Customer Testimonials
"Elias exceeded our expectations at every turn. His communication was stellar and always timely. We felt like we had a strong advocate in our corner, and not someone just looking out for their own interests. Every step of the process felt comfortable, and Elias made buying our first home easy. We fully recommend Elias as a realtor for his excellence and professionalism in the field."

"The home buying experience can be both exhilarating and overwhelming. Christina Day proved to be the perfect guide as my wife and I looked to purchase our first home together. She was flexible, accessible, and always willing to answer any of our questions. We couldn't be happier to have had Christina by our side throughout the entire journey!"
Erik and Katie, Portland (Buyer) Fri, 29 Apr 2022 02:44:13 +1000
"Lori is our neighbor. We had a great impression of her character when we entered conversations about her becoming our relator. Good character, which Lori definitely has, prevails as a leading cause for us to choose a relator. Lori was in our corner the entire time, professional, quick to follow up and move things forward, and she is a person of her word. She knows the business well and did an outstanding job despite the difficult market we were in!"
Timothy Makin, Oregon (Buyer) Wed, 20 Apr 2022 05:21:28 +1000

"Melissa was recommended by a colleague. We did not know anyone locally since we moved from out of state. Much of our search was conducted virtually. Melissa was great and secured us a house in a tough market. She was extremely responsive, friendly and professional. She put in a ton of effort to make our dream home a reality."
Alli F., Corvallis (Buyer) Tue, 12 Apr 2022 09:53:41 +1000

"I met Elias Comfort at an open house, and I asked him if he was familiar with the loan program I wanted to use, and he was not but said he would look into it. He gave me a referral to an excellent broker who was very familiar with the loan program.
This interaction demonstrated how Elias works. If he didn't know something, he found out. He consistently removed or lowered hoops for us, and took care of so many logistical issues that would have caused us added stresss. His people skills helped us get our offer accepted at the first house we put an offer in for, and he got us some closing costs too! We did not expect that in this current seller's market.
Elias was communicative and responsive to our needs and we never felt any pressure from him. In fact, he took pressure out of our process by arranging and scheduling inspections and contractors to get the keys to our first home into our hands!
We couldn't be more grateful for Elias and look forward to recommending him to friends."
Heather and Dan, Portland (Buyer) Sun, 20 Mar 2022 03:11:43 +1000

We will highly recommend Beth.

Thanks again"

"My wife and I were considering whether or not to sell our home and purchase a different one. After our initial meeting with Melissa Corsetti, we felt confident that she was the right person to help us navigate the process. She was knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and responsive.
Melissa was extremely savvy during every part of the selling and buying process. She handled everything smoothly. We felt confident that she understood our needs very well. She was available anytime we had a question and she answered all our questions in ways that we could understand. She anticipated every step. She professionally maneuvered us through the negotiations. We absolutely give her all the credit for getting our offer accepted in an extremely competitive market. We are now in our dream home because of Melissa Corsetti!"

I will recommend her to all my friends and family and always use her in the future."
Toni, Portland (Seller) Mon, 20 Dec 2021 05:34:37 +1000
"She handled the home sale of a close friend and colleague and went way above and beyond to help him sell is homes in a rather difficult situation. She provided ideas and all kinds of help and support from the beginning to the end. That's what we wanted, and we got all of that and beyond! Not sure we could have done it without her.
Tina went out of her way to stay in contact with us through every step of the process from beginning to end. It was also great that she was present for our signing and other important steps along the way. She is still involved with helping us transition from our home. She is remarkable, trustworthy, professional and caring about our needs.
Can't say enough how accessible and helpful she was from beginning to end.
Incredible and we could not have managed this without her."

