Justin Mellon

Real Estate Broker

Get to Know Me

You have a lot of choices when it comes to choosing a real estate agent. In addition to my knowledge and passion for the region, I bring a solid background in construction and real estate investment which informs and enhances every one of my client interactions. Whether you’re a buyer or seller, a first-time homeowner or seasoned pro, I welcome the opportunity to meet you, explain my services, and strategize your sale or purchase.
 

When Buying a Home

I see every client as a person who is making one of the biggest decisions they will make in this lifetime, and it’s my job to educate, relieve stress, and help them navigate the process. After you visit my website and check out my 5-Star Yelp and Zillow reviews, I hope you like what you see. The next step is for us to connect via phone or email and meet at a time that works for you.
 

When Selling Your Home

Pre-listing prep work and home assessment are a large portion of my business. I enjoy the creativity and strategy that goes into preparing a home for market, and my can-do attitude, contractor connections, and ability to get things done are what set me apart from other agents. When it’s time to sell your home, I’m happy to meet to discuss current market conditions, see your home’s unique features, and recommend cost-effective updates that will increase the value of your home. From our first contact to our initial meeting, I want to assure you I am a low-pressure, highly knowledgeable agent who is respected by clients and colleagues alike.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My husband and I just partnered with Justin to sell our condo and find our dream home. He was such a wonderful asset and ally on both ends that we feel extremely lucky to have found him. Initially, we would have loved to sell our condo over a year ago and move into a home. Due to another unit in our complex selling for such a low price, Justin helped us weigh the pros and cons of waiting a year before te...

— Jen P.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin and Andrew helped us every step of the way as we navigated the sale of our first house. They did extensive research so we could price the house appropriately and get it on the market as quickly as possible. They have a great network of resources, including photographers, painters, and stagers, who made our house look amazing. One of them was always available to answer our questions and keep things...

— Matt & Mindy

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin and Danny were fantastic to work with. It was very professional with a great deal of personal assistance! Good knowledge of the market and buildings, communication, and sense of humor!

— Kara & Sebastian

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin has been involved in 3 real estate transactions with me and has proven himself to be extremely knowledgeable on a wide range of real-estate related activity and comes with a deep network to get the most out of the transaction, including lenders, house-preparation no matter the task and even movers. Justin will get the best deal available in the marketplace and do so with the least amount of stress...

— Alex H.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We loved working with Justin and would highly recommend him as an agent. He was reliable, always quick to answer emails and phone calls, and provided a level of in-depth knowledge of properties in Phinney Ridge and the surrounding area that far exceeded our expectations. We worked with him over several months and he proved himself particularly useful in helping us to define the kind of house we wanted. W...

— Bryna & Peter

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I contacted Justin when I was looking to buy a house for the first time. I contacted him, because he was highly regarded on Yelp, and my experience working with him completely justified the strong reviews. He met with me soon after I contacted him, and he gave me a concise, but detailed overview of the home-buying process and how it relates to the Seattle market. He outlined strategies to improve my chan...

— John L.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin Mellon used his extensive local connections to find a house that fit me perfectly, then negotiated a fantastic deal that helped me to realize my personal dream of being a homeowner in the Ballard neighborhood. I am better off today financially and personally because of his expertise and integrity. I highly recommend this guy.

— Bryan S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

In the past 3 years, Justin has helped me purchase two homes in the Seattle area. That should say enough that I went back for his assistance with the purchase of my second home. Throughout both processes, his follow-through and communication were amazing. I felt that I was the only client he was working with in both cases. Justin goes above and beyond with assistance in any way from dealing with the mort...

— Wendy B.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I had a fantastic experience working with Justin. I was a first-time home buyer and I needed a lot of guidance. Here is the best part about Justin. He discouraged me from buying the first place I considered buying. It wasn't right for me, and though I was excited about it, he knew I would not have been happy there long term. He was honestly concerned about helping me find the best house for me, and he wa...

— Elizabeth H.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin made the process of becoming a first-time home buyer infinitely easier and more fun than I ever imagined it could be. We looked at many a condo before I found the one I felt excited and comfortable purchasing. From helping me make the best offer to talking to the other tenants to negotiating a complex loan, he was always available, supportive, and most of all patient. He even helped with the move ...

