"We called Heidi to help us find a home after reading reviews on Zillow. Heidi was friendly, cheerful, and helpful from the first phone call. We purchased a short sale home - a difficult process, but Heidi was on top of it. She stayed in constant contact with the seller's agent, educated us about every detail, and encouraged us to continue looking at other homes in order to be prepared if the deal fell through as well as to know the value of the home we were trying to buy...even though this meant a great deal of her time spent. She was happy to show us homes, often the very day they came on the market.
Heidi urged us not to settle if we found a home we liked but one small thing was just a bit "off" for us. We only felt supported, encouraged, and respected - never pushed or pressured. After closing, when the sellers did not follow through on agreements, Heidi stepped up. We were shocked and so grateful at her dedication to ensuring our experience of purchasing a home was only a good one. She has a TREMENDOUS amount of integrity.
Since our purchase, we have asked Heidi for trade recommendations and each has been a top-notch company, most recently for a roof repair. Should we have the occasion to sell our home, buy a home, or have influence on others who do so, we will call on Heidi." back to top

"We would like to recommend Heidi to anyone seeking a personable and professional realtor. We are honored to have Heidi serve as our realtor for selling our home in Gig Harbor. She provided insightful analysis and recommendations to help us sell our home for the best price. She kept us informed of new developments. She has a deep understanding of the local markets. As a result, she was able to make excellent recommendations on pricing our home combined with the appropriate marketing strategy.
Heidi has many unique gifts that contributed to us selling our home in approximately 30 days. We would like to share our experiences with some of these gifts. First, she is very creative and it showed in her marketing ability. Our Brokers Open was amazing and video presentation of the house was unique and excellent. We had excellent foot traffic and positive feedback.
Her second gift, is building a great team around her. Greta is her partner for staging the house. Our house felt warm and cozy and it attracted many people and helped sell the house. Heidi and Greta are an amazing team.
Finally, Heidi embodies customer service. She was there for us to answer all questions. She anticipated our concerns and provided recommendations before we asked. She was there for us 24/7.
We highly recommend Heidi to anyone needing to buy or sell their home.

"We were relocating from overseas to the Gig Harbor area. With very little time for a house hunting trip, we contacted Heidi to view as many homes as possible, during a holiday week, on very short notice. Arriving locally just two days later, Heidi had scheduled many homes for viewing and was ready to go. We found Heidi to be intelligent, engaging, warm, and switched-on and it was a pleasure working with her. We strongly feel that the homes that we viewed were representative of what we were looking for and we were able to see many on our very short trip. Heidi demonstrated a genuine interest in helping us find what WE wanted and we were never pressured. The home we chose was a short-sale with very little time available to close. The fact that we were living overseas during the buying process made it that much more challenging. Heidi went out of her way to accommodate every one of our many needs and was in constant contact despite a large time difference often requiring her to be up late. This is the fourth home buying experience in my lifetime and there has been no comparison with this one and the other three. We couldn't be happier with the home we purchased and the service we received from Heidi." back to top

"I was lucky to be referred to Heidi when I needed to downsize and move closer to where I work in Seattle. Heidi was extremely professional, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. She sold my house in Gig Harbor in a short time and spent a lot of time showing me places before I found exactly what I was looking for to buy. She is very dedicated and hard-working and honestly made selling one house and buying another easier than I had ever imagined. There is nothing I would change about my experience working with Heidi." back to top

"I moved here from California. Heidi spent considerable time showing me homes in University Place, Tacoma, Fircrest and Gig Harbor before I decided that Gig Harbor was where I wanted to live. She was very diligent with her comparables which was most helpful since I was moving from an entirely different market. She made sure I was not overpaying on the house I bought though there were multiple offers on it. She is professional, knowledgeable and patient. She is also easy going and charming -- important qualities when you spend days together looking at houses! I would highly recommend her.? " back to top
Bill and Louise Park
"My husband and I worked with Heidi in 2010 to buy a home in Gig Harbor. We were in California during the process. Heidi sent us many homes on the internet to look at. We narrowed it down to 14 before flying up to look at the homes. Heidi is very organized and thorough. She showed us all of the homes in one day. We went back the following day to the three we liked the most and made an offer on one. Everything went very smoothly. Heidi is very conscientious, and is excellent with follow-through. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others." back to top

