I would highly recommend Beth Jacobsen as an agent. I haven't had great experience previously with…read morethe house selling process and Beth was phenomenal. Incredibly personable and kind and walked me through the process with constant updates and making sure everything was up to date etc. She works with a professional photographer so photos are excellent and professional and her write up of my house was perfect. I can't say enough great things about her and my experience.

If you ever get the chance to meet Beth Jacobsen, you will know she's not only an amazing person…read morebut also the most knowledgeable and supportive realtor I had the pleasure of holding my hand through the home buying process. As a first time home buyer, and a single female on top of that, I really didn't have a clue to the way things naturally go in one of the most stressful processes in my life. I only say that due to the fact that real estate, escrow, and anything financial are completely out of my "wheelhouse". The beginning: Beth showed me a few places in the area, with variety of differences so that I could get a better understanding of what would meet my needs. She was transparent and brought up things that I never would have considered. The middle: I had an FHA loan and working with a builder on new construction. Beth was there to calm my nerves during a roller coaster of a process with preparing for underwriting, getting through underwriting and all with a very quick timeline. She knew what to look for and advocated for me through the process concerning both the financial and builder part of things. The end: I could not have kept it together without Beth, as my original title company was cyberhacked and basically placed everything on hold for days. She was absolutely amazing with working her contacts for more information, realistic estimates, and planning for these changes last minute. She advocated to get my file to another company to manage to minimize the delay in closing. With her by my side, I closed only 2 days later than planned, had the support to not lose my mind, and am now sitting in my amazing house that fits more than my needs. She also ensured (and has continued to do so) that I am settled and have knowledge of the community and resources. I cannot say enough positive things about Beth. I trust her inexplicitly, and I did not have the same feeling from the other realtors I worked with prior to meeting Beth. If you want the process done right with someone who has your best interests as a priority, she is the person to work with... and probably just have in your life.

Working with Leanna, I had complete confidence that the process would go smoothly and that I was in good hands. We got our dream house for the price we could pay.

Leanna's guidance and recommendations were spot on to ensure getting the best price for my house while spending the least amount of money. Leanna has a very responsive and timely communication style. She has a straight forward approach, which is refreshing these days. Her staging and use of Zillow showcase highlighted my home above the others. I received a cash offer for full asking price the same day that my house was listed thanks to Leanna. If you want someone you can trust, who shows up with a smile and does what she says she is going to do, Leanna is the one to call. She is also really funny and has some great social media videos.

I called around yesterday to different locksmiths in the area to have the lock box cut off. I spoke…read moreto a man who had experience with lock boxes and he told me that there is a law that a realtor has to claim their lock box in a timely manner or I am within my right to cut it off. Not only that but that their license can be suspended by the Oregon real estate board if they don't come and claim their box. I wrote an email to Amy and Deli and let them know about the information I had found out. This morning, someone came and picked up the box and gave me my key back. SWEET SUCCESS!!!! Deli actually got a "thank you" out of me this morning for FINALLY finishing this stupid situation. I will still be filing a complaint with the Oregon real estate board because I don't think anyone should be treated the way my husband and I were treated.

I had the privilege of working with Amy Manning as my realtor when I sold my home in the spring of…read more2013. Without hesitation, I give Amy my highest recommendation. She knows her market extremely well; she is diligent, responsive, and very patient. Amy is very professional and personable. She clearly takes pride in doing a good job. Amy took the time to explain every part of the legal paperwork required in a real estate transaction. She knew the contracts and addendums like the back of her hand. She explained the legalese in a concise yet thorough manner. The experience at each phase of the sales effort was superior, such as innovative marketing efforts, useful insights on staging my home, effective showings and proactive facilitation during the sale negotiations. My transaction was a challenge due to a lazy buyer's agent. Amy handled this situation with professionalism and poise. She successfully facilitated the completion of all the necessary tasks in a timely manner. Another challenge was that my house was a difficult-to-finance older manufactured home. Yet my house sold within 40 days of listing, and for almost the full asking price. They accepted the house in as-is condition! Amy is the epitome of professionalism and knowledge. It has been a real pleasure to work with her.