"Melissa was fabulous. Every minor detail was covered before you could even consider asking. 100/100 would recommend"
Jenny Sweeney (Seller) Fri, 17 Dec 2021 11:12:26 +1000
"Beth Corey did a remarkable job in selling our house. She’s professional in every facet of the business, from staging, upgrading and updating advice, showing and marketing the house and her interaction with other agents and clients. Beth made herself available virtually 24/7.
She sold us the house 22 years ago while with another agency, her service was impeccable. It made a very easy decision to list the house with Beth even though she had changed agencies in the interim.
Because of her guidance and advice we ended up selling the house for more than the listing and appraisal. A true real estate professional with the personal touch. We’d highly recommend Beth Corey and utilize her for our next real estate transaction."
Wade Mosby, King City and Lake Oswego, OR (Seller) Fri, 10 Dec 2021 14:13:03 +1000
"Could not have had a better team help us with the sale of our house than Jolynne and Malcolm. They were on top of everything and handled even the most smallest details (from staging, cleaning to helping manage contractors). This was truly the easiest and most relaxing house sale I have ever had.
I have sold over 12 houses moving around the country and I have never had a better or easier experience with realtors. As long as we are in Portland we will always use and recommend Malcolm and Jolynne."
Cynthia Shelton, Portland OR (Seller) Fri, 19 Nov 2021 09:30:50 +1000
"We knew Lori Ares from outside of real estate, but knew her to be a good listener, hard worker, family oriented, in the business for a while-experienced. We had received some listings of her recent sales that came as post cards, so when it came time to sell, we reached out to her.
We are so glad we had Lori as our agent. She was available to take our calls/answer questions, took time to listen, act, follow up, and execute what she said she would do, was considerate of our feelings and thoughts, and a good communicator. We are very happy with the results and the process to get there. We would use her in the future (we are using her on our new purchase also) and we would highly recommend her to family, friends and neighbors. She is a joy to work with and she worked hard for us as our sellers agent."
Bryan And Janis Toda (Seller) Wed, 03 Nov 2021 03:00:36 +1000

Marilyn, Hillsboro (Buyer) Wed, 27 Oct 2021 13:15:54 +1000
"Lori Ares is the best in her field! She truly does care for the people she is helping. I haven't moved in 45 years and this could have been an overwhelming experience. Lori sat with me and helped me through every step....always was there to answer ALL my
questions and always made sure I was never alone in decision making. Thank you Lori, this was an exciting part of my life and I am so grateful you were a big part of it."
Lynnette Luchau, Tigard, Or (Buyer) Fri, 22 Oct 2021 03:29:49 +1000
"Lori Ares helped greatly in the sale of our home, she always made sure to be on the same page. She made sure we felt confident in the whole process. She goes Above and beyond and is very respectful to all parties included in the sale. If you want someone who truly cares and puts her whole heart into her work I’d highly recommend using Lori when selling your home."
The Craig’s , Beaverton (Seller) Sat, 16 Oct 2021 03:24:31 +1000
"I've worked with Nathan on a few occasions now and have never been disappointed. He has always been knowledgeable, professional, punctual, and a master at his craft. With our latest home sale, Nathan provided thorough comparable market analysis to help us identify our price target and our house was under contract the day after listing. Throughout the process, he was always checking in and providing us updates. Without a doubt, Nathan made the home selling process easy and quick!"
Mike, Beaverton (Seller) Wed, 13 Oct 2021 12:32:33 +1000
"Micheal took care of us from the start. After our first virtual meeting with him, we decided to go with him because of his experience and dedication to helping us find the right home for our family.
I would recommend Michael because he is not only professional, he is empathetic, caring, and compassionate to the stress of the process of home buying. We had never purchased a home, and he guided us through the process of offering, negotiation, and closing. He was with us over facetime as we signed the closing documents just in case we had questions! I am over the moon with our experience working with Michael. It just couldn't have been any better."
Chris Thoms Tualatin, OR (Buyer) Wed, 13 Oct 2021 05:16:14 +1000
"Jeffrey had a good understanding of what I wanted throughout the process and effectively communicated with the buyer's agent. Jeffrey kept me well informed throughout the process.
It seemed Jeffrey was working day and night on my sale and that I was top priority!!
I would strongly recommend Jeffrey Dirrim. He is knowledgeable, trustworthy, communicates well and gets results!!"
Catherine R, Portland (Seller) Mon, 11 Oct 2021 06:58:56 +1000
"we would highly recommend Mary Jo Williams.
Since we recently moved to Oregon and never bought a house in rural area, we need lots of help from the professional agent. We were very lucky to meet Mary. She was outstanding on every espect and trustworthy.
We loved how she quickly responded to all of our questions as well as her knowlege of the whole process from start to finish.
Most of all, since the housing market is totally a seller's market, it could have been very comptative to buy this house. However, Mary guided us to a right direction to put an offer. Her advice did the major role of a succesful home purchase.
On top of this, all of her referals was very trustworthy as well. We didn't have any single complain during the home purchasing process.
We are estremely happy with the service provided by Mary Jo William."
Chris Choi, Oregon City (Buyer) Mon, 11 Oct 2021 05:57:40 +1000
"I would recommend Elias Comfort to anyone selling or buying a home in my area. He is always prompt and willing to reschedule appointments to accommodate a client, even on his birthday! He is very patient, wanting to make sure I was satisfied with a property. I would definitely suggest to friends and family to use his services."
ShayBay (Buyer) Wed, 06 Oct 2021 09:01:33 +1000
"Micheal took on a job that had very little success to succeed with a smile and determination. What we were looking for was an affordable house with an ADU. Not only did he find one, but negotiated a price we could live with AND some fixes that were needed. Always willing to talk, Micheal was able to calm the fears down and allow room for communication. I never felt like he was selling me a house. I felt like he was helping me find a home."
Christopher Furman, Portland OR (Buyer) Sun, 03 Oct 2021 04:21:22 +1000

