Robyn, Rachel, and Jill sold our home in Mercer Island and were top notch from beginning to end. Working with this team, you benefit from their collective strengths and expertise throughout the entire process. They provided us with a tight price estimate three months out, managed contractors to prep the home for sale, arranged the staging, put together incredible marketing, and went the extra mile to exceed our expectations and sell our home in a competitive market for more than our asking price. I firmly believe that we couldn’t have achieved such stellar results with any other agent.

Rachel Schindler was masterful navigating a back-up offer on a very desirable property, with a keen eye to detail every step of the way. She is not only an outstanding professional, she made the process fun and enjoyable.

Rachel took the time to understand our needs and worked with us in finding our ideal home. She was always available, answered any and all questions, and gave us a great sense of comfort.
The team was all wonderful to work with, and a special shout out to Jill who has been very helpful in helping us settle down and offering us recommendations for local services.

I cannot recommend Robyn and her team (especially Jill) enough! They provided a turnkey service that took much of the stress of preparing our home for listing off our shoulders. They know exactly what needs to be done, and they take care of it with an eye to managing costs. They have a portfolio of contractors that can help on an expedited basis, when other contractors are out weeks. Robyn knows the market and will tell you the truth, not just what you want to hear. Lastly, Robyn is a pleasure to work with. She and her team do a great job of communicating as the transaction progresses and they are super reliable in doing what they say they will do when they say they will do it. Robyn and her team are a complete package!

In a highly-competitive, ever-changing housing market, Robyn and Rachel make things HAPPEN for their clients. They listened to our unique requirements and wishes, were transparent about any challenges they anticipated along the way, and assured us that we would find the house of our dreams. (We did!) They have high standards, deep networks, and strategic minds. If you want brokers you can trust, go with R & R.

Limiting our options to only five stars to rate Rachel’s impact on our house buying/selling process seems woefully inadequate. If we could, we would put in 100 stars for her understanding of the industry and current market, her intuition and expertise in handling all aspects of this overwhelming process, and how much we learned from her through it all. She and her team worked tirelessly with us to find us our family dream home. What we appreciated the most was her effort to really learn what we wanted, and then guide us with direct and honest advice. When we were ready to sell our old place, she and her team were efficient, knowledgeable, and available to us for any questions or concerns. Shout out to Jill, one of her team members who also always went above and beyond to help us with all the nitty-gritty details. Rachel’s industry knowledge and connections are unparalleled, and we’re grateful to have her and her team in our corner.

We had a great experience with Rachel. She was able to help us reset our expectations about what we wanted - so that we didn’t overpay for houses that everyone was competing on. We ended up finding our dream house and being the only bidder within a couple of weeks.

Rachel and her team are truly the best. We’ve worked with Rachel on 3 home transactions (buyer & seller transactions) and would do so again without hesitation. She’s consistently proven to have great intuition on market trends, a savvy and fearless negotiator that has helped us position each of our offers/listings that has resulted in success. Highly recommend Rachel for any modern real estate needs.

Rachel is awesome!! She and her assistant, Jill, were amazing to work with. They took care of all the details to get our house ready to sell, staged, and sold at full price! Communication was excellent, and I felt like we were well taken care of through every step! I look forward to working with her to find my next dream home!
— seattle, wa
Rachel and team are the best! Rachel and team understood our criteria for our dream place and worked relentlessly to identify the right home. Their local knowledge is phenomenally useful in navigating local inventory as well as the nuances of real estate options. Always responsible, this is a team we grew to trust deeply. I’d recommend Rachel and her crew to anyone.

Rachel did an amazing job helping us buy our first home. We wanted a real estate agent who was forthright, responsive, and knowledgeable of the market. Rachel is all of these things and more. She walked us through the entire process and negotiated a great price for our house. Even after closing Rachel was there to help us find a contractor to renovate our kitchen (which worked out fantastically). We are so grateful we got to work with Rachel. We cannot recommend her enough. We also had a great experience with Rachel’s associate Jill. Jill went to City Hall for us a few times to track down title questions and building questions.

Robyn is an excellent real estate agent. I worked with her on the sale of my condo on Capitol Hill. She worked under difficult circumstances as the condo has an upcoming large assessment, unknown cost and not yet approved by the HOA, that will be levied against it in the next year. Also, there were tenants with a newborn baby who were still living there, limiting times to show the place. I listed in September and wanted to close by EOY.
With all of these constraints, she was very professional, seeking information from other agents who had listed/sold units in the same building, and handled the property management contacts. We came up with a posting that would attract buyers who could afford the condo and upcoming assessment. She arranged cleaning, painting and staging of the condo, which I think seriously helped sell it. In the end she met all of my requirements, and I’m super happy as a former condo owner.
I would work with Robyn again for any Seattle Real Estate needs, and I recommend her to everyone.

