It was great to work with Laverne again. He was with us for the purchase of our house in 2013 and again when we sold it in 2025. He really knows the business very well and helped us to navigate what turned out to be a sale with a number of surprises and challenges. His recommendation of a pre-inspection was especially helpful in avoiding surprises and getting an offer. He backed us up all the way and things turned out very well. We're looking for a home in Spokane now and I wish we had him to work with over here.
LaVerne was so great to work with and I’m very happy I was paired with him throughout our process. He was honest, authentic and trustworthy which is very important to have in someone when considering making a purchase. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
LaVerne has helped us buy and sell several properties. Each and every time has been an exceptional experience. LaVerne is very knowledgeable about the market. He has gone above and beyond in his research and assistance. He has always been honest and realistic with our expectations. Yet each and every time he has managed to under promise and over deliver. He is as responsive as one could be no matter the time or day. His guidance has never strayed us in the direction. I couldn't recommend him enough to anyone looking to purchase or sell a property.
LaVerne helped my family find our dream home in a neighborhood we had completed overlooked! He is extremely knowledgable, respectful and honest. He was able to make our first time home buying experience extremely pleasant! I highly recommend LaVerne and will continue to work with him on my future home purchases.
Today was one of the biggest decision making Day of my life. I am going to buy my first home. Laverne's contact info was given to me by a close friend. I picked up the phone and dialed his number, from the first introduction over the phone to the moment he walked away from our face to face meeting this morning. In his presence I felt relaxed, like I was important and so we're all my questions. Not only did I officially get my own realestate agent today. I was given a chance to enjoy the moment by feeling comfortable and we'll informed on the what's next party train... I'm super excited. Thank you Laverne for being amazing.
LaVerne helped me and my fiancé buy a house and then sell the two houses we had previously been living in, all within a six month period. I cannot say enough about his professionalism and skill in helping to minimize the stress that would normally be associated with three real estate transactions. He acted quickly to keep the process moving in all three cases, knowing that every day increased the financial burden on us. He truly understands the buyer experience and worked to protect us through the emotional ups and downs. LaVerne is a master negotiator and will stop at nothing to get your deal done. We greatly appreciate his sense of humor and friendship and would not hesitate for a second to recommend him to others.
I started working with him at Fall 2012 after receiving very high recommendations from my co-workers (basically company mailing list). He got us a home in late spring when the market was extremely hot and favorable to sellers. After looking over at least 50 houses together with him, we got the house we loved the most at just asking price! Moreover, he negotiated to get us credit enough to cover the closing cost. Considering most other people had to pay 5-15% over asking price, and take out inspection and financial contingencies from their offers in this market, it is amazing what he could do for us.<br/><br/>More about him: 1. He is very honest and tries hard to get us a home we are happy with (no buyer’s remorse). Great personality as well. 2. He accommodated my schedule and did not mind coming at my work place for documents signings (we had to do this multiple times due to bidding war). 3. His documents are impeccable and include all the contingencies to protect the buyers. Everything was smooth in our offer/negotiation/transaction/closing. 4. He also spent a ton of time on educating me as a first home buyer. I asked all kinds of questions (even politically sensitive ones) and he answered without making any uncomfortable moments. 5. His knowledge is not limited to some materials you can find from internet. He knows lots of hidden history about communities, building materials and builders. 6. Never felt pushy. In fact, it was him who expected it would be a long process for us to find out what we really wanted. 7. I can trust him of what he says and does. I can definitely feel that he works for his clients behalf.<br/><br/>He is the best agent of any sorts I have ever encountered and one of the smartest men. I am currently living in this new home for more than a month and very happy with every process and this home.
I can say nothing but good things about LaVerne PIke as a Real Estate Professional. He is truly a professsional at what he does. He was always willing to meet us to show us a condo we wanted to see. He also truly cares about his clients and works hard to find his client the home or property they are looking for. He has a great sense of humor and a caring personality. He truly enjoys making people happy and has not just been a Real Estate Professional to us, but also we have developed a friendship with him. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to him if they are either looking for a home or wish to list their home.
LaVerne has always made himself readily available at all times in working around my schedule. He has twice successfully both sold and made a home purchase for me within the last 10 years. He was born and raised in the Washington state and knows the areas very well. He is a good listener, makes valuable suggestions, and researches whatever he may not know. I would recommend him to anyone.<br/><br/>Alice Hackbart
