Mahek Vora | Lakhani Team Real Estate

Hi, I’m Mahek, and my passion for people and nature has led me to a fulfilling career in real estate. I live in the vibrant city of Seattle, where I bring a unique blend of skills and experiences to the market. With a master’s degree in marketing and a background as a marketing manager at Amazon, I understand the importance of truly listening to people and delivering top-notch service.

I’ve always been a people person, and real estate feels like the perfect fit for me. I’m excited to help individuals and families find their dream homes in and around Seattle while building lasting relationships along the way. My goal is to get to know each of my clients personally and guide them through one of the most important decisions of their lives.

When I’m not working, I love to travel—I've visited four continents so far—and I'm always exploring new outdoor activities like snorkeling, surfing, and scuba diving. I’ve gained a deep appreciation for nature through my travels, which is why Seattle, with its perfect blend of mountains, water, and tech, feels like home to me. With my experience, enthusiasm, and people-first approach, I’m ready to help you find your ideal spot in this beautiful city.

Anand Chetanwala | Lakhani Team Real Estate

Born and raised in London, England, I relocated with my wife to Sammamish, Washington in 2004 and have proudly called this community home ever since. Our two children both attended local schools before continuing their studies at King’s College London and the University of Washington.

With over 30 years as an IT professional, I built a career rooted in problem‑solving, attention to detail, and client service. I’m now excited to bring that same dedication to real estate, blending professional expertise with a passion for helping people find the place they’ll love to call home.

Having also personally navigated the relocation process from the UK to the US, I understand the challenges and opportunities that come with such a transition. That experience gives me a unique perspective and a deep appreciation for guiding clients through every step of their own journey – whether they’re moving across town or across the globe.

Most importantly, I want to help you find the right home – one that fits your lifestyle, your goals, and your dreams. My commitment is to provide trusted advice, clear communication, and unwavering support, ensuring that each client feels confident and cared for throughout the buying or selling process.

Helping You Find the House That Truly Feels Like Home

To me, the American Dream starts with having a cozy place to call home, a space where memories are made, milestones are celebrated, and your future takes shape. That’s why there’s nothing more fulfilling than helping someone find their perfect home. I like to keep my approach simple: I treat your dream as if it were my own.

After finding my own dream home here in Kent, I know what it feels like to fall in love with not just a house, but an entire neighborhood. Buying or selling a home is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make, and I believe you deserve more than someone who’s just trying to close a deal, you deserve a partner who stands by your side and negotiates the best possible future for you and your family.

Before real estate, I spent 15 years working in the IT industry, which gave me a strong attention to detail and a data‑driven mindset. Today, I bring that same “tech‑powered” precision into every home search, using market insights and analytics to help ensure you’re making a smart investment and never overpaying.

At the same time, I understand that a home is more than numbers. It’s about how a space fits your lifestyle, your routines, and your long‑term goals. I work hard to help you see how a house can truly become your home, sometimes before you even step through the front door.

When I’m not helping clients navigate the King County market, you’ll probably find me tackling a DIY project around the house or exploring local parks with my French Bulldog, Poki.

If you're looking for someone who is genuinely invested in your vision, and brings both heart and strategy to the process. I’d love to help you find your way home. View more on my website.

Shriya Rodi

Manesh Lakhani and Tania helped us throughout our home search journey. The overall process was seamless. Manesh is knowledgeable and shared a lot of useful information, and he was always available to meet when needed. He was very responsive and always answered our calls on time. He also attended our home inspection, which we appreciated. In addition, Manesh helped us connect with a realtor to sell our home in Virginia. Overall, it was a great experience working with them!

Jidesh Veeramachaneni

We had a great experience working with Manesh and Tania. They were proactive about following up with buyer agents and consistently shared feedback so we always understood how the market was responding to our home. They advised us honestly on market conditions and prepared us for a longer process, setting realistic expectations from the start. Manesh and Tania emphasized integrity and clarity throughout, encouraging full disclosure and transparency, which gave us confidence in every decision. Since we were selling from across the country, it meant a lot that they regularly checked on the house and helped manage the stress of a long-distance listing. Their professionalism, communication, and steady guidance made all the difference, and we highly recommend them.

