"Highly likely to recommend"
Hi, Joseph was my agent while I was looking for a condo to invest. We started off by discussing strategy and then helping me explain the landscape. He was very professional and showed me relevant condos. Once we honed down on a condo he helped me negotiate the right price. Throughout the closing he was there for any question and support. I recommend working with joseph Ran
"Highly likely to recommend "
Joseph has been extremely helpful in helping us understand the trade-offs of buying a property of different types (e.g. condo, duplex, etc.), and the differences between various Seattle neighborhoods. He has gone above and beyond in helping us through the negotiation with the seller, guiding us through the process, connecting us to relevant service providers, etc. It's been a much easier experience having Joseph on our side!
"THANK YOU JOSEPH!"
Joseph is driven & dedicated to his work & is a pleasure to work with. The house I ended up purchasing was not on my list of places to look at, as it was not within my budget. Joseph was able to negotiate a lower price for me, & I am very happy with my purchase! He was always on time for appointments, very knowledgeable about the Seattle area & market, & has a lot of great tips to share. THANK YOU JOSEPH!!!

I would highly recommend working with Joseph to find your next home. After renting in Green Lake for a year, I was preparing myself to renew my rental agreement because I didn't think I'd be able to find anything in Seattle's competitive market before my lease expired. Joseph was able to help me find an amazing home in less than 3 weeks! Here are a few things that made my experience with Joseph stand out: 1. He was always available to answer my questions and never passed me off to someone else (as a first time home buyer this was very important to me) 2. He worked around the clock to notify me of new properties that met my specifications (we put in an offer on my home hours after it posted online) 3. His ability to write competitive offers in the Seattle market is second to none (He wrote a very competitive offer on my home and helped me save money on my purchase) I was able to be honest about what worked for me and what didn't without feeling pressured to buy something that didn't make me happy. I was very fortunate to have found Joseph as a realtor in this market. His past experience buying and selling properties for himself definitely made me feel like I had a leg up on the competition during my search for a home. I would definitely work with him again when the time comes.

We found Joseph to be a 6 star professional; we highly recommend him. His service was above and beyond our expectations. We learned much about the wide berth of Seattle realty from his informative emails, talks and viewings. His passion and commitment to his clients is apparent from the first meeting. Our CPA recommended Joseph to us; we are multifamily investors. Joseph is knowledgeable about all aspects of Seattle residential real estate. He listened to our varied requirements and found properties that fit our needs. That alone was no small task. He consistently offered unique ideas and opportunities about optimizing property/ land use. Joseph quickly answered all of our questions, once again proving his diligence to his pursuit of quality. His explanations were concise and clear. He patiently explained the the pros and cons of the investments we were viewing.

Joseph is knowledgeable, responsive, and has high integrity. I've bought two houses with Joseph in the last 2 months - my first rental property in Licton Springs and a smaller home a block from Tangletown that we'll use to build our new family home. Joseph is very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to evaluating income and development potential of rental properties. We were the only offer and were able to close under the asking price despite the hot market. Now 2 months later, I have great cash flow and plans to double the income from the property with some minor development projects over the next two years. Even after the sale, Joseph is still being helpful by sharing lease documents, contractors, and advertising services he uses with his own properties. Joseph is very responsive (he says 24/7), and he always alerted us to newly available properties the same day they listed, which was very important in our Tangletown purchase. He also advises on the offer terms, and has a very accurate sense of the final sales price in this crazy time of multiple offers and escalations when hot properties list and sell in 3-7 days. We were in a competitive situation with the second home and we won the property just $5K above the the second best offer. I would recommend Joseph for anywhere in North Seattle and probably Capitol Hill, Montlake, and Queen Anne too.
"Joseph has the important combination of experience, intelligence, business and common sense!"
I would highly recommend Joseph to be your Realtor. He will work diligently to get things d one for you like he did for us. Joseph has high integrity to his customers, he is very logical and with his experience and common sense and he will make sure that you are not going to make the wrong decision. I found Joseph to be having good negotiation skills; he is timely, responsive, accurate, and extremely well-reasoned. He is a good communicator and will keep you update to date on what is going on with the transaction. There is not enough good things that I can say about his abilities and expertise in the Seattle real estate field. There are many agents you to choose from but in my opinion, Joseph has the important combination of experience, intelligence, business and common sense that make him stands out from the pack of other good agents. With him it not just to make the transaction happen, it’s more of a long term relationship and will continue to serve your needs.