"Very thorough and extremely knowledgeable on all aspects!
Very easy to get ahold of and willing to answer any questions we may have had.
Couldn’t have asked for a better agent to help out 2 first time home buyers!"
Kenny Willis, Molalla (Buyer) Fri, 24 Sep 2021 05:16:45 +1000
"Lori is incredible. We actually had bought and sold a house from her back in 2017 which was our first home. She sold that house for us too when we had to move to NY. We’ve always had nothing but awesome outcomes with her. So it was a no brainer when we decided we wanted to move to happy valley. She’s personable and kind and always goes above and beyond for her clients. If i ever had to move again, i wouldn’t even look at another realtor. We strayed from her once when moving back here from NY, which wasn’t on purpose but just happenstance, and I’ll never do it again. She’s incredible and truly listens to what you want and need out of a home."
Briana, Happy Valley (Seller) Fri, 24 Sep 2021 03:26:52 +1000
"I had an AMAZING experience working with Iraida. She kept us informed every step of the way. She responded quickly to our questions and made the entire process a breeze! She is exceptionally professional, efficient, and she made the home-buying process very enjoyable. I appreciate all her hard work and would recommend her to any homebuyer."
Angie B., Portland (Buyer) Wed, 22 Sep 2021 04:30:16 +1000
"Preparing my Mom's home for the market was a significant undertaking. We met Lori early in the process and she was a true partner to our family. I appreciated her sensitivity to our family dynamic and she maintained total professionalism throughout the process. What I appreciated most was the help
Lori gave us prior to listing. She was available whenever we needed her and stayed on top of every detail - and there were a lot of them!
I would highly recommend Lori to any friend or colleague. She truly earned every penny of her commission and then some."
Jodi Martel (Seller) Sat, 18 Sep 2021 06:50:53 +1000

Will use her again and refer her to others!!"
Amy, Oregon City (Buyer) Tue, 17 Aug 2021 17:00:08 +1000
"Chip is semi-retired, so he graciously agreed to take our listing. The interest in our property was quick and furious, but Chip kept up with the brisk schedule well. He canceled a vacation to service our listing, which was very appreciated. He kept us in the loop daily, and reviewed nine offers to present. We thank him for his diligence, as we accepted an offer that was over and above our expectations. Thanks Chip!"
Victoria Edens, Hillsboro, OR (Seller) Tue, 10 Aug 2021 01:58:33 +1000

