During our search, she really understood what we were looking for and never tried to steer us into something that wasn't right for us (or our budget). She was happy to meet us at odd hours to see properties and showed us some great neighborhoods that met our criteria. When we found a house that suited us (in a very desirable NE Portland neighborhood), Rachel helped us craft a really strong offer that was accepted over a few other offers. Finally, Rachel was extremely helpful during the inspection, negotiation, and closing stage of the process. She has a great eye for details and is very knowledgeable about the inner workings of house systems. She also knows lots of local vendors and contractors. Our repair addendum was successful and it netted us some nice improvements in the home before we closed on the deal. Rachel is good at what she does, but she is also a pleasure to work with--we had lots of questions as first-time buyers and she was always happy to answer them, plus she was friendly and fun to be around. If you're looking for a Portland realtor who is down-to-earth, savvy, and "gets it", give Rachel a call.

Rachel guided us and was very patient. She cares about helping people find their home, not just a house. When we did find the right home, she was incredibly valuable in brokering the deal at lower-than-asking price. She provided us with excellent references, including a great contractor. She is a top-notch realtor because of her knowledge, resources, references and, most of all, caring personality. We could not have done it without her and will not hesitate to use Rachel again in the future.

From the first email I sent Jennifer, she was kind, professional and it was obvious that she cares about the people she works with. It took us a few tries to have an offer accepted but she didn't give up on us and helped us through the ups and downs. There was never any pressure to put in offers, the most important thing was that we found something that we wanted. When we finally found our place, the seller's agent was pretty difficult to work with but Jennifer was on our side and helped protect us from the that added stresser. I'm actually sad that I won't be messaging her every day anymore and that our time together is over. I really don't know if I could have gotten through the buying process without giving up if I didn't have her knowledge and guidance through everything. Looking back on buying our first home, she'll definitely be one of the top happy memories of the whole experience.

Amanda was amazingly patient with my 5 million + questions and was able to provide the information I needed. And if I asked a question that she didn't know the answer to, she knew where to go to get the information. She took the list of our dealbreakers, wants, needs and set us up with wonderful searches that eventually led us to the home we closed on one month ago today!! With the current COVID environment and the insanity of this housing market, she was very open with what could happen vs. what normally happens and it was comforting to have someone that was able to keep my panic at bay. If/when we decide to sell the home she got us into, I will absolutely be calling Amanda! In the meantime, I will be referring anyone I can!!!

Our wishlist wasn't easy as we needed land for our farm animals, a new high end home and an ADU for a parent that we care for. Our previous home was our first and the realtor we had used for that purchase was really a disappointment. They didn't advise us through the process at all and as a result we ended up stuck with a home that needed more work than we had realized going into it. When we decided it was time to move on, we knew we needed to find a more knowledgeable and proactive realtor and Cheri came highly recommended by a friend we trust. From the first phone call, we knew it felt right. Cheri asked all the right questions, offered free advice and just genuinely sounded passionate about getting us into the perfect place that would make us happy. That passion was carried through and proven time and time again up to and even after we moved into our dream home.  Our path to a new home came with a lot of hurdles as COVID hit right as we listed and began our search. If it hadn't been for Cheri, we would have given up so many times. She was there every step of the way though, in constant communication to keep us motivated and informed. She went above and beyond at every stage; staging the home with such a great eye for design, having amazing quality photos and drone videos taken, marketing the property, in negotiations etc. She set us up with all the contractors we needed and even lent us her trailer for the move. The list of ways she went out of her way to make this a great experience for us seems endless. She did all of this while simultaneously putting the same level of effort into finding us our dream home.  Cheri is everything you could want and so much more than I ever realized you could get from a realtor. In the end, we didn't only gain a realtor we could trust, we gained a friend. For all of these reasons, and so many more, I cannot recommend Cheri enough. Your search for the perfect realtor ends here.

Her experience and knowledge in her field is what helped me get the house of my dreams. During our home search, she listened and paid attention to the needs of our family to the point where we felt like we were on the same page at every home tour. She was very tuned-in and remembered every detail of our "must haves" and "dealbreakers", which took out the confusion and stress and helped make it all a fun experience. She was very easy to coordinate with and provided lots of honest, informative feedback when we asked for it. When it was time to sell our home, her hard work paid off. We sold our house in record time and well over asking price. She is such a professional and genuine person, and I believe that having her at the open house is what helped us get all the offers that we did. I highly recommend Niki and am so thankful that she was a part of it all.

We have multiple family members who had worked with the Moran Homes team previously and had a really pleasant experience, which made it an easy decision to work with the two of them. Susie and Josh took the time to understand our needs from the get go and were very attentive and communicative throughout the whole process. As a team, they are super knowledgeable about the Portland market as well as what to look for in a home and what types of upgrades/adjustments might be feasible. They were patient with us and we felt that we had two advocates looking out for us which was a great feeling. If we ever decide to move, we'd definitely work with them again!

I contacted Yamuna Benedict based on the recommendation of a mutual friend, and I am extremely satisfied with the service we received. From the beginning, Yamuna was enthusiastic, responsive, and very professional. She somehow managed to communicate well both with me, using real estate jargon and speaking to me as a colleague, and with my husband, who needed everything put in layman's terms. We also received assistance from William Shpak, who took us to some of our showings and was with us the day we found the home we decided to buy. William is bright and personable and extremely pleasant to work with. Yamuna did a great job negotiating our offer and got us under contract at a price and terms we were very comfortable with. Throughout the escrow process, the entire team at Peggy Hoag was excellent, keeping everything on track and providing us with all the information we needed. And even though we were buying a house in the middle of the pandemic, the process was just as smooth as it would have been anytime, and we closed on time. I would definitely recommend Yamuna and William to anyone looking to buy or sell a home, and I look forward to working with them again.

Throughout the entire sale of my home, from our initial phone call to even after the closing of the sale, I was 100% confident that we were on the exact same page about everything and that she was strongly advocating for my best interest.

My wife said working with Suzanne was a breath of fresh air. One thing I especially appreciated about Suzanne, is that she gave us a price breakdown before listing, and during our negotiation period, so that we had close rough estimates of what we would be walking away with. She was also upfront about her commission, which I appreciated as sometimes real estate can have many hidden costs to inexperienced sellers and buyers. She priced our house just right, and helped us through negotiations. We will 100% be going back to Suzanne when we are ready to buy.