Rachel, Robyn & Jill have helped us buy two houses, sell one house and have bought and sold a number of our friends’ homes. They are a truly professional team and bring a wealth of knowledge to help buyers make an informed decision about a new property. They each have their own skill set that helps balance out their group - Robyn has an incredible eye for design and layout functionality, Rachel is a very skilled negotiator and Jill has so many well established relationships with different trades-people and workers to help get fixes done to a home. We enjoyed working with this powerhouse team and would highly recommend them to others.
— mercer island, wa
Basically everyone involved said I had one of the easiest home buying experiences they’d ever seen. The most important things to me were getting honest and constructive feedback, and great recommendations on people to partner with throughout the whole process, from great lenders to great contractors.

Robyn was the perfect agent to locate our view lot/ tear down in a highly competitive area on which to build our dream home. It wasn’t an easy task— we wanted lots of value in the land and had to wait many months— but she took her time showing us around, objectively discussing pros and cons of every neighborhood and had incredible architectural vision to help us visualize the possibilities. She was accommodating with our international time zone difference, used video tools effectively and reacted quickly to opportunities. In the end we beat a competing full price offer two days after our home was listed. Our expectations were exceeded in every way and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Robyn for real estate services.

Rachel helped us both sell our previous house and find our dream home. We are incredibly grateful for her guidance, expertise, and professionalism. As we prepared to list our previous house, Rachel’s help and insight were invaluable. She helped guide us as we made some cost-effective home improvements and she also knew what changes to avoid because the costs wouldn’t be recovered. Rachel and her team did the legwork to find contractors, landscapers, etc. Not only was Rachel’s advice invaluable, but she took on so many of the tasks that can make preparing and selling a home a stressful experience. Rachel and her team went above and beyond in every way for us, and made the process of selling our house streamlined and stress free. As we searched for a new home, Rachel helped us find exactly what we were looking for. Her experience and deep understanding of market dynamics gave us confidence as we contemplated a significant investment. Rachel skillfully guided us through negotiations and took the time to fully explain things and answer questions at every stage in the process. Working with Rachel, both in the purchase and the selling of homes, has been an incredibly positive experience. An agent like Rachel is a rare find, and we highly recommend her!

My experience working with Robyn and her whole team was stellar. She knew the market very well, her team was exceptionally helpful and responsive in getting the property ready.

She essentially had three clients to please (no easy feat) - my sister, brother and myself, as the property was bequeathed to the three of us, and all three sellers were very pleased with the outcome.

What a thrill to find that almost before my needs could be spoken, they were being met. Wow! Who does that! Rachel Schindler and Jill Smith from Robyn and Rachel, that’s who. I am a first time buyer in my 70’s, and the nerves were high, one need met after another with smiles and eagerness to go above and beyond. Please do yourself a favor and bring this expert and heartfelt team along with you for your new home. You won’t regret it! I am still in awe and delight.
— seattle, wa
Rachel is a great professional agent who will always act in your best interest! I have bought three homes using her expertise and always felt so happy after the transactions becuase of Rachel!! Rachel is the best.
— issaquah, wa
We were fortunate to work with Rachel as we planned for and actioned our recent move to Seattle. We couldn’t have asked for better insights, openness and advice on all aspects of finding a property. As a family with two school age children, we needed to take account of many variables and Rachel was confident and competent in all areas and ultimately helped us find a house that we are now making our new home.
— mercer island, wa
From the minute we interviewed Robyn, we were extremely impressed with her professionalism and knowledge of the market. She has a wide network of trustworthy contacts that we were able to tap into for minor repairs & maintenance, a thorough inspection, staging and even housecleaning. Her assistant Jill was incredibly helpful and even took our pup for walks during showings. Robyn and her team helped us navigate every step of selling our home on Mercer Island and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.
— Mercer Island, WA
We worked with Rachel to buy our home and then again three years later to sell it. She was very knowledgable and super responsive and patient. We had to put very little effort into either transaction. As buyers, she helped us know what to look for, she was familiar with the different builders, and asked for extras that I wouldn’t have even considered (for example, a new fence and a lazy suzan in a corner cabnet). On the walkthrough, she marked every little imperfection and made sure they were taken care of before we moved in. As sellers, we were not even in the country and everything went smoothly. It was a bit surreal how easy it was.
— Adams, Seattle, WA
The Robyn and Rachel team exceeded all expectations. Not only did they handle every aspect of getting our home ready to sell, but their expertise, creativity, and market knowledge were top notch. We felt listened to and supported every step of the way, and the results were incredible. We got two offers in the first three days and couldn’t have been more pleased. We are so grateful to have had the Robyn and Rachel team on our side and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell a home.
— mercer island, wa
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Rachel and Jill! They aim to take the stress out of selling your home and they did that and so much more. Rachel and Jill are professional, straight forward, proactive, organized, and very timely communicators. In a highly competitive market, they will get you top dollar and they are an all around pleasure to work with! We can’t thank them enough - literally making a tremendous positive difference in our lives.