Margaret LaFaive, Portland, OR (Seller) Thu, 05 Aug 2021 06:39:12 +1000
"Michael was friendly and willing to talk about all sorts of things but willing and able to focus of the business of selling my house. He was extremely articulate in explaining his marketing plans and strategies and also willing to take the time to explain the process"
Linda Kongslien-Crymes, Bonney Lake WA (Seller) Wed, 04 Aug 2021 05:14:57 +1000
"I couldn't more highly recommend Jeff Hjelte. He was knowledgeable about the area, the home buying process from beginning to end, professional and friendly, not to mention patient. He went above and beyond to address my questions/concerns and anticipated what might be important for our family based on getting to know us over time. He helped our family find our perfect home while navigating the competitive field with confidence. I'd recommend Jeff to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable resource for residential real estate."
Sara Hahn, West Linn, Oregon (Buyer) Sat, 31 Jul 2021 12:21:12 +1000
"Iraida was a valuable friend, resource, and support system throughout the home buying process. She demonstrated great insight and expertise around current, local market conditions and offered good advice on how to competitively position offers.
Iraida was prompt, attentive, supportive, and detailed throughout every stage of the buying process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to others.
Iraida is a consummate professional and is totally in tune with all of the practical aspects of the home buying process. But she also has an affinity and understanding of the often overwhelming emotional aspects of making a significant home purchase decision. She really demonstrated those softer, supportive skills that were so important to me as a single buyer.
Fantastic experience with Cheryl. She helped me find a support network of home-related services :-)
Overall, a truly positive and supportive experience. Iraida worked behind the scenes to make this process as smooth as possible and her network of connections and relationships helped make the buying process as seamless and efficient as possible. Iraida was able to secure for me what had originally seemed impossible: she helped me get into a beautiful house in a great neighborhood in record time - a remarkable feat given the challenging market conditions!"
Beaverton, OR (Buyer) Thu, 29 Jul 2021 03:52:52 +1000
"It was a real pleasure working with Jeff. He was professional, friendly and ready to help with anything I would ask him. I definitely would work with Jeff again. We have already recommended him to friends, relatives and colleagues. Wish him the best."

