Client Testimonials

We had searched for a home for almost a year. We experienced a few hurdles throughout this time and Diana and Bruce were very helpful through the entire process. They taught us many things along the way and always supported our needs and concerns. Our experience buying our first home would not have been the same without them. I feel blessed to have had the chance to work with them, and highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home.

Bruce and Diana Holbrook are the nicest most honest realtors I have met. They showed us lots of properties and stood by our side through the whole process. I will use them again when buying our next home.

After four brutal winters winters in Spokane, we decided to relocate to the west side of the state. Our timing couldn’t have been worse. The pandemic had just started to spread in Washington when we began our search. Diana and Bruce patiently showed us all over the Olympia area pointing out the pros and cons of different parts of the county. We put in offers on a couple of homes, but lost out to competing bids. We returned to Spokane very disappointed. Weeks later we found a property online but were unable to return due to the quarantine. Diana and Bruce toured the home and sent us thorough videos of of the home as well as the surrounding area. We took a huge gamble and bought the house without seeing it in person. The first time we saw the house was two days before our furniture arrived. We were greatly relieved to find the house just as their videos had shown and their thorough descriptions of the property and the surrounding neighborhoods. I can’t recommend Diana and Bruce highly enough!

The Holbrooks helped us sell our small farm and buy our new farm. They were very patient with us as we spent months planning and deliberating. Both Bruce and Diana are pleasantly helpful, understanding, and knowledgeable. They were fast to respond and were always flexible to meet with us. The Holbrooks definitely made the buying and selling process more enjoyable. They are a must have on your side when buying or selling rural property!

We were relocating from Colorado to Washington. We were not sure what area we would buy a property, but Diana and Bruce were happy to help wherever we decided to settle. Diana had no idea how serious we were at first, but she never treated us like we were a waste of time. When we decided we wanted to look on Bainbridge Island, they made the long drive to walk through half a dozen homes. Once we decided to make an offer, Diana and Bruce were more than helpful every step of the way. We are thrilled with our new home and would not hesitate to do business with Diana and Bruce again. Truly good people are hard to come by these days. We feel grateful that we connected with Diana and Bruce!

As a first-time home buyer making a purchase on my own, I was nervous about the process. I was referred to the Holbrook’s by a friend because I was looking for a horse property in Thurston County. I wanted a home that was, for the most part, move-in ready, with flat and dry acreage for horses. With my budget, this request was challenging, and Bruce and Diana stuck with me for over 2 years as I waited for the right place to come along. As soon as the right property was listed, the process moved fast. Communication was excellent, and they made sure I knew what was happening and what the next steps would be. Bruce and Diana were WONDERFUL to work with. I highly recommend them and would work with them again in a heartbeat!

We had a very specific type of property we were searching for. I wanted the horse facilities to be top-notch and safe while being large enough to fit my breeding operation. My husband’s goals were to have a nice house close to town. Needless to say, those criteria are pretty hard to fit, and Bruce and Diana spent a lot of time with us taking us from property to property very patiently. They didn’t seem to care about how much time it took to find us the right place, they were simply intent on finding us the right place which was the right approach for our needs. And when our new home hit the market, they knew right away that this was the place for us, and insisted that we see it as soon as possible. They worked really hard to make sure everything fell into place, did an amazing job marketing and selling our original house, and worked for a smooth transition from one place to the other for us. They are amazing and our new place is great. I highly recommend them.

LauraElma, WA

Bruce and Diana worked miracles for us during our search and purchase, and the sale of our home. They were committed to finding the right place for us and passionate about the search. They marketed the house we were selling aggressively and hit the nail on the head in pricing our place to sell while still getting the value from the sale that we needed. We developed a real and true friendship with them as well.

There are no other realtors that I would want to work with. I’d give them more stars if I could.

Bruce and Diana helped us house hunt and find the perfect house for us. They had patience as we took our time to find the right house. They worked on our schedule and they were always available to answer our questions or to show us houses. They were pro-active in placing bids and had suggestions on what we should do based on the economy. Once we finally got our bid accepted they helped when needed. They set up all the inspections, dealt with issues that arose, they are readily there throughout the whole process. We were in good hands and they made the experience as stress free as possible. I highly recommend them.

Diana and Bruce Holbrook helped us find our new home in southwestern Washington. We probably rank among their most difficult clients, and the entire process took over a year, but Diana and Bruce always kept a positive attitude, patiently listened to our questions/concerns, and responded within an hour to our texts and phone calls, even on weekends and evenings. We HIGHLY recommend Diana and Bruce to anyone looking for a real estate agent!

They are the best!

JeriShelton, WA

Diana and Bruce just help me buy my first house. It was a very difficult process but they stuck with it 100% and were always there for me. I would recommend them to anybody looking into buying property or a home.

LillyMcCleary, WA

Bruce and Diana are amazing realtors! They not only go the extra mile, but are totally hard working and dedicated to helping their clients find the best home possible. We looked in several counties in Washington state, before finding the perfect horse property. Along the way, being locals, they had good advice on horse keeping in wet weather, and were happy to share their experience. Since they are farmers, they really understand what to look for, and what questions to ask and answer. I was very happy to have come across them, they shared a wealth of knowledge, always returned calls and texts and really helped us find a great home that is perfect for us, as well as the horses. If I could give them ten stars, I would!

KamriElma, WA

My husband and I feel extremely lucky to have been referred to Diana and Bruce Holbrook to find our dream home in Washington. The first realtor we were referred to never even called us back.  Diana called us back in a matter of minutes.  She had houses for us to look at in just two days. We described to Diana and Bruce what we were looking for. They were serious about finding a house that met our needs.

The end result was finding our dream home in Chehalis. We absolutely love it. Bruce and Diana are not just our realtors, they are now our friends.  It only took two days to find our dream home.  Diana and Bruce are very friendly, easy going, and really care about helping you find the perfect house.  We did!

NancyChehalis, WA

We are very pleased with our new home. Thanks to Holbrook Country Properties we were able to close the deal in time for the holidays. They kept us updated on the progress being made throughout the entire process, and directed us to the proper agencies to answer more specific questions, such as water quality and average power bills for the property. In addition, both Diana and Bruce are very personable, we will be inviting them to our summer barbecues.

ShereeOnalaska, WA

Bruce and Diana were so helpful throughout my buying experience! They were able to guide me through determining what I really needed, plus my top wants, and showed me houses that worked with my budget and the criteria I’d set, refining those as we went. They were always very quick to respond to my questions, no matter what means of communication I used–phone, text, or e-mail.

I love my new home, and I won’t hesitate to recommend Bruce and Diana to friends and family.
