As a John L. Scott broker, my mission is transactional excellence and client satisfaction. That means I work tirelessly to make your home buying or selling process as efficient, stress-free and lucrative for you as possible.
Meet Brian
Brian Golik, who works out of John L. Scott’s Bellevue-Main office, began his real estate career in 1996. Before entering the real estate field, he worked in finance and retail, giving him a strong basis in customer service, including attention to detail and responsiveness. In 2001, Brian’s wife, Kim Golik, joined him to form The Golik Group and the duo has worked together for nearly two decades.
The Goliks bring nearly 40 years of combined experience to each transaction. The Goliks love what they do and their knowledge and experience ensures their buyers and sellers are able to reach their home buying and selling goals. For The Golik Group, developing and nurturing strong relationships is at the center of their approach, and much of their business comes from repeat clients and referrals. Brian and Kim pride themselves on being professional, honest, results-oriented and fun!
The Golik Group often help clients buy and sell on the Eastside, specializing in residential resale as well as luxury new construction in Bellevue and Kirkland – representing Murray Franklyn, Design Built Homes and American Classic Homes. They also are members of John L. Scott’s relocation team, helping domestic and international clients make a move to or from the Seattle area.
When working with sellers, the Goliks’ favorite marketing strategies include face-to-face meetings and new listing kick-off weekend activities. They also aim to create and tell “the story” for each listing, which is done with a tailored combination of professional staging, excellent photography, top-notch videography and Matterport 3D photography.
Giving back is important to The Golik Group. With each transaction, the Goliks donate a portion of each sales transactions to support Seattle Children’s Hospital, through the John L. Scott Foundation. They host an annual holiday fundraiser at their office, and also support local food banks. Additionally, Kim is a member of the Assistance League of the Eastside, a nonprofit group that donates apparel, home goods, food and more to benefit local charities.
The Golik Group have been recognized as John L. Scott’s Top 1% producers multiple years, as well as earning Chairman’s Circle and President’s Elite awards. They met in Spokane in 1978 and are graduates of Eastern Washington University. They currently reside in Sammamish, with their standard poodle Lucky, who keeps them laughing at her daily antics. They enjoy spending time with family and friends, entertaining, traveling, cooking, golf, sailing, riding horses and skiing.
Bellevue
Bellevue is the third largest city in the Seattle metro area, and it’s the hub of the Eastside, but it’s close to the Cascade mountains for hiking, mountain biking, and, in the winter, skiing and snowboarding. Locals also take advantage of Lake Washington for boating, kayaking or watching the sun set over Seattle and the Olympics to the west. Bellevue’s thriving downtown offers five-star dining, a world-class art museum, and some of the best shopping in the Northwest. The entrepreneurial spirit of the city and its highly educated work force make it a natural home for tech start-ups as well as global corporations. Our schools are rated among the best in the nation. This means even residents without children enjoy healthy property values. And there is a home here for everyone. Townhouses and condos downtown, luxury waterfront properties on the Lake, and areas with a more neighborhood feel are all available in our robust real estate market.

Reviews
“We first met Kim and Brian 13 years ago during our relocation for a corporate move. They were extremely professional, efficient, and very kind during a stressful time. We found a beautiful home we lived in for 11 years. They successfully sold that home for us and helped us purchase our dream downtown Seattle condo! Needless to say, they've been our support and guide for every Seattle area real estate activity we have had! We highly recommend Kim and Brian Golik as real estate professionals!”
– John and Nancy, Downtown Seattle
“I could not recommend Brian and Kim more highly. They are the perfect mix of informed and encouraging the deal that is right for you. I have bought two homes with them so far and sold one. You couldn't find a team more worthy of your trust.”
– Thom and Catherine, Yarrow Point
“I can't say enough amazing things about Kim and Brian. They had our best interest from the beginning. They listened to our wants list and provided great options. They helped us pick the house of our dreams. I would recommend them to anyone in the market. Their communication, attention to detail and negotiation power are second to none.”
– Tony & Mercie, West Seattle
