Whether you’re ready to enter the real estate market and purchase your first home, excited to sell your current home and upgrade to one that better suits your lifestyle, or purchase an investment property, we’re here to guide you.

At Stoop & Gable Homes, we’re your biggest advocate — we’re with you every step of the way to answer your questions, take the reins, and create an enjoyable, stress-free experience you’d do again.

We're in it for you.

FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE’RE A PEOPLE-FIRST COMPANY. THAT’S WHY WE ALWAYS LEAD WITH EDUCATION.

We care about numbers and data. Our main goal is to demystify the process so you’re fully educated in every decision you make every time you sign the solid line — which is a lot (we’ll bring the pens!).

We’ll break down the industry terminology into digestible language that allows you to quickly understand the process. Knowledge is power, and we want you to feel empowered to make smart investments under our guidance.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We were first-time buyers, and she was always patient with us and did an excellent job explaining the ins and outs of purchasing. She is very responsive to requests and is always willing to go the extra mile to get information and connect with seller's agents.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

She was incredibly patient and thorough in answering all of my questions and explaining how everything worked! I especially appreciated how she helped me think about potential offers without pressuring me to put one in on a house I didn’t love, or to offer more than I was comfortable with. I ended up purchasing a home I absolutely adore without an ounce of buyer’s remorse. I’m so glad I had Sarah in my c...

— Grace F. | Sarah guided me through the purchase of my first home.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

We worked with Alex who exceeded expectations in all aspects of the transaction. Alex managed all the logistics of the home repairs, preparation for market, marketing and sale.

We were so very fortunate to have Alex Fotouhi as our Realtor® for both buying AND selling our home.

— Tereas K. | We were so very fortunate to have Alex Fotouhi as our Realtor.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Alex was super at developing a pricing strategy that worked, starting with timing the listing to avoid putting the condo on the market too early. Timing was the issue that my wife and I found the most difficult as the Seattle market was beginning a downturn after a very hot period. Alex patiently walked us through the arguments for a delay in listing the property. Similarly, we had hoped to sale the pro...

— Bruce G. | Alex was super at developing a pricing strategy that worked.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

My partner and I were first time homebuyers when we started working with Lauren. She was not only extremely mindful of our inexperience in the real estate world , but she also came prepared with resources and guiding language to help us understand the scope of work that needed to be done.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Sarah was incredibly flexible and always available to work with us, even on our very aggressive timeline. She also came up with a winning strategy to help us get our offer accepted in a very competitive market.

— Genevieve H. | We wouldn't have our house if Sarah hadn't been our realtor.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Alex and Lauren are a great team that helped guide my sister and I through important decisions on the best way to sell our home. All my friends oohed and aahed at the staging while potential buyers lined up for two hours to get in the open house. Not only do they have the know-how, great instincts and energy to go all-in, they also went on the emotional journey with us as we were selling our childhood h...

— Kim D. & Erin C. | They outdid themselves gathering bids and contractors who swiftly got the house ready to show well.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Working with Alex was truly the best real estate experience we could have asked for, especially as first time home buyers who didn’t know what we were doing when we got started! She took the time to get to know exactly what we were looking for, answered all of our questions, and was always incredibly helpful, quick to respond, and communicative.

— Heather S. | Working with Alex made the entire home purchasing process so smooth and we are so happy with our home purchase that she made happen.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

She makes the most complicated topics incredibly simple and gives you the tools to make decisions confidently. She doesn’t make decisions for you, but instead enables you to make awesome decisions for yourself. I could not recommend Sarah highly enough. I would work with her 1000 times over.

— Daniel V. | Sarah was unbelievable.
