RENTING AND LEASING
If you’re looking for a place to rent, I’ll help you find the perfect home, negotiate the best deal, manage the application process, and ensure the property is ready to move in and enjoy.
If you’re a property owner, I can manage the preparation of your home to get the most rent and the best tenants.
Why Find Your Next Rental with Me?
Choosing a home to rent is just as big a deal as buying one! It’s important to find a place that meets your needs. This includes everything from finding affordable or pet-friendly options to finding a manageable commute…and parking!

Whether you need relocation services, Seattle resources, or anything else to make your transition go smoothly, you’ve got it.
My client relationships are long-term and reflect a meaningful partnership. We keep in touch and work together when you’re ready to buy a home. Talk to me about getting my leasing services free with Seattle Realty Boutique’s “Lease to Sell” program!
We met Gwyneth when thinking about moving to the Seattle area. She showed us houses in the area even though we were not yet sure we would move.
Once we decided to move, she helped us find the perfect rental for a short time rather than rush to buy a home. The rental that we preferred had some restrictions that Gwyneth successfully resolved.
As we established ourselves in the rental, she started showing us houses. We saw many homes in this competitive market until we found the one we wanted.
Gwyneth's negotiation skills and persistence made us the winning bid for the house.

Gwyneth was wonderful to work with! We enlisted her help to rent out our townhome in Seattle. She walked us through what the process would be like and what we should expect.
She managed the entire listing and screening process, pulling us in only when our tenants were ready to sign, making it really easy for us. Gwyneth also told us what to expect in the first few months of renting, and her predictions were right on!
She also gave us some really sound advice on how to manage the rental which has helped us save money. She let us know that we could reach out to her anytime with questions before, during or after the lease signing.
We have contacted her for help and advice a few times over the past year; she is always quick to reply and happy to help. Highly recommend!

My husband and I recently relocated from St. Louis, MO to Seattle. We asked Gwyneth to assist us in finding a new home to rent.
The Seattle housing market is extremely difficult to navigate. I truthfully do not think we would have found an amazing place if it was not for Gwyneth. She video-chatted with us to show us each property we were interested in, drove past available places to check out the street the home was located on, and communicated to the management company to help facilitate the application process. We would have been lost without her!
The best part is she found us an absolutely amazing townhome with beautiful views of Puget Sound and Mt. Ranier! We could not be happier! Gwyneth is extremely patient, understanding and catered to all of our needs. I highly recommend working with her!

I needed an apartment in the Seattle area with a short turnaround time, Gwyneth was awesome in helping me find a place I was happy with!
She was able to help me find something in less than 3 weeks (in a competitive market) as well as negotiate some of the terms of the lease agreement. She was always available for a quick chat and went with me to view the properties (providing tips in my best interest along the way).
She earned my trust and I felt confident working with her. Thank you, Gwyneth!
