Debbie is a Seattle native and currently lives in the Green Lake neighborhood. She has lived and worked throughout the Greater Seattle area and has helped her clients buy and sell homes in a wide variety of locations, from the urban to the semi-rural.
Debbie came into the real estate profession after working in architecture, construction, and Seattle-area public and private education. With strong ties to these fields, she is able to add a broad service base to her real estate knowledge.
With an established referral list of architects, remodelers, contractors and handymen, she is able to help sellers navigate the process of getting a home ready for the market. And, she can help buyers who are improving their new homes.
When buyers shop for a new home, Debbie is able to discuss the pros and cons of architectural design – when does form sacrifice function? How do the different styles of homes affect the long-term investment potential or the ongoing maintenance of a home? If you are a family thinking about moving to the Seattle area from out of town, she can connect you with parents, teachers and administrators currently in the public school system, so you can quickly assess what your best choices might be.
Debbie is proud to be a member of the highly respected, independent real estate firm, Lake & Company Real Estate. Lake’s Golden Rule is to consider clients as a family, and this can be seen among the staff as well.
The Lake brokers see themselves as a team, rather than a group of individual competitors, and seek to help every broker succeed in meeting their clients’ objectives. This gives the client not only a committed individual but also an army of reinforcements! Carefully selecting a firm with this kind of philosophy – where the CLIENT IS CENTRAL, Debbie is committed to work hard, with the highest integrity for her clients.
In addition to her work background, Debbie has experience in property management, is a member of the Rental Housing Association of Puget Sound, has been named Best in Client Satisfaction in Seattle Magazine every year since 2009, earned a Bachelor of Arts degree, and has post-baccalaureate education.
There still is a call for a full-service agent in this market, and Debbie is it. In fact ESPECIALLY in this market, you will need someone who will literally go the full distance and get your house sold ethically and for the best possible price and terms amidst all the insanity. She did it for us even in a less than ideal season and we felt fantastic at closing about the whole process and price. She is a top rated agent (Seattle Magazine 5 star) and it shows.
She likewise got us into our ...
Debbie was great. She really made the home buying process so easy. She's very easy to work with, and made my first purchase not so scary. She and Max were really there for me with any questions I had along the way
I would highly recommend Debbie Jefferson as your Realtor. Debbie assisted me when I put my house up for sale in North Seattle during a slow time last summer and held multiple openings until it sold. She is a consummate professional and extremely knowledgeable when it comes to what was needed before and after the sale. Debbie recommended an amazing house cleaner, stager, and window cleaner that made my 1940’s house look better then ever (I was actually debating if I should sell). We also ran i...
I met Debbie in 2012 when she helped me negotiate a condo purchase in a co-housing community. I was immediately stuck by her demeanor, professionalism and knowledge. I appreciated that fact that she was looking out for my best interest, even though it was her co-worker who was the listing agent. That whole transaction went so smoothly and she even had recommendations on the remodeling I had in mind to expand the unit. And then here we are, 3 years later, I reached out to Debbie to help me se...
Debbie helped us buy our house in Ravenna in 2011, and then sell it in spring of 2018. We recommend her to all of our friends. She is exceedingly patient, which is an important skill as a buyer negotiating Seattle real estate for the first time. She knows the market intimately, so when you're finally ready to buy she will put you in position to make a competitive offer. And when you're ready to sell, she knows all the right people and touches to make your house stand out of the crowd and ma...
As first time home buyers, we were so glad we chose Deb Jefferson to be our agent. She is very knowledgeable about the Seattle market and was very patient with us. Deb did an amazing job at listening to our needs and showing us homes that matched perfectly with our goals and priorities. She brings positive energy to what can be a very stressful process and truly goes the extra mile for her clients. She understands the competitive Seattle market and gave us great strategic advice when writing ou...
Debbie helped me keep on top of a crazy market, work the negotiations on three different offers, and ultimately find and buy an amazing home. She was very available to go and look at homes even in the summer months, and when she was unavailable she always had someone competent help me go and see them. Additionally, she was responsive to my needs as I got a better idea of what was there in my price range. And finally, when it got down to brass tacks, she was clear and concise with me and the sell...
