and whistles we were looking for. This is not say we didn’t lose out on some offers, we definitely did! But Sandy took what could have been a very stressful situation, and turned it into something encouraging, fun ,and magical. It makes me happy to know that other people will be able to have this experience with Sandy as well. You are amazing, Sandy!!

If I could give 1 million stars to this review I would!
Sandy Chin is an absolutely amazing true professional. He has been the best realtor my wife and I have ever worked with. He spent countless hours, days, nights, and weekends, searching for the perfect home for us in a very competitive market. He showed us more than 50 homes and he never blinked an eye.
He initially showed us 25+ homes, ranging in price, style, location, and overall value during our first weekend together. He gathered an incredible amount of information from this visit and then became incredibly selective in showing us future properties. He listened to our needs, offered suggestions on things to consider, and strategized ways to create competitive offers.
Sandy is your go-to realtor in the Issaquah-Sammamish-Seattle area. If you want someone to walk you through the process, listen to your needs, offer you professional guidance, not be afraid to be aggressive on your behalf, and find you your perfect home, reach out to him.
I am certain that there are great realtors in Washington, but I am confident that he is the best!
