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!

I just moved in and had such an amazing experience, i had to write a review asap!…read more Before move: From the start Jenny has been great. She was really prompt and forthright when i contacted via craigslist about the room and would check in every few days (in a sweet and not annoying manner mind you) about my interest, how my moving process was going etc. She was transparent and genuine and i never felt like i was being misled or asking too many questions. She very much focused on my feeling safe and a right fit for the place and current roommates than trying to hustle me into a contract. As i would be moving site unseen from out of state, i really appreciated this. I've never had such a caring and hands-on landlord-tenant experience before this let alone before signing a contract and moving in! Moving in: this was a breeze AND since i was coming from out of state, Jenny offered to pick me up from the airport, take me to run errands all before signing my contract! When signing paperwork, she pro-rated my rent as i moved mid-month though i had said i would pay for the full month as a guarantee for my spot. She even fixed and lent me her new bike without my asking as she knew i wouldnt have any transportation moving here. Also there was a delay in my stuff being shipped and they lent me a sleeping bag and offered an air mattress. Also her daughter was sweet enough to offer showing me around Eugene and going to the store if i needed anything. All of this really shows you how much they care about their tenants and treat us all like family. If you have a problem, the expectation is to go to them and collectively find a solution. I can't wait to develop this relationship further! The place: it's even better than the pictures! Everything is brand new and in mint condition, house is well-maintained and they are closeby and on hand to come fix or lend you anything as needed. All of their properties are in a GREAT neighbourhood - this location is hard to beat. I really feel like I've moved into a community and warm environment - not just a place to store my things. I am incredibly happy with my decision and would give more stars if possible!

The property owners here really make you feel welcomed and at home! They are always willing to…read moreensure that whatever you need done for your home is done. Very friendly, very knowledgeable and highly known around the South Eugene area. Don't look anywhere else! (:

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!

Finding a real estate agent in another state to refer your good friends and clients to, when they…read moredecide to leave California, is no small under-taking. 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!

They repeatedly gave us inaccurate information when I called them. At one point, they denied having receiving a wire transfer even though they had actually received it an hour earlier. On closing day, they demanded that we sign unnecessary documents that would have given up our legal right to a refund if the sale didn't go through. Most of the time that I called, I ended up leaving a voicemail message. Often, my calls were never returned and I had to call again. I would never recommend using them.

If you want to get taken for a ride, use Kit and her inspector…read more My elderly relative sold her home "as-is" and purchased another home that was also advertised and sold "as-is." During the sale of her home, she was required to address a long list of issues that cost her thousands of dollars to fix. On the home she purchased, the inspector reported that everything was in excellent condition. However, since moving in, she has had to spend thousands of dollars repairing numerous problems that should have been identified during the inspection. If the inspection had been thorough and accurate, many of these costly issues could have been discovered before closing, giving her the opportunity to negotiate repairs or reconsider the purchase. Based on this experience, I would not recommend using this agent or inspector.

Every single person you'll have contact with is so friendly & professional. They keep you informed every step of the way, they answer questions in a way that the least versed person (like me) can understand. After working with Nick Carter & his team for the past 5-6 years, I trust them explicitly and feel totally confident that they helped me make the best mortgage decisions for me and my situation.
