“Gladys and Troy Blum did an outstanding job as we received an offer within days after it was listed. Their photos and listing details were amazing and I believe were instrumental in helping us sell our home so quickly. This is the 2nd home that the Blum team sold for us and I highly recommend them. Thank you Gladys and Troy for a job well done.”
“It was a absolute pleasure to work with Kevin.”
“Laurice was the best referral I've ever received, she went above and beyond for me and my families special needs. My home had burned down, I was devastated, hopeless and heartbroken! She assured me we would find my new home. Laurice showed me any and every home I wanted to see and suggested many as well. When I found thee 1, Laurice got me the best deal! I was shocked that she stood her ground and it all worked out, when I never thought it would! She was so supportive and her communication was very up to par. I will always recommend her to anyone who is looking for a home. She got me my beautiful forever home and I am beyond appreciative of her and her spectacular services!!!”
“Brooklyn Morgan went above and beyond with getting me into a great house. She was an awesome help , especially when there was something I didn't understand , she explained it so I did understand. She worked extremely hard to get us into the house we were looking for. She looked out for us as the buyer. I was super lucky to get her as real estate broker. She is literally constantly working for her clients.. I highly recommend other clients go with Brooklyn Morgan..”
“Josh was a pleasure to work with. Very knowledgeable and responsive.”
“Gary was amazing to work with. I appreciate his knowledge and expertise. His patience with me as this was a first for me he was very easy to work and was very good about setting expectations for the process. I would highly recommend working with Gary to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional broker.”
“Great, I felt good about choosing to go with Val, put my trust in her after speaking with her then watched her do what her Magic. Before I knew it, we closed on the sale of our home. Price above what we asked and added a lot of things that let us stay in the house to get things moved. I wouldn't think of seeking anyone else if I'm buying or selling. Her experience is obvious as she maneuvers things and for the sell. The best! ”
“My agent was very professional and followed up with me for about a year to get the listing. He did a great marketing job to get it sold. I had upgraded the property and never once did I have to visit the property to take care of an issue. My agent made sure it sold as is.”
“Chuck was fantastic!!!! He helped me and my wife through all of the "sometimes stressful" process of buying a home. While I never met Chuck in person, he made me feel like he was right there the whole time always getting the info we needed in a very timely way. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to purchase a home. I have bought and sold a few homes in my life, and I feel that I could trust Chuck at all times. ”
“Five-star quality realtor, Rick Maurmann. I highly recommend him for real estate in the Salem, Oregon area. First-class service, timely support, great results! ”
“Excellent. Shannon couldn't have been more helpful. She was efficient and professional, was able to receive an acceptable offer within 24hours after listing the home. We sold our home the next day. Best experience my wife and I have ever had throughout the six times we sold homes over the previous 45 years.”
“Pat was great! Followed through with all her promises and facilitated a good buying experience.”