— Ghida S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I would recommend Justin to anyone because of the effort he puts into the process. Very few realtors will go the extra mile like him. We hired him because a friend described how helpful he was and how quickly he sold their home so we had high expectations. Justin met or exceeded our expectations in every area. His sincerity creates an environment of trust that is rare with transactions involving consider...

— Scott R.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I will definitely use Justin again when I buy my next house. He is honest and will not push you into a home to make a sale. He honestly wants what is best for you and your family. If the house is not right he will flat out tell you.

— Justin R.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My wife and I recently sold a house with the assistance of Justin Mellon after learning I would move for medical residency. He started by talking through the trade-offs between renting and selling considering the current market but was very forthright that either would be a good option financially, so it depended on our outlook and personalities. When we decided to sell he helped orient us to the big pic...

— Nate B.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We chose Justin as our agent after a glowing recommendation from trusted friends, and they were right on the money! We were looking for a rare type of house in a very specific neighborhood during a highly competitive market. Justin stuck with us month after month, walked us through many houses, watched carefully for new homes on the market, and gave us great advice on remodeling options. He was patient w...

— Amy H.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I wanted to take a few minutes to let you know what a great agent you have in Justin Mellon. Recently I had a listing in Maple Leaf that belonged to my brother-in-law and his wife. After he tragically passed away in February, I had the daunting job of putting it on the market. I say this because our family was already stricken with the loss of our mother and sister within the past year and emotionally, I...

— Seller

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I enjoyed working with Justin through the entire process of selling our house. He helped navigate a complex situation and greatly assisted in the process of getting the house ready for market by coordinating with painters, landscapers, and other contractors. Once the house was listed, he worked hard to show the house and we accepted a strong offer shortly afterward. Even in a strong sellers' market havin...

— Elliot

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We worked with Justin to sell our condo and buy a new house, and he was brilliant with both! We really appreciated how he took the time to get to know us and to figure out what we were looking for in a house. With his background in construction, he was very knowledgeable about aspects of the houses that we knew nothing about. He also prevented us from settling for a couple of houses that weren't right fo...

— Heather D.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin Mellon at Lake & Co was awesome. He was in constant contact with us during every step of the process, went with us to every meeting that we had with anyone regarding the home, brought us a billion boxes for packing, and on moving day rented a moving truck and moved us to our new house. Everything was done at our convenience, including late-night home tours and documents or paperwork at our place (...

— Chris & Lisa

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Thank you Justin for your efforts in the successful sale of my condo in Seattle. The condo was on the market for a year with no offers while being listed by another realtor. A friend of mine, who is in the real estate business, recommended that I switch to you and your company. You are everything that he said you would be.

— Don G.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

As a newcomer to Seattle, I had heard good things about Lake and Company but didn't have any personal recommendations for a particular agent. So I browsed the company's website read some testimonials, and decided to contact Justin Mellon because of his great reviews from clients, as well as his knowledge of carpentry and construction, and the impression that he really enjoys the process of matching someo...

— Robin G.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I have worked with Justin Mellon as my real estate professional three times now and would choose him again in a heartbeat. He helped me buy my first house, sell it when it no longer seemed to fit our needs, and then buy another house when the time came. Each time he’s been professional, available, honest, friendly, and a joy to work with. I trust his opinion, and I value his willingness to take the time ...

— Katherine E.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin Mellon was wonderful to work with. He helped us evaluate the condo we owned, suggested some upgrades to get the best value for our money, and put us in touch with professionals to help us complete the projects. He listed our condo and we accepted an offer the Monday after the showing. He also guided us through the buying side when we purchased a home. He explained in great detail the process, whic...

— Jen P.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I decided to buy my first house so I met Justin Mellon. He not only helped me to find a new townhouse at a good price but also taught me how to look for the right home. Being Chinese, my parents have many concerns about the ‘feng shui’ of the building. At that time, Justin would sit down with me and listen to my needs carefully so he always knew what I liked the most! He was also very honest about the ho...

— Frank C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I met Justin after he was recommended to me by a close friend. Even though at the time, I had a real estate agent I was considering working with, I decided to work with Justin instead. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I have ever made. Justin helped me sell my house and buy a new one. He was extremely knowledgeable and willing to research issues he was not certain of. He was supportive of me...

— Piyale C.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

The home-buying process can be extremely scary and sketchy, to say the least. While you're juggling price versus size versus yard space versus the neighborhood, there are a lot of people out there with their own agendas trying to make a quick buck off you. Unfortunately, the process of buying our home did not go as smoothly as we had hoped. The actual paperwork and negotiations went really well, but afte...

