Hello,
I'm a real estate agent, skier, hiker, chef, biker, skydiver, boater, sailor and adventurer. I am Joy Stewart!
Experience counts! I have been a full-time Realtor® for 20+ years, selling and listing homes in the greater Seattle and Eastside areas. My goal is to guide you successfully and easily through the real estate process. I am committed to providing you with superior service and expertise. Having lived in the Seattle and Eastside area for over 25 years, I can be a valuable community resource for you. I listen to your wants and desires and will make sure you will be satisfied. Let me put my experience and enthusiasm to work for you.
Learned from the Best
My mother was a very successful real estate agent for over 35 years. Growing up in the real estate business, I have learned that excellent customer service is the #1 priority that will keep clients coming back and offering referrals.
Before Real Estate
I am a graduate of the University of Utah, was a chef/owner of a catering business, which included food styling for TV and print. I was featured in the August 2002 issue of Bon Appetit magazine in an NW Floatplane picnic story. And was a former USA Para-Ski Team member and World Champion, and have parachute jumped over 2,000 times and downhill ski raced all over the U.S. and Europe.
Joy may be remembered by most Northwesterners for the stunt she pulled in honor of her hometown Seattle’s favorite waterlogged extravaganza, Seafair. Skydiving from a helicopter over Lake Washington, she landed with pinpoint accuracy to dot the “i” on the Budweiser raft floating in front of the VIP barge. For Joy, that leap was only one of many. She also parachuted onto the bow of a 65-foot yacht on Lake Union and performed a legal BASE jump off the top of El Capitan, the 3,600-foot granite cliff in Yosemite National Park. ”I’ve never been so scared in my life, either before or since,” Joy admits of her “El Cap” escapade.
When I'm not house hunting, I'm...
Out enjoying life to the fullest! On the side, I run my very part-time, small NW Floatplane Picnic Company. Here my love of flying and cooking meet. I enjoy entertaining guests as we soar in a floatplane over remote NW areas, ending in a picnic on a beach enjoying a feast of my delicious homemade cooking.

Testimonials
Joy was a pleasure to work with on the sale of our Medina home. She went above and beyond to ensure things went smoothly, especially after we had moved to Texas and left the home fully furnished with many personal belongings. Communication with Joy was always timely and accurate. Joy understands the market and uses her experience to generate the best outcomes for her clients.
Meeting Joy truly changed my life. We met, by chance, at an open house and I knew instantly I was in the hands of an expert. She sold my home in Bellevue within weeks. Joy has the expertise and knowledge that made my sale seamless and effortless. Her responsiveness and skills guided me every step of the way and I look forward to working with her again in the future.
Joy did an excellent job listing our home. She has tremendous experience and expertise regarding the neighborhood (Medina/Clyde Hill). She is very hands-on, even helping us with the staging. With her help, we were lucky enough to use our own items for staging so we did not have to move out. The house sold rapidly, for a great price and she was also able to negotiate a rent-back so we could stay the 6 months until our son graduated from high school. A great experience overall.
Joy has represented us in purchasing and selling the same property and selling another. She is always professional and knowledgeable on the properties and areas where we are selling/buying. We feel that she has always given us her honest opinion when asked. It has always been a pleasure working with her and we would certainly recommend her!
Joy Stewart listed my condo in Seattle. We were under a tight timeline to fix it up and get it on the market. It was overwhelming because it needed so much work but Joy said no problem. She had a list of people and vendors to recommend for cleaning, hauling, handyman, painting, new flooring, staging, etc. With her expertise, we were able to get everything done in 30 days and then we listed it with her and it closed 30 days later. This was not an easy property to sell but she knew all the procedures to make it happen. I will use her again and this time to find my next new home! Thanks, JOY!
Joy is very professional, personable and made selling our house (off-market) an easy and straightforward process. We had a very difficult, somewhat unethical foreign buyer's agent and this is where Joy's experience paid off and helped us persevere and win the day.
I recommend her highly!
Joy sold our house and found us a condo in an area we wanted to live in. She is enthusiastic and always got right back to me if I ha questions. Being local she really knows the area. I called her the energizer bunny for all the work she did for us. She is fun to work with and I highly recommend her.
I had the pleasure of working with Joy on the purchase of a rental property in Kirkland last December and would, without reservation, recommend Joy and Windermere Real Estate. Joy kept me immediately aware of properties that were coming on the market that met my criteria and was always readily available to meet me and show the homes that I was interested in. When I found the right property, Joy's skills as a negotiator landed the property with other offers in play and was a great resource in recommending qualified resources for the inspection, appraisal, and mortgage. In my opinion, this is how a real estate transaction should happen.
Joy Stewart represented our family in the sale of our home in 2014. It was clear from the beginning that we were in great hands! We needed a quick sale due to a job transfer. Joy helped us competitively price and strategically stage our home. In a challenging market and location, we received a full-price offer two days after listing. It was an incredible experience working with Joy and we highly recommend her!
Joy listed my mother's condo in downtown Bellevue. She was amazingly helpful. She helped me move my mother's furniture to a reseller and helped me get the condo staged at a reasonable price. The condo was in a secure building (no open houses allowed), so she invited other brokers in to see the condo. The condo sold almost immediately! I would highly recommend Joy. She is everything that you would want in a real estate broker.
I’ve known Joy for several years, and I’ve had the pleasure of working with her a couple of times. She made sure my purchase was not only a great fit for what I wanted but was genuinely a good purchase and a wise investment. She showed extraordinary dedication to my interests by tirelessly working to ensure I found a place that I was truly satisfied with.
Joy did a tremendous job helping to stage and then sell my parent's condominium. Her thorough research and market analysis priced the condo just right. We received offers quickly and closed the deal in just over a month. We were very pleased with Joy's communication and attention to detail during the whole process.
Joy is the best. She helped our family determine a fair market price, guided us and participated in the preparation and staging process, and was always available to answer our questions. She is persistent, responsive, intelligent and a very positive person. She helped keep us focused and was ready with advice when we needed it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
We had a great experience with Joy Stewart! She helped us navigate the process with her local expertise, staging, and other aspects of selling a home in Medina. Joy has high energy and is very positive. I recommend her without reservation!
I wanted to express our sincere gratitude to Joy Stewart for the great job she did in selling both of our homes. Joy was extremely professional in all of our communications. She was efficient and timely at every meeting we had with her, and she was very strategic in her advice regarding price and selling techniques. Both of our homes sold quickly in a difficult real estate market due to her hard work. We have recommended Joy to many of our friends, and if we ever moved back to Seattle, we would use her again immediately.
Joy Stewart is great to work with. She understands the neighborhoods and home values on the east side. Either when trying to determine the best sales price for your home or driving around looking at homes to buy, you can count on Joy for solid advice. I highly recommend Joy for your agent. Thank you again for your help and support.
Joy was fun to work with. Her staging ideas made a big difference and our house was sold before we knew it. We were impressed with her tenacity, but also her ability to negotiate diplomatically. Thanks Joy!!!
