About The Shutes Team

The Shutes Team is a trusted name in Seattle real estate, blending over three decades of experience with a deep-rooted commitment to community and client care. Led by Scott and Molly Shutes—longtime Magnolia residents—and their daughter Sarah, the team has been affiliated with Windermere Real Estate since 1989, offering a full-service, family-driven approach to buying and selling homes in the greater Seattle area.​

Who We Are

Together, they lead a team, all dedicated to providing personalized, high-touch service.