Can’t recommend Robyn and her team highly enough. This was our second transaction with her, which should speak volumes in our trust with her expertise and professionalism. Details matter in preparation, negotiation, closing and follow up and she doesn’t skimp in this competitive market.

In short: THE BEST!!!! In long: We owe so (so so) much to Rachel and Jill for all that they did in the sale of our home that it seems silly to write them a simple review like I would a fancy hotel or a nice restaurant. A hotel can give you a pleasant night; a restaurant can serve you a great meal..but Rachel and Jill quite literally made our entire lives. I’m not sure where we would be without them. I am so happy to not have to know. We lived (and loved) a rather high maintenance home but with the “hot” real estate market we thought we could just choose any old (or young) real estate agent...so we did. What a HUGE mistake not doing my research and going with someone else with less experience at first. It cost us months on the market and a giant stress headache. Finally enough was enough and I did some actual research to find the best in the biz. It didn’t take me long to find Rachel and Jill. As much as I wish we had found them sooner, I am just so appreciative that we ended up with them (if you are reading this, do the same thing, trust me!!!). They took our listing and property completely over; giving us incredible advice on how to market and stage more effectively. All of it WORKED!!! Not only did we sell the property fast but, thanks to their “outside of the box” thinking we made more money than we originally thought. Top to bottom, they are the top of their game. If they were a fancy hotel they would be The Ritz. As a restaurant; nothing less than The French Laundry. But I am so happy they are neither of those things and instead do what they do so well; sell great homes masterfully. I can not thank Rachel or Jill enough for all that they did for myself and my family. I should try harder than just with some silly review. For now, this will have to do. You will thank them too!

I would highly recommend Rachel. We were beyond content with her overall knowledge of the market, her responsiveness and willingness to listen. She is the best agent we have ever worked with and was a fierce negotiator. With 18 offers on the house we purchased, I can honestly say the main reason we won was because of her. She went over the top to work with the lender and the selling agent to make sure we positioned ourselves in best situation possible. We never felt pressured throughout the purchasing process and she had our best interests in mind throughout it. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any of my family or friends.
— Mercer Island, WA
Rachel was amazing. She held our hand every step of the way, and no detail was small enough to escape her notice. Rachel removed all the obstacles and made the whole process fun and intuitive.
She was always available to answer any questions. A truly dependable friend with fierce negotiating skills.
She helped us get our dream house at price we didn’t think possible. Thank you so much Rachel
— Kenmore, WA
Robyn helped me narrow down the parameters of my search, and helped me find some homes that I wouldn’t have found on my own. Her expertise gave me a lot of confidence in making an offer, and I was able to buy a home at a fantastic price. I would highly recommend working with Robyn.
— seattle, wa
Robyn has been a huge source of support for our family as we looked to purchase a home.
Her knowledge of the area was invaluable as she guided us through a very competitive real estate market, which resulted in the purchase of our home. She then performed the same service a year later for my parents.
We sincerely appreciate all that Robyn has done for our family, she has literally helped to bring us closer together
— Mercer Island, WA
Rachel is amazing. We are so grateful to have gotten to work with her, and would not have our beautiful home today if it wasn’t for her. Rachel is incredibly knowledgable about the local market and responsive. She is a great negotiator and willing to go the extra mile for her clients. She met us at all hours of the day, even one night coming over to our house to walk us through a lease (we were first time home buyers). The house we did buy with her, she showed us on Mother’s Day (which I felt terrible about, because she is a mom!), but none the less Rachel showed us this house and wrote up our offer on Mother’s Day. Because she made such a quick turn around, we were the only ones to make an offer on this house. We found out later, multiple families submitted other offers, but were too late. She saved us a ton of money and made the process enjoyable. We highly recommend her.