We were very lucky to connect with Joseph on a recent trip to Seattle. We were in town to find an apartment for our daughter who will be moving there in January. Looking at the high rental prices, we quickly changed gears to look at condos which seemed a better investment long-term. Joseph was great helping us navigate a real estate market that we we not familiar with. He obviously knew his stuff! He lined up several places for us to look at. We flew back to Boston the next day and, with Joseph's superb help, was able to put in an offer, negotiate and close on a condo in Lower Queen Anne all by phone and electronic signing. We can not say enough on how Joseph was key in making it happen and making the process painless. Great realtor. We will use again when it is time to sell. Since then, he has gone out of his way to help us with some small items like getting keys, checking the heat in the condo,...until my daughter arrives in January. Really "above and beyond" as they say! A+

After we moved away from Seattle, we have kept our townhome as a rental. As years passed, it no longer made sense to keep the property, so Joseph Goldberg helped us to sell it. This was not just a house, it was our first joint purchase and a place where our children were born. So this was an emotional sale, and, at the end of the day, obviously a financial decision. Joseph was incredibly sensitive to all the details of the transaction, from ensuring that we got the highest sale price, to walking us through the legal and emotional closure. We couldn't have asked for a better agent to trust such an important decision to.
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph is the right agent in the right place and exactly what you want in your real estate agent to be. He is highly knowledgeable, understand the local real estate market and very familiar with the entire process. He is always there for you to guide and walk you through the process and give you his expert opinion. He will strategize the best offer that could get you the house for the least amount of money and will notify when the right house came the market. I will highly recommend and will use Joseph again to buy my next real estate.
"Josef provided us with a great end to end professional experience!"
Josef provided us with a great end to end professional experience and managed to close a difficult deal in a very competitive market. We chose Josef through friend’s recommendation and he did not disappoint. If you need a real estate agent that makes the difference and give you the edge, Joseph is certainly the one!! Very experienced, friendly, patient and business savvy. Thanks.
"Joseph did a fantastic job! "
Joseph did a fantastic job! He consistently found us great properties to view and when it came time to write our first offer he really helped guide us through every step of the process. Several times we were interested in homes with multiple offers and we wouldn't be in our new home today without Joseph's savvy negotiating. Highly recommend him!
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph knows real estate, and understands the market very well. His knowledge makes it easier to make the right offer to get the property in this competitive housing market. He was very responsive to requests to see houses, and was very accommodating to our hectic schedules.
"He is extremely responsive"
Recently completed our second investment property purchase with Joseph. Joseph is extremely professional and knowledgeable, and was very effective in fine-tuning to our needs and finding the right property for us (including visiting potential properties and expressing his honest opinion). This was super-valuable as we could complete the entire process remotely. His experience came into play when extending the offer, then negotiating the terms throughout the process to be significantly more favorable. He also helped find other professionals (inspection, insurance) and served as our local contact person for every need. He is extremely responsive and was very easy to work with, and we feel very fortunate to have had him on our side.
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph Goldberg represented us in selling and purchasing in a number of investment properties. We have recently moved from Seattle and needed an agent we could trust to represent our affairs remotely. Joseph was always available no matter the time differences, walked us virtually via every communication method through every picture, video, legal document, and option. It is a no brainer to buy/sell a house in a hot economy, but it takes a real professional and a gentleman to represent a deal gone sour. Joseph was incredibly thoughtful not only of our interests but also of the other party. This is exactly what an agent should do - not be a walking talking computer, but to advise, respect decisions, and be a trustworthy partner. We continue working with Joseph and can highly recommend him to others.
"Joseph has a great personality"
I have known Joseph for more than 10 years now and purchased with his help few condos in Seattle. He has been my go to person with any questions related to being a landlord, dealing with HOA's, home finance and maintenance of the apartment. He always proof his great knowledge. Joseph will always go the extra mile to help with any problem you may have during and after the purchase. Joseph has a great personality, he is very friendly, very knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy. Joseph has been in real estate in Seattle for a long time, and it shows through his intimate knowledge of neighborhoods, types of properties, market prices and details of the purchasing process. I would recommend Joseph to anyone, who's looking for their first home purchase or their next property investment.
"I highly recommend Joseph Goldberg!"
