We live in California and just bought a lovely house in Eugene...- which we literally could not…read morehave done without Kelly. She not only educated us on the market and the area, she literally represented us every step of the way. She visited several houses for us and provided us with detailed videos of her walk-through, plus her educated opinion, which made us feel confident enough to purchase a house without ever going to Eugene ourselves until after the deal was done! Kelly was always quick to respond, kind, professional, and willing to patiently answer every one of my questions. I also appreciated that her descriptions of the houses were always objective, unless we asked her for her opinion, in which case she'd always offer her smart and honest input. We are extremely happy with the house and how easy, smooth and enjoyable the whole process was. If you are looking for a realtor in Eugene, go with Kelly. You'll be in the best hands!

Kelly was exactly the partner my husband and I needed on our search for our first home. As amateurs…read morein the real estate world, I always felt like Kelly had our back. She helped us sharpen our critical thinking skills as it related to placing offers and negotiating and she helped us narrow our focus so we ended up with a home that really met our needs and was within our budget. She was straight forward, knowledgeable, a great communicator, and also really funny. I'm so glad we are finished looking for a home but at the same time I also miss perusing them with Kelly! I cannot recommend her enough!

We can say without a doubt that Amy is the best realtor we've worked with, hands down, among those…read morerepresenting us as buyer or seller. And we've worked with some experienced realtors over the years. We initiated a home-buying process from out of state, and Amy made herself readily available to preview a home, take video to share, and/or Facetime with us as she conducted a walk-through of a home we liked. When the time came for our in-person tours, Amy planned the itineraries thoughtfully and with a keen instinct in guiding us toward our preferences. We all know moving can be highly stressful and Amy's calming demeanor and "this will all work out" approach gave us plenty of peace of mind, even when the road seemed a little bumpy. On top of that, she is a well-networked realtor with many local recommendations for work that may be needed: flooring, painting, general contracting, and more. Amy's work ethic inspired confidence during the entire process, from start to finish, and with unrivaled client service skills--you won't find as responsive a realtor! We would hire Amy again without reservation, as either a buying or listing agent.

Working with Eugene's Alternative (Tawnya Madsen) was a true pleasure…read more Tawnya is, hands down, the most impressive broker/ agent whom we have ever worked with. Tawnya was responsive, organized, diligent, easy to work with and very professional. Tawnya was pleasant to work with and very receptive in supporting the back-and-forth negotiations between the Buyer and Seller to ultimately arrive at the correct selling price for both parties. As an out-of-state buyer, she was fantastic in supporting a smooth transaction in every way!

After chatting with a few Oregon real estate agents, I stumbled upon Eugene's Alternative Realtors. What a name! "Alternative" perfectly described my friends so I dug into who these alternative agents were. Bingo, landed on Tawnya Madsen who has a background as a lawyer and mediator. It's as if the heavens opened up...and after a Zoom call with my clients we all agreed it was a MATCH. Not only that but within weeks, they found a house they loved. Tawnya managed the transaction and took care of all the first-time buyer questions and concerns, coupled with the buyers not being local to the area during the process). I will be happy to refer Eugene home buyer future clients to Tawnya and know they will be in good hands!

This review is overdue. Celeste was a godsend in selling our house in Eugene. We started with an…read moreagent who just wanted to upgrade everything in the house for a quick sell, with no regard for how much it would cost us. We were going to lose money with him. The contractor he hooked us up with took forever to get a job done and was sloppy in cleaning up, etc. Then we found Celeste. She worked with us to reduce the cost of fixing everything, touch up paint instead of brand new paint, touch up cabinets, etc. She brought a knowledgeable handyman with her for odd jobs who was timely and efficient and cleaned up after himself. She guided us through the process with kindness and patience, explaining market dynamics for cost, etc. It was a huge relief to work with her. We felt truly taken care of, in every sense. Here's to you, Celeste. The bay area awaits your visit!

She immediately set about finding several homes of varying styles across the various neighborhoods. It provided an excellent introduction to Eugene as well as allowed her to decode our tastes. With a clearer view Wendrika was able to ferret out several worthy candidates. She honed her innate sense of what we would, and wouldn't, like by pushing at the boundaries and helping us to see the possibilities in each home. Wendrika loves homes and it showed throughout our interactions. While not initially intending to go into a big remodeling project we fell in love with a fixer upper and made an offer shortly before Christmas. Wendrika moved heaven and earth setting up an extensive lineup of inspectors and engineers during the holidays to assure two nervous potential homeowners of the viability of the choice. Her efforts were truly heroic, well beyond anything we would have asked, culminating in an on time close. If you're in the home market, you couldn't do any better than Wendrika.
