Sam Drott

Licensed Assistant

Get to Know Me

Sam joined the Portico team as a Licensed Assistant in 2024.  When David met Sam, he immediately recognized his work ethic as well as his abilities in time management, leadership, and interpersonal skills and offered him a part time position while he finishes his studies. 

Sam is studying Architecture at the University of Washington. He also works full time in hospitality, and part time with us, all while managing to study for and pass his real estate exams. After graduation with his degree in Architecture, Sam plans to transition to a full-time agent with Portico Real Estate where his background and hard work will surely make for a great Real Estate Broker. 

A Pacific Northwest Native, Sam grew up in Port Hadlock, WA.  He enjoys the outdoors, fashion, breweries, and being at the beach. He currently lives in Ballard and has previously lived in Auburn, Sultan, Kirkland, Port
Hadlock, and Marrowstone Island giving him a well-rounded awareness of Seattle and surrounding neighborhoods.

Dan did a really great job in helping me find my house and made the process of buying the home very easy for me. He helped inform me of the different neighborhoods and things to look for so I could find my home in the place I want with the right characteristics.

Sarah did an amazing job. She helped out on every step from viewing properties to helping me connect to helpful people. She also personally encouraged me to put in an offer aware of how much I wanted a property and I got it. Such a lovely helpful person. You want her in your corner.

Chris was an invaluable asset in buying our first house. He was always responsive, set up tons of showings at all hours, pointed out all kinds of things we should be considering, and really guided us through the process of making an offer. We love our new house and we so appreciate Chris' help getting us here.

As he has done in our previous transactions together, David did a terrific job in knowing the neighborhood or market, pricing the property correctly, and taking on all the little tasks that the seller was unable to perform. In this instance, David worked hard to keep the potential buyer engaged as there were several delays in bringing the property to the market and closure.

Dan helped us buy our first home in the Greenwood or Phinney Ridge area in Spring 2021. This was our first experience with the home buying process and Dan did an awesome job of walking us through it from beginning to end! He had a ton of local knowledge about the neighborhoods we were considering which was invaluable. I would enthusiastically recommend Dan to anyone looking for a Realtor® in the Seattle ...

David was super helpful in all aspects of this home sale. His team actually helped me purchase the property originally and were super flexible and responsive when we decided we would be selling it. It was a quick turnaround, from buying to selling, but they were able to help us find a good price that allowed us to make something on the property and not take a loss. For how hard buying and selling a home ...

Met David through our cousins who never stopped gushing about how helpful he was in helping them find the perfect fixer upper for them. He was very helpful in shortlisting the properties that worked best for our needs. He was also really helpful in figuring out the best bids in a competitive market. " The house buying process is really stressful. My wife had a meltdown in the middle of the entire process...

Sarah helped us start looking the first time just around the beginning of the pandemic, and though we weren't able to buy then we came to her as soon as we were ready. Sarah is an excellent real estate agent, and perhaps as importantly she's a good person. She made sure that we had the information we needed, listened to our needs and advised us based on what we were after, and was always direct and hones...

Sarah is an exceptional Realtor® who helped us find our dream home. Her local knowledge and expertise in the process were truly invaluable.

Sarah was the absolute best to work with. I am a first-time home buyer, and Sarah so patiently and thoroughly took me through the whole process - answered all of my questions, educated me on the whole process, connected me with great professionals for every need I had, and so much more. She helped me find the perfect place when I wasn't totally sure what I even wanted! To anyone buying or selling, I can'...

We found Dan pre-pandemic when we weren’t seriously looking to buy, but he was super helpful despite our home-buying hesitancy. He likely showed us over 40 houses over the course of a few months, during which the rules around showings completely changed, but Dan helped us navigate the new real estate market without any problems. We eventually found a few houses that we were interested in, so Dan and his ...

Ben is the best. We spent just over two months house hunting, saw many, many houses with him, planned multiple potential remodels, and put in multiple offers. Ben was present, patient and engaged every step of the way, always available for questions. His advice on what a home would sell for and what is was worth was invaluable, and saved us from overpaying and getting the wrong house more than once. His ...

Chris was thoughtful, professional, caring, and dedicated. We were moving cross country and needed a Realtor® who was comfortable taking on our house (and all that the sale and marketing involved when we were thousands of miles away). Chris went above and beyond, taking the time to ensure that all questions were answered and that we felt comfortable with the entire process - he did this early on and kept...

David Marks is simply amazing! My husband began working for his company a few months before the children and I moved to Seattle. We began working with David by phone and texting in October to get a feel of the housing market, where we wanted to live, and what we could realistically afford. We were impressed with the fact that David knew we were not planning on buying a house until April or May-but he was...

David Marks is a consummate real estate professional! He is truly so much more than a Realtor®. A property transaction typically is a stressful life situation with many more moving parts than one would ever imagine. David took on the role to proactively manage everything with a high level of skill and attention to detail. My husband and I are very experienced and very demanding clients, with a lot of exp...

I recommend Ben to everyone I know and will never use anyone else to buy or sell a house. He is amazing at his job. He knows the ins and out of the Seattle market, has extensive professional networks to get things done and has builder knowledge. Ben can decode the seller's inspection reports, point out things that the inspector missed, and calm worries about everything related to the homebuying or improv...
