BUSINESS PHILOSOPHY:Being a proud, lifelong Puyallup/Tacoma 'kid', it's a safe bet I will be an excellent resource and fierce advocate for your local real estate activities. Delivering results that not just meet but exceed expectations is my goal for everyone I work with, every time. The added bonus is the evolution of our rapport with one another- it's rooted in my ability to make anybody and everyone feel comfortable and empowered. Connection with my clients throughout a transaction endures long after closing; I'm proud & grateful to have a robust track record of transforming clients into lifelong friends. Buying and/or selling a home can be accompanied by a multitude of emotions so I am committed to providing personalized service that attends to your individual/situational needs. The experience with me is one I hope you reflect on with utmost satisfaction. I truly believe in providing you an exceptional experience because without fulfilled clients and reputable relationships, I would be out of business! This is YOUR transaction- I'm here to manage its intricacies while providing valuable information & support, allowing you to make confident decisions. Together, we'll reach a successful closing... and gain an enduring friendship!PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND:For 20+ years, I was a union grocery retail employee (position: a jill-of-all-trades!) which provides me an extensive customer service skill set working with a diverse demographic. In 2017, I was nominated for Rookie of the Year from the Tacoma Pierce County Association of Realtors. I hold several national designations for demographics I am particularly passionate about: SRES (55+), CRS (Certified Residential Specialist), ABR (Accredited Buyer's Representative), Divorce Certified Specialist (DCS), Certified Probate Specialist (CPS) and Military Relocation Specialist (MRP) specializing in the details of our country's VA benefits for service members, past & present.GETTING PERSONAL:I'm a down-to-Earth, authentic kind of gal-always {humorously} transparent about my shenanigans as a professional, a mother, a wife and a HUMAN. I'm pretty darn relatable! Always up for a donut run rather than a business luncheon, sporting holey jeans & a messy bun but never power suits with heels. Since being challenged to participate in a bloodmobile drive in college, I've been a regular blood donor. [Currently: 9 gallons donated.] More recently, I've been inspired by those close to me with cancer, to also begin donating platelets through NW Bloodworks. If all this sounds like someone you'd be friends with, I'd be honored to be yours as well as your REALTOR too! Looking forward to working with you as a client & FRIEND!Cheers ya'll,Trish CLIENT TESTIMONIALS"Trish is awesome. We have been working with her for over a year, she has been 100% with every detail including patience. Every call, every email, we felt we were her number 1 client and first priority. We had a few hang ups with our final purchase and Trish was on task with everything. She is truly amazing. Her attitude, her spirit, and her personality not only make her the best realtor, but part of our family now too." Frank Anderson | Buyer & Seller | Puyallup & Tacoma, WA " Trish Stone has a good working knowledge of market trends and realty activity in the area. She not only knows the realty business but applies her skill in a professional manner with personable appeal. Trish should be considered a true asset, radiates customer service, professional knowledge a kind demeanor and is simply a delightful person to be in the company of and communicate with. Trish made what could have been a traumatic, pressure cooker procedure into a relatively smooth, well disigned and prchestrated process." Bruce & Linnea Stebnitz | Seller | Puyallup, WA " Trish has a rare work-ethic and is a skileed negotiator. She's perpetually positive and always a pleasure to work with. Trish knows how to make deals happen in terribly challenging market conditions. EVERY single time I've recommended Trish she's made me look brilliant." Kirk Rau LEAVE TRISH A REVIEW
