Francine Viola, Realtor - Olympia, Washington

We can't say enough on how extremely happy & satified we are with Francine & all that she's done for us to make this stressful process an easy, well informed, & smooth process. We bought our 1st home with her & she was amazing & she out did herself with helping us selling our home as well. It's definitely not easy when you are out of state & this is your 1st time selling your home. Not being there physically is even more stressful! However, Francine was great with communicating with us every single step & the process of selling our home. She kept you in the loop via email daily with showings & all information that was pertinent with the selling of our home. Francine is very knowledgeable about Real Estate & she is very straight forward. She gives you the best advice she can offer & then leaves it up to you on how you would like to approach it. The biggest thing is that she supports you & your choice. Francine is the BEST & we are thankful for everything that's she done for us!!!

Other than finding our dream home, working with Francine was the best part of our house hunt. We were first-time buyers shopping from out of state, and Francine was patient, receptive, and had stellar communication. We never felt rushed or pressured; she listened to our needs and gave us space to explore different neighborhoods and price points. Her virtual walkthroughs (live or recorded) were thorough, critical, and fair. Her insight and advice when making offers was invaluable. We were self-directed shoppers, but when we overlooked a promising house, she made sure to bring it to our attention--and that's the house we bought. I can't think of a better recommendation! Check out Francine's YouTube for an introduction to the Olympia housing market, and then pick her as your realtor: she's funny, personable, knowledgeable, and entirely dedicated to her clients' needs and best interest.

My family and I relocated to Olympia, WA in March 2021 and Francine was amazing during the home buying process. We landed in a really tricky buyers climate and it was extremely competitive and stressful. I moved in with my senior parents and we were looking for a safe house for them and lots of space for me. Francine kept us informed with new houses to look at, and she was there for us to set up appointments during the pandemic so it was safe for my senior parents to look at the homes. She had compassion and understanding of what type of home we wanted, and she supported me in the purchase decisions without pushing me into anything, especially in the sellers market where one has to make speedy decisions to purchase a home. Francine shared her referrals like mortgage brokers, estate lawyer, and builders to help me with my property once we moved in. We landed an amazing home that Francine suggested to us and it exceeded our expectations. I discovered Francine on YouTube with her fun and informative videos last year and am grateful I did. From the first phone call to closing the deal, Francine made it happen with ease, more so when I was stressing out. Francine was my real estate angle that kept me calm and hopeful during this competitive purchase. If you are looking to purchase a property or home in Thurston County I recommend Francine a million times. I walk around my home and play in my veggie garden and still daily thank the work that Francine did to get us in this home. The entire home purchase experience was a pleasure. You are in for a treat when you work with Francine!

Francine helped us successfully navigate a hugely turbulent sellers market in buying a home and I am so glad we had her by our side every step of the way. Her in-depth research on every house we short-listed helped us make informed decisions. She is extremely helpful, knowledgeable and responsive. Her professionalism, expertise, sense of humor and excellent interpersonal skills make her a wonderful representative for anyone attempting to purchase a home - I cannot recommend her enough!

Francine was our realtor when we first moved to Washington and helped us find an awesome home with through Rob Rice. She recommended that we look at Wells Fargo for a better interest rate than we were receiving at the time and it turned out much better. Francine maintained contact with us throughout our stay in Washington and she was our first pick for when it was time to sell our home. We had a very tight timeline but Francine was huge part in our home only being on the market for 6 days until we received an offer. After receiving the offer, she gave us concerns and recommendations that proved to be invaluable. She did not just jump at the sound of the first offer but took a more professional and experienced approach to ensure that we were taken care of and protected. With her insight and experience, we counter offered and were able to make the sale which satisfied both parties. Overall, an excellent realtor to work with. She is not overwhelming and really caters her style to your personality. I would work with Francine again any day and our trust in her was never misplaced. Thanks for such an awesome experience in both buying and selling Francine!

My husband and I were referred to Francine and were very satisfied with our experience! Francine was able to knock out a written offer on our behalf soon after we connected, and negotiated tirelessly with the seller's agent to ensure that our offer was accepted over competing buyers. She was very straightforward and I truly felt like she had our best interest in mind throughout the entire process. Francine is incredibly professional, responsive, and knowledgable about the housing market and trends. Francine made us feel like we were her only clients and that type of service just can't be matched! She even stayed in touch with us after the sale of our home to make sure everything was going well. I would love to work with Francine again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a local realtor!

I am so thankful my husband and I had Francine as a realtor for our recent home purchase in Olympia. It is a very hectic, stress inducing housing market and having Francine as our realtor made all the difference. She is knowledgeable, professional, and had excellent guidance as we purchased our property while we were still out of state. I have worked with several realtors in the past, and Francine’s expertise and dedication to her clients really stood out. I highly recommend her for anyone buying or selling in Olympia!

We couldn't have made our relocation happen without Francine's help and my wife and I can't thank her enough! Start to finish Francine was on the ball, super responsive, very professional, and a true subject matter expert.

Navigating the ultra-competitive 2021 Olympia housing market and getting a great house wouldn't have been possible for us without Francine's knowledge, expertise, and all of her hard work on our behalf. Francine Viola was the difference between us getting into a house we loved and having to spend a year renting and waiting.

Every member of her professional network that she recommended we work with was just as professional and reliable all along the way. My wife and I have worked with a few realtors over the years in numerous states and Francine has been a true standout among them all. We couldn't have done it without her and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for the best realtor in the greater Olympia area. She has more than earned any future business we have to offer her.
