Raving Reviews

Working with Suzanne on the sale of my home was an excellent experience. From the start, she impressed me with her sense of timing, her market knowledge, and her ability to identify what would make a strong investment. She listened carefully to what mattered most to me, and her guidance was always practical and on point. Suzanne’s strategy and advocacy stood out. She handled every detail with professionalism, kept the process moving smoothly, and ultimately sold my house above asking. I always felt confident in her expertise and trusted that she was focused on achieving the best outcome. I’m very thankful for her support and would recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor who combines deep expertise with genuine commitment to her clients.

As a fellow real estate agent, I have a strong opinion on what it means to be a good agent. Suzanne isn’t good, she’s GREAT. We recently had a transaction together (she was on the sell side, and I was on the buy side). Her commitment to her client’s best interest was obvious. A lot of agents equate fighting for their clients with fighting with the agent on the other side of the transaction —this is a tragic misstep. It takes real skill, exceptional poise, and savvy to practice the art of negotiation through collaborative communication. Suzanne knows how to build bridges in an industry where everything comes down to relationships and communication. It was an absolute joy working with her —both of our clients got their win in the end and winning with CLASS is sweeter than merely winning. I’d recommend any buyer or seller to work with her and I’d be thrilled to find myself working with her on another transaction soon!

I’ve known Suzanne for 8 years after screening real estate agents who are actually trustworthy and ethical. She has helped me and my family immensely with my parent’s property after they passed away, and more recently with helping us sell our Seattle house. She is a great listener and is not afraid to roll up the sleeves to work through the messy details. She has lots of experience in the marketplace. I would strongly recommend Suzanne to anyone looking to buy or sell property.

Working on the recent sale of my home with Suzanne Fortune was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We were deliberating for some time before deciding to list our home, and Suzanne guided us with our real estate investment through every step with patience, market expertise, and discreet professionalism. She provided a white glove concierge service while keeping us informed and confident in every decision. Her market knowledge and strategy were spot-on—Suzanne sold our home for over list price within 2 days in Redmond, far exceeding our expectations. She maintained a clear focus on our best interests throughout the divorce, always advocating for us with compassion, care, and integrity. If you're looking for a realtor who is smart, thoughtful, and results-driven, Suzanne is the one to call!

Suzanne Fortune made the experience of selling my house so much easier then i thought it would have been. From helping the previous tenants move to a new location, while keeping them happy along the way, with a positive attitude. Answering or calling me right back as soon i needed assistance throughout the project. Taking the time with me to organize and implicate the proper details to put the house on the market. Suzanne did a phenomenal job staging the house for an affective and immediate sale. A very helpful, and heartful person to help you sell your house.
