They help their sellers do an impressive amount of prep work to get the home ready for market, and it shows. Karoline and Wick are very accessible and helpful to potential buyers, by giving one-on-one help during their open houses and answering emails/ phone calls with promptness and accuracy. They have a good grasp on the market and the many complicated layers that go into a house. I would highly recommend doing business with them.

My husband and I are brand new to the Portland area and were referred to Ashley Realty by my…read morecolleague. She had an incredible experience working with them, and as first time home buyers, we were nervous and excited to get started. We worked closely with the entire team (especially Steph and Jess). They were incredibly patience, practical and efficient and really took the time to educate us about the different neighborhoods and what our money can get us. We felt like our expectations were realistically set and there weren't any crazy surprises because we felt coached every step of the way. Wick used to be a contractor so he helped us understand how we can improve and update some of the homes we saw, and that was really valuable for us to get that perspective. My husband has a more flexible work schedule than I do, but they accommodated our schedule and worked closely with us via a text thread and email and we say them several times a week for a few months. We landed a gorgeous home in Eastmoreland and are thrilled! I would happily recommend the entire team to anyone looking to relocate or find a new home in Portland, they know their stuff and are a pleasure to work with. Happy happy clients!

This is an update to my previous review. I have since…read morespoken with Jenny, one of the owners. She became aware of my emails only after seeing the review. The "clientcare" email isn't monitored so she's having it removed. As far as my concerns about feeling unprotected and stumbling into this mess, she explained they don't have access to previous transactions not involving their own company. That meant they did not see previous inspections showing the need for repairs. With that in mind, she'll ask agents and inspectors to be more assertive about the potential buyer having a full and complete inspection report before signing anything. So I'm changing my review back to 5 stars because Emmy was amazing, and the owner was responsive once she knew of the problem. I'm satisfied with the outcome. ....now, the FLIPPER--that will be a different review altogether.....

We had a great experience working with Emmy Ward at Lovejoy Real Estate. Emmy helped us buy our…read morevery first home, and we couldn't have asked for a better realtor. She was incredibly responsive, reliable, and kept us informed every step of the way. Thanks to her knowledge of the local market and efficient communication, she got us into our home quickly and ensured a smooth, fast closing--which meant everything to us in a competitive market. If you're looking for someone who's knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about helping you find the right home, then we highly recommend Emmy. She made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and even enjoyable.

Scout Rentals wants you to think they are a high-end rental agency, but the only thing high-end is…read moretheir price. Fortunately the homeowner advocates for us as renters, because Scout is unprofessional, greedy, and lazy. They do not communicate or respect our time or wellbeing. They are chaotic in their communication process, constantly switching between email, text, or their app. Most recently, they scheduled the house exterior to be painted without telling us. This resulted in pressure washing while windows were open (the crew tried their best to shut them), damaging our blinds and soaking the home's wood floor. It also got paint chips in the flower pots and on our toddler's toys. We had no communication about the painting, which caused strong fumes that we did not feel were safe for a toddler. Scout's failure to even attempt to inform of us the painting damaged our property, damaged the owner's property, and risked the health of our baby. Unacceptable, but not surprising from them based on our experience living here for the past 2.5 years. We do love the rental house itself and the location, the only thing that is terrible is working with Scout.

If you care about your property, stay away from Coldwell Banker United Brokers property management…read more They won't share any information and qualification on how they place the tenant. Then They put unqualified tenants in. Multiple late/close to cut off utility bills unpaid, policy call, etc. At move-out, broken window, the backyard was a mess, junk left in house and not clean. The place can't even be show due to broken window. Months before tenant move out, I asked that no utilities bill come from security deposit. They need to send notice to have the tenant pay the bills. However nothing was done. Of course there was no detail on how the security deposit was used. They just said it's all used up to pay for utilities and damage so they don't want to manage it anymore. So I am left with over $500 to clean the place, remove junk left by the tenant, and lost over 1 month worth of rent. Unprofessional, irresponsible, lack of communication and no respond to inquires.

