I was a smaller client than Maui's typical clientele and I felt like a big client. The team is professional and expert - I had great experiences with Chelsea and Cody as well. I'm so grateful to have worked with this team and I could not think of a better team to put your faith in for such a major purchasing decision. Maui was not only a good buyer's agent for me, but incredibly knowledgeable when it came to questions regarding building. HIGHLY recommended! Thank you, Maui.

I have bought and sold many houses in my 81 years and Cody Cornett is the best realtor I've ever…read morehad. He knows the housing market, he immediately understood what we were looking for, he knew every house that was advertised in The Dalles, and was willing to spend many hours with us to find the perfect house. He knows the business side of the process inside and out and was always able to answer our questions. The ability that sets him far above anyone else I've ever worked with is that I truly felt that I was the only person he was working with. When I called, he was almost always available. If he wasn't available, he messaged me to say when he would get back to me AND he always did. When the inspection report was negative, he helped me get past my anger and disappointment. He is always so positive!!! I was so impressed that I asked him to help me sell my house in Portland. Even though that's 90 miles away, he was able to help me get my house on the market with great pictures, the right price and we sold the property very quickly. The buyers were difficult and their realtor was dragging his feet. Cody's people skills made the difference between a happy sale and a lost sale. If I could nominate him for realtor of the century, I would.

It's big, it's beautiful, and we feel very fortunate to have purchased it. I don't think it would have been possible without Jorge by our side the entire way. He was patient, he was insightful, and he knew the right amount of assistance to give and when to give it. At this point I feel like I know Jorge better than I know most of my friends and vice versa. He's definitely invited to our housewarming party. I've never used another real estate agent in my life, but I've met quite a few and Jorge isn't like the rest. He's friendly, he's genuine, and he's a good person. I will probably never do business with another real estate agent in my life.

I was referred to Becky Schertenleib at Columbia Gorge Real Estate by a friend. I needed someone…read moreto sell my father's home in The Dalles, Oregon. Because I live in Arizona, I wanted someone who would be willing to work with me long distance. Becky went above and beyond to assist me in this long-distance home selling process. I needed someone to maintain my father's yard until the sale. She provided me with several names of companies, and I was able to make arrangements with one of them to assist me. There were several items that needed to be addressed after the completion of the home inspection. Becky notified me of these items. She provided me with the names of and/or contacted providers of the services I needed. She kept me "in the loop" at all times, letting me know where we were each step of the way. Nan worked with the buyers throughout this process. She provided them with the support they needed, especially since they were first-time home buyers. I couldn't have asked for a more professional real estate agent or company to assist me. I highly recommend them for anyone looking to sell or purchase a home.

l John Scott is the only business in town. So if you want to rent you have literally no choice and…read morethey abused this Monopoly to a truly shocking extreme. you can expect them to try and charge you for it literally everything and provide absolutely no service on anything. If something is broken on the property when you move in do not expect them to ever voluntarily come in and fix it expects to spend literally months or even years fighting with them to come and fix something as simple as an air conditioner or a dishwasher that hasn't worked since you moved in. Also make sure you take photos of literally everything take notes make them sign papers or acknowledging the current state, in writing, when you move in. Because any time you attempt to have maintenance come out and fix something they will bend over backwards to attempt to blame you for literally anything including an act of God and they will try to charge you for it. Unless you have a lawyer on retainer expect them to just plain lie and charge you for things in complete disregard of any law or legal statute because, the people who are actually handling the phones and the desk have zero training and have just been told to do things and have no idea whether they're breaking the law or not they're just afraid of their supervisor yelling at them for spending too much money on a property. L John Scott is in nightmare. and you should run away run away run away. But if you are looking at this it's because you have literally no other choice. I'm sorry that you have to join us. No one should have to be put through this.

If you are looking to buy or sell in Columbia Gorge or nearby, look no further than Tonya Flory…read morewith Cheri Belander Real Estate. Tonya is beyond amazing. She is professional, responsive, and knows the area like no other. She will give you unbiased and comprehensive advice and support you throughout the process. Tonya helped my husband and I purchase a home in Stevenson. Let me share some examples of Tonya going above and beyond. 1. When I first called Tonya, I caught her on a camping trip. She not only responded to my call but even stopped by a house we were interested in on her way home! 2. She went to see multiple homes on our behalf when my husband and I couldn't get away and walked us through homes on video chat. 3. When we saw the perfect home that was extremely overpriced, Tonya convinced the selling agent to talk to his clients about a more realistic number. We purchased a home thousands of dollars below listing price and inline with comps. 4. We tacked on a land sale which created some additional complexity. Tonya and the loan officer navigated us through the process like pros! All in, we couldn't be more impressed (and trust us, we can be tough customers). You will not go wrong with Tonya as your realtor.

Cheri recently handled the sale of my Mother's property in The Dalles. She deserves credit for an…read moreoutstanding job. She showed up with all the paperwork ready, asked all the right questions, immediately placed the sign in the yard and the box on the door. By nightfall, she had completed an excellent online listing with great photos. By the next night she had showed the property twice and my Mother had accepted an offer. She assisted my Mother in handling any items that needed done during the sale process and the entire transaction was completed in well under 2 months! I don't know how anyone could have done it better.

As a seller who had never seen the property and not familiar with the area, Kaytlin was integral in getting us through all the ins and outs and area requirements (like irrigation district and farm deferral tax status), work being done on the property, and upkeep. Her value was right on, and she worked hard to keep the sale together with a bit of a fixer-upper property (but with a great view!). I would buy property in the area just to have a chance to work with her again! As a past agent, I would work with her in a heartbeat - the vast knowledge, experience, and service is above anything I have seen in over 30 years in the business.
