Mia is simply the best realtor I’ve ever worked with.

She expertly guided us through every decision point in our months-long house hunting process in Seattle. She was always available to help, her instincts were always on point, her knowledge and skill was truly impressive when we were putting in offers and negotiating with sellers, and she went the extra mile to make our closing experience a joyous and memorable one. I can’t recommend her enough.

Mia was amazing to work with.

As first time home buyers, Mia helped us navigate the entire process by explaining every step along the way and prompting us when we needed it. She covered absolutely everything for us. She also responded to us immediately and was very willing to work around our schedule. We found our dream home and no way we could have done it without her!

Mia is incredible!

She asked us for an example of our dream home, and within 48 hours that house was ours for less than we than we expected to pay! She is extremely responsive, efficient, and competent. She continued to look out for us even after our offer was accepted and uncovered information about the property that the seller failed to disclose. Then she connected us with an expert who helped us decide to move forward. She is a legend in our household. You should work with her!

Mia was an absolute joy to work with at every stage of our homebuying journey.

As first time buyers, we were looking for a realtor who could educate us on the process, patiently field our many questions, and provide strong guidance on how to find and close on the right home. Mia and her wonderful colleague Kristin checked all of those boxes and more. Mia proved to be immensely organized, responsive to our outreach, and reactive to our preferences. We also were immensely impressed with her effectiveness - she helped us produce strong offers, and, even though we lost out on several bids, she helped us strategize and close on a wonderful home in Ballard after only a couple months of searching in a very competitive market. Mia is also a highly effective negotiator and really goes to bat for her clients. Mia and Kristin were the calm, reassuring, and joyful partners we needed during what was at times an emotionally taxing process. And Mia's support has not ended even after the close - she's regularly checked in with us to ensure we're settling in well, and has been very helpful in getting us connected to some great home improvement contractors. We highly recommend working with Mia!

Mia was incredible and she made every part of the home buying experience more painless and easy than I could ever imagine.

She understood exactly what I was looking for and then brilliantly strategized to get it. I got the first home I put an offer on, and at a fantastic price at that. I would (and do) recommend her every chance I get.

Lilian R.

This was my second transaction with Mia, she’s a rockstar realtor!

Incredibly attentive, responsive and always advocating for her client’s interests. Highly recommended!!

Tomas A.

From the moment we met Mia, we felt we were in the right hands to lead us through the transition of selling our house after moving out of state.

She gave us a sense of confidence, backed up by an impressive knowledge of the market, an endless list of resources, easy communication , and solutions to any problems that surfaced. She gave great direction and input while still being open to our ideas and opinions. We handed over our keys as we drove off in our moving truck and she had the house sold (with multiple offers over listing) before we were settled in our new home. To top it off, she is a ton of fun to work with and our only disappointment was that it all went so efficiently that we didn’t get to work with her for long. I couldn’t recommend Mia more highly.

Thank you to Mia Klarich and Kristin Metcalf for their stellar partnership!

They are a powerful and responsive dynamic duo and are grateful to have had the pleasure of working with them. They are incredibly aligned, responsive and knowledgeable. Mia and Kristin helped us land our dream home in a very competitive market in early 2022. After we placed multiple unsuccessful offers on homes, we started a new relationship with Mia and Kristin. With their help, they turned our spirits around and gave us hope that we could find a home in a competitive market. Ultimately, we landed in our dream home, in budget and location and could not have asked for a better experience. If you are serious about buying a home and are ready to partner with a realtor that gets it done, and makes it happen, look no further than Mia Klarich!

Cody H.

Mia is a phenomenal partner.

She helped me buy/sell in a competitive market and was a tremendous advocate from the start. She also has deep expertise and guided me through the process seamlessly. Highly recommend!

Molly S.

Mia was magnificent!

She kept it real with us as new, naive home buyers; and kept her patience, answering all our questions through this unfamiliar process. Mia and Kristin kept us informed on market changes, new listings and helped develop a strategy for this tumultuous time in real estate. Mia and her team stayed flexible for tour times and worked their magic to get us into a variety of showings. Couldn't be happier with our new home and felt we were in good hands throughout the entire process! Thanks, Mia!