"If you’re looking for a real estate agent who embodies a strong work ethic, knowledge, organization, experience and great personality, Lori Ares from Berkshire Hathaway should be your agent of choice! Teresa T…more than satisfied customer!"
Teresa T. Portland metro area (Seller) Thu, 15 Jul 2021 02:52:39 +1000
"Janet is very knowledgeable and helpful. We have used her multiple times to buy and sell and highly recommend her and her knowledge is so good of the industry and what’s best for us. Janet Dalton was so easy to work with, so kind and friendly and really had what’s best for us in the listing and sale."
Jessy, Hillsboro (Seller) Wed, 14 Jul 2021 02:46:15 +1000
"Kylee is very caring about her clients needs and wants. I could not recommend her enough. She helped me greatly through the whole process."
Andre Bonilla (Buyer) Thu, 08 Jul 2021 13:29:09 +1000
"Michael Lukman had no flaws. His sale plan worked perfectly. I believe I got the most I could for the house, and I don't believe it could have closed any sooner. This was an estate sale, and I live thousands of miles away, but the preparation and process couldn't have been any easier if I had been living next door. He provided excellent references for several repairs and cleaning, and it all went perfectly. If I ever buy or sell a house again in Oregon or Washington, I will be calling Michael Lukman."
Cliff Carlin, Bakersville, NC (Seller) Sat, 03 Jul 2021 06:32:11 +1000
"We needed someone who understood the complexities of dealing with an estate sale and Nathan far surpassed that expectation.
Nathan was always a phone call away and kept in touch with us on a weekly basis throughout the whole process.
Nathan made a very hard sale experience much easier with his knowledge, tenacity and understanding.
Nathan was given an almost insurmountable task in selling a property that needed a lot of work but he definitely stuck with it through many ups and downs and got the job done!
I would definitely recommend Nathan to all my friends and family and will use him in the future for all my real estate needs."
Carla, Portland, OR (Seller) Wed, 30 Jun 2021 06:11:19 +1000
"Malcolm was my second realtor. I fired my first realtor due to unrelenting pressure to buy every house we looked at, it seemed as if every house was the right house for me. After taking a break, I was directed to Malcolm by three different friends who he had helped purchase houses. The contrast between bad and excellent was palpable. He is fundamentally different than other realtors - Malcolm actually understands what it means to be a fiduciary. He consistently put my interests above his own. There was only patience and learned advice as we navigated a months long search for my first home. He helped me find the right house for me, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. You could tell his goal was doing good business, with an eye on future referrals due to the quality of his service - never a short sighted focus on hurriedly closing a deal. I'd hire him again in a heartbeat. He was incredibly responsive, consistently delivering candid and correct advice. He gets it."
JW, Portland (Buyer) Wed, 30 Jun 2021 05:54:16 +1000
"Jolynne was super responsive and quickly "got" us and what we were looking for. She listened to our wants in a home and was able to quickly knock some houses we had seen on listing sites off our list based on what we said we desired. As we were first-time home buyers (from out-of-state, at that!), she walked us through all the steps and answered our questions patiently and knowledgeably. Jolynne was great to work with and we would certainly hire her again for future home purchases---though that might not happen as she helped us find the perfect home that we intend to stay in for a long time!"
Jean C, Bridlemile (Buyer) Sat, 19 Jun 2021 13:39:16 +1000
"Iraida is an absolutely fantastic broker. She is truly a professional and takes the time to understand your goals and needs before putting those into action. Her negotiation skills are second to none. She goes out of her way to make the process as smooth and transparent as possible, answering any questions we had. I would recommend her to anyone looking to by or sell in the metro area!"
Adam, Portland, Oregon (Seller) Wed, 16 Jun 2021 04:53:13 +1000
"Jeff came highly recommended from my wife's mother and he helped us buy a condo for family. From day one he was the most professional broker I've ever worked with. Reeling from my bad experience with the former broker that helped me buy the house that Jeff eventually sold I was extremely pleased to have worked with Jeff. Going back to Jeff for selling my home was a no brainer to me.
I originally approached Jeff this time to help with buying a new construction town house to downsize. Originally worried about taking a loss selling my home but we had the COVID housing winds behind our backs. This was months in advanced and we knew the market was warm at the end of 2020 but didn't expect what would happen in the Spring of 2021.
The experience of selling a home in this hot market was tiring with so many people visiting our house but it was worthwhile in the end. Jeff kept in contact throughout the entire process and kept us up to date on number of people coming to our house that day and the offers as they were rolling in. At the end of the week we had double digit offers and Jeff helped us filter through all of them to pick the one that stood out the most.
Post offer selection was a breeze with a simple inspection day and other inspections to help complete our very short closing period. Market conditions aside Jeff was there whenever we needed him. If I plan on selling my new construction in a few years I would not hesitate to contact him again."
John, Hillsboro (Seller) Fri, 11 Jun 2021 02:42:19 +1000
"Chip helped us every step of the way. He was even helpful in helping us liquidate a lot of our belongings that we needed to get rid of. He took a lot of concern and worry off our plates. We couldn’t be more thankful."
Dean Fritzke Bend,OR (Seller) Wed, 09 Jun 2021 07:51:59 +1000
"Lori listens to you and takes your vision to heart. She works proactively to give you the best opportunity to see homes and to make a bid in a timely and strategic way. She's knowledgeable and professional. If there's something she doesn't know, she gets right on the issue, doing research and contacting other experts. We found Lori very easy to work with and very approachable. She's excellent at communication, and kept us well informed on new homes and timelines, strategies, etc. We can't say enough good things about Lori and her invaluable help to us in finding and buying a home. Anyone would be very fortunate to have Lori on their team."
Pamela and John Street, Tigard (Buyer) Sun, 06 Jun 2021 12:28:25 +1000

Her communication was amazing. I would highly recommend Tina to anyone. Her work ethic is impeccable. The photographer and videos were amazing.

