I was a first time home buyer and went to Sunny since she had an office near me and had recent sales in my area. I got a good vibe and she seemed to figure out pretty quickly what kind of home I wanted. She and her husband took me around to several interesting houses over the course of a month and a half.
I quickly valued her opinion since she would point out hard-to-see positive aspects and would readily point out things about houses that made them a terrible buy. She never pushed anything, which was something I was a little worried about when I first started meeting real estate agents. In fact, for most homes we'd visit, Sunny would downright say she disliked it and would walk through all the reasons why (overvalued for the location, hard to remodel in the future, etc). She clearly had experience with remodeling, plumbing, design, and just about everything I don't know about real estate. During two inspections she pointed out some things that the inspector had missed.
She found me a fantastic house that hit a good price point and is wonderful all around. I was happy with her responsiveness and her (and her assistant's) great work closing. I had experienced a snag with the lender, as seems to happen a lot, and she passed all the paperwork around to extend the closing date without me having to worry much about it.
Her rates were comparable to other agents I looked at and based on my experience it was worth it.

Things appraisers cannot do, VA loans or any appraisal for a loan UNLESS your lender specifically said they want you to get an appraiser. We also don’t survey land, or do personal property such as art/jewelry. Hopefully that helps! We get a lot of questions in that regard.
"Candice was very knowledgeable and did a great job finding comps. My goal was to price my home for a correct listing price. I have access to the MLS so I should have been able to price my home but I wanted an unbiased opinion. It was great to confirm what I had suspected (I am biased toward my own home so I didn't want that to get in the way)."

FAQs for real estate service projects in Black Diamond, WA
Yes, hiring a real estate agent is worth it. Many homeowners make the mistake of trying to sell their homes by themselves, thinking that they’ll save money on the commission, but what they save on the commission, they very often pay for in frustration and concessions on the sale price. Hiring a real estate agent to handle the sale of your home not only makes the process far easier and takes the burden off of you, but most homeowners get more for their homes when going through an agent because of the marketing and salesmanship they bring to the table.
Real estate agents work on commission, so the cost of hiring an agent will depend on the cost of the home you’re buying or selling. The listing contract should include information about the commission for both agents, which is usually 6 percent of the sale price in total or 3 percent per side. With an average national home value of around $440,000, the typical commission per agent is $13,200. However, you won’t pay this total out of pocket. Instead, the commission comes out of the sale price of the property.
Interviewing real estate agents is the best way to find the right person for the job. Consider asking the following questions to find the best agent for you:
How will you show my property?
Will you do open houses to market my home?
How will you handle dual agency (representing the buyer and you as the seller)?
Should I make repairs to my home before listing?
Will you get professional photos taken of my home?
What is the best price you think we can get for my property?
How long do you expect the sale to take?
You don’t legally need a real estate agent as a buyer, as you can represent yourself, but you should always hire an agent as a home buyer. A professional real estate agent will have access to local MLS services to find homes that meet your criteria and needs, can connect you with other professionals—like a mortgage broker and real estate attorney—you’ll need for the purchase, and can often negotiate a better price for your home to help save you money. Plus, as the buyer, your agent’s commission comes from the seller’s proceeds from the sale of the home.