— Diane T.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My wife and I had a wonderful experience selling our home with Justin. We had already moved out of state and did the entire sale remotely. Justin took care of all the details, and we were very happy with the choices he made and the ease of the entire process. Initially, we were on the fence as to whether it was economically worth our while to sell now or to wait another year. Justin gave us his opinions ...

— Zach E.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin was recommended to us by a friend and helped us find our dream house, sell our condo and then sell our house a few years later, when we moved out of town. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Justin and Andrew expertly navigated the entire process for us. They gave us great advice and took care of all of the details, so we didn't have to worry about a thing. We highly recommend them!

— Heather D.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We have purchased two homes and sold one with Justin’s help, and every time we felt we could not have been in better hands. He knows all the Seattle neighborhoods and is always responsive, but what we appreciate the most is his experience in home renovations. When buying a house, that experience really helped in determining the value of a house and how much work it might require. When selling, Justin kne...

— Aleksandra & Marcin

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

For those of you in the Puget Sound area, take note: I can't say enough about my fantastic real estate agent. Justin Mellon (206) 919-7648; Lake & Company Real Estate), who handled the sale of my home and purchase of my new home. He goes above and beyond, and then some more for his clients. He listens. That might sound like an odd comment, but we had an agent before that continued to show us houses that ...

— Julie S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin and Andrew are a dream to work with, and we recommend them wholeheartedly. My wife and I have sold 4 houses, and we can attest that the process has never been so easy, nor so thoughtfully cared for. They felt like partners and helped us find the right amount of spending to really show off our property in its best light. They put their own time and money into the staging and used their own contacts...

— Lizzy

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Selling a home is a very stressful event, especially when you live in a different state and are about to move to a third state, but we had a great experience with Justin selling our home! We shared a vision for renovations and updates that needed to be done to the house to get top dollar and they all came off perfectly! Even when problems arose with contractors (and they always do) or meeting deadlines h...

— Kevin B.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Justin Mellon has found his calling. He is a stand-out real estate agent who I would highly recommend, without hesitation. His level of professionalism, compassion, and sincerity sets him apart. Justin has a strong work ethic and worked tirelessly to meet our needs. He communicates clearly, respectfully, and honestly. He was always available for us—so much so that I felt as if we were his only clients. J...

— Buyer

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

I rarely give 5 star ratings because can anyone really be that good? Justin is. Buying or selling a home can be stressful and emotional so I was so grateful to find him when we bought our home in Seattle. He was patient, listened, paid attention to details, and helped us land our dream home under challenging circumstances. He continues to be a trusted advisor for all things real estate. We own a vacation...

— Teresa S.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

As first-time homebuyers, we were anxious and almost didn't buy a house. Justin was unlike a previous agent who didn't listen to our needs and kept pushing her own agenda trying to sell homes that were not for us. A family friend recommended Justin so we decided to give him a call and are very happy we did. The tax credit incentive was there and the rates had dropped super low, top that off with a fantas...

— Meer Family

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We can't recommend our realtor Justin Mellon more. We just finished selling our first home and buying our new home and Justin negotiated both processes for us flawlessly. He listened to our needs, represented our wants, and helped us through every question and concern we threw his way. He is one of the most helpful individuals we have ever encountered and his extensive network of talented people to help ...

— Rob, Aley, Max, & Elvis

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My wife and I met Justin at an open house he held and asked him to list our house for sale about a year later. At first, we were unsure about selling our beloved home, but we were sure to hold onto Justin's contact info. From the time he first saw our house till we decided to sell, Justin was very patient, considerate, and helpful. He provided good advice about improvements to make, and others not to wor...

— Andrew H.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Everyone I spoke with about house hunting said the key was finding an agent that you click with. Someone who can decipher all your wants, needs, and dreams and somehow blend it all into your ideal situation. Justin, Justyna, and Andrew were all simply awesome. I can't thank them enough for putting up with my wife and I's differing opinions and for the long search in this tough housing market. Justin and ...

— Brandon G.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Kristen was our agent when we bought our first house in 1999. She was also our agent when we sold that house and bought our current house. Kristen provided us with valuable knowledge that met the current real estate market conditions. Kristen is always very professional and was always there when we needed to ask questions. If you are buying or selling a home, Kristen IS the one! Thanks Kristen, Justin an...