"We were specifically told by the sellers that Michael was one of the reasons we got the house. He was a great communicator and was on top of the details every step of the way. He was knowledgeable about the area and provided a lot of wisdom throughout our search and purchase. He was patient as we learned about everything involved in purchasing a home.
Michael was a joy to be around and made the whole process as comfortable as it could have been. Michael prepared us for each step of the process. He was honest yet encouraging about the current housing market. I highly recommend Michael Beirwagen."

"We met with Iraida when our family was needing more space than the adorable first home she helped us buy four years earlier. She helped us make a plan, but a meeting home, and sell that first home. Iraida’s frequent, clear, and supportive communication was key to selling our first home for a price that we were very happy with. She focused our efforts in getting the home ready to put on the market and made sure everything was taken care of all the way through closing."

"Nathan has been great to work with and was given a hard job of selling properties that were "less than desirable" Given those challenges he rose to the occasion and was able to get these properties sold at a fair price.
He has excellent communication skills and was always touching base to let us know how things were going and kept us in the loop on all showings, inspections and buyer broker communication.
Nathan is very pleasant and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate using him again in the future and recommending him to my family and friends."
Carla, Portland, OR (Seller) Wed, 28 Apr 2021 01:57:55 +1000
"In this market, we had low expectations on being able to purchase a home. Iraida was simply amazing. Despite multiple offers, ours was accepted and we are now living in our dream home. Our offer would never have stood out if it weren’t for her belief in us and her advocating on our behalf. She truly cares and did everything possible to get us into our home."

"From Doug & Ruth -
Lori is the best broker we have ever been privileged to work with. Of the 9 homes we have bought and sold over the last 45 years she represented to us the most knowledge, experience and loyalty that we have ever had. In the up and down years of buying and selling, we were impressed with the confidence we gained in using Lori as our broker. She honored our desires, needs and beliefs and was still able to instill sound reasoning within us as she developed an excellent plan of action on how to price, market and sell our home.
Lori gave us creative ideas on how to stage our home that really worked. One of the most important things was her ability to adjust when we decided to sell our home a month earlier than expected because of the current housing market. She moved quickly to alter the game plan ending up in an - successful sale. It is because of her hard work in searching for a new home for us that we are able to buy the home we are now going to move into. It was amazing to watch Lori help in coordinating a purchase agreement of our new home only 5 days after we closed on the sale of our old home.
It always felt like Lori was working only for us even though we knew she had many other important clients. When Lori did not know the answers we needed to issues or questions surrounding the buying and selling of homes she had numerous, excellent contacts. We have used some of them and they were all wonderful, knowing exactly how to meet our needs. She has created a wonderful team to help coordinate every part of her home selling and buying effort.
We highly recommend using Lori has an excellent real estate broker to meet anyone’s needs.
Lori did such an outstanding and thorough job presenting our house that it sold within three days with eight offers that were all over the asking price with the final sale being for $55,000 over the listed price!
We could not have used a better broker than Lori.
We always felt that Lori was there to hear what we had to say and that she was always willing to talk with us about anything."

"I got Kim's contact info from a neighbor that sold their place. They highly recommended her. I'm so glad because she far exceeded my expectations. Communication and follow thru were very timely (even when she was on vacation). Everything was flawless, I would not hesitate to seek Kim's services again."
JJ Johnson, Portland, Oregon (Seller) Wed, 14 Apr 2021 04:27:12 +1000
"We love Kim Gellatly! When it was time to sell our much-loved home, we didn't consider anyone else. As first-time home buyers with no money to spare, Kim helped us purchase our home for less than $200,000, and when we were ready to sell it eight years later, she helped us sell it for over $500,000. She is an aggressive negotiator, incredibly savvy, and cares for each of her customers as if we were the only ones. We have loved working with her, both times, and would unhesitatingly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home or property."
Emily Hunt, Tigard (Seller) Tue, 13 Apr 2021 07:04:47 +1000

I knew that Lori works hard for her clients. She is there 100%.
They were good resources throughout the process."

