Lee's Profile

https://www.leedavies.com/

 

As a native Oregonian and graduate of the University of Oregon, Lee Davies is a true expert on the Portland Real Estate market.

Lee Davies in an industry leader on the Portland Real Estate market. In fact, you could say he was born for it – Lee’s father owned Bill Snyder Company Realtors® and in 1986, Lee joined the fold. In 2007, ELEETE Real Estate was born (previously named Lee Davies Real Estate).

After 20+ years working in other Real Estate firms, Lee decided to venture out and open his own firm, ELEETE Real Estate, taking some of the most valuable assets of Real Estate learned from mentors along the way.

The Real Estate industry is crazy!  It is the one industry in which you can hire an inexperienced, unaccomplished agent, or one of the best/top 100 agents, yet the cost to you as the client is virtually identical. However, many clients don’t recognize the value differential an experienced broker brings to a transaction.

Even after 30+ years as a top residential real estate producer in Portland, Lee remains passionate and enthusiastic about educating, representing, and serving clients. His record of excellence is the result of listening, learning, sharing, advising, negotiating, selling, problem solving, and successfully representing over 2000 clients. 

Lee continues to actively meet and consult on every client file. He is quick to evaluate, incredibly creative, and a proven negotiator. He is passionate about presenting the pros and cons of a property to prepare and empower the client to make informed decisions. Whether it is creative home design and preparation strategies for a seller or sharing the vision for the upside of a purchasing opportunity for a buyer, Lee KNOWS how to maximize and/or preserve his client’s equity. While we all enjoy the raw emotions of truly falling in love with a home, Lee’s clients appreciate his business perspective. From his proprietary price report methodology to his market absorption analysis, he is insistent on backing up the acquisition or sale with factual data. Lee is committed to doing the best job possible when it comes to marketing, service, and representing his clients. Nonetheless, in the end, it’s personal; Lee is not satisfied unless every client is happy. 

Lee’s sales team boasts over 40 years of combined experience and functions as one agent. Lee acts as the primary strategist and negotiator while his team agents execute the field work with their perfectly matched client. In the end, it is Lee’s goal to provide each client with a versatile and accessible team. The entire Lee Davies Team can be reached via our team phone number, 503-468-3660, which rings every team member’s cell phone.
 

Lee is also the founder and visionary behind ELEETE Real Estate and continues to own the company today. 

In 2007, Lee opened ELEETE because he felt clients deserved more – more than just one autonomous licensed broker working for them. At ELEETE, all clients are served by a minimum of a two-broker team with at least one accomplished Senior Broker. Each team is backed by the ELEETE Staff comprised of 8 experienced specialists. The ELEETE Staff works behind the scenes to ensure each client’s marketing and service plans are fully executed. This allows our clients to have brokers who are truly full-time, professional practitioners in the field, focused on serving their clients.  

When he is not busy representing clients or studying market trends, you can find Lee enjoying family life with his wife Lori and their five children: Owen, Joey, Michael, Sydney, and Natalie. Despite working 60 hours each week, Lee makes time to enjoy the family’s hobbies. Lee loves to chase the powder at his favorite skiing spots, cycle through the beautiful Helvetia and Yamhill countryside, cheer on Owen at basketball tournaments and take long walks with the family’s labradoodle, Basin. As an outdoor enthusiast, Lee is always excited for a new adventure, whether that be recently learning to surf or navigating a new mountain biking trail.


Lee's Transactions


Sorry we are experiencing system issues. Please try again.

I have worked with Lee Davies on a few real estate sell/purchases over the years. He/His team is always focused on the clients needs. They have a true understanding of the market as a whole and understand every client, even a returning client needs individual and unique industry advise. A sell/purchase during this pandemic gives a new meaning to customer service and Lee and his team did not disappoint once again.  Thank you to team Lee Davies.

