Get to Know Me

Navigating the dynamic terrain of Seattle’s housing market requires having a dedicated expert on your side. It's my honor to serve as a trusted guide to both buyer and seller clients.

Since moving here in 1980, I have watched Seattle transform from a small city known for its aerospace industry to a world-leading destination for business, tourism, and living. This deep well of local knowledge and appreciation of the Puget Sound area informs and enhances every client relationship.

Whether you’re a new-to-Seattle buyer or have lived here for a while, my goal is to help find and secure the right-fit home for your needs and stage of life. I began working on houses in the late ’80s, doing full remodels in Seattle’s Central and South End neighborhoods with a local contractor before buying and remodeling a 1906 Farmhouse in Madrona with my wife Annabelle. I tap into that experience to help my clients see the potential in every property, and I work across all price points.

When I’m collaborating with my sellers to prepare a home for market, my years of home remodeling and reconstruction experience inform the process of assessing where clients will achieve the greatest return on investment. Buyers’ needs and wants shift with the times and it’s important to work with a real estate agent who understands current trends and can help you achieve your desired outcome on a timeline that works for you.

Outside of work you’ll find me scuba diving in the bracing waters of Puget Sound, hiking or skiing in the Cascades, or serving up a tasty meal to friends.

I love the Pacific Northwest and strive to help my clients enjoy and appreciate this area as much as I do!

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David sold our house for us and knocked it out of the park! This was our first home and sale and David delivered the high-touch service we required. He provided sound advice up front, was available for our many questions, and even rolled his sleeves up to help with the work. His recommendations on readying the house, price, and timing were well-researched and proved invaluable. David kept us focused on t...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

From start to finish, David made the process of buying a home an absolute breeze. He is a pleasure to work with, and he helped get us into our dream home by moving quickly and working with the resources we had available.

— Tony H.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I met David by chance at an open house. It was my lucky day as David did a tremendous job of finding exactly what I was looking for. We bid on at least 4 properties until we finally found one in the area and a price range that was agreeable to me. All through the process David was there for me from beginning to end. I was kept informed throughout and he did an outstanding job. In fact, when I get ready t...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David has been my agent for both selling and purchasing properties. He was thoughtful and attentive to our needs. He is a true professional and made us feel as if we were his only clients. He would be my first call if I have any real estate needs.

— W. Dummitt

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David has all the qualities I would hand-pick if I could design a realtor. He was very patient with us, honest, direct, easy to be around, and knowledgeable about Seattle and the surrounding areas. He came all the way to West Seattle, despite the broken bridge, several times a week if we wanted to look at houses. He helped us navigate the entire process; even things that weren't necessarily his job (i.e....

— Camilla K.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We flew into Seattle to look for a condo home, specifically in a complex we found on the internet that appeared to meet our needs. David, who we had met previously, jumped into action when we told him we were coming. He visited the condo complex, talked to management, examined several units, and collected written information on our proposed condo and several others he thought might be interesting. The ne...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David was fantastic. He took the time to walk us through the details of the neighborhood and provided great perspective. It was the best conversation we have had with an agent to-date. We trusted him and didn't feel like we were being sold to.

— Lucinda W.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

In full disclosure, I knew David Todd before he was our realtor, so I had huge expectations. I expected his amazing level of conscientiousness, patience, and eye for style. What I didn't anticipate was his outstanding level of knowledge and communication ability about all things real estate. We were cautious buyers and David was so effective in helping us navigate the intricacies of home buying as well a...

— Andy J.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David was extremely helpful through the entire home-buying process. This was our first time buying a home and David guided us through and answered any and every question we had. His impeccable responsiveness and thorough explanations made everything flow smoothly. He has a very high attention to detail and helped us find some potential sewer issues early in the home we purchased, which let us negotiate t...

— Gino C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David was great! For full disclosure, I met David through Scuba diving long before I considered buying a house. I got to see for years how hard he worked for his real estate clients, and when I became one, it turned out that he works even harder for people than I previously thought and we were pretty high maintenance! He was responsive to emails, calls, and texts. He was knowledgeable and always followed...

— Heidi W.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David has been a pleasure to work with and get to know. David was able to help find us a house in a neighborhood we love, make a competitive winning offer, and negotiate closing terms within a month of seeing the unit. At the same time, David did not pressure us to jump at anything we were not comfortable with respected our wishes, and even dealt with a lot of indecisiveness on our part. David was able t...

— N. Garcia

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David was incredibly thorough and it was clear how invested he was in helping us find not just any home, but the home that was a perfect fit for us. He worked incredibly hard, and was responsive to all of our questions (we were first-time home buyers so there were lots!) One of the best things about working with him was how available he made himself, and how much he prioritized getting us into homes we t...

— Elsa S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Dave was a pleasure to work with and made the process of buying a house much less stressful, and more enjoyable with his sense of humor that puts one at ease. He was very responsive and I always felt that he had my interests in mind. Thank you, Dave.

— Butch L.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We met David while touring independently at the very start of our house hunt. He was showing a house in West Seattle and we struck up a conversation that won us over. David showed deep local knowledge and struck me as honest, easy to work with, and low-stress. Throughout the subsequent house hunt and home purchase, he proved to be all of these things, as well as being very responsive and a skilled agent....

— Nicholas R. & Molly S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David helped us find our "Garden Home" in Gig Harbor. It took several months and several attempts; I think we broke his record for most miles driven looking at homes. He did it all with professionalism and a great sense of humor. He is highly responsive and is able to connect you with other professionals if the need arises. Wouldn't hesitate to work with him again.

— Kirsten T.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I am so glad that we had a chance to work with David. As first-time homeowners, we don’t have other realtors to compare to, but David was beyond our expectations. He was extremely helpful and friendly. He was always there for us throughout the entire process. He responded within an hour or so every time we contacted him. He was always on time for our scheduled appointments and kept us up-to-date on any m...

— Lim J.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I recently purchased a house in Seattle with Dave Todd as my agent. He was able to present several potential options within the general aesthetic and price range we discussed. Dave helped me position the most complete and attractive offer, ultimately winning the bid under my ceiling. I highly recommend David Todd as a real estate agent.

— John S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I have not met a person who is so happily dedicated to helping folks find the right home as David Todd. In this fast-changing and competitive market, he continually surprised me with his upbeat attitude and perseverance even as we changed our minds about where our new home was to be. He never wavered in his dedication to us and for us. From negotiations through inspections and financing, David made sure ...

— Shawn H. & Robert M.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

David was exactly the thoughtful, dedicated agent we needed in finding and closing on our dream house. He navigated us through visiting many houses, making multiple offers and one very bumpy closing.

— Rogers C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I was very satisfied with David and all his work. He is a hard worker and makes the whole process go as smoothly as possible. He also went above and beyond my expectations of a realtor in multiple situations (so thanks for that). I greatly appreciate all the help he did.
