Sally Farrell - Testimonials

Tell Us Your Story

Diana Burgon and Sally Farrell were the perfect choice to sell my mother’s condominium.

I always interview a number of realtors when selling properties. Diana and Sally’s valuation was spot on and in this case, happened to be significantly above what other agents suggested. They have an intimate knowledge of the market and the ability to consider multiple variables beyond numbers, statistics and comparables. More importantly, they were compassionate, patient and extremely helpful with my mother’s transition from her home to a seniors' residence. They handled the offers and negotiations professionally and made an emotionally challenging situation stress-free and easy! We couldn’t have been happier with the process and the results.

Diana and her partner Sally are a terrific team that I have worked with quite often and I highly recommend them if you are buying or selling in Whatcom and Skagit Counties.

It seems to me that a 5-out-of-5 star rating would be assigned only to agents who are completely knowledgeable about real estate legal requirements, who know the local characteristics of neighborhoods, who are brilliant about realistic pricing, and who are also consistently helpful and positive.

If these characteristics define a 5-star agent, Diana Burgon gets 6 or more stars. Diana’s helpful inventiveness in quickly dealing with the inevitable problems that arise in the buy/selling process is so very practical and at the same time, is completely compassionate. She really gets it that a seller is leaving a home rather than a house, and a buyer wants a home, rather than a house. Diana is extraordinary, and anyone who is lucky enough to have her as agent will never be able to thank her sufficiently.

Sally and Diana helped me sell my home in November 2022.

They were incredibly helpful and responsive, which made for a quick and seamless sale of my house. I was on a timeline as I had just purchased a new home and they helped get the house ready to sell and on the market very quickly. Their many years of experience made sure I got the most for my home in short amount of time. I knew very little about selling a home and they were happy to answer any question, no matter how trivial. I would highly recommend Sally and Diana for either buying or selling, they were a joy to work with.

Sally is an excellent real estate agent.

She listens really well and is very responsive. I appreciate her patience and enthusiasm. She helped me find a perfect place for my dog and me.

Sally was absolutely wonderful!

Great communication- she walked us through the process in advance, gave us timelines, followed-up when she said she would. This was our first time selling a home and she and Diana made it incredibly easy and even fun!

Sally walked us through a very difficult and complicated transaction, simultaneously selling and buying homes.

She stood by us when the going got tough and we were still pushing forward. She was always enthusiastic, pleasant, encouraging and accommodating to our evolving needs. We feel that we got the best possible outcome and will always be grateful to Sally for getting us here. If you need a great realtor, Sally and her team are the bomb!

J & R

I interviewed realtors and chose Sally and Diana because they were a great team and I felt like I could trust and communicate with them.

I had met Sally years ago when Matthew was looking for houses. I respected that she showed us dozens of homes and there was no high pressure and she never made a dime back then (and was still pleasant and great to work with)! They are honest, and good people. They always gave us their honest opinion and then would say “it’s your call,, we work for you”!! I recommend them to anyone looking for a enjoyable realtor experience.

Jim & Sheri

Buying a home these days is difficult and scary.

Over the past five years Sally and her team have stood by our side, guided us and held our hands as we went through the grueling process of buying our first home. After several failed attempts we finally closed on our new home a week ago. We could not have done it without you, Burgon Farrell! You are the best!

Steve & Jessica

I found Sally attentive, and very helpful in the process of buying this condo and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to buy real estate.

When you find an incredible professional who works for you during difficult and complex transactions, you keep them close for the next time.

I've used Sally Farrell for three different transactions, two sales and one purchase. None of these were simple transactions. At times, we were both learning about real estate nuances, but Sally is an innate teacher as well. Each time a new aspect of my recent sale needed clarification, Sally and Diana were available for information and support. If, or when, I need to purchase again, I'll be reaching out to them once again.

We had a wonderful experience working with Sally!

She is super knowledgeable of the Bellingham area, was quick to find properties that met our needs and meet us for showings, and really had our interests at heart. Buying in the current market has been very stressful and she made the process easier and we are lucky to have been able to work with her. 100% recommend.

Heather & Greg

Sally helped us get our dream house in a very competitive market.

She listened to what we were looking for and as soon as the house was listed she called us immediately.. She was on top of it enough to make our offer the first offer and advised us SPOT ON as to what to come in at price wise. She paid attention to all the details of the purchase and was very professional, kind and organized. Wouldn’t use anyone else. I highly recommend Sally Farrell!

"Sally helped us buy and sell our home. She was extremely kind, helpful, and going above and beyond to help us find the perfect home. She helped line up a contractor to meet us at a showing and even played with our toddler was we viewed another home. She found us the perfect home in the neighborhood we wanted. Sally has a wonderful crew and got our house ready for the market. She got our first bid on our house in three days. She helped us along each step of the way. I highly recommend her and would use her again in the future."

"Our experience working with Sally included selling two houses and the purchase of one over 13 months. The type of house we needed was very rare. We finally got the perfect place. Sally was patient, supportive and just a text or phone call away for questions, willing to show any houses and entertain the kids for us to explore in the houses. She is here to help and explained options in a hot market. Very happy and pleased in our new house."

"Sally was great to work with and I would recommend her to anyone. She knows the market and was a huge help navigating a very challenging closing and was very patient with us over the nine months it took us to find our dream home. She was very even keeled and helped level us during our periodic frustrations and in dealing with somewhat difficult sellers."

"I am so glad I chose Sally Farrell as the agent to sell my mother's mobile home. It was an emotional time for me as my mom had just passed away. Not only was Sally professional and competent, she was also kind, caring and empathetic towards what my family was going through. She treated the transaction with respect and dignity and was always mindful of how the various steps in the process might affect me personally. It took longer than expected for me to pack up the house but Sally was patient and continuously asked if I needed any help. We received a full price offer the first weekend the home was listed and the closing process went smoothly and without complication. Sally, along with her team was amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a real estate professional."

"We recently shopped for and closed on a house in Bellingham from 6000 miles away! Sally was not only our eyes, ears and nose, she was always one step ahead and guided us through the entire process with little to no stress. I loved how she wasn't afraid to tell us the negatives of a property before trying to sell us on it. Talk about integrity! She provided us with 360 videos of the properties we were interested in and even videoed the streets and neighborhoods. Sally's experience shows and we would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a trust worthy advocate and great negotiator."
