Robyn Kimura Hsu, Principal Broker

Rachel Schindler, Managing Broker

When a client pulled Robyn Kimura Hsu and Rachel Schindler into their Mercer Island home mid-remodel and eager to sell, the team was up to the challenge.

They put their pre-listing brainstorming/checklist to work, found vendors to address issues the client couldn’t find anyone to solve and brought in their vetted list of contractors. In rapid time, they finished the unfinished and even puzzle-pieced together a kitchen that had been transplanted from their previous home. “After all the projects were finished, the home was absolutely stunning,” says Kimura Hsu, principal broker and Schindler, managing broker of Robyn + Rachel Group, Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty. “It was a shifting time in the market, and we still got multiple offers and went under contract quickly.”

Combined, Kimura Hsu and Schindler have more than 40 years of experience in real estate, lifetime sales volume of over $1.3 billion and consistently rank among Real Trends’ Top Small Teams. They specialize in assisting buyers, sellers and investors, from first-time to luxury, empty-nesters and relocation clients in the Puget Sound, Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish areas. They know their territory well. Hsu lives on Mercer Island and Schindler lives in Bellevue.

“Working on a team means that both Robyn and I have to communicate constantly with each other and our team,” Schindler says. “This also means that our communication to our clients is detailed and thought-through. We typically meet with buyers before touring, to walk them through all of our real estate jargon. Once they have some familiarity with the buying process, they can relax and enjoy the experience.”

Hsu and Schindler, along with Jill Smith, client services manager, offer the most customer-focused experience possible. “We love when our knowledge and creativity create amazing wins for our clients,” they say.
