Ashley Dolan

My husband and I met Ashley Dolan at an open house. We were very new to real estate and were looking at homes to get ideas about locations and features-​getting our toes wet.
She struck up a very pleasant and informative conversation with us and invited us to attend a home-​buying class at her office to go over the ins and outs of the process. We did and met her business partner, Christian Harris. So we ended up with two great brokers looking after us!
My husband and I are both veterans and were looking at using a VA Home Loan, which adds a little more complexity to the operation. Ashley and Christian both know the process inside and out and how to explain it to newbies. They are very proactive in making sure NO detail is overlooked. They even checked up on the bank and the VA inspectors to make sure things were moving forward with the loan. When problems arose with home inspections, they worked toward solving them and/​or advised us when we should let something go & why.
They also have gave us some tips that saved us from potentially bad situations. They helped keep us motivated when things seemed slow/​tedious/​bleak. Most importantly, they listened to us and NEVER tried to push us out of our comfort zone, either with a house itself or with the financials. I have heard scary stories from friends, family, and co-​workers about how stressful buying a house can be, but Ashley and Christian made the process MUCH easier! They give great advice and we ended up purchasing a wonderful home thanks to their efforts. Agents want to sell houses, but these two brokers want to make certain you get what you’re paying for and, most importantly, that you love what you get.

Ashley Dolan exhibits outstanding work ethic and was attentive to all our needs as buyers unfamiliar with the West Seattle market. She truly embodies the meaning of customer service and not once did we feel pressured to make a decision we were not comfortable with. Ashley went above and beyond to help us find the right home. We greatly appreciated her willingness to be thorough, detailed and patient throughout the process. She was quick and determined to always go to bat on our behalf. It was truly a pleasure to work with Ashley and I would recommend her and Berkshire Hathaway to first-​time or experienced home buyers.
