Malia is savvy, energetic, quick to respond to queries and very good at explaining the ins and outs of real-estate deals to someone who was totally unfamiliar with the process. I feel as though I really lucked out in having her as my realtor, both for buying my condo and selling my house.
Malia was amazing to work with. Very professional and capable but also easy to get along with. She was quick to get back on any questions and provided great advice which was especially appreciated as this was our first purchase and we had plenty to learn

I recently worked with Malia to purchase my new home, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the first phone call to closing day, Malia was a true professional, always providing excellent communication and guidance throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer my questions and address our concerns. Despite having last-minute issues with our lender, I felt confident that we were in good hands every step of the way. I highly recommend Malia to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy agent.

Malia was great and helped us throughout the home selling process with advice and support. We had a particularly unusual time because of interest rates, economic uncertainty, and an unusual home but she was able to push through this ambiguity and we sold quickly at a price we were happy with.

Malia was phenomenal. I generally don't give 10s on a review because I like to think everyone has some opportunity for improvement, but Malia deserves an 11 because I wouldn't change a single thing about my experience. This was my first home purchase, and she went above and beyond to answer all of my questions cordially, quickly, and thoroughly every step of the way. She worked incredibly well with my mortgage lender and was a primary driver in securing a fast close (less than 21 days). I cannot recommend her highly enough.

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Malia. She was professional, responsive and friendly. Being from California, we relied on her expertise and knowledge of the market, the neighborhoods and resale value to guide our decision making. She was a real trooper helping us measure the length of a garage to see if our car would even fit! We wanted her advice on homes that we saw online, and loved her candidness and sense of humor, which made our home search experience more pleasant. When anxiety and FOMO caused us to be indecisive, she showed great patience and became our sounding board and voice of reason. Thanks to her due diligence, she found our new home! She stayed with us throughout the home buying process and represented us when we were unable to be on-site. Overall, she did an amazing... Show More

We have and will continue to recommend Malia to our friends and anyone else who’s looking to buy a home in Seattle.

We have worked with Malia to purchase 2 homes through Redfin, and she has always been very professional and very patient, especially as we were unfocused in our search for the right neighborhood. She maintains a calm demeanor and sense of humor, much appreciated during a fraught process. Although we have no intention of moving any time soon, we will definitely call upon Malia for any future real estate transactions.

Who knew that buying a house could be this easy? As first time home buyers, we knew little about what it took to find a home in Seattle, with the exception of the horror stories told by friends who had recently gone through the process. After our first meeting with Malia, we felt confident that we were in good hands. She understands, and more importantly, can articulate the ins and outs of the local market in a way that helped us prepare to put our best foot forward. Her recommendations for service providers were spot-on, leading us to great experiences across the entire home buying process. Malia is congenial, responsive, and perceptive. We're very grateful to have been paired with her during this experience.

Malia was very patient with us. We saw about 100 homes in a 3-month period and she got us the details about the ones that we liked. She answered all of our questions and helped us understand the vocabulary of real estate. For the homes that we liked, she raised all the red flags and guided us with her insights into the areas and transaction strategies. We prepared an offer for a home that we didn't submit because we found the one we eventually purchased. Malia submitted our offer within a couple of hours of our viewing and helped us beat all the other offers. We wouldn't have the keys to our new home without her speed. She has a good network and recommended several options for various services that helped us move quickly. If you are working with Malia, you are in good company.

Malia was awesome! She was there for us every step of the way and was very patient with our need to see many houses. Transaction went super smoothly. We feel like we completed the purchase very fairly and efficiently thanks to Malia.
My first connection with Malia wass during the Redfin "first time buyer" class. This helped me understand what my current situation was and what i should expect during my buying process. Malia was very transparent and answered all the questions I had. She was there through the whole process of my purchasing. She gave me much insight about the surrounding area's and even helped me compare the sold price of the unit next door. As a first time buyer, I thought it would be a much more daunting task, but Malia and her team made the whole process smooth. Thank you Malia and team!

Malia was a rock star. She took us from first-time home buyer newbies to home owners in a matter of 3 months. Incredible attention to detail and an attitude that reassures you in moments of confusion or doubt. My wife and I are very Type A and data driven...Malia helped us channel that in a productive way and we ended up buying a house that we love.
Oh - and I can't forget - Malia recommended a lender who was a life-saver (21 day close!) and a very good inspection company. We had an awesome experience working with Malia!

