Who Should Apply

Closed deals.
Real experience.

Rachel isn't building a bench of brand-new licensees hoping something sticks. She is specifically looking for agents who have been in the chair on both sides of a transaction and know what the job actually feels like when things get complicated.

It doesn't matter if you came from a national franchise or a two-person shop. What matters is that you understand Washington state contracts, you've guided clients through a full transaction from start to close, and you can run your own pipeline without someone managing your calendar for you.

If you have that foundation and you're ready for a brokerage that generates real seller volume through a model clients actually trust, this is worth a conversation.

Hard Requirements Non-Negotiable
Active Washington State real estate license in good standing
At least one year of active, hands-on real estate experience
Verifiable closed transactions on the buy side, sell side, or both
Working knowledge of WA purchase agreements, MLS systems, and timelines
Ability to manage your own pipeline without daily supervision
Good to Bring Along
Familiarity with Pierce County, the South Sound, or surrounding Puget Sound markets
An existing referral network or client base you are ready to grow
Experience running listing appointments or advising sellers on pricing
Comfort with digital tools for client communication and follow-up
How It Works

No portal. No
waiting room.

Rachel built her career by cutting through the noise for clients. She runs the hiring conversation the same way. If you have the experience and want to talk, five minutes gets it started. She responds personally and takes it from there.

1
Send a Direct Message
Email Rachel or call her directly. No template needed. Tell her who you are, how long you have been licensed in Washington, what type of transactions you focus on, and what you are looking for in a brokerage. Honest and to the point is exactly right.
2
A Real Conversation, Not a Script
Rachel responds personally. You will talk about your background, your goals, what is working at your current setup and what is not, and whether this brokerage is actually a fit for where you want to go. She has been on every side of this business and the conversation reflects that. Ask what you need to ask.
3
Clear Decision, Fast
If it works for both sides, Rachel moves quickly. Splits, logistics, onboarding details get handled directly with no middleman and no approval chain. If it is not the right fit, she will tell you that too. The goal is a clear answer either way, not a slow follow-up that never comes.
About the Brokerage

1 Percent Lists Tacoma

1 Percent Lists Tacoma is a full-service real estate brokerage co-owned by Rachel Veary. Rachel started in this industry as an entry-level assistant and worked her way through every part of the business before becoming a co-owner. She has been involved in more than a thousand transactions and has seen what works and what does not from every angle.

The brokerage runs on the national 1 Percent Lists franchise model, built on a simple idea that actually holds up: sellers deserve full-service representation without handing over a significant cut of their equity at closing. That pricing structure drives real inbound volume, builds client trust faster, and gives agents on this team more opportunities to close than most traditional offices generate.

This is not a large brokerage where agents get lost in the shuffle. Rachel knows her agents, stays accessible, and brings genuine transaction experience to every question that comes up in a deal. When you need your broker, you get your broker.

I started at the bottom of this industry and earned every step up. I know what a serious agent looks like because I have been that agent. That is exactly who I am looking for.

What You Get Here

A setup built for
agents who produce

The 1% listing model is not a gimmick. It generates real inbound interest from sellers who have done their research and want a brokerage that treats their equity with respect. That is the foundation everything else is built on.

01
Work from Wherever You Work Best
Client calls, contract review, follow-up, negotiations, lead management. Most of this job runs from a desk you set up yourself. When showings and closings pull you out, that is part of the job. But nobody is requiring you to drive somewhere to sit in a chair. Your time is yours to protect.
02
A Listing Price That Opens Conversations
When sellers hear one percent, the conversation shifts. They stop shopping and start listening. The 1 Percent Lists franchise has national recognition in this market, which means clients often come in already understanding the value before you say a word. Less time convincing. More time closing. Buyer interest follows naturally from seller volume.
03
Honest Compensation Worth Talking About
Rachel walks through compensation directly, no buried footnotes and no surprises later. The model works because seller trust translates into transaction volume and agents who plug into that see the results. The specifics are worth a real conversation, not a fill-in-the-blank FAQ page.
04
A Broker Who Picks Up the Phone
Rachel has worked this industry from every angle. She has been an assistant, a buyer's agent, a listing agent, and now a brokerage co-owner. When something comes up mid-deal and you need a real answer fast, you call Rachel and she picks up. Not a coordinator. Not a voicemail. The person who actually knows the answer.
05
A Brand Clients in This Market Already Recognize
1 Percent Lists is a nationally franchised brand with real recognition in the Tacoma and Pierce County market. Buyers and sellers in this region have often heard the name before your first contact. You walk into those conversations with credibility that you did not have to build from scratch.
06
Space to Build Something, Not Just Close Something
This brokerage is growing across Pierce County and into neighboring markets. Agents who join now are establishing their presence alongside a team that is still expanding its footprint, not joining a shop that peaked and is coasting. If you are thinking about where you want to be in five years, that timing matters.
Where We Work

Tacoma and the greater Puget Sound

Agents here work across Pierce County and surrounding communities. Tacoma is one of the most consistently active markets in the Pacific Northwest. The combination of proximity to Seattle, strong neighborhood diversity, military presence at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and a steady first-time buyer pool keeps transaction volume real and consistent.

The 1% model lands especially well in this market. Buyers and sellers here tend to be informed and equity-conscious. Agents who know these neighborhoods, these price points, and these buyers have a genuine edge that does not come from marketing spend alone.