Joseph Goldberg is an exceptional Realtor and I can't say enough good things about him as a professional and as a person. His assistance and guidance were instrumental in our purchase which otherwise we were not doing. His deep knowledge and understanding of the market backed by easy to understand charts and lots of invaluable tips, helped us a lot in deciding on buying the rental property which we are very happy about. Joseph has several rental properties and has an incredible 'on the ground' experience with buying, remodeling and renting apartment in the Seattle area. Furthermore, Joseph provided us with valuable advice on how to get ahead with the purchase in a strong sellers’ market. His assistance did not end there. He provided us with a lot of guidance on how to get started as landlords. I highly recommend Joseph Goldberg!
"I highly recommend him!"
I recently bought a condo in Seattle and Joseph was my realtor. Joseph did a fantastic job. He has an excellent understanding of the market and is a very good negotiator. I highly recommend him.
"Highly likely to recommend"
We just bought our first house with Joseph, and totally happy that choose him as our real estate agent. Now Seattle real estate market is overloaded, and it's hard to buy nice house that meets your expectations and works for your budget. And Joseph was really helpful because he can persuade seller sell house to you. I think, for Seattle market it's the most important characteristic of the real estate agent.
"Joseph is the best of the best! "
Joseph Goldberg supported my first-time purchase of an investment property in Seattle. He worked with me closely for months, tirelessly analyzing opportunities, getting inside information, and using his wealth of knowledge to ensure that I am making the right deal. Joseph is attentive, knowledgeable, shrewd, delightful, and a great communicator. Most importantly, you know that Joseph is 100% on your side. The latter point became abundantly clear when he cleverly negotiated the price down after the inspection results came in. I could not recommend Joseph more for your Puget Sound real estate activity.
"He has earned our trust and our highest recommendation!"
Joseph is an outstanding agent and we unequivocally recommend him. Firstly, he is professional, trustworthy and honest. We were first time buyers of commercial property and Joseph patiently showed us many different buildings over an extended period of time. He was always available for questions, and we never felt pressure from him to move forward, ever. Secondly, he knows the commercial real estate market inside and out and was willing to share his expertise freely with us. As new investors, we depended on Joseph’s thorough, critical analysis of each property we evaluated. He was forthcoming with whatever issues or concerns he saw, whether it was with our ability to handle a challenging property or whether he had doubts about the building, the property or the sale. His perspectives were simply invaluable. Joseph is also an astute and sharp negotiator. He has incredible judgement on how and when to drive a bargain. As such, he was able to bring the price down from our initial offering significantly. He also provided excellent oversight, so that all the transactions moved forward smoothly. Joseph’s breadth of experience is matched only by his insightfulness about human nature and he knows how to apply this to his client’s benefit. Finally, Joseph is all about building long term relationships with his clients. He has continued to support us long after we closed on our building and certainly long after his obligations to us were officially over. He willingly has shared with us management strategies, referrals for handymen, documents, templates and always, always, his great advice. He was, and remains, a fantastic mentor for which we are incredibly grateful. Because of his long term commitment to us, we have been able to successfully transition into an entirely new field of endeavor and when we move on to acquire more properties we wouldn’t think to ask anyone else for help. We have nothing but gratitude for the time and effort Joseph has put into helping us find a commercial rental property. He has earned our trust and our highest recommendation.
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph is a nice and professional realtor with the sense of responsibility Who I'd like to recommend highly. It is more difficult to purchase a house especially a rental property for a nonnative person.I was luck enough to meet Joseph who gave me so many helps both in the purchase and even after. He was always available and extremely patient when I needed his help at any time. Because of his hard work, I became a new owner in a month and a landlord in about 10 days! Thanks Joseph! It's really a wonderful experience in purchasing and renting with you. Hope to do business with you again and I'd like to introduce my friends to you if they want to buy house here.
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph was the reason I was able to buy a home first the first time, in a hugely competitive and aggressive market, within both a reasonable schedule and a limited budget. He was willing to give me time to tour a diverse sample of listings to figure out what I need and what expectations I should have - he was very upfront about my options and engaged in adapting our search to my needs. I though the hard part was over when we placed an offer, but without Joseph's help, I would have been paralyzed by the task of finding lenders, insurance, and all the rest. He is very resourceful and engaged in the real estate community - he immediately had referrals for me to reach out to. Not only that, be he was a great advocate for me to the end - Joseph responsive day or night, and he expects others who are working with his clients to do the same. I was an inexperienced home-shopper and it would have been easy for me to get lost in the weeds, but Joseph's expertise, engagement, and get-it-done approach enabled me to move into my new home within a mere months of starting to look.
