Alan Dyckman is a Certified Short Sale Expert and experienced Washington real estate agent with Washington Realty Group in Sumner, WA, licensed for 18 years and serving clients across Pierce, King and Kitsap County. His real estate practice is centered on short sales and distressed property transactions, where a deep understanding of lending, valuation, and negotiation is critical.

Before entering real estate, Alan spent five years working at the FDIC as a loan workout specialist, where real estate was a core component of his role. In that position, he worked directly with distressed loans, asset management, and resolution strategies, gaining first hand insight into how lenders evaluate risk, approve losses, and make decisions on complex files. This background gave Alan a strong command of loan types, financial structures, and lender priorities, providing a significant advantage when negotiating short sales and advocating for his real estate clients.

Alan serves a wide range of Washington communities, including Puyallup, University Place, Tacoma, Auburn, Renton, Bonney Lake, Sumner, Edgewood, Milton, Dupont, Lacey, Burien, Des Moines, Federal Way, Seattle, Bellevue, Issaquah, and Kirkland. He is a multi‑year recipient of the Five Star Real Estate Agent Award, recognition earned through independent research focused on professionalism, integrity, responsiveness, and client satisfaction.