Barbara F. - Portland, Oregon

It had been over 25 years since we had bought or sold a home and Lee Davies/Jen Holland helped us do both , in a very competitive market. We found a home that we liked in a neighborhood we have always been interested in and contacted lee for help in the buying process. He and his associate Jen Holland helped us to write a winning offer and then helped us navigate the inspection period. We also hired them to list our existing home which , at over 100 years old, was a special property that required a buyer who understood the special properties of a historic home. Jen’s attention to detail through the marketing process and Lee’s strategic advice on fielding the many offers we received in a short time were invaluable in securing a successful sale at an excellent price. This is an experienced team who has no doubt seen it all!

tuchmanns - Portland, Oregon

“Lee and his team did an amazing job from the first meeting to the final sale. We met, they gave us a precise analysis of our home compared to others, gave us recommendations on potential projects, great communication throughout the process. They managed the process of the jobs they suggested, getting contractors and managing them. They worked with us to stage the home and we were blown away with how great it looked when complete. It was a totally different home. In closing the sale they got us an extra $5000 more than we were asking. They were efficient and their expertise and professionalism is second to none. I would highly recommend you using them, but only if you want top dollar and want a team that is incredible. You could also use A family member or friend who wants to try to sell the house, but only if you don’t want all those things I mentioned. We considered that, but our money and the largest investment we have was too important to us. USE THEM, YOU WILL ONLY BE AMAZED AS WE WERE.”

Ron Herdina - Portland, OR

We enjoyed working with Lee and his staff. We listed the house with Lee in December, in a tough market. The house was priced correctly, the marketing was done professionally and the house sold within weeks. We had a closed transaction in January. We were pleased with the sales price and the efficiency of the process. The staff at Lee’s office were friendly, communicative and very professional. Thank you again Lee for a positive experience.

Bill T. -

Mr. Davies and Mr. Kuehl:

My family met Jeff Koegler at an open house last fall and ended up working with him as our buyer’s agent.  I want to let you know how great Jeff has been.  He has gone above and beyond any expectations I had of a buyer’s agent.  He promptly returns calls and emails, answers all of our questions (no matter how stupid) and puts up with our rambunctious kids.

As a city attorney I have been involved in hundreds of real estate transactions and I like to think I know how to negotiate.  The Portland housing market is very unique and caught me off guard.  Coming from the Midwest  I was not prepared for the nuances to Portland.    Fortunately we had Jeff  who was able to strategize and help us successfully get an accepted offer in the neighborhood we wanted, well within our budget.   I will definitely be recommending Jeff and Eleete.

Jason L. - Portland, OR

I listed my home with Lee after a disappointing effort with another agency. Lee and his team did an EXTENSIVE review of activity in the area that now only included current listings but what had actually sold recently. Then Lee performed a comparison of my home with others and gave a detailed evaluation of the selling price of my home. The team (Megan Westphal and Lee) then made recommendations on what should be done to the house to raise it’s appeal (painting , yard work, etc.) Megan took on the role of project manager and coordinated the contractors to get the job done. She is incredibly impressive, responsive and professional. Lee and his team take on the sale of your home as a PROJECT– not just a short term transaction. We closed on the sale this week. I could not be more impressed and I would only work with the Lee and the ELEETE team in the future.

Joe M. - Portland, OR

The Lee Davies Team is the most experienced and professional group of Realtors we’ve worked with. Having done several transactions with them I can say that they have unique knowledge of our market area and a keen insight to the process that allowed us to minimize market time and maximize our selling price.

Ted S. - Portland, OR

Lee Davies and the team were always very accommodating. It was great to have the ability to call them anytime with questions. We were looking for a particular house and they found the one we bought – just moments after it became available. They’re always on top of things.

Myrna & Lew - Portland, OR

I have had the pleasure of working with Lee and his team on 4 separate transactions. They are all extremely personable, professional, and very thorough. Bending over backwards to do everything they can to achieve our objectives – always. It’s no surprise that Lee’s Team were the top performers last year. It’s been a great pleasure working with them. I’m confident we’ll be working with Lee and his team for any future real estate transactions.

John M. - Portland

Our house was on the market for 12 months with no realistic offers. After handing it over to Lee Davies and his team, it took just 3 weeks to get an offer that met our expectations.

