Margot Wallen is a force to be reckoned with in the Greater Seattle and Eastside markets. Her strength lies in residential properties, from single-family homes to new constructions, condos to co-ops and even floating homes.

A true-blue Seattleite, Wallen’s love for the city is palpable. “I’ve lived in Seattle my entire life and truly love it here,” she says. Wallen’s path to real estate was rooted in her entrepreneurial spirit.
