What to know about top real estate agents in Washington
Top Washington real estate agents combine deep, local expertise with higher-than-average performance. Here’s what that looks like in Washington.
General
- High transaction volume: Does more than 5 sales per year (local median)
 - Well established: At least 3–5+ years of experience in the local market
 - Good reputation: High total review count and average ratings
 
Sellers
- Pricing expertise: Few-to-no price drops
 - High sale-to-list ratios: Typically sells near or above list price (median sale-to-list in Washington is 100%)
 - Strong marketing strategy: Beautiful photos, compelling listing descriptions, maximum visibility
 - Faster-than-average sales: Gets homes under contract quickly (median sale timeline in Washington is 54 days)
 
Buyers
- Strong negotiator: The best buyer’s agents in Washington often save 5-10% off list price
 - Local expertise: Know neighborhoods, schools, amenities, regulations
 - Responsive and accessible: Reviews consistently call out these specific traits
 
Most likely, yes. The vast majority of home sellers in Washington will get the best outcome and most money selling with a top local real estate agent. That said, it really depends on your goals.
Consider listing with a Washington realtor if:
- You're aiming for top dollar or need help navigating pricing and offers
 - You want someone to handle the full process—marketing, showings, negotiation, paperwork
 - Your property is typical for the area and priced at or above $200,000
 
Consider alternatives if:
- You want a faster sale and are open to a cash offer from a cash home buyer or iBuyer
 - You’re cost-conscious and want to save on commission with a discount real estate broker
 - You want to avoid realtor commission altogether and are comfortable trying FSBO (for sale by owner), knowing that FSBO sales usually net less and require a lot of work.
 
In Washington, the average real estate commission is about 4.86%, while the national average is (5.57%).
- Typically, this gets split between the listing and buyer’s agents (2.49% and 2.37%, respectively).
 - Rates are negotiable and may be lower for higher-priced homes or repeat clients.
 - Following the NAR settlement, buyers may need to negotiate their agent's fee directly.
 
Sell with a top agent and save
With Clever, sellers can list with a top local agent for just 1.5% (or $3,000 flat) — up to 50% less than the typical rate in Washington.
If a traditional agent isn’t the right fit, here are some Washington alternatives:
- Get fast, no-obligation offers from investors, iBuyers, and bridge loan providers.
 - Ideal for distressed homes, tight timelines, or sellers prioritizing speed over top price.
 
- Offer lower commissions (often 1–2%) while still providing MLS access and support.
 - Good option if you want to save but still prefer professional help.
 
- Pay a one-time fee to list your home on the MLS.
 - You'll handle pricing, showings, and negotiation yourself — best for experienced sellers.
 
- No agent involvement, no commission—but you’ll do everything yourself.
 - FSBO homes typically sell for less, so weigh potential savings vs. final sale price.
 
Pro tip: Even if you go non-traditional, consider services like Clever or local offer platforms — they help you compare your options and connect with agents or investors offering discounts, fast offers, or both.
