Designated Broker, Founder & CEO — RexMont Real Estate · WA Lic. #27660
Adriano leads RexMont Real Estate — the most-reviewed real estate brokerage in Seattle and the Eastside. 1,200+ closed transactions, $1B+ in production, and 1,241 five-star Google reviews.
Every agent claims to be a top Bothell listing agent. What actually predicts your outcome is verifiable: pricing accuracy on homes like yours, list-to-sale-price performance, marketing execution, and negotiation record. All of it can be checked before you sign anything — this page shows you how.
I am Adriano Tori, founder and Designated Broker of RexMont Real Estate, WA Lic. #27660. RexMont has 1,241 5-star reviews and $1B+ closed across 1,200+ transactions across Bothell and the Eastside. I would rather compete on verifiable record than adjectives, so this page gives you the same checklist whether you interview RexMont or anyone else.
Bothell-specific fluency is checkable in two minutes: ask any candidate how Canyon Park townhomes, established Westhill and Maywood plats, and the downtown corridor's newer stock price differently — and which county your parcel's prorations run through. An agent fluent in the city's two-county, multi-segment structure prices accurately; one who quotes a citywide average does not.
The interview that exposes weak listing agents
Make every candidate commit to specifics: What will you spend marketing this home? What is your list-to-sale ratio on homes like mine? What comps produced your price recommendation, and what happens if the market disagrees? Since the NAR settlement, how do you advise on buyer-agent concessions at Bothell price points? Strong agents answer in numbers and examples.
Verify independently with the Washington Department of Licensing and recent seller reviews on homes like yours. Then read the listing agreement: fee, term, marketing commitments in writing, cancellation terms. A confident broker lets you leave if the service disappoints — reluctance on cancellation is a signal in itself.
Where RexMont fits — and how to verify it
One designated broker accountable for pricing, launch, and negotiation on every listing. Preparation triage that spends your money only where it returns. Professional media on every listing, full NWMLS exposure, and a written net-proceeds projection before you sign — so the fee conversation happens against your wire-out number, not a percentage in the abstract.
The record is public: 1,241 5-star reviews and $1B+ closed. Verify it the way this page tells you to verify anyone — then interview us against whoever else is on your list. Start with your numbers on the cost-to-sell page or a pricing opinion via the Bothell home-value page.
FAQ
Choosing a Bothell listing agent — FAQs
How do I find the best listing agent in Bothell?
Verify instead of browsing: license status and history with the Washington Department of Licensing, recent seller reviews for homes like yours, and list-to-sale-price ratio plus days on market on their last ten listings. Strong agents hand you the data.
What should I ask a Bothell listing agent before signing?
What will you spend marketing my home, specifically? What is your list-to-sale ratio on comparable homes? How did you arrive at your price? What are the cancellation terms? The pattern of the answers — specific versus vague — is the tell.
Does neighborhood fluency matter in Bothell?
Yes — Canyon Park townhomes, established plats like Westhill and Maywood, and the downtown corridor's newer stock price and market differently, and the city spans two counties. Ask for a walkthrough of the last three sales on blocks like yours.
How much do top Bothell agents charge?
Commission is negotiated — typically 4.5%–6% total. The better comparison is projected net under each broker's plan; pricing and negotiation quality are worth multiples of the fee spread.
Does the biggest team mean the best result?
Not automatically — large teams can hand your listing to a junior agent after the founder wins the pitch. Ask who runs pricing, who negotiates offers, and who you call when the inspection response is due at 9pm.
