“Karl and Julie, and the rest of the team were fantastic at representing our wants and needs throughout this search-for-a-new-home-journey. From the beginning, they ensured we were well-informed, met us exactly where we were in the buying process, keen on the specifics of our needs, and responsive to our questions. The Royston Team exemplified professionalism and kindness, making home buying a worthwhile experience. Thank you everyone for helping us find the right home, at the right time!!!

“Karl was awesome! He was recommended by two close friends and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He helped my wife and I buy our first home walking us through each step of the process even though we were still stationed across the country. He toured the homes we were interested in, taking videos and helping us to determine what was best for us. He is very helpful for anyone in the military who is PCSing and he will ensure you get the best customer service and the best deal for your home!”

“Karl and his team helped make the home buying process so much easier. As a first time home buyer I was so stressed about everything. They answered all of our questions and made sure we understood everything before moving to the next step. There was never any uncertainty in the entire process. I highly recommend this team and will forever recommend them.“

“Carli and the Royston Team are simply the best. I have worked with Carli a few times. She is so knowledgeable in all aspects of her work. She listens to me, advises me, and supports me all the way. She is my first and only choice when it comes to real estate. She’s also an exceptional person, I truly enjoy every conversation with her. The Royston Team was perfect for my last transaction.”

“To put it simply there is no finer real estate team around. This is my second purchase with Karl in about two years. That being said, Karl and I have put in about 6 different offers on rehab properties that were mostly accepted but did not pass inspection. Despite all of this he always is happy to find out the details on a property (I have had him look at some very interesting properties). His keen knowledge of the local market and trends helps unlock the hidden gems. I look forward to many more deals in the years to come with Karl and his team. If you are looking for a top performer and the ethical person work with the Royston Team!!”

“Carli is the best! She has a genuine love for the Kitsap county area and I couldn’t ask for a better realtor to work with because of that. She has all the local knowledge you could ask for. She is very responsive, and quickly understood what I was looking for in a new home, and didn’t waste time with random suggestions. I wasn’t always able to make in-person showings, but Carli went above and beyond with pictures and videos as needed. I look forward to working with Carli again!”

“My partner and I had a wonderful experience working with Carli to buy our home. Her wealth of local knowledge was a huge bonus, as we were coming from out of the area. She was always responsive to our questions, and happy to do video tours for us if we weren’t able to make the drive up. I would recommend Carli to anyone looking to buy or sell in Kitsap county!”

“We had such a great experience with Karl and Julie. They were incredibly responsive, flexible, and supportive throughout. We really valued their expertise and felt that they were serving our best interests; they never glossed over issues in a prospective house or pushed us to buy. When we finally found the perfect home, they made the process so easy and kept us in the loop at every step. We couldn’t have had a better team with us and we highly recommend them!”

“Karl and Julie (and the whole Royston team!) were incredibly helpful and patient with us through the home buying process. In this market it took some time to find the perfect house for us, but Karl and Julie were constantly by our side and ready for a showing at a moments notice!”

“Carli helped us buy our home 10 years ago. We were so impressed with her honesty in helping us purchase a home that was the best fit for us. So, when it came time to look for a new home and help sell our house, we knew exactly who we wanted representing us. We called her out of the blue because we saw an open house that we liked and wanted to get her honest feedback. She met with us the next day and we discussed next steps that would be good for us to take. The next day she called and told up the seller got a full price cash offer with no inspection. After thinking about it overnight, we decided to try a long shot and offer just a slight bit higher with a loan contingency. She called the seller agent and told us we might have a shot but the owner wanted to make a decision that day, so we had to act fast. Carli got us in touch with a loan officer and got him the necessary documents to make a legitimate offer. In parallel, Carli worked to get an offer written up that would have the best chance of getting a deal. She thoroughly explained some of the risks of certain clauses, which was much appreciated. She definitely went beyond our expectations and our offer was ultimately accepted. She diligently followed up on every detail to make sure we had all the pertinent information. Then it came time to put our home on the market. She did a full market appraisal and had a stager to provide advice to show our house. We busily did what was recommended and also told our neighbors that we were moving. It turned out they gave an offer before we went to market. Because it was “off market”, she negotiated an offer that was higher than the initial discussions. Needless to say, we were impressed with her diligence and honesty both times we’ve worked with her. We definitely would call on her again, if and when for any future real estate transactions.“

“Karl and his team were a fantastic group to work with on finding our new home! The were extremely knowledgeable, caring of our needs and excellent communicators at all steps of our home buying experience. We truly trusted them with finding us our perfect home, even while ourselves could not make the trip out to Bremerton to view the homes that they put together for us. The went above and beyond with customer service for us and catered to us making sure we were appraised at all times while beeing thousands of miles away. Not many realtors are good at this, except Karl and his team are!
Thank you!”

