Client Testimonials

The start of this project coincided with an extremely tight labor market in Seattle and Rafn was faced with the difficult task of getting and keeping a skilled labor force working on the project. Not only did the Rafn team work tirelessly to alleviate the labor shortage, they employed extraordinary and creative measures to deliver our building in the shortest possible timeframe.

The Rafn Team on the Cambridge Apartments Renovation project is truly one of the best project teams I have had the pleasure of working with in my entire career. I most appreciate their clear and timely communication, collaborative and proactive approach to problem solving, and the fact that they always have the client’s best interested in mind. I couldn’t have hand picked a better team for such a challenging and complex renovation project!
