Highly recommend Marie Conser!

I worked with Marie in fall 2022 to sell my home prior to a move out of state. She helped me for several years before that while I tried to determine whether to purchase or sell. While out of state I did try to work with other realtors but never felt a connection to any of them or felt that they understood me the way Marie did. Marie always makes you feel like you are her favorite client, and her focus is 100% on you and your needs. So when I decided to return to Portland, Marie was the first person I called. Marie toured many properties remotely for me. She would send lengthy detailed videos both alone and as part of video calls. I did finally fly into town and Marie helped me tour a property on very short notice, make an offer, go under contract and get the inspection completed all in the span of 24 hours! I left my deposit check with her before flying back out of town and she handled everything from that point. Her organization is top notch. From crafting an offer, through inspections/repairs, to closing, you never need to wonder how things are progressing because she is in constant contact and manages all of it for you. She also has an online calendar to help you know where you are in the purchase (or sale) process and what the next steps will be. Marie really goes above and beyond what you expect from other realtors. She helpfully pitched in to help me move heavy furniture to stage my old home for sale and paid for a deep cleaning for the new owners. I thought that was really special of her, but assumed nothing big like that would be needed for this particular purchase. I was wrong though and Marie proved her worth again. I took possession of my new property at 11pm and the end of a long 3 days of driving across the country. I could not get the lock box to open and Marie not only answered my desperate text but immediately left her home and came out to help me get inside. She even left us a blow-up bed in case we needed it! For a realtor to come out at midnight to help a client get into their home is really special. (She arranged a deep cleaning too!) These are the kinds of things Marie does for her clients. You always feel like you are her favorite.

Marie is an excellent agent! She handled the sale of my childhood home after my father passed away. She is professional, knowledgeable and personable. She provided references for services we needed, kept us informed about the process every step of the way, and kept us on schedule to closing. Her experience guided us in setting the best listing price and marketing program, resulting in multiple offers within days of listing. We cannot recommend Marie enough!

Marie Conser is extremely knowledgeable, reliable, and professional. She goes above and beyond - always available to answer any question no matter how small. She is thorough, manages your sale from the beginning to the end, and includes every little detail. Besides all of her wonderful professional qualities, she is very friendly and personable. Marie is the best and recommend her to anyone looking to purchase or sell!

I knew that when it was time to sell my property, I was going to work with Marie Conser. I wanted to work with Marie again (Marie was by broker when purchased property in 2020) because of the trust I have in her and because I needed a partner in this process that I could be honest with about the whys and be honest with during the process. I also knew that she was going to approach this will full thoughtfulness and my interests at the center. I appreciated that Marie was strategic regarding the sale of property. She took her time to review the current market and the area the property was in. She also knew best how to appeal to buyers in the current market. But most importantly, I appreciated that she was consistently responsive. There are a lot of components and steps to the sale of a property. Marie was on top of everything and kept me up to date. It was amazing to have this be a worry free process. I literally didn't have to worry about this sale, thanks to Marie's confidence and calm demeanor.

I cannot say enough good things about Marie. I've worked with her before and she's amazing. Having someone who knew my personal history and who could advise me with my whole family's needs in mind was super important to me. I didn't even consider calling anyone else. Buying a house is a huge decision, and Marie was there for me every step of the way. One of my favorite things about Marie is how quickly she takes action on things. She responds right away to emails, and is available to show houses within a day. I was never waiting around or wondering what was going on at any point along the way. In a fast-paced market, she's the kind of agent that gets you the house you want because she doesn't hesitate. But neither does she pressure. She's there when you need her to be, no more. There were a few times I thought she would run out of patience with me as I asked her to show me house after house in a wide range of neighborhoods, and then subsequently wrestled with the logical and emotional aspects of finding just the right home, but she never batted an eye. She's truly such a warm, friendly professional. I had to remind myself that we aren't actually friends because she felt like a friend, and a good one at that! We shared some laughs and when things didn't work out on a few of the early houses I liked she was very empathetic. She's also super knowledgeable! She knows every neighborhood in the greater Hillsboro area like she has lived there personally! She knew noise was a concern for me a steered me away from houses on busy roads or near loud industrial areas that I would have otherwise not known about. And she's a real task manager when it comes to the closing process. She kept me organized with the tasks I needed to complete in order to close on time and honor the contract. And while she was able to advise me on what a fair market price offer might be, she also let me make the final decision on how much to offer and request in credits with no pressure. She's also very well connected and helped me find a great loan officer and inspector to keep things moving along with ease. TL;DR: Marie is incredibly reassuring and patient, consistently accessible and available, extremely knowledgeable of both the Portland real estate market and the buying and selling process, super well-connected, and an all around joy to work with. I would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home in the Portland Westside, whether this is their first home purchase or they are a seasoned investor. She will not steer you wrong, and she will work hard for you until the very end. I'll honestly miss being in regular communication with her now that my house hunt is over. She's a gem!

