Testimonials

Phillip did an amazing job selling my home. From the very first meeting, he was very thorough in looking over the details of the house and explaining his thought process and strategy when it came to selling, often answering my questions before I even asked them. I recall it was a couple of hours of discussion, which I greatly appreciated given that I hadn't committed to working with him yet. From this very in-depth discussion and his clear familiarity with the local area and even my specific neighborhood, I committed to working with him later that day. The preparation process was also very smooth. Phillip's team shared their Basecamp calendar with us, so it was a very quick and easy reference on when who was doing what. This as well as the WhatsApp group chat set our minds at ease with knowing what we needed to do, as well as knowing when his team or contractors were working on things in the house. It was also fun to bump into him when we were doing a spot check at our home (we already knew his team would be there at various times), it was clearly obvious he was giving our listing significant personal attention, something also important to us. I basically accepted and paid for all his suggested improvements, and we came in under the original estimated budget, as I trusted his judgment in knowing what needed to be done (this was proven to be correct) Our listing was great as well, we had a 3D walkthrough and a video, as well as beautiful pictures of our staged home (a massive step up from the pictures used when I purchased the home). We had several offers, which Phillip did a great job of helping us understand and negotiate, and we were very satisfied with the outcome.

We’ve had the privilege of working with Phillip Belenky and Shane Rossow of PBNW Homes for the past 15 years, and their dedication to every single project continues to impress us. They consistently prioritize their clients' needs, ensuring that every detail is thoughtfully considered from start to finish. What truly stands out is their compassion and genuine care for their clients. Earlier this year, we worked with them on a project for a seller who was parting with the home she grew up in after her mother had passed. Phillip went out of his way to keep us informed and requested that we incorporate the mother’s favorite colors into the staging design as a way to honor her memory. After the home sold quickly with multiple offers, we had the pleasure of meeting the seller, and she shared how much that thoughtful touch meant to her. Moments like that are a reflection of the heart and care Phillip and Shane bring to their work. No matter the price point—whether it’s a $500K listing or a $5M property—Phillip and Shane approach every project with the same attention to detail, compassion, and commitment to their clients' success. Their consistent level of care is something we greatly admire. As home stagers, we collaborate with many different agents, and working with Phillip and Shane is always a smooth and rewarding experience. Their organization, clear communication, and professionalism make them a pleasure to partner with. Their proactive approach ensures that each project runs efficiently and with intention. We’re happy to recommend this team and would trust them to sell our own homes without hesitation. If you’re looking for agents who are attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely committed to their clients’ success, PBNW Homes is a great choice. —Seattle Staged to Sell

We got introduced to Phillip and Billy through a colleague when we were relocating to Washington. They started providing guidance before relocating and made us well prepared in terms of understanding the market, different neighborhoods, and the process involved. They understood our situation and needs. They set up the online portal and started sharing the houses available in the market a week before our planned visit to get us familiarized. Phillip and Billy worked as a team and accompanied us for multiple house showings at different locations on the same day. House show timings and order were well planned one after another and well-coordinated with the listing broker, to accomplish seeing more houses efficiently in the least amount of time. They were genuinely interested in finding the best house for us by pointing out the pros and cons with attention to detail during each house showing. They came with an in-depth understanding of the local housing market and were up to date. They were proactive: if we seemed to be interested in a house based on our discussion during the house show, they were one step ahead of us by initiating communication with the listing broker. They had the determination to pursue and negotiate every lead to make it happen. They communicated promptly, and regularly and were easy to work with. We are happy and fortunate to have the support of Phillip and Billy. They made the whole process a great experience for us.

Phillip, Shane, and Team are the absolute best Realtors® you can work with. Phillip helped us buy our house 9 years ago and now, during the pandemic and while we were not even in the country, he helped us through the process of selling. Phillip explained his detailed marketing plan and coordinated updating, staging, and landscaping while Shane came up with amazing ideas for the interior design to maximize our odds of a quick sale. It worked like a charm. We received multiple offers above the asking price. The buyers were thrilled about the design, she is a designer herself. During the whole process, Phillip was transparent about every move. This way, we were always well informed about what was going on. Phillip explained every detail to us and the strategy of pricing the house just right in order to get multiple offers. During the last phase, when the title company had tech issues and we had to find a solution to sign the papers and notarize our signatures from abroad while the US consulates were closed due to the pandemic, Phillip went above and beyond to help us close the sale. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Phillip and Shane to anyone buying or selling a home in the Seattle area.