"I was referred to LJ after she helped my best friend sell her house in my old neighborhood. We hit it off right away! She helped me sell my own house, four years ago, and more recently, helped my husband and I sell his house and purchase a new one together. I was so glad that these new transactions permitted me to work with her again! I doubt we will ever sell this house, but if we do, LJ will be my first phone call."
Amanda from Sherwood, Oregon (Buyer) Wed, 17 Mar 2021 01:56:42 +1000
"L.J. Thomas is an outstanding agent, either buying or selling. She really went out of her way to get me a sale, with the terms and conditions that met my specific and unique needs. She's very responsive to questions, and makes sure you are comfortable with every step of the process.
I had previously worked with L.J. before. In fact, 18 years ago, she helped me buy the property she just helped me sell! We always got on well.
L.J. is all-around awesome!"
Mike Oldham, Woodburn (Seller) Sat, 06 Mar 2021 12:33:41 +1000
"L.J. Thomas was a delight to work with and was able to get our house listed on a Friday night with an accepted offer by the following Monday morning! L.J. was always very responsive and looked out for our needs and best interest throughout the whole process. I strongly recommend her for anyone looking to sell or buy a home in the Portland area."
Paul Van Arcken, Sherwood Oregon (Seller) Thu, 25 Feb 2021 03:14:30 +1000
"Lori listened to our concerns and expectations and then shared her philosophy and strategies. Great communication throughout the entire process, which is exactly what we were looking for! There were no surprises and the entire experience of selling our home and finding a new one was incredibly smooth. We interviewed 3 realtors and decided to go with Lori and she did not disappoint. I would highly recommend considering her for your next home transaction!
Knowing our personalities and our selling situation, Lori suggested a pre-inspection. Can't say enough about what a fantastic idea that was to eliminate any surprises and prevent us from being in a financial bind with the purchase of the new house!
Lori is fantastic in everything listed above! We appreciated her expertise and her vast network of professionals that also helped with the process."
Alex VP, Happy Valley (Seller) Wed, 24 Feb 2021 10:02:43 +1000
"Janet is considered a family friend, she helped us out when my grandmother needed to sell her house some years back and kept in touch with my mother. When I was purchasing 5 years ago I got in contact with Janet and she helped me get into the house that we just sold, which was an amazing starter home and the experience could not have gone easier. To me the idea of selling the home without Janet's help wasn't going to be an option. Janet is an expert in her craft and values the relationships that can be built over the bottom line of making profits, she approaches the situation with open honesty and has the customer's best interest at heart. These types of interactions and the relationship building provide the desire to have Janet's help in future transactions, or if not available, then I would highly consider another agent from Berkshire Hathaway."
Brian Farrow (Seller) Sat, 20 Feb 2021 03:02:39 +1000
"I could not say enough good things about Kim. There is not a single thing I would change and I feel like I'm the type of person to have high expectations. Even with that, she exceeded all expectations. We never had to wonder what was happening. She checked in regularly and always answered our emails promptly.
Kim's plan for our house was perfectly planned out and perfectly executed. Her marketing plan and reaching out to other agents clearly worked we had over 30 showings our first weekend. We had a dozen offers and ended up with an above asking sales price.
Kim had the perfect personality I feel like we were so lucky to have found her. Not only did she perform well, she was a warm, helpful, understanding person.
Thank you Kim!"
Jenna W., Tigard, OR (Seller) Fri, 19 Feb 2021 04:00:54 +1000
"As I have many brokers that are friends, I would not have used Berkshire Hathaway if not for Mr. Bierwagon's experience and performance in the real estate space.
Mr. Bierwagon's excellent communication before, during, and after the sale was another very important aspect of choosing Berkshire and him specifically.
Mr. Bierwagon is the immanent realtor in all aspects of knowledge, experience and communication. His knowledge is unparalleled, his experience brings the highest price in any market, and his communication is one of deep sensitivity and trust to all parties. I will solely use him on all of my real estate transactions.
Far exceeded my high expectations and my best experience to date in the purchase or sale of the many properties I've had over the years. After using Mr. Bierwagon as my realtor, no consideration of any other crosses my mind. I strongly recommend him for any real estate transaction and will exclusively use Mr. Bierwagon in the future!"