I met Marie at an open house she hosted in 2020. We remained in contact as I took time to determine whether I would be buying a new home or selling my home and leaving the area. When I finally decided to sell, I felt Marie really understood my position, situation, and needs. Moving is an overwhelming experience and realtors have to be managers, problem solvers and sometimes therapists to their clients. I was very grateful for Marie's organization and management skills and it seemed like she had a basket of solutions ready for any problem that could arise. Her online calendar was especially helpful to let me know the next steps and the overall timeline. I want to give an example of how Marie goes above and beyond for her clients. She hired a house stager to help arrange my furniture so my home could show it's best self. When she and the stager saw that I did not have anyone to help me rearrange the house, they jumped in and helped me move things - up and down stairs and from room to room. And it was hard work! I know that is above the call of duty but they saw that I was overwhelmed and needed help. It's just one small example of how Marie's service to her clients goes beyond what is expected. I will miss Marie and wish I were staying in the area so that she could help me buy a new home.

We moved overseas and had to sell our house in Portland. Marie was our realtor and helped us throughout the whole process. If you are looking for a realtor in the Portland areas and/or in Oregon, don't look any further, she is the best! Marie is an exceptional professional. She is very knowledgable, truthworthy, extremely efficient, organized, and proactive, and has outstanding communication skills. She keeps your informed of all the steps, and is always available for your questions and concerns along the process. Her marketing services are impecable and very efficient. She goes above and beyong in every areas of the process, and you can feel that she is genuilnely kind and compassionate. We had to close on the house after we departed Oregon, and we had to finish the sale process with a 9-hour time difference. Marie was available for us anyway and mindful of the time difference to make things happen. She also spontaneously offered to take care of a few items that were outside of the scope of her work after we were gone to make our life easier. Last but not least, she is multilingal and culturally sensitive, which was an important point for our family. She is simply a gem, and working with her has been a real pleasure and privilege. I wish we could work with her to find our new home in Europe!

Marie Conser is the absolute best realtor we could have ever hoped for. We used her once before and will with any future home buying as well. Her knowledge about not only home buying but about so many other aspects of the process is beyond compare. Her attention to detail is extraordinary. She sees things that go unnoticed by me and my husband & her patience and understanding with us through the whole process is incredible. My husband and I joke that we wish we had a stack of her business cards because we would recommend Marie to any and everyone in the home buying/selling process. She is remarkable.

In the Spring, we decided to move to Oregon to be near family. We initially saw a house online that we really wanted to purchase, but since we lived out of state, I sent a picture of the house with the For Sale sign showing Marie Conser's name to our local Realtor, who contacted Marie about the house and also vetted her. Our local Realtor indicated that Marie was very knowledgeable and suggested we speak with her to help us in Oregon. Our Realtor called Marie to reach out to us. Marie immediately called us, set up a zoom meeting for later that day where she answered all of our questions and the rest, as they say, is history! Unfortunately, the house she was marketing that initial day, was already under contract, and so started our search together for our Oregon home! Marie is very knowledgeable, goes above and beyond in every area. Marie was always willing to assist us, answer any questions (big or small) and stayed in constant contact with us throughout the entire process. Marie made herself available when I was in Oregon for limited periods of time, met with me to show me several houses during those short periods, pointed out things about windows and soil (only Oregon people are familiar with), and then continued meeting with my daughter who facetimed us through many homes (one of which is the home we now own). Throughout this process of house hunting, Marie has pretty much met most of my family, who all think highly of her as well. Since we were in the process of selling our home to move to Oregon when we met Marie, we requested a contingency purchase. Over this time period of looking (shortly after the height of the market), we have put offers on four different homes, but the contingency restriction caused us to come in second and it was very discouraging. Marie continued to encourage us, and we continued looking. Her knowledge and expertise in preparing the offers helped us to where we did come in first. But, we actually bought a home that we had been second on (that fell out of escrow). When we say, it has been an adventure, we do mean just that, and Marie has handled it all amazingly! Marie arranged the inspections, and has helped in so many countless ways, well above and beyond what many Realtors would do for their clients, and so very much appreciated by us! The transition of selling and moving to a new state, coordinating two escrows within days of each other, went very smoothly with the help of our awesome Realtors! We thank you very much, Marie, for all you have done for us! We have and will continue to recommend you to anyone looking for a home! We wish you the very best. We pray we do not need your Realtor services for a very long time, but will always be happy to see or hear from you. Blessings to you and yours, Marie!