Christof & Victoria - Portland, OR

We found an amazing dream home prior to being referred to Lee;  our thought was all Lee had to do was write up the sale.   Instead, he pointed out several concerns that we had overlooked.   His detail orientation and honesty were both invaluable and refreshing.   After three months of Lee’s creativity and negotiation with multiple parties, he was able to address our complex issues based on insights from his years of experience, and we are much happier new owners as a result.

Kirk S. - Portland, OR

Your slogan of ‘Lee Knows,’ could not be more accurate. It’s all that needs to be said at how knowledgeable and savvy you are with your business.

Mary Beth W. - Portland, OR

We used Lee and his team and had a great experience. They are the ultimate professionals. Thank you.

Michael O. - Portland, OR

I highly recommend Eleete Real Estate. I have done two transactions with Lee and his team and the experience was outstanding. The team has great knowledge of the area, but most important, they really listen to your needs and concerns. Everything was handled with the utmost professionalism, zero pressure and response was immediate to our requests. Whether you are buying or selling a home, Eleete Real Estate is the best choice for the NW Portland area, no question.

Benjamin T. - Portland, OR

Lee and his team recently sold our Northwest Portland home. They were extremely professional, aggressive without being pushy and I never felt like they were focused on anything except the success of our experience. I absolutely feel like Lee and his team know this market better than any other agency and it showed in the guidance they provided. At the same time, when we made decisions in the process, they were able to follow those directions. I would highly recommend them to any potential home seller or buyer as a partner throughout this process.

Troy S. - Beaverton

We are writing to express our pleasure with Lee Davies, President, Principal Broker of ELEETE Real Estate who represented us in our purchase of a single-family home. Lee and his team of professionals guided us through the entire process, from loan prequalification to searching for houses to making the offer and closing the deal. We credit Lee and his team with a smooth, stress-free home-buying experience. This was our third purchase of property, and never have we had such a pleasurable experience. Lee is savvy, personable and knows the market inside and out. We never could have gotten our dream home without him. To reiterate, we are nothing but pleased with Lee and his expertise and we recommend him to everyone who is interested in buying or selling a home.

Nore B. - Portland, OR

We have had three different transactions with Lee and we would highly recommend his company. Lee was very helpful on both sides of the transactions as buyers and sellers. He is very knowledgeable with market inventory and often has advanced notification of homes coming onto the market before they are listed which is a wonderful advantage for his clients. Additionally, Lee had a moving truck available for his users which was very convenient. From start to finish, our experience was very positive.

Patrice W. - Portland, OR

Lee Davies has represented us on numerous buying and selling transactions and we have been very pleased with Lee’s knowledge of the market and his ability to navigate complex real estate transactions. He is very well connected in the community and he has built a very customer focused sales experience that we have not seen from any other real estate company. The process ensures that your transaction has focus and attention from Lee and his real estate team. We have found that Lee’s involvement in the community, personal integrity and market knowledge are a very difficult combination of skills to match.

Matt & Clare - Portland, OR

We have used Lee for both finding us a new home and selling ours. He is highly skilled at both aspects. He immediately understood what we were looking for in a new home and was able to find us exactly what we wanted. He is an effective negotiator and advocate during the transaction. He and his team were extremely efficient in selling our old home. They marketed our house beautifully and made the whole process stress free. We have recommended Lee to several people. All have been very pleased. Lee is the best real estate professional in NW Portland and we would utilize his services again, without hesitation.

Pat & Randi - Portland, OR

Working with Lee Davies was great! Megan Westphal, his Broker Assistant was exceptional! We were selling two houses and purchasing a third, and all of the transactions were without complication and seamless.

Nelson F. - Portland, OR

We chose Lee because we knew from experience that he had the broadest local presence for the area to represent our home to sell. We also chose him to help us select a new home to buy. It was a very hot market and we had to be ‘first in the door’ to get the home we desired. He was able to get us into a couple of houses before they even hit the RMLS. We are so happy with the home we found. We never dreamed we find such a perfect spot! Thank you Lee!

Luanne S. - Portland, OR

We had the pleasure of working with Dirk Hmura and Lee Davies on the sale of our home and the purchase of a new home. They properly priced and staged our home for sale. We sold our home for within 5% of the asking price in a very difficult market. Due to their team approach someone is always available at a moments notice. They helped us find a home we love. We competed against several other offers but still paid less than the asking price. We highly recommend them.

Jennifer M. - Portland, OR

Lee Davies really hit the ball out of the park as our selling agent. We came to Lee after six months on the market without a single offer. After the passive performance from our previous agents, Lee was a ball of fire. He started off with a slide show of 25 properties and comparative analysis to our property in key desirable factors. Then he gave us recommendations on how to price if we left the property as is and what we might do to add value or improve the buyer pool. There was no pressure to go in either direction, just the data to make an informed decision. When we chose to upgrade the property, Lee carefully advised us on where we would get the best return. He even selected paint colors, carpet and interior fixtures to appeal to young buyers. All we had to do was confirm the choices. He assigned two associates to obtain bids and schedule contractors for us. Lee knew we wanted a quick sale and kept steady pressure on getting the work completed. The work done inside and outside, plus beautiful staging, gave the house a model home feel that was both comfortable and polished. Five weeks after contacting Lee we went back on the market and had two full price offers the first day, reclaiming all of our investment in the upgrades and then some. This was a great day! Now we know how important choosing the right real estate agent is to selling a property. Lee Davies is at the top of his game and comes with our highest recommendation!

Margaret K. - Hillsboro, OR

Lee is easy to work with and really takes the time to understand your needs. His marketing materials are first class and showcases your home in the best possible way. If you are looking to buy or sell, I’d highly recommend Lee.

Barbara - Portland, OR

Lee and his team are nothing short of spectacular! This review is extremely late but I am one of the lucky few to have worked with this team on the (very quick) sale of my townhouse in Beaverton. After a recommendation from a colleague, Lee called me the same day and both he and Megan were in my home the next day for assessments. They were extremely knowledgeable, quick, resourceful and very good at explaining the process. They had the place ready to go in just a few weeks! After some relocation hiccups, we listed and accepted an offer the next morning! I would recommend Lee and his team to anyone looking to sell or buy their home. They were very professional, fun to work with and very accommodating throughout the process. Thanks Lee, Megan & Scott!

D. Cook - Beaverton, OR

We were extremely impressed with Lee Davies! Lee is polished, personable, and professional. He had constructive feedback on each property so that one could make the best decision- whether buying or selling. His years of experience shine through in the knowledge of his market and finding the perfect fit between client and home.

Geoff & Mica - Portland, OR

We often say one moves homes to be in a place of higher consciousness. Todd and I moved four times over the last 15 years! Let’s just say some of us enjoy shifting more than others! Throughout our journey, Lee has been our trusted guide, facilitating four transactions with excellence and ease. The caliber of service at ELEETE is stellar. As a father and community leader, Lee values his clients as if they are his own family or neighbor. In turn, we have valued this collaborative partnership over the years and continue to recommend his expertise to our friends and colleagues

Drs. Yasodha Gopal & Todd Caulfield - Portland, OR

I have known and worked with Lee and several members of his team on 3 transactions. His team sold one of our houses; listed and sold another which was and still remains the “neighborhood high water mark”; and helped us buy our current home. Lee has always impressed me with his analytical analysis of the market, where to price to sell, at what level to buy, and getting the deal done.

JM W. - Portland, OR

It was great working with Lee and his team. Lee’s team was very flexible, as we were still living out of state, and had limited time to find the right home for our family. We have recommended Lee to friends and colleagues who were in need of a real estate professional.

Helen K. - Portland, OR

Lee and his organization are true experts in their geographic areas, They know the little details of the neighborhoods that make a difference when you are buying and selling. Lee’s firm is very well respected and that makes negotiations appropriately professional and swift. Lee is a true real estate icon in the area and that will ultimately be to your advantage as it was to me in both my buying and selling transactions with Lee.

Mel & Teresa - Portland, OR

I highly recommend Eleete Real Estate. I have done two transactions with Lee and his team and the experience was outstanding. The team has great knowledge of the area, but most important, they really listen to your needs and concerns.
