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. In record time, they found vendors, vetted contractors and helped piece together a kitchen that had been transplanted from the client’s previous home. “After all the projects were finished, the home was absolutely stunning,” say Robyn Kimura Hsu, principal broker, and Rachel Schindler, managing broker, of The Robyn & Rachel Group. “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, a lifetime sales volume of more than $1.375 billion and a consistent place among RealTrends’ Top Small Teams. They specialize in assisting a wide array of buyers, sellers, investors and relocation clients in the Puget Sound, Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish areas. With an average listing duration of 17 days, they know their territory well.

Together, they lead a team of five women, each playing an integral role in the group’s success. The team includes brokers, a client services manager and a marketing manager who contribute through effective schedule management, empathetic communication and creative marketing strategies. “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.”

Thanks to the top-notch stewardship of Kimura Hsu and Schindler, along with the support of their dedicated team, they achieved $55 million in sales volume last year. “We love when our knowledge and creativity create amazing wins for our clients,” they say.