"He is very professional, responsive, and resourceful"
Bought a Condo home in 2019 in Seattle, WA. Joseph supported me diligently throughout the process and connected me with the appropriate resources. As a first time home buyer, I was nervous about various aspects of the transaction; however, Jospeh patiently and thoroughly explained everything to me. He is very professional, responsive, and resourceful. It was a pleasure working with him.
"Highly likely to recommend"
Joseph was a wonderful agent to work with and have on your side. He knows the Seattle market inside and out, which was helpful for us as we embarked on the journey to find our first home. When walking through properties he has a really good eye for how homes could be updated or renovated and what aspects needed fixing. He prepared us for how quickly things moved and was extremely responsive to our needs. Joseph guided us through the process of putting forward our strongest offers and different strategies to stand out. We feel unbelievably grateful to have our new home and we could not have done it without Joseph! We would highly recommend him. – Rob and Devon L.
"We will definitely use his services again and recommend him to all our friends!"
We were looking for a real estate rental investment property. Joseph helped us to buy a nice condo in Fremont. Joseph has an intimate knowledge of the local real estate market. He is highly experienced in locating a property that meets the client's specific requirements. He notified us when the right condo unit at the right price came to the market and advised us on the offer price that he believed seller will most likely accept. He also helped us decide if it is a good investment using a detailed spreadsheet for worst and best case scenarios. He is highly knowledgeable in the entire bidding process, including the inspection, effective negotiation management (with his leadership we improved the price very significantly), and closing the transaction. He was there to guide and walk us through the process and give his expert advice, always keeping your best interest as his top priority. A week after closing, Joseph helped us find tenants and sign a lease with them. He was extremely helpful in finding handymen to get the property ready for rental in a very short time. His commitment to your best interests continues beyond the transaction itself, it's more of a long term relationship. Joseph is highly professional, extremely reliable and trustworthy. The combination of expertise and integrity with which he managed this transaction effectively, accurately and quickly gave us the confidence to enter the real-estate market and we will definitely use his services again and recommend him to all our friends.
"He was always very friendly"
Joseph has been our agent for a while and he is simply wonderful. He was always very friendly, knowledgable, experienced, and patient. He answered all of our zillion questions (we're not very easy clients), and was always positive and helpful. He was also available to talk to us in late hours (after our kids went to bed), and even during his vacation when we really needed his advice. He also managed to help us close on a pretty unusual purchase, where some repairs were needed to be done in a tight time frame, and he guided us very well through this uncertainty until the successful close. He simply went above and beyond to make sure we close the deal in the best way possible. Some of his advices really made the difference between succeeding and failing, including when facing many competitors. I have strongly recommended Joseph to all of our friends that even remotely expressed interest in real estate investments.
"Joseph is extremely knowledgeable"
I worked with Joseph in July 2018 to purchase my new home in just under 3 weeks, and below asking. As a first time home buyer, and being relatively new to Seattle, I did not know what to expect. Joseph walked me through the home buying process and spent countless hours discussing options and viewing homes, to familiarize me with what each neighborhood had to offer at different price points. When I had questions about the home, Joseph did not hesitate to reach out to the sellers agent, or contact King county to get more information as needed. Joseph is extremely knowledgeable about the Seattle housing market and gives great tips and recommendations regarding local businesses for homeowner needs. He is easy to work with, patient, and friendly. He is easily reachable by text, email, or phone call, and was happy to work with me on nights and weekends to better suit my schedule. Months after my purchase, I know that if I contact Joseph with a question today, he will be more than happy to help. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an agent that will work diligently to ensure that as a client, you get exactly what you want! When next I’m in the market for a new home, Joseph will be the first person I call!
"We could not be happier with our choice of Joseph!"
We completed an investment property purchase under Joseph's guidance. New to the Seattle market, we felt very fortunate to work with a professional like Joseph. Closing a real estate deal can be complex, and having someone knowledgeable that you trust at your side throughout the process makes all the difference. Joseph located potential properties that aligned with our desired investment strategy, clearly explained pros and cons of each, and laid out detailed calculations that distilled the value of the property we decided to go for. His proactive approach during the offer stage (in dealings with both the seller and the lender) was invaluable, and resulted in our offer being accepted on a great property. Joseph's involvement did not end there, he remained extremely responsive to questions and provided helpful advice throughout the ownership transition period. He also made the introductions to all other professionals that were needed (inspector, insurance, etc.), and served as their local point of contact as needed. We could not be happier with our choice of Joseph as our agent and warmly recommend using his services.
