About Luma
A real estate company built by people who build.
Luma is a Seattle-based, locally owned and operated real estate company. We started it because we kept seeing the same thing: people buying homes without anyone at the table who truly understood how houses are built.
Our story
From building homes to helping people find them.
Our team has spent years in Seattle’s residential construction and development world — designing homes, working through permits with the City, managing crews and trades, and building new houses and backyard cottages from the ground up.
That work taught us how a house really goes together: what’s easy to change and what isn’t, which problems are cosmetic and which are expensive, and what it actually takes to turn an idea into a finished space.
Luma brings that knowledge to buyers and sellers. We help clients understand what a property is today and what it could become — and because we keep our design and construction services for the people we represent, we can stay with them long after closing.

What we value
How we work with clients.
Practical expertise
We’ve designed, permitted, and built homes. That experience shapes how we advise clients — in plain language, without guesswork.
Personal relationships
You’ll work directly with the people who own and run Luma, not a rotating cast of strangers.
Quality construction
We know what good work looks like, and we hold ourselves to it on every project we take on.
Transparency
Honest advice about condition, cost, and timing — including when the answer is “don’t.”
Long-term support
The relationship doesn’t end at closing. We want to be the first call for whatever the house needs next.
Local knowledge
We live and work in Seattle. We know the neighborhoods, the housing stock, and how the City works.
Our team
Brokers, designers, and builders — working as one.
Every Luma client works with a small team that talks to each other. Your broker can pull in a designer to look at a floor plan, or a builder to walk a foundation, before you ever make an offer.
Licensed brokers representing buyers and sellers across Seattle and surrounding communities — with clients’ long-term plans in mind, not just the transaction.
Residential designers and permit specialists who have taken more than a hundred Seattle homes and ADUs from idea to issued permit.
Builders and project managers who handle renovations, additions, and repairs for Luma clients — with the same care we’d want in our own homes.

Are you a broker who wants more to offer your clients?
We’re growing. Luma brokers can offer their clients design, permitting, and construction support that other brokerages can’t — backed by a team that knows Seattle houses inside and out.
Real estate, design, and building — under one roof, for the people we represent.
