Find Your Dream Home

A short while ago Wendy helped sell our Kirkland lakefront home. It was a very emotional sale for us as the house had been in our family for decades. The professionalism and care she took with every step in the process was exceptional. Her guidance on all aspects including pricing, staging, marketing, preparation and her personal communication was handled with great care and consideration. We have since bought a new home with Wendy and are pleased to say it is the perfect home for us! My husband and I cannot possibly express how important a good realtor is and how working with Wendy, on both the buying and selling side, has been an incredible experience for our family!

Working with Wendy was wonderful! My husband and I met Wendy through a mutual friend. Despite with COVID, we met via zoom and we fell in love with her knowledge about homes and how successful she is. We began the journey to explore homes and we found the perfect home to begin out little family. She recommended the loan provider, handyman, inspector and many more referrals to help us along the way. Wendy communicated every update with our loan application and closing time. She communicated any questions to the agent and seller. She negotiated with the agent and seller a healthy credit post mutual agreement. She was quick and easy to communicate with. Wendy will make your experience smooth and a breeze whether you’re a first time home buyer like us or looking for your 2nd, 3rd, etc. home. You will have a pleasing experience with Wendy as your agent.

Wonderful experience with Wendy. Shes a true pro & made the process easy on us. Very detail oriented & it showed in our end results. Would highly recommend her to any friends or family.

Wendy was top notch and I would highly recommend her!  We appreciate the time she took getting us answers to any questions we had at any time of day.  We can’t thank her enough for giving us the confidence we needed to sell our home.

"We were very fortunate when a family member referred us to Wendy Klinker for assistance in selling our home. We are both elderly and had lived in our home for over 45 years. The whole process seemed overwhelming until Wendy began guiding us step by step. We very quickly learned to trust and respect her skills as we went on the home sale "roller-coaster". At all times Wendy remained calm and supportive. Every question was answered - sometimes even late in the evening. She held a number of Open Houses and always followed up with interested parties, keeping us well-informed each step of the way. She guided us through the Inspection Process and offered timely advice regarding appropriate responses to items marked as needing repair. When a sale did occur, she guided us through each step, assuring that the process went smoothly and was completed as scheduled. We both offer Wendy our very highest recommendation. Any individuals considering either the sale of, or purchase of, a new home would most likely benefit from the outstanding service that she provides!"

"I recently had the privilege of working with Wendy Klinker.  She was my husband’s and my real estate listing agent when we needed to sell our West of Market home in Kirkland, WA, just this past June of 2017.  Our children were heading off to college this fall and we needed to down size our home and move out of the Kirkland area.  Needless to say, our home was far from market ready.  Wendy, very calmly and confidently walked us through the listing process.  During our initial meeting, she made both my husband and I feel at ease at the overwhelming task that lay ahead of us.  She referred us to an exceptional handyman who had a team of people ready to make our home market ready.  She was spot on in knowing what we needed to update and fix, and what we did not need to spend our money on.  We worked as a team to get our home decluttered, staged, and ready to list.  She managed the process exceptionally, focusing on the best time to list our home.  She researched the current market and worked closely with us in setting a price that not only we were comfortable and happy with, but that had a favorable reaction from potential buyers and other real estate agents.  Our home sold after being on the market just one week.  It has been my observation that other homes in our neighborhood, which went on the market at the same time as ours, are still on the market."

I personally felt that Wendy worked very hard for us.  She marketed our home to a vast database of other agents.  She held classy open houses for potential buyers and agents.  She is professional and personable.  Wendy is kind, empathetic and patient.  I am so glad we hired Wendy to list our home.  I now think of Wendy as a good friend.  I would recommend Wendy in a heartbeat.  I am confident that she will work very hard for every client she has, giving her more than 100% effort to every project.

It is with great pleasure that I write a letter of recommendation for Wendy Klinker.

As a general contractor, home builder and developer for more than 30 years, I have had the opportunity to work with many real-estate agents and there are very few that compare with Wendy. She is an exceptional agent in many ways.  Wendy is always highly responsive and always timely.  She has incredible resources at Windermere and does not hesitate to pull in a team of support if needed for example, in complex legal agreements.    

Wendy has lived and worked in the community for many years, which I appreciate because she has deep understanding of the market and her customers.  She has a reputation as an honest and fair person that is always looking out for the best interest of her clients. 

The key reason that I recommend Wendy so highly, is that I have 110% trust in my relationship with her.  She has proven to me that she is not just my agent for “the sale”, but has my long term interests in mind. She is genuinely someone that cares about her long term relationships versus a short term gain, and goes way above and beyond to support her clients. 

Please do not hesitate to contact me directly at my cell phone number below if you have any questions or need any further information regarding Wendy’s outstanding capabilities as an agent.    

Wendy Klinker is an outstanding agent. She really goes above and beyond for her clients. Wendy has represented us as both the seller and the buyer. We were tremendously happy with both transactions. Wendy represented my 80 year old Mother when she sold her home of 47 years. My Mom did not want her home to be listed in the traditional way. That was no problem for Wendy she had a buyer for my Mother’s home before it hit the market. Wendy also found a terrific condominium in a retirement community for my Mom to transition to. In addition to representing my Mom as both the seller and buyer, Wendy also found the estate sale coordinator, put us in touch with organizations that pick-up donations and found the movers. Thanks to Wendy my mom’s house was sold and she was happily relocated in her new condo in just a matter of weeks. We were so grateful for Wendy’s knowledge and expertise.  Wendy Klinker is an exceptional real estate agent.

We had a great experience with Wendy Klinker. We felt she was on our team through the entire process of selling and purchasing our new home. Has a lot of knowledge of the area and the entire process of selling and buying. She was always available when we needed her and she was always willing to do more.

Wendy is a professional and I highly recommend her if you are purchasing or selling your home. She is one of the few that has a "can do" attitude and responded to our many requests in a timely manner. No request was too large, or too small. She is genuine and caring and guided us through every step of the sale and purchase process.

Wendy was an absolute pleasure to work with. As sellers, Wendy staged and marketed our home with an attention to detail that is rare.   Her work ethic was impressive, hosting open houses, proactively following up on leads, providing frequent updates, all while demonstrating a firm understanding of the market.   As buyers, Wendy was patient with us when required, and aggressively engaged at all the right times.  Wendy goes above and beyond, is well connected, understands the market, and through the process of buying or selling a home , becomes family.

"As, representing a family trust for both my parents (long time kirklanders) until their sunset years; had been receiving numerous unsolicited offers on their Kirkland properties for years. When finally it was the right time to sell, the decision process was still not an easy one as both properties had some history.

    Wendy Klinker of Windermere contacted me with buyers whom were very interested in the market street prop. While in no rush in selling and confident in its market value. Suddenly, within a day, offer presented. Offer accepted. Closed/done deal within 10 days. Wendy brought the right sellers at the right time and was very responsive. Closing within 10 days just doesn't happen without being attentive.

    Over a year later, same buyers/same results for the other Kirkland property in same neighborhood. In both transactions, Wendy was courteous and none pressuring. Almost all previous offers on the properties were to tear down/build new. The new buyers chose to totally renovate both properties into 1st class condition with amazing results. A preference my late father Vernon would have been pleased with. We are grateful in what happened."
