The heart of real estate isn't the number of properties sold or the sales commission from each transaction. It's your home--- and that's something that Eileen Quackenbush intuitively understands as she helps her clients find the place where they can enjoy life and raise their families, or prepare to sell their home and take the next step in life. With her years of experience both as a realtor and a paraent, Eileen knows that it's all about finding your perfect home base. 

A Washington native, Eileen has lived in places as far-flung as Columbia, Missouri, and Anchorage, Alaska, but the Emerald City has always been home for her and it's where she's been practicing real estate for over 20 years. With insight and a listening ear, she'll help you figure out not just what you want, but what you need from your next purchase or sale. When it comes to negotiations, Eileen is an expert at creating win-win situations with her firm-but-fair stance.

Driven by her commitment to her clients, Eileen has partnered with fellow broker Kristen Eichelberger to continue offering a compassionate, client-first approach to real estate. Having lived in Seattle since 2003, Kristen shares Eileen's integrity and commitment to helping her clients make decisions that are best for them, not the sale. An accredited Buyer's Representative and Senior Real Estate Specialist, Kristen provides clients with the information and strategy they need to find success whether they are buying or selling.

This dependability and service is integral to Eileen and Kristen's real estate practice, as they build relationships with repeat clients and new referrals alike. They love connecting with people in all stages of life, helping them sell their property and plan for the future, or settle down in a new home. Working with Eileen and Kristen is more than a transaction---it's the start of a relationship in real estate that you can rely on for many years to come.

About Kristen...

Growing up in a big family, my sisters and I learned quickly that homeownership encompassed a great deal. But most importantly, it was about pride. Whether that meant we were working in the yard on weekends, helping with sporadic home repairs or remodeling, cleaning up around the house, or enjoying our first summer barbeque surrounded by family and friends, we were proud contributors to the place we called home.

Selling or buying a home can be an emotional experience filled with a lifetime of memories or the anticipation of creating new ones. As your trusted advisor, it is my promise to respect your individual needs with empathy and compassion and to provide you with exceptional service. Honesty, integrity, dedication, and responsiveness are the most critical values and I hold them in the highest regard. I take pride in delivering excellent results for my clients. I start by listening carefully to what you want to achieve and then I work tirelessly to help you exceed your goals. This process is about you, and I am honored to be your partner.

My professional background includes over 20 years in consultative sales and marketing. I have earned my Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR) and Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES) designations. You can be confident that I am uniquely qualified to market your property effectively and I promise to negotiate the best possible price and terms for you. As my clients, your best interests are my sole priority.

On a personal note, I am a dedicated mother to my three amazing (and lively) children – Jackson (14), Avery (12), and Mason (8). They keep us extremely busy and on our toes! I am an avid runner and sports fan and can usually be found outdoors here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest enjoying time with my family. My door is always open…and I am very excited to be a part of your team!