Malia went above and beyond her role during our house buying experience! She was so willing to make sure we found the right fit, which made the process enjoyable and as stress-free as possible. The home we finally decided on had a lot of back and forth with the seller and Malia made sure that all of our needs and wants were taken into consideration and ultimately met. The week before we finally closed on the property, my wife and I were out of town and Malia was here to ensure all of the last minute details were looked after. During this time, she was in constant communication, updating us on anything she deemed necessary. I honestly cannot give Malia a higher recommendation - her attention to detail and knowledge of real estate was unmatched. But the thing I came to value more than... Show More

She was very friendly and helpful through out the process. We learned a lot, and she made her best to meet with our late-ish schedule.
However after we made the offer she became a bit less responsive.

Malia helped my fiancee and I get a home that we love in the exact area we wanted to live. Her tremendous professionalism and salesmanship not only helped us get the home, but helped us get it at a bargain. The home that we ended up buying was a fairly hot listing, and ours was one of four offers. Malia understood what was important to the seller and she emphasized why our offer was strong in those areas. This helped to get our offer accepted over the three others, some of which were actually higher than ours. After the offer was accepted, the inspection revealed a few issues, and we decided to ask for a pretty large price reduction. This could have easily caused the seller to balk. However, Malia exhibited tremendous salesmanship in presenting our case to the seller, and they agreed to... Show More

I really enjoyed working with Malia on buying my new home. She did a great job answering all my questions about the house, communicating with the sellers, and providing helpful advice as I went through the process. At no point did I feel that she was pushing me into making a decision--rather I felt that she let me drive the deal forward at my own pace but was there to help me if I needed it. I would absolutely buy a home through her again.

As a first time home buyer in a competitive market, I was extremely overwhelmed and intimidated. I was actually planning on not using Redfin, since I believed that a traditional agent would be better able to offer me a more involved customer service experience. Malia had other ideas. She went above and beyond, reaching out to me with homes that were exactly what I was looking for, and more importantly, that I had a chance to make a competitive offer on. She connected me with a house that was exactly what I was looking for. Even though I wasn't able to close the deal (through no fault of hers), it was an excellent experience and I wont hesitate to use Redfin again next time I'm in the market.

Malia is everything you want from a realtor. Someone who's knowledgeable about the area and quick to respond to any questions. Not only that, she actually cares about the buyers and is always looking for the best deals. Closing a home was quick and easy and I couldn't recommend her more!

Malia was a great help in putting together our offer, and helping out every step of the way. She was very nice, approachable, helpful and had great communication through out the whole process. It was a pleasure to work with her.
I would also like to give a shout out to Beth Gentry; she happened to be on vacation the week we submitted our offer, and sent us over to Malia. Beth had helped us put in a few offers that were not accepted, she knew we were really picky, and worked with us for several months, even when we were slow at responding, and just saying no to alot of houses. She knew when to approach us, and when to stay low. She was amazing, too.

We were in very capable hands with Malia and her team. She is savvy to the unusual local market, has excellent instincts, and is quick to respond. She was smart and candid, discouraging us from an over-extended and unwise bid on a house that seemed to have caught our emotions. I was disappointed to walk away, but it was very good advice. Patience and a little more preparation paid off when "the one" appeared on the market. Malia navigated us masterfullly through the buying process with good advice, honest feedback, and a solid offer with a touch of heart. She worked swiftly "after hours", communicating with the seller's agent, representing our interests with strength, sensitivity, and accuracy. Having heard so many discouraging stories about the feverish and competitive local market, we... Show More

We first met Malia at a Redfin Homebuying class and she was fantastic and helped us really understand what we were getting into in the Seattle market and how to make a competitive offer. Once we started working with Malia as our agent she was even more amazing - I can't imagine anyone better to have helping us through this process! We are first-time homebuyers and she helped walk us through everything step-by-step and answered all of our many questions. She was so great at giving us all of the information to make our own decisions (she really knows her stuff and the market!) so that we felt in control and comfortable with our offer. We would have gladly worked with Malia for a long time through the home buying process (and kind of expected to given how competitive it is in Seattle), but... Show More

Malia was straightforward and positive, and was very responsive. She earned our trust on our first home tour by pointing out a flaw in the room of a home we were looking at together in a comic way, which struck us as refreshing and reassuring that she was on our side. She didn't try to talk up the houses we were looking at, but was frank about the properties and their upsides and downsides. She was helpful in teaching us about the process of buying and selling a home, and she always responded quickly to our messages. A good part of the reason we own the home in which we are writing this is because she helped put together our offer strategy and paperwork and scheduling, including the financing and pre-inspection. She was also flexible and able to meet with us and keep in touch with us... Show More