Melissa Feeney

They patiently answered every question we had (and we had a lot!), explaining each step of the process so we always felt informed and confident. What truly set Tania and Manesh apart was their dedication and expertise. They helped us secure our dream home before it even hit the market! Their knowledge of the area and strong relationships in the community made all the difference. We’re beyond grateful for their professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care throughout the entire journey. If you’re looking for a realtor who truly goes above and beyond, The Lakhani Team is the one to call. — Mia and Antonio

Working with Tania and Manesh Lakhani was an absolute game-changer. From the moment I handed over the keys, they took complete ownership of the process and ran with it. Selling a property on 5+ acres is no small task, especially in a competitive market—but mine sold quickly, and I have no doubt it was due to the focused marketing strategy, meticulous preparation, and tireless work they put into getting it ready. They handled every single logistic detail with professionalism and calm expertise. Even when I felt overwhelmed or out of steam (most days!), they remained steady, responsive, and reassuring throughout. Their ability to stay composed and in control made all the difference. Tania and Manesh are EXPERT negotiators. They secured a cash offer with no contingencies and a fast closing—truly the best possible outcome. I've heard countless stories from friends and coworkers about agents needing constant direction and follow-up just to get the basics done. That was never the case with Tania and Manesh. They are full-service, all-hands-on-deck professionals who deliver results without needing to be managed. They stay ahead of market trends, have a deep understanding of the Eastside’s unique dynamics and cultural nuances, and bring a level of knowledge and care that’s unmatched. It's clear why so many of their clients return to them time and time again—I certainly will. I wouldn't consider using anyone else.

Selling our Sammamish home from 200 miles away could have been a nightmare—but Manesh and Tania Lakhani of REAL Broker LLC made it absolutely effortless. They managed everything for us, from arranging trusted contractors and overseeing work to beautifully staging our home, all without us having to step in once. What truly amazed us was their unmatched communication and dedication. Even while they were on vacation in Europe, they stayed in constant touch, guided us through every decision, and ensured nothing slipped through the cracks. Their responsiveness—sometimes even during their late-night hours overseas—gave us complete peace of mind. Manesh and Tania are true seller’s agents: proactive, professional, and genuinely invested in delivering the best outcome for their clients. Thanks to them, what could have been a stressful long-distance sale became a smooth, worry-free experience. We can’t recommend Manesh and Tania Lakhani highly enough—they are the kind of realtors who make you feel like their top priority no matter where in the world they are! Srinath & Uma.

Neha Dubey

We were first-time homebuyers and had so many questions when we started the process but Manesh was incredibly patient with us from day one. He’s super knowledgeable, explained everything in a way that made sense, and has a real eye for details we would’ve easily missed. He made us feel confident every step of the way. Even after we closed, he’s still helping us figure things out as new homeowners. I would also like to mention Tania here who is equally knowledgeable and helped us in the whole process. Couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us.

Vamsi Kalapala

We had the pleasure of working with Manesh Lakhani and Tania during our home-buying journey in Kirkland, and I can confidently say they were instrumental in helping us find a home that was the perfect fit for our family. Our priorities were clear — we were looking for a home with the right layout, located in a strong school district, and within a reasonable commute to work. Manesh not only understood these requirements but took the time to sit down with both me and my wife multiple times to thoughtfully coach us through the process. He helped us refine our priorities and guided us to homes that truly aligned with our needs, not just what was available on the market. There were moments when we felt discouraged, unsure if we would ever find a home we loved — but Manesh remained incredibly positive and encouraging, like a trusted friend. His attitude made a world of difference. Both he and Tania were thoughtful, proactive, and with us every step of the way — from scheduling showings to helping us evaluate pros and cons with clarity and honesty. What stood out the most was Manesh’s deep knowledge and integrity. He gave us valuable feedback, even when it was tough to hear — and that honesty earned our trust. His tenacity and professional outreach are the reasons we ultimately landed our new home. We never felt rushed or pressured; instead, we felt supported and empowered to make the right decision for our family.

Manesh and Tania were invaluable in helping us find our home. They communicated effectively with the seller and negotiated on our behalf with both the seller and lender. Their expertise made the entire process seamless and stress-free. I felt comfortable taking a step back while they handled everything, resulting in a truly positive experience.

Mariya Zheglov

Manesh and Tania did an outstanding job in helping us buying our home, they were next to us in every step of the process - from finding houses, to the emailing us contact information for the rehab. In addition to this - the speed of the process was great. By the end of the process - we became friends. I highly recommend them; you'd have people who are next to you not only for the signing but helping you with everything.

Amlaan

Working with Manesh & Tania for our first home was an exceptional experience. They were proactive, knowledgable, transparent, and responsive throughout. Manesh never rushed us in the entire process and encouraged us to consider both the highlights/downsides of the property which comes with his real estate expertise. They were both great at communicating key points which made things easier through the bidding, loan, and closing steps. Even after closing, they are in touch and guiding us through home ownership questions! We'd strongly encourage working with Manesh & Tania for your real estate needs in the Greater Seattle area.
