WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph Goldberg is an exceptional realtor who provided my husband and me with the best possible first home-buying experience. He provided us with excellent advice and was in constant communication. We always felt like we were a priority. Joseph is a brilliant negotiator and assisted us every step of the way. With his help, we closed on an amazing home in Queen Anne.

— Jamie G.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

After we moved away from Seattle, we kept our townhome as a rental. As years passed, it no longer made sense to keep the property, so Joseph Goldberg helped us to sell it. This was not just a house, it was our first joint purchase and a place where our children were born. So this was an emotional sale, and, at the end of the day, obviously a financial decision. Joseph was incredibly sensitive to all the ...

In short, he was always on our side working to make our investment property purchase as simple and s...

Bought and sold a single-family home in 2019 in Shoreline, WA. We had 3 transactions with Joseph so far, and I can say - there is no better agent in Seattle! Joseph is knowledgeable, and proactive, has incredible negotiation skills, and is always available for his clients.

— Buyer & Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph helped us buy a condo in Seattle. His experience and knowledge really made the buying process easier. Joseph provided us with a lot of relevant information and gave us good advice.

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We were just browsing for a possible investment property, so when few weeks later Joseph called us with a listing and explained that this was a terrific investment, we were obviously very skeptical. Joseph has lots of experience. He took the time to explain and put all income, expenses, potential capital gains, and possible exit strategies on a detailed spreadsheet for worst and best-case scenarios and w...

— Tova

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We recently completed our first apartment purchase with Joseph as my agent. Joseph is an experienced agent who has deep knowledge about the local real estate market. He was a valuable resource for us as we didn't have experience in buying a house, he took care of every aspect of the process, including inspection, and was able to negotiate a good discount for us. He is honest, responsive, and trustworthy....

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I would highly recommend working with Joseph to find your next home. After renting in Green Lake for a year, I was preparing myself to renew my rental agreement because I didn't think I'd be able to find anything in Seattle's competitive market before my lease expired. Joseph was able to help me find an amazing home in less than 3 weeks! Here are a few things that made my experience with Joseph stand out...

— Vensherrie C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

This is the second time we have worked with Joseph to buy a home. He successfully navigated us through the process of buying in Queen Anne and three years later in Green Lake. We also bought both homes under the asking price which is unheard of in Seattle. Joseph is available by text, email, and phone and responds to questions immediately. He will also contact the seller, builder, and loan agents if you ...

— Jamie G.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Prior to Joseph, I worked with three other realtors in the last few years both on the buy and sell side of the transaction. Many of them were professional and experienced, but Joseph is the only one who met my full expectations of a realtor. My expectations of my realtor are 1. To be an expert in their profession in understanding the market, purchase price, rental market, and be an effective negotiator 2...

— Tina

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I had a great experience working with Joseph. He went beyond his duty to find a great property in this competitive Seattle market when I was really losing hope.

Some of the great qualities Joseph possesses are: He is alway...

My wife and I live in Vancouver Canada. We are looking to buy a rental building in the Greenlake area of Seattle that we eventually will be moving into in a few years. We contacted Joseph Goldberg after we saw his name pop up online. On a trip to Seattle, we met with Joseph and he took us to view a few great buildings that he thought we would like. He gave us his view on each property and on the market o...

I recently bought a house in Seattle with Joseph as my real estate agent. Joseph has been in real estate in Seattle for a long time, and it shows through his intimate knowledge of neighborhoods, types of properties, market prices, and details of the purchasing process. He is a top-notch professional. Among many things I liked about Joseph, three stood out for me: 1. He is always available and responsible...

— Dan Z.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph was the reason I was able to buy a home first the first time, in a hugely competitive and aggressive market, within both a reasonable schedule and a limited budget. He was willing to give me time to tour a diverse sample of listings to figure out what I needed and what expectations I should have - he was very upfront about my options and engaged in adapting our search to my needs. I thought the ha...

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We were very lucky to connect with Joseph on a recent trip to Seattle. We were in town to find an apartment for our daughter who will be moving there in January. Looking at the high rental prices, we quickly changed gears to look at condos which seemed a better investment long-term. Joseph was great at helping us navigate a real estate market that we we not familiar with. He obviously knew his stuff! He ...

Recently completed our second investment property purchase with Joseph. Joseph is extremely professional and knowledgeable and was very effective in fine-tuning our needs and finding the right property for us (including visiting potential properties and expressing his honest opinion). This was super valuable as we could complete the entire process remotely. His experience came into play when extending th...

— Anner K.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We just bought our first house with Joseph, and totally happy that chose him as our real estate agent. Now Seattle real estate market is overloaded, and it's hard to buy a nice house that meets your expectations and works for your budget. And Joseph was really helpful because he could persuade the seller to sell the house to you. I think, for the Seattle market, it's the most important characteristic of ...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph has been extremely helpful in helping us understand the trade-offs of buying a property of different types (e.g. condo, duplex, etc.), and the differences between various Seattle neighborhoods.

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I recommend using Joseph as your Realtor, you won't be disappointed! Joseph helped me sell my Queen Anne condo, a very bittersweet and emotional thing for me personally.

He took ca re of everything and I really appreciated how he continually checked in on me just to make sure I was feeling good. He really wen...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph was a wonderful agent to work with and have on your side. He knows the Seattle market inside and out, which was helpful for us as we embarked on the journey to find our first home.

— Amit & Danielle

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Wow. That's the word I come up with when I think about the experience of working with Joseph to purchase a building. I've worked with many realtors over the years but have never met a realtor with Joseph's intelligence, integrity, shrewdness, accessibility, and willingness to work hard. The purchase was a complex transaction with lots of moving pieces. Joseph was always accessible and more than willing t...

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

An investing partner and I recently worked with Joseph on a rental property purchase. We were hugely impressed with Joseph's talent for real estate. My business partner and I had worked with other realtors in the past, but it became quickly apparent that Joseph was operating on a whole other level. His intimate knowledge of the local market, extensive experience as an investor himself, and sage advice we...

— Mike

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Bought a multi-family home in 2020 in Seattle, WA. Joseph is very knowledgeable in the Seattle market. He gives good advice and helps make the right decisions, but at the same time not put too much pressure on the client to move forward if they need to take some time or explore more options.

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph is driven and dedicated to his work and is a pleasure to work with. The house I ended up purchasing was not on my list of places to look at, as it was not within my budget.

He was always on time for appointments, very knowledgeable about the Seattle area and market, and had a lot of great tips to share. Thank ...

— Ayanna W.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Joseph helped me buy my first condo. I was referred to him through an online listing search engine. My transaction was straightforward but Joseph adeptly guided me through the process.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

For those of you looking to buy a home in the Seattle area. I'm sorry. The market is going absolutely insane right now in terms of high demand and low supply.

They were either exceedingly negative (e.g. you don't have enough ...

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I was under the impression that buying a house was a difficult process, but not when working with Joseph.

We recently used Joseph to help us purchase our first investment property in Seattle.

But where Joseph really exceeded our expectations is with his support post-deal. He assisted us with finding...

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My spouse and I have worked with several agents before we got to Joseph, with mixed results. In today's aggressive sellers market, we needed someone who knew the Seattle real estate market like the back of their hand, ultra-responsive to last-minute changes, and experienced in real estate negotiation tactics. Joseph is all that - and more. If you don't want to keep wasting your time on endless non-person...
