The sale ranked in the top 1% for price per square foot in the neighborhood.

Kirkland Home | Sold by Allison
Allison guided six siblings through the emotional sale of their longtime family home while transitioning their mother into assisted living. The 1970s property needed major updates, but the family lacked upfront funds. Allison helped them secure $130,000 in deferred financing for strategic renovations, managing the entire process with expertise. The result: a stunning transformation and a sale price $420,000 above the as-is estimate. More than a transaction, it was a meaningful closing chapter made possible by thoughtful planning and the right support.

A one-day sale, $200,000 (12.1%) over asking, and a final price ranking in the top 4% of Montlake sales by price per square foot. With its natural beauty and prime location, the home was transformed into a standout opportunity for local buyers.
