This is a passion job for me and I feel truly fortunate to have the opportunity to help buyers in such an important step in their lives. I\u2019m straight-forward with clients and will help educate them on the market, individual homes, and whether the home is a good decision (based on everything they\u2019ve told me).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What are your top 3 pro tips?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/creating-your-wishlist\/?utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Set a list<\/a> of must-haves and nice-to-haves. From there, take a look at sold homes in the neighborhood you\u2019re shopping in to see if what you\u2019re searching for is realistic. (I say this so you don\u2019t get burnt out in the process. Setting realistic expectations is crucial in real estate)<\/li><li>Explore other neighborhoods. The Seattle Metro area has so many great places to live that targeting only one area really closes off a lot of great opportunities. <\/li><li>Focus less on the possible appreciation of the home and more on what it will be like to live there. We have a strong market here in Seattle and most homes will do well over a 5-10 year period, so make sure it\u2019s a place you\u2019ll be happy to be in (home, neighborhood, lifestyle, etc.). <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>When did you first get your real estate license? What inspired you to get it?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>July 2019. I had joined Flyhomes just a few weeks prior and was ecstatic to join this company and start my real estate journey. I had followed regional and national trends for some time (in both residential and commercial) and knew this was the industry for me<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Do you focus on a special area (such as new builds or investment properties)?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Most of the homes I sell are single-family houses and townhomes, spread out over a good swath of the area (Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, Lynnwood, Everett, etc.). I\u2019ve sold new construction homes, and some much older. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What neighborhoods are you an expert in?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Most of Seattle, and much of the greater Eastside. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Where do you live? Why did you choose to live there?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>I just purchased a condo in Pioneer Square. I love the density and charm of the neighborhood and ease of access to downtown, lots of shops and restaurants, I-5, I-90, and it\u2019s a quick walk to the Flyhomes HQ (when we open back up!!). <\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>Have you worked in fields other than real estate?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>I was a recruiter for about 5 years before joining. I had split my time over accounting\/finance and tech positions. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What are you passionate about aside from real estate?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>I love to travel and can\u2019t wait for everything to open back up. I go on trips with friends, my girlfriend, and family, and will literally go just about anywhere as soon as we\u2019re able to. <\/p>\n\n\n<p><strong>What do you love about working at Flyhomes?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Flyhomes has allowed me to launch a career in real estate that I wouldn\u2019t be afforded anywhere else. We always do our absolute best to treat the customer right (whether that\u2019s a client, an internal customer, a vendor, etc.) and it\u2019s something that\u2019s much needed in commerce.<\/p>\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/introducing-flyhomie-andy\/?utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get to know Andy even better<\/a>. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/profile\/FlyhomesAndy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>See reviews from Andy&#8217;s clients. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Andy Randles WA DOL #113255<\/p>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Want to learn more about buying a home in the Seattle area? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Check out the latest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flyhomes.com\/blog\/category\/market-updates\/seattle\/?utm_medium=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">local market reports<\/a>. <\/p>\n<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"calendly_utm_post_id\" value=\"5605\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"calendly_utm_post_title\" value=\"Meet Your Client Advisor: Andy Randles, Seattle\" \/>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s the first thing a new client should know about you?&nbsp; I love what I do and I love real estate.
