“Jessica has been an incredible partner in both selling and buying our homes—twice now! Her responsiveness, expertise, and dedication to our needs made the process smooth each time. She guided us through complex situations, including supporting us when we chose to withdraw an offer due to inspection issues, and her expert negotiation saved us tens of thousands on our current home. Even after closing, she remains a valuable resource. We couldn’t be happier with her commitment and highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a truly exceptional agent!”
Jessica was an absolutely amazing realtor and advocate for our family through our recent home purchase. She explained the process with clarity and prompt responsiveness throughout the entire home search endeavor. What truly stood out to us was her sincerity to serve our best interests. She was not afraid to give us honest feedback even if she knew it might not be what we wanted to hear, but most of all she was supportive of our decision to walk away from a deal that suddenly didn’t feel like it was the right home instead of pressuring us to complete the sale. Even now that the deal has settled, she still continues to be our partner and has assisted us through post inspection repairs and connecting us with licensed professionals to help us complete projects to truly make our dream home. 11 out of 10 stars for Jessica!
Jessica was just wonderful from start to finish. Our property had incredible potential, and she partnered with us to make it the best we could. She was thoughtful, motivated, and realistic. This is NOT our first go-around in real estate and we interviewed multiple agents – Jessica came out on top because she presented herself as a well-balanced agent who would stick with us for the (emotional, mental, and financial) journey. And that’s just what she did, all the way to a full-price closing. I would not only highly recommend Jessica, but I would be happy to utilize her services again in the future!
Jessica’s experience really showed from the very beginning, when I was just putting my own house up for sale in Tennessee and though visiting houses while also refining my priorities, to the conclusion of closing on the right place for me. Jessica is very resourceful and is very connected with service providers of endless types who are able to evaluate any issues and communicate effectively. Jessica runs down every question and provided key advice and observations. I recommend Jessica to anyone needing a Real Estate Professional.
Jessica was great to work with! She understood my values and advocated for me, making me feel confident every step of the way. On the first day that I met, she spent hours answering my questions, walking me through the “big picture.” The amount of effort and time she put into walking me through the process is unbelievable. I would trust her with my eyes closed and her attention to detail and level of time to her clients is outstanding. I’ve recommended the team Jessica to everyone I know. She is a true professional and a genuinely nice person.
Our experience working with Kristen cannot accurately be described in words: a few adjectives that come to mind are stellar, excellent, efficient, understanding, knowledgable, outstanding. Initially, Kristen met with us, got to know us (in order to know what we want), and then went on the search. The first property we expressed interest in, Kristen herself went to look at it, and immediately told us it was not a good fit for us, and she was 100% correct. She then found the properties that we eventually ended up buying, and they are both gems. Was it luck, or was it Kristen’s innate ability to understand her client’s needs? Definitely the latter… Having worked with other real estate agents in the past, we can definitely compare, and confirm that Kristen is the best we have ever worked with. A good example is the following: when Kristen sends clients potential listings, she doesn’t just put parameters into RMLS and let the software spit every listing into your inbox. Instead, Kristen combs through the listings, picks the ones SHE feels are a good fit, and then sends them to your inbox. This kind of client-service is simply not found that often anymore, and we can’t recommend her enough – she is EXCELLENT!
Victoria was a great help in selling our home that we had lived in for 23 years. She guided us through the process with her expertise and professionalism. We listed our home when the market was unfavorable and the timing was not ideal, but she did not give up on her mission. We would love to work with her again, whether as a buyer or seller.
“We could not recommend Jessica enough! The process of buying and selling homes is extremely stressful and Jessica was so patient with us and really helped us make the best decisions with both buying and selling. She listened to what you wanted so well I almost think she knew what we wanted more than we did! She has exceptional communication; great at answering all questions, so kind when things are stressful, and very firm when advocating for her clients. I truly felt that Jessica was our biggest advocate in this process and that is the most important thing with such a big life decision. 13/10 stars!”
I noted one closing we completed with Chris (a recent second home/condo purchase) but it doesn’t come close to the number of transactions Chris has managed in my extended family. Seriously, parents (several), brother, brother in law, father in law (several, several), mother in law, friends, etc. We call Chris for everything. He’s knowledgeable, knows Portland metro better than anyone I know, and has an amazing group of inspectors, lenders, and closing officers that he can connect you with. Chris is honest, down to earth, and so enjoyable. You’ll love working with him – he makes it all so easy to navigate!
We made the right decision to work with Jessica to sell our house, especially given that we did the entire transaction from out of state. We spoke with several realtors – Jessica was first on our list. We ended up going with her because she demonstrated the best working knowledge of our neighborhood and came prepared with up to date neighborhood comps. Jessica presented a clear, logical marketing plan and we agreed with her pricing strategy over others.
We were prepared to hunker down and possibly take 1 month or more to get a sale in this market. Needless to say, we were delighted to get an offer on the 4th day of the listing and it closed in 23 days. Yes, the house was in overall great shape, plus, we listened to Jessica and spent money to fix things up and stage it. Money well spent. Jessica was easy to work with and flexible which was enormously helpful given we weren’t there. A lot of details we needed her to handle as our ‘boots on the ground’. We can wholeheartedly recommend Jessica and would use her again if that ever presents itself in the future.
Jessica is simply the best! I have owned homes previously but being widowed and starting this process by myself initially was daunting. Jessica immediately helped me feel at ease with the whole process of getting my home ready to sell and finding the perfect new home we are now in. She walked me through every step, was patient with me when we had to put things on hold a few times due to the market, and answered every silly question I had. Jessica knows the Portland Metro area well! She is forthright, works hard, and knows how to negotiate to get the best sale for her clients. And she just has the best positive and pleasant way of working with every person who is a part of your home selling/buying process. Again, Jessica is simply the best!
Not only does Jessica possess superb negotiation skills and bargaining tactics, she is an absolute delight to work with. She is always on top of things, and she knows how to pull together contractors and workers to get your home in tiptop shape for selling. She really goes above and beyond to make sure that you are happy, that you are getting the best possible price for your home, and that the work being done on your home will provide a return on investment. Jessica is low pressure and sharp as a tack, I’ve seen her hold contractors and other realtors she is negotiating with accountable in a way that remind those she is talking to what their responsibilities are without alienating in any part of the process. I cannot say enough positive about my experience working with Jessica and my gratitude for selling our home at the highest possible price and getting into our beautiful dream home.