I highly recommend Mia as your realtor!

She helped us buy a house in Seattle in Dec 2021 despite the competitive market. She set up a number of viewings for us, and we were fortunate in that the first house we made an offer on was successful. She made our house search easy and enjoyable. I know this wasn't just lucky - Mia is professional and strategic and clearly knows the market here well!

Desla M.

Mia is an incredible real estate agent- we've used her both to buy and sell our house.

She helps you navigate the complex Seattle real estate market with ease and provides actionable and strategic guidance. In a market that wasn't great for sellers, she managed to get us six offers on our home and landed on a great deal that was WAY above what we were expecting. 10/10, would recommend hiring Mia as your agent!

Jessica S.

Mia was the best guide for my first home buying endeavor.

She was attentive to my needs, honest with the expectations, patient with my questions, and thorough with analyzing listings and their alignment to my requirements. She made me feel like I was working with a friend that had my best interests at heart. Even after the process has ended, she has kept in touch and helped me navigate move-in issues and communication with previous owners. I've recommended Mia to all my friends looking to navigate the current rea estate market because I know Mia will keep it real and do everything in her power to help them find exactly what they are looking for.

Julieta S.

I had not understood why one would need an Agent to buy a house, I just had not seen any value / benefit of having a Realtor until I met Mia.

Before a friend referred Mia to me, I had work with multiple agents (mostly from Redfin), they made me feel like I was wasting my time because let’s be real, why do I pay a person for just taking me around to see houses, we can do that easily with Open Houses! But Mia is the real deal! She is savvy, she is so easy to communicate, she is very knowledgeable and she never wastes any minute of your time. She understands the market so well, any advices and strategies she gave us was super helpful! It only took us a month to find the home we love with a super decent price. She has all the connections you need/ want, and good connections! We found a very good lender through Mia, and a super good carpet cleaning service from her. Anytime you need, she will be there and be helpful! I would refer her to all of my friends and families who need a realtor, and I wouldnt see it as a return to Mia’s super star business, but as a gift to my friends to work with the greatest Realtor/ Business! Working with Mia is a privilege!

Kim Pham B.

We were referred to Mia by a friend--and here, as your internet friend, let me refer her to you as well!

Her strategy for selling our place was spot on. We accepted an offer above asking and at our dream price within 6 HOURS of listing. What more could you ask for? The same level of service from seeing if she was the agent for us through closing day. We had a very specific timeline and process for selling our condo, and Mia is probably as close to 'set it and forget it' as you can get. She handled and advocated for things I didn't even know I should be expecting from our buyers, title company, etc. This was my first time selling and she gave great advice, took every call/text, and always showed up when we expected her to. Can't recommend her to you highly enough.

Morgan B.

If you are buying a house in this bonkers market, Mia is the edge you need.

We found her to be immensely knowledgeable and experienced, as well as an absolute professional and a pleasure to work with. She is laser-focused on what YOU want, and provides guidance every step of the way. She helped our family find a home that we love! Thanks, Mia!

Juliana H.

Mia is a SUPERSTAR!

Recommended by my two best friends, I knew she had to be good 🙂 The husband and I were stressed out with experiencing the most chaotic housing market, but Mia kept our eyes on the prize with her patience and proactivity. Not only did she help write up very strong offers for houses (4 TIMES!) that we were pursuing, but she also gave many helpful pointers during our house tours. It was such a joy getting to know Mia and it really felt like making a new friend! Our winning offer was insane. Once we told Mia we loved this house, she contacted the seller's agent faster than a bullet to say we were interested! A domino effect occurred with having our offer reviewed earlier and then ending up winning which all happened in 36 hours. Mia is such a PRO! We would never have gotten to this point if it wasn't for Mia being so driven with helping us buy our dream home. I would highly recommend Mia since she goes above and beyond with her work. You can tell she loves what she does and connects with you on a personal level. THANK YOU MIA!

Mia is an absolute rockstar!