I've been using Wild Haven as a property management company for my house for several years. I saw…read morethe low ratings and that scared me, but I realize that most if not sll is from people looking to apply and having to have their credit checked. I'm sure that can be frustrating As far as managing properties they're five star. If you're renting from them, you can trust they'll take care of business.

I cannot recommend Wild Haven Property Management.

The whole point of a co-signer is to guarantee rent payment and that is exactly why I was a co-signer. The rental was, obviously, denied for lack of income. Either the policy is crazy or they lied about it; neither recommends them. Avoid them if you can.

HORRIBLE TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE My amazing father has dementia…read moreand my family is dealing with the many challenges that come with this disease including the loss of his drivers license and the decision that he can no longer care for himself. It was time to sell his home and he would move to a place where meals are provided and other care that he needs is available. Mind you my parents have only purchased 2 homes in their lifetime and still reside in my childhood home. They are not savvy or knowledgeable about anything related to selling a house. I was ultimately referred to the realtor's broker Melina who contacted me about my requests for fliers and/or a QR code and using social media to promote the house and specifically that in the walkable neighborhood of Englewood where my dad's house is located is a great way to inform people about my dad's remodeled and quaint home. I was told that fliers, social media and other suggestions for advertising were NOT within the advertising agreement that my dad signed with my mom present. They are responsible for signing the agreement but they also didn't know that for the agent/broker commission that all they would essentially receive is staging for a tiny 2 bed 1 bath home, pictures of the property and an open house (neighbors by invitation) the open house was self serving as a way to meet new potential clients and let looky Lou's snoop around the house. I was appalled and shocked no hustle, no strategy whatsoever to make this house move quickly. I believe the house had been on the market for not even 2 weeks and when Melina the owner of this company spoke with me she was a NIGHTMARE think Devil Wears Prada Linda Wintour kind of pompous, rude and condescending. I was hurt, felt disrespected and very upset by her actions and how she treated me. It led to a total breakdown in trust and confidence in her and her agent. I'm not sure if she had even the slightest twinge of care about my family and caregivers fatigue from caring for a family member. Selling his house included the dismantling of my dads home, belongings and it's a painful experience for him and our family. Hiring a realtor and a broker is supposed to take the responsibility and stress away from the family turning it over to "professionals" who happily collect commission and that is when we decided this was not a safe or honorable place to place our trust. The worst part is that I informed Melina owner/broker that my dad didn't have a copy of his signed contract nor did my mother. The broker said that it must be in a box from his move....ummm....No. Electronic email is standard for sending a contract. I did speak to Melina/owner-broker again and I was hoping for a chance to move forward and unfortunately I was again met with a communication style that was abrupt, harsh and her goal is about winning and being right instead of seeking to understand and find common ground. On the complete opposite spectrum our agent remained positive, kind, caring and compassionate. I highly recommend her and hope she's able to find a brokerage firm that matches her energy and professionalism. We appreciate her dedication to our family.

If you are even considering buying a home in Salem/Keizer, I need to tell you a story about an…read moreamazing woman and realtor - Melina Tomson. My Mom recently passed away from brain cancer. It was my job to "handle her affairs", one of which was to sell her home. We interviewed several people based on YELP reviews. We chose Melina to sell Mom's home. We had NO IDEA what a good choice we made. She staged the house just beautifully. Within days we got our first offer. But there were problems on the horizon. Essentially, my Mom's home (which looked beautiful) had a fair amount of deferred maintenance. Here's what we faced 1) sunken oil tank, 2) old roof, 3) heater air-conditioning needed to be replaced, 4) water main to the street needed to be replaced, 5) electrical panel needed to be replaced. That, combined with clouds on the title and some other "issues" meant that we had two "failed sales". Through all of this Melina was "as cool as a cucumber". She always had the answers. More than that - she always knew exactly the right person to call in to help. And, since she's worked with all these contractors before, she was able to get them to do the work with the expectation they would get paid at closing. She did all this with a super positive attitude. The house sold in a fairly short period of time considering the challenges. I don't live in the Salem/Keizer area so there is just no way we could have done this without Melina's finesse, knowledge, and hard work. If you are considering buying or selling a home in the Salem/Keizer market, your first move should be to pick up the phone and call Melina. I'm not a huge referral person, but I would take a phone call from anyone that has any questions. Melina is a rock star! Thanks! You are a friend of the family...