"Heidi is a consumate professional. Her easy going nature and tremendous market knowledge made selling our Gig Harbor house a pleasure. She was always very responsive and well informed. Her secret weapon is Greta, who did an amazing job staging our house for photos and sale. If only we had met Greta when we moved into our house! They were both so much fun to work with. Needless to say, our house sold in less than a week!

"In one of the worst economies in history Heidi sold our house in a matter of days. She re-assured us at every turn when something challenging popped up. She did a great job and delivered on every promise. If you don't hire her to sell your house - well you're crazy. " back to top
Duleep and Andrea
"We had just moved to Gig Harbor and were in the process of looking at houses when we met Heidi at an open house. She asked us whether we had a realtor and since we did not have one we made a verbal agreement to have her as our agent.
She proceeded to show us over a hundred houses and knew our tastes and preferences. She even had our profile on her website with what we were looking for. We weren't the easiest clients; however Heidi was patient and was available on a moment's notice to see new houses that came on the market.
She is very fair in her dealings and she is a person of very high integrity, her follow up is second to none and always kept in close contact.
If you want to find a patient realtor, who cares about your needs and tastes and will treat you professionally and with respect, I highly recommend Heidi. We cannot thank her enough for getting us situated.

"Responsible, caring and reliable are the 3 words that cross my mind when I think about Heidi Rowntree, my wonderful and very professional residential real estate agent in WA. Heidi has not only helped me to buy a number of investment properties, she also has sold number of residential properties to number of my family members.
What also unique about Heidi is she is a wonderful listener and knew how to formulate the big picture before breaking down the detail executive tasks when a project is arised. For example: Heidi has helped us to approach number of property management companies in different cities and areas in order to find out the rental market requirements before narrow down her search for excellent opportune real estate that meet both our requirements and the rental market needs.
Heidi and everyone from my family and I always stay in touch. She has becomed a part of our "big" family and I am very happy and glad to have a big sister looking after our interests as always.
If you have any question about Heidi, please feel free to give me a call anytime. It will be our pleasure to highly recommend Heidi to anyone who seriously want to learn or to buy residential real estate in Northwest of WA State.
Sincerly,
Hai Duy Ho (from Silicon Valley in CA)

Marcos Osuna III SFC MIL USA TRADOC
"Amanda and I first met Heidi when I asked for a realtor to contact us about new houses in the area in 2004. A few realtors responded with their initial response, but Heidi answered our request and provided us with a follow-up email without hearing from us. After looking at 3 homes in two separate locations, Heidi knew exactly what we wanted and what would best fit our family of two boys.
We purchased our first home with Heidi, and recently sold our first home with Heidi. Selling the house was the easy part, deciding if we wanted to part from our first home without being in Washington was the hard part. Heidi assured us and guided us through every step that our house was in good hands.
Heidi is not only a realtor, but a friend, a friend that devoted her time to us after business hours to ensure our satisfactory and happiness. From the Osuna's, thank you so much." back to top
Mr. Hwang
"We'd like to thank you for our wonderful home buying experience. I am a soldier with 22 years of military service and am currently serving in Korea. I was trying to buy my first home to settle down after retiring from the service. We have been corresponding via email, fax and mailing for about 9 months before the final closing date. From the day one when we first communicate via email, Heidi was always there to assist to whatever our needs were. Heidi promptly emailed and replied back with any updated information. Heidi represented me superbly to make selections and upgrades for my homes. As a first time homeowner our Realtor (Heidi) buying experience has been superb. We could not have ever done it without your service. Thank you.
Very Respectful,
Mr. Hwang SFC, US Army" back to top
