Welcome!

From our Gig Harbor family home, to yours.

Hi! I’m Katie Hersey.

I believe in hands-on support through every step of the home selling process. I approach the sale of your home from both an emotional and highly-tactical standpoint. I understand the sentiment involved, while also respecting your financial investment. Afterall, you only get one chance to sell your home for the most money possible!

I enjoy meeting with clients well before the expected list date so I can take as much weight off of you as possible. I have a team of the most skilled contractors, designers, stagers, and photographers, and I oversee every task so you don't have to! At the end of the day my job goes well beyond just putting your home on the market. I love helping people, I love my city, and most importantly I truly love what I do.

  • On Peloton rides before the sun rises

  • A Hazy IPA with friends at my fave local dive bar

  • Trying new and ambitious recipes off Pinterest

  • Getting drenched on the sideline of my son’s soccer game

  • Throwing a marshmallow at Chad (don’t worry I only use the small ones..sometimes)

Little-known fact

When I was young I had a very tough time accepting that unicycling wasn’t a viable career path. After years of honing my skills, I had to hang up my unicycles (I had three) and shift my focus to something with a bit more potential. But I’m pretty sure I could still cruise around on one wheel if the opportunity ever arose!

Are we a good fit?

I believe I am the best agent you can hire if you value honesty and integrity, feel overwhelmed by the process of selling your home, and need someone with experience and expertise to ensure you get the highest price for your home.

Hey! I’m Chad Hersey.

Let's be honest, buying a home in Gig Harbor isn't exactly like trying to figure out a movie that the whole family will enjoy (though that can feel just as overwhelming!). It's a significant move, and that's where I come in – to be your steady hand and friendly guide through the entire process. I'm Chad, and my approach is simple: I take the time to truly understand what you and your family are looking for. From the must-have features like that perfect BBQ backyard and those satisfying soft-close drawers, to the workshop you've always wanted, my focus is on finding a place where you'll build a life, not just reside. I'll walk you through the paperwork, connect you with trusted lenders, and do everything I can to make this journey as seamless as possible. It's a real joy for me to work alongside my incredible wife every day, helping others achieve their homeownership dreams.

Outside of Real Estate You’ll Find Me-

  • Enjoying the beautiful Puget Sound with my family on our boat.

  • Exploring the local mountain biking trails

  • Making sure our dogs get plenty of love and belly rubs.

  • Relaxing with friends and a good beer at 7 Seas Brewery.

  • Usually tackling some project or another in the yard at our Artondale home (it's a never-ending but rewarding process!).

  • When the snow flies, we love hitting the slopes as a family, and our newest getaway in Packwood is the perfect spot for some off-season relaxation.

Little-known fact

I grew up horse back riding! My childhood horses name is Coco, and she lives at my parents property to this day.