She helped us buy a home, then sell another one, both on a very hot market. We love her communication style, ability to negotiate and get things done, and down to earth attitude.

Stacey R.

Mia was exactly what we needed in a real estate agent when purchasing our first home.

She helped us refine our criteria, set reasonable expectations, and nail down our wants vs. needs. When it came time to put down an offer, she was responsive, quick, and made sure everything was in order. Mia did everything she could to help our first offer get accepted. She also did a great job of helping us navigate the paperwork and put us in touch with an excellent lender. She has a wealth of knowledge, a broad network, and shares local resources related to home buying. Would highly recommend Mia and her team.

Beth W.

Mia helped us buy our first home, and we're not sure we would have gotten the place without her.

She's a total pro with a very "up to the minute" gauge on a very competitive market. And while she'll help keep you realistic within your budget, she also works hard to still make the dreams come true.

Kyle Z.

Anyone would be lucky to work with Mia as their real estate agent.

We bought and sold with Mia in the beginning of 2021. She is an absolute pro and goes above and beyond in every way.

When we were looking to buy a house Mia stood out by calling other agents to get the inside scoop. She was able to quickly build bonds with these agents (or often already knew them) to get us the inside track in the bidding process. We actually ended up with the winning offer on our dream home, even though our offer was $25k lower than a competing all-cash offer.

When it came to selling our home, Mia kept us on track with timing and took the lead on getting our house looking its best. She even painted the fireplace and replaced lighting fixtures to get the house up-to-date. It ended up selling for $100k over the asking price!

In both cases we closed early and Mia kept us in the loop every step of the way. I truly couldn’t be happier with our choice to go with Mia.

Our experience with Mia was top notch.

From start to finish her high level of service and expertise shines through. She helped us buy a new home and sell our old one. Our previous home came with some challenges when it came to finding the right target buyer and price point in a unique neighborhood. Mia was able to stay agile in her marketing and pricing strategy and tap into her deep resources to get the house in perfect shape for sale. Her hard work paid off with competitive offers far above what we had hoped for. She kept us informed through the whole process without overwhelming us with all the behind the scenes details. Mia consistently goes above and beyond to make sure that her clients not only get what they want but feel at ease and happy throughout the whole process.

Elizabeth B.

Mia is AMAZING!

She helped my wife and I sell our condo for $30,000+ over list price just FOUR HOURS after being listed. She's a hawk. She knows the market and isn't afraid to make suggestions to ensure maximum profit for you. She made the whole process easy. Her recommendations, staging, etc. made a world of difference in how well the condo sold. Trust me, you won't regret picking Mia as your agent!

Kelly S. | Yelp Review

Since my last review in 2018, we used her again twice for buying a new house and then selling the old one.

My opinion about her has not changed. She is reliable, always responsive, and makes you feel that you are the top of her priorities. She does not bullshit and get things done. She's a bulldozers and nothing can stop her until she is done with the job. Her assistant Carla is also amazing and they make a great team. Overall, I recommend her to everyone who is thinking about selling/buying a house. The process cannot get any easier when you have her by your side, and I guarantee you will be impressed by her tenacity and awesomeness!

Jenna P. | Yelp Review

My wife and I loved working with Mia.

She's easily the best realtor we've ever worked with and we've already recommended her to several friends/co-workers. We started our search with Mia in the spring, thinking it would take several months to find a place in a competitive Seattle market, but we found a place in less than a week! Mia is very well connected, helping us find a good lender to close quickly as well as several contractors to help us quickly complete projects after we closed. Mia is very honest and easy to communicate with. She's on top of everything. It was common that she would send us critical information on a property before we even thought to ask for it. She's dedicated to her clients and effective at getting offers accepted (she somehow beat an all cash offer at a higher price). We will absolutely work with her in the future and feel lucky to have found Mia.

Cole H. | Yelp Review

I'm so glad I came across Mia's page when I was researching for real estate agents!

