The team behind your home.
We started with something simple: a belief that real estate should feel personal. We're a mother, daughter, and niece who built a business on trust, hard work, and a whole lot of heart. Between us, we bring decades of experience, fresh perspective, and an unwavering commitment to doing right by every single client.
Who We Are
Margie Zech
Margie Zech isn’t just experienced — she’s the kind of agent who can drive through almost any Seattle neighborhood and point to a house she’s sold, listed, or negotiated. With over 25 years in the business and more transactions than she can count, Margie has seen every market cycle, every curveball, and every kind of client — and she handles all of it with the steadiness that only comes from decades of doing the work. A Capitol Hill native with deep roots in this city, she didn’t just grow up in Seattle; she grew up in the community, surrounded by the kind of big, close-knit family that taught her the value of showing up for people. That’s exactly how she treats her clients — like people who matter, not just another closing. When she’s not working, you’ll find her in the stands cheering on the Huskies, Mariners, Kraken, or Seahawks, because for Margie, loyalty — whether to her teams or her clients — isn’t something she takes lightly.
Alexandria Montarbo
Alex Montarbo is a Seattle native in the truest sense — she grew up on Capitol Hill, went to Garfield High, and has spent her whole life in the neighborhoods she now sells. Real estate was never something she stumbled into; her mom, Margie Zech, has been in the business for years, which means Alex grew up at the dinner table talking about deals, clients, and what it actually takes to show up for people. She came to real estate from a background in finance and accounting, which means the details that other people miss are exactly the things she catches. Every showing is scheduled, every deadline is tracked, and every step of the process is managed with the kind of precision that keeps transactions from going sideways. Clients tend to say the same two things about working with Alex: she made it feel seamless, and she made it feel fun.
Ava Zech
Born and raised in Seattle, Ava brings a lifelong connection to the Pacific Northwest and a deep understanding of its ever-evolving real estate landscape. With a background in marketing, she knows how to position properties to stand out, tell compelling stories, and connect the right buyers with the right homes. Growing up with an entrepreneurial spirit, Ava has always been driven by the thrill of building something meaningful — and real estate is the perfect arena for that passion. She combines creative strategy with market savvy to deliver results that go beyond the transaction. Whether you're buying your first home or making your next investment, Ava is the partner who will show up, hustle hard, and get it done.