It had been a while since I dipped my reticent toes in the Real Estate waters, and I cannot tell you how reassuring and calming it was to have Debbie Jefferson on my side. Not just because of her acumen, her ability to write the best possible offer, and her knowledge of the area but because I truly believed she saw me as a partner and not as a "sale." You will never be sorry if you choose Debbie Jefferson as your partner in your real estate adventure. Now dip those toes!
Debbie represented us when we bought our home in Seattle in 2007 and she represented us when we sold it in 2016. Debbie is a true professional in every sense of the word. She is both experienced and knowledgeable but more importantly she worked tirelessly in helping sell our home. Debbie looked out for our interests at every step of way and ensured we received maximum value while minimizing downside risk. My wife and I would recommend her to any seller or buyer in the Seattle area.
Debbie was recommended to me by a friend who described her as a highly knowledgeable, professional, personable and authentic agent. She proved herself to be all those things and more as she sold my condo and helped me buy my dream house. Her expertise garnered the highest selling price per square foot in the history of that condo building. She also secured my house for a reasonable price in a highly competitive market. In the year and a half since I bought my house, I've returned to Debbie f...
Debbie helped us to win a competitive offer process for our dream home in the exact neighborhood location we wanted. She also helped us to sell our previous home form $25,000 more than we thought we could get! Debbie is extremely professional, and her advice expertly guided us through the home buying and selling process in Seattle's competitive market.
We give Debbie Jefferson a “five star” or “A+” rating!
Debbie is extremely savvy and professional. We interviewed several highly recommended realtors, but Debbie stood out because of her calm, can-do attitude. She clearly and patiently explained the ins and outs of the Seattle market and – very importantly nowadays – how to forge an aggressive Purchase and Sales Agreement. With Debbie’s expert guidance we were able to make a very strong, genuine offer on our home. It turns out...
I can't recommend Debbie Jefferson highly enough! In my 40 years of extensive experience buying and selling homes, there is no one who comes close to the service/professionalism of Debbie Jefferson. First off, she had the best professional advise of anyone I've ever worked with, even in Manhattan, New York City! And she was with us every step of the way, taking care of every detail of preparing the property for sale, determining exactly what needed to be done, making sure all other parties invo...
Debbie made the difference in our ability to find a and win the house that we love. She made herself available throughout our search, was instrumental in providing insights relevant to the market, and delivered when it really mattered the most. As first-time home buyers Debbie provided us with critical education while also respecting our personal preferences and circumstances. We highly recommend Debbie as an agent!
Debbie helped me find and purchase my first home. She was highly recommended to me by two close friends and she exceeded my expectations based on those recommendations! I can't even begin to describe how helpful she was with the home buying process. I literally felt overwhelmed by everything, but she was patient with me and really made sure everything came together. I also can't say enough about how good she is about communicating. I always felt like I was in the loop and knew what was goin...
We can't say enough about our experience with Debbie as our buyer's agent. She was transparent, efficient, and patient with us as we discovered what we were looking for in a home. Her practical and timely moves got us our home, period. She knew exactly when to push on sellers and when to strategically cater to what they needed. On top of her professional prowess, Debbie is a delightful person to share this experience with and helped us laugh through the highs and lows of the process (of course, ...
Debbie is the absolute best real estate agent out there. My husband and I started looking for a house in the most desirable (ie, most difficult area to buy in) areas of Seattle at the end of summer 2017. We first used a different agent, who kept delegating us to his much less experienced partner. After losing 6 offers, we knew we had to change agents and that the crazy Seattle real estate market required the best and most experienced agent in order for us to win an offer. We were referred to Deb...
Debbie was wonderful to work with. For the first 14 months of our search, we were "just looking," but Debbie always made us feel like we were her only clients. We were from out of town, and Debbie was very good at getting us in to look at houses, even when there was only a short window of time when we were available, and giving us candid feedback about the houses we saw. It may seem like a minor point, but in all the hours we spent with Debbie, we were never tired of being with her. Most imp...
