About John Blacksmith

As a real estate professional, I’ve been a full-time, high-performing broker with Lake & Company Real Estate in Seattle since 1998 and have placed among the Top 5 agents at my 100-person office for more than a decade. In 2021, I ranked in the top 1.5% of all (34,000) real estate agents in the Northwest MLS in terms of production and volume.

I believe in kindness and humility — in life and in business. I work with Puget Sound-Area buyers and sellers across a spectrum of price points. If you are looking to purchase or sell a home outside the Puget Sound area and would like assistance, I know a vast network of professional contacts around the country and will be happy to refer you to an excellent real estate professional.

I’ve been a resident of Washington State my entire life, and though I’ve traveled the world, there is nowhere I would rather call home than Seattle. An avid outdoorsman, I’ve hiked or rock-climbed every mountain peak you can see from the city and have been running Green Lake almost daily since 1983. These days, you’ll likely find me at the lake with my Mini Australian Shepherd, Blue. Other favorite running paths include Discovery Park, Interlaken Park, the UW campus, and Lincoln Park — depending on my running partners and client meetings for the day.