She's professional, honest, detail-oriented, and even responsive after work hours and on weekends. For my first offer, Mia was out of town, but she left me in great hands and was still in touch. April, her associate, helped me with a nontraditional listing. This was my first home purchase, so she explained and answered a lot of my questions. Although our offer didn't win, April's estimate of how much it would go for was spot on, and we were really close! On my second offer, Mia put together a well-structured and strong contract that won. Although there were two offers higher than mine, her contract was more clear, and the listing agent had a prior positive experience working with her. Carla, her assistant, was also a huge help! She contacted listing agents for me, worked with them to get my questions answered, and went with me to open houses. When I had major buyer's remorse, Mia helped me with my options. She wasn't concerned about how it would impact her, and focused on wanting what's best for me and what would make me happy. Even after the closing date, they followed up with me and helped me with contractor recommendations. All three of them have been wonderful to work with, and working with them felt like there was an added personal touch. I highly recommend Mia if you're looking to buy or sell in this market!

Jenn F. | Yelp Review

She's whip-smart, deeply experienced, and has your back 100%.

On two occasions, she talked us out of increasing our bid for an overpriced home. She could have taken a higher commission and been done with it, but that's not her goal. Her objective is to make you completely satisfied in your home and get you the best deal possible. Even if that means she has to do twice the amount of work. During the process, she found several off-market or hard-to-find opportunities that we could not have found ourselves. Ultimately, she found and secured us the golden opportunity we were dreaming of. When that was all done, she left us gifts and dropped off a crib that her kids grew out of. I would buy another house to work with Mia again.

Edward N. | Yelp Review

So thankful Mia was recommended to me!

She's quick, savvy, and well known in her field. Personable and professional in all the best ways Walked me through every process as a first time buyer. Felt like she had my back during the whole experience. Highly recommend!

Calle J. | Yelp Review

This is a two part review, one for selling and one for buying (I used her for both).

For my buying experience Mia made me feel secure when pricing and the upgrades I needed to sell my condo in Lake City. I must admit I was apprehensive about the price she put forward but I was wrong, so very very wrong. My condo sold in 4 DAYS for ABOVE ASKING! This was a huge relief since I didn't know what the market was doing. Through the entire experience she and her assistant Carla had a game plan and goal and they achieved and exceeded expectations. I want to add that she made the sale in the middle of having a child, nothing slows this lady down. As for the purchase of my new Mia absolutely crushed for my wife and I. We found the perfect fixer upper in the Ravenna neighborhood that we wanted. Mia walked us through the entire process and told us what the real sale price would be, she was correct. In fact she was so correct that we were able to out bid the other people by $1000. I have absolute faith and confidence in her as a real estate agent. She is by far one of the smartest and motivated people you will work with. She is a bulldog on the sale and magician on the buying. You can not go wrong with Mia and her team.

Walker A. | Yelp Review

Mia is a fantastic person to work with and we would 100% work with her again!

We worked with her to purchase our first home (after years of renting) during the very busy selling period earlier this year (Spring 2021). The single-family home market was very competitive (with houses going 20-30% over asking price), but Mia patiently walked us through the entire process, and was always quick to respond whenever we had any questions or concerns. One of the things we loved when touring homes with her were her honest and helpful insights about layout issues and features that might be problematic given our needs (plus estimates of how much they might cost to renovate). When it came time to put together offers on homes, Mia was always honest about our chances and the competitiveness of our offers, but never pressured us into an offer we were uncomfortable with (i.e., especially when it came to waiving contingencies/considering escalation clauses/etc.). She made the process as seamless and low-stress as possible every step of the way and we ended up with a beautiful home in Wallingford thanks to her!

Kristin S. | Google Review

Mia handled the sale of our home while we were living out of state.

She had recommendations for upgrades which not only fit our budget but definitely attracted more buyers. Every single aspect of the transaction was seamless. She’s very in tune with the market and has an impressive network for just about anything needed to prep a house for sale. Most importantly, we just really liked working with her. We felt calm and comfortable during what could have otherwise been a stressful experience.

Karen S.

Mia helped us buy our house in 2017 - and sell it three years later for a 30% return.

When we wanted to sell, we were juggling four kids and two jobs. We handed Mia the keys and she made it ALL happen seamlessly. I truly cannot recommend Mia enough.