This happened to my neighbor and I am writing the review since she doesn't have yelp:…read more Honestly really disappointed in Paige Abu-Nawwas. I am in school to be realtor and i hope i never get to be like this. I was interseted in 14015 NE 76th St, Vancouver, WA 98682, $1800 Water and Sewer included rental property. I had to blow her up on Facebook messenger, on Truila, and here on Zillow. I never once got a message back from her except when i first initially wanted the property and she said the renter was turning keys over 9/27/2023 at 3pm (red flag 1: why list it for rent if the people are not out, red flag two: she said she could not keep up with the messages, red flag 3: communication with her was horrible) and i asked about application and how i could fill one out asap as i gave notice to my rental already and need to be out by 10/15/2023, no response. messaged her a few days before and after that still no response. facebook ad gets taken down, i ask if it was rented and if it was water/sewer incuded, no response. i email her, no response. i called her 4 times, no response. message her on zillow 7 times, no response. well my neighbors sees the ad today (9/29/23) suggest it to me, i said "thats the place im after! its next to my daughter school and in my budget as i make 3x $1800! its perfect! i even met the nice neighbors! im kind of concerned about the rat issue though. and the neighbors told me W/S included!" well lucky enough my neighbor is looking for a place too and messages her. NOT EVEN 10 MINTUES LATER, SHE INVITES HIM TO GO SEE THE PLACE SUNDAY. are you kidding me????? and good luck calling the battle ground coldwell office, they dont answer either. I have a 775 credit score, no debt, no collections, no judgements against me, i have been in notary/process serving for 5 years, i have 5 years of great rental reference and i have my neighbors as reference and even my current landlord because she loves me, no criminal background. all around a awesome tenant to rent to and nothing stopping me from renting anywhere. my kids are not loud or destructive. when i buy a house next year, i know what company not to go through.

You know those companies that are under the radar - and if you are lucky enough to find them you…read morehave an outstanding experience? The ones that work by referral and do a modest amount of business because the principals are hands on each step of the way? This is that company. A vendor told me a story in passing of a real estate agent experience she had years before. She had worked with the real estate agent twice. The first time she was encouraged to write her wish list... No matter how seemingly unrealistic. She asked for a yard, and a river view.... something that would seem way out of her price level. This real estate agent found it for her on a property not on the market yet. The story sounded so different than my experience with average run of the mill real estate agent. I guessed the agent was retired, but asked if she was still working. Her name is Mary Mayther Slac. Once we met, she sort of vetted me. Was I a good client? I had homework to complete so she could get a clear picture of my home. Or in her words, "So I could get a clear picture of my home." If you believe in thinking from the end, that your home is out there waiting for you with just the right timing, and that universally your picture will bring your home to you - this woman will blow your mind. I started working with Mary in today's market. She knows the neighborhoods with so many decades of experience. I am an interior designer and she knew more about Portland neighborhood and architecture than I do! She knew houses that were built with better quality building materials, flood areas, she looked pointed our needs for electrical, heating, roofing and other home repairs while I walked the homes. To my surprise, it only took a few weeks of concentrated effort to find my home. When I lost my first couple offers, Mary would redirect me each time into focusing on what house I wanted, and she would ask me to keep the picture in my mind of the house, the neighborhood, the interior, the amenities, and how the house was going to feel. Mary was calm, assertive, even funny and knowledgeable. Her negotiation with the other agent and asking questions allowed me to secure a dreamy home, when there were other offers... even several offers that were over mine. She is creative in offers, understands the seller may have other desires other than price. I know so many real estate agents. This gal is seriously at the top of her game. Hire her!

Do not enter a transaction where Mary is involved…read more We recently purchased a home where Mary represented the sellers. At some point during the closing process, she allowed property that was legally a part of the property transaction to be removed by the sellers. These air conditioning units were included in the property sale and listed in the MLS and all other communications created by Mary (Redfin, Zillow, flyers, etc.). In fact, in a personal conversation with her during my visit to the home she highlighted the efficiency and effectiveness of these air conditioning units. When asked to return the property Mary protected her clients and made no efforts to return or recover the stolen property. She is misleading, dishonest, and believes her and her clients are above accountability. Stay. Away.

This was by far the best property manager I have ever rented from. We lived in one of their houses…read morefor 3.5 years, and of course in that time minor issues come up that need fixing. Brook did a great job balancing professionalism and friendliness, was easy to work with and always sent a maintenance person within a few days when needed. (It was never "Oh we'll send someone out in a few days," it was more "How does Thursday morning sound? Can you wait til then?" - this is an important distinction because if something had been really urgent I know they would have worked maintenance in ASAP.) Another small thing - many times when I emailed them, I would receive a helpful message back not just within the day but within an hour or two. My roommates and I were respected and treated like humans, not just warm bodies to fill the space and make money. I was shocked when I learned that Willett has a bunch of properties because it felt so personal and down-to-earth to work with them. We even got our full deposit back - after ALMOST FOUR YEARS of living there. To be fair, we scrubbed the heck out of the place over several long days, but I've never worked with a property manager that doesn't try to grab as much of the deposit as possible. We only terminated our tenancy because I got a job in another city, but if we move back to Portland we'll be in touch with Willett about their vacancies for sure. It's not that we were really "spoiled" by Willett... it's that this is how property management should be: clear, communicative, and relational.
