About Leah Schulz

With over 30 years in the real estate industry, I bring a depth of experience that's hard to match. Half of that time was spent as a mortgage banker — a background I still consider my "superpower" when serving my clients. I've owned up to 8 rental buildings at once, totaling 24 doors, and I've been on every side of a real estate transaction: flipping homes, buying at foreclosure auction, and building from the ground up.

I'm a proud Puget Sound native, though I've lived in or explored nearly every corner of Washington State. My school years were spent in Walla Walla, where I learned that the hardest-working people on earth are farmers — and where I also developed a deep appreciation for great wine.

After three decades in this business, I've developed specific, proven strategies for my clients. If you're selling, there are things you simply must do to get top dollar — and I'll tell you exactly what they are. If you're buying in today's competitive market, you need to be prepared to move fast and make your offer stand out. I'll make sure you're ready.

I believe in honesty, delivered straight — and usually with a bit of humor along the way. Whether you have questions about a specific neighborhood, want to talk strategy, or are just beginning to explore your options, I'm here to help you reach your real estate goals.

Here are some other interesting stats:

Im not just a transactional agent—my experience spans:
