Jose Maciel
Yakima, WA - Jul 31, 2026

Cory helped my sister and me through a home sale with more than its fair share of complications. We received multiple offers, worked through inspections and negotiations, and even had an accepted offer fall through because of the buyer’s financing. Through all of it, Cory remained responsive, patient, and steady. He did a great job explaining the strengths and risks of each offer, including financing, appraisal concerns, closing-cost credits, and inspection terms. He helped us look beyond the highest price and make decisions based on which offer was most likely to close and provide the best overall outcome. When circumstances changed, he always helped us come up with a practical new plan and put it into action. We also appreciated the work he put into preparing and marketing the house, including professional photography and cleaning, which brought strong interest and multiple showings. Since we were managing the sale remotely, having someone dependable on the ground made a major differ

Cory and his team are knowledgeable and experienced and made our real estate sale fast and easy. He always explained options and pros and cons, and he never gave false expectations or predictions. The sale was quicker than we expected, and we are totally satisfied with his service.

"You will not find a better realator in the Yakima Valley. We researched before calling Cory. His experience and record indicated he is one of the best realators. After working with him to buy our new home and sell our old home we can say with authority he is extremely knowledgeable and competent. You'll not find any better."

"I couldn't have had a better experience. Cory is fantastic! I've worked with him twice and he has the highest morals, ethics, and customer service. I met with other realtors that greatly overinflated the market. He was thorough, made adjustments as needed, and extremely knowledgeable. If I had listed at a higher price I would have been worse off after dropping the price!"

"I was first weary about contacting an agent to help me find and buy a house because I thought that I could do this myself. Well let me tell you theres so much more to buying a house. I contacted Cory about a house he was listing and he knew so much about it although it didnt work out we stayed in contact and continued to view houses and use his knowledge to better understand the houses we were looking at we eventually found a house and he got us exactly what we wanted out of the deal. I absolutely recommend Cory if you want to buy or sell."