“We cannot thank Carli and the Royston team enough for their exceptional work in selling our house. We are a military family moving internationally, and from start to finish, Carli’s professionalism, expertise, and dedication made a seemingly overwhelming process easy. She guided us through every step of the process with care and attention to detail, ensuring that our home was showcased in the best possible light. Her outstanding, strategic approach and market knowledge led to a quick sale at top dollar! If you are looking to sell (or buy) a house with confidence, ease, and at great price – look no further than Carli and Royston team!”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“After more than a year on the market and 2 different realtors I took a break and removed my home from the market. A month later I interviewed 4 realtors to list my house. Carli came prepared with all documentation, comps, previous inspections and an attitude that instantly instilled confidence in me. Her staging company was top notch and there was a full price, all cash offer on the 3rd day of the listing. Carli took care of everything from ordering the septic inspection to arranging for a foundation certification. The woman is a force of nature! She is extremely competent, professional, supportive, and always kept in contact to let me know what was going on along the way. I am forever grateful to Carli and will recommend her and her team every chance I get!”

“The Royston Team are an excellent group of individuals that make the process of buying a new home a joy. Karl came highly recommended to my husband and I, and we can see why. From the moment we expressed interest in working with him, Karl made sure he got to understand our needs and did everything he could to find us a house with all the criteria we were looking for. We’re new to the area, and he made us feel confident in buying a house from across the country. Julie was an amazing help to us as well. She provided us with a virtual tour and was so thorough, we knew exactly what to expect. She took lead with the final steps while Karl was out of town, and was so kind, knowledgeable, and helpful to us. The whole team makes you feel valued as clients. Throughout the process, there was great communication from the whole team, and they were so helpful in coordinating anything that needed to get done. I cannot recommend them enough and am so pleased by our experience working with them.”

“I worked with Carli Ryen to sell my house. She was an outstanding agent. She walked me through the process and was there every step of the way. She always got back to me quickly when I had question. With her help we were able to get my house listed pretty quickly and had our first offer within just a couple days. She made the process quick and easy. I appreciate all her contacts and knowledge. She helped ensure the whole process went smoothly. I highly recommend Carli and The Royston team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house!”

She has an amazing network to get needed items done. Such a pro. She absolutely cared about me, the seller. She is trustworthy and kind.. Thank you so much Carli.”

“Karl Royston was invaluable in not only our search for a home but also representing and advocating for us as buyers when we still lived several states away. He provided detailed video tours which were instrumental in our decision on which house we wanted to purchase. Even though we were over 1,000 miles away, we felt at ease knowing we were in Karl’s hands. He is very knowledgeable and always willing to listen to our multitudes of questions. If he did not know the answer offhand, he diligently investigated and provided us information and kept us up to date. He even provided a list of recommended vendors so we could immediately start working on our new home right after closing. This is the sixth home that we have purchased (first in Washington) and it was a breeze, as Karl ensured that the entire process was as smooth as possible. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better agent — Karl is genuine, trustworthy, communicative, and professional. I would highly recommend the Royston Team to anyone looking to buy or sell their home in Kitsap County.”

“Shari/The Royston Team recently sold my home. I would give them a 10* rating if it were available. Shari/Team know their stuff! We met, they presented a plan and timeline, started executing immediately and kept me posted each step of the way. House sold in 2 days with multiple over-asking/cash offers….all due to their strategic marketing, imo. What can be a stressful process (selling one’s home) was So Much Less Stressful due to Shari‘s management of the process. She has all her ducks lined up and providing answers to you before you can even ask a question. She/Team are Top Drawer. In Summary: Professional, respectful, experienced, knowledgable, great communication skills, and A++ Project Management! You won’t find better. THANK YOU SHARI and TEAM. You guys are wonderful!”

“We highly recommend working with the Royston Team if you are looking to purchase a home! They were so patient and attentive as they helped us find our dream home. Karl understands all that goes into being in the military, so it was nice to have someone on our side who could advocate for our situation. It was also such a pleasure working working with Julie. She was always ready and happy to show us tons of homes on short notice and was so kind/down to earth to be around. Their whole team was responsive and truly went above and beyond for us. Because of them, we were able to buy the perfect house near the water as our first home and we are forever grateful for them. They are the ones to work with if you need a realtor in Kitsap County!”

“Have user the Royston Team for our first home buying experience over 7 years ago and have come back to them over and over with the same experience. Would not choose a different realtor group ever in the kitsap/Mason county areas. Highly recommended for their professionalism and their knowledge of the housing market in the local area.“

“We had a wonderful experience with the Royston Team! Both Shari and Carli were great to work with, and very thorough in everything they did. It helped us to rest at ease that all the details would be covered with the sale of our house. We’ve had a long-standing relationship with the Roystons, from the purchase of our 1st home in 2018, until the sale of our home, as we moved out of state, in 2022, and would highly recommend their team to anyone in search of a home, or looking to sell theirs. Thanks again, Royston Team!”
