People and houses. People in houses. These are my passions—in that order.
Maybe it’s because I’m the 6th child in a family of 11 kids. Maybe it’s because I’ve met clients over the years whose circumstances require a move because of major changes: empty nest, professional relocation, divorce, in-laws moving in. And maybe it’s because I’ve moved more than a few times in my life and I get all that it entails.
Real estate happens when real life happens.
Here’s what I bring to the table:
~ Sound Guidance
~ Extensive Market Knowledge
~ Finely-Honed Negotiating Skills
~ An Attentive Ear Tuned in to Your Real Life Needs
All work in tandem to exceed your real estate goals.
No one will work harder for you. No one knows the market better. And no one will spend more time listening to you and finding the best terms possible for your transaction.
Whatever your reason for buying or selling a home, I am here to help you succeed at every stage of the process.
FORMAL BIO
Tony Butz knew early in his career that the only way to realize his full potential was to work for himself. After earning degrees in Broadcast Journalism and Communications at Bradley University, he tried his hand at waiting tables, freelance writing, and sales in the hospitality industry. With a wife and newborn baby to support, he took a leap to start his own catering business, which he ran successfully for 13 years. Then, at a low point of the real estate market, he took the risk and shifted gears to follow his passion in helping families and individuals relocate and establish first time residency.
Tony’s work ethic and desire to provide helpful information to people in emotionally charged and expensive endeavors has lead him to be a top producing broker in his office. He currently lives in Issaquah and loves to help people buy and sell homes in his corner of the Northwest.
"Awesome! Best real estate broker EVER!" Craig & Julie Brauff - Elk Grove, CA"Tony was fantastic. He helped my girlfriend and I sell two homes and buy another. In each case knowing that Tony was 'on it' was a huge relief. We will definitely recommend Tony to others in the future. We also hope to work with him when we make investments in real estate in the future. His advice for staging our house was very informative." Matthew Slosson - Bothell, WA"Tony works hard and earns the trust of his clients. He really is on your side. His knowledge of the neighborhoods on the Eastside also sets him apart. Tony goes the extra mile. We couldn't make the last walk through but we totally trusted Tony to handle it for us. He also is a great resource for outside vendors that are needed when you move into a neighborhood." Trevor & Loriann Caldwell - Seattle, WA"Tony is amazing. Not only was he incredibly efficient, but he was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and I am confident that we wouldn't have got the house if it wasn't for him. This was our first house and he walked us through the entire process answering all of our questions and making sure we understood everything. He was absolutely amazing to work with and I have recommended him to everyone that I can." Samantha Tanji & Robert Johnson - Issaquah, WA"Fantastic service! Tony made us feel like VIP and his guidance in the buying process was everything we could have asked for and more. Tony writing a letter to the seller on our behalf was a fantastic touch that definitely helped us secure the home. It also showed that Tony genuinely cares for his clients and seeing them succeed."
