We live in California and just bought a lovely house in Eugene...- which we literally could not…read morehave done without Kelly. She not only educated us on the market and the area, she literally represented us every step of the way. She visited several houses for us and provided us with detailed videos of her walk-through, plus her educated opinion, which made us feel confident enough to purchase a house without ever going to Eugene ourselves until after the deal was done! Kelly was always quick to respond, kind, professional, and willing to patiently answer every one of my questions. I also appreciated that her descriptions of the houses were always objective, unless we asked her for her opinion, in which case she'd always offer her smart and honest input. We are extremely happy with the house and how easy, smooth and enjoyable the whole process was. If you are looking for a realtor in Eugene, go with Kelly. You'll be in the best hands!

We can say without a doubt that Amy is the best realtor we've worked with, hands down, among those…read morerepresenting us as buyer or seller. And we've worked with some experienced realtors over the years. We initiated a home-buying process from out of state, and Amy made herself readily available to preview a home, take video to share, and/or Facetime with us as she conducted a walk-through of a home we liked. When the time came for our in-person tours, Amy planned the itineraries thoughtfully and with a keen instinct in guiding us toward our preferences. We all know moving can be highly stressful and Amy's calming demeanor and "this will all work out" approach gave us plenty of peace of mind, even when the road seemed a little bumpy. On top of that, she is a well-networked realtor with many local recommendations for work that may be needed: flooring, painting, general contracting, and more. Amy's work ethic inspired confidence during the entire process, from start to finish, and with unrivaled client service skills--you won't find as responsive a realtor! We would hire Amy again without reservation, as either a buying or listing agent.

We found a home we loved and went to the open house, then the next day Kim helped us make an offer on it. It was accepted and she helped us through all of the paperwork. We just closed on our dream home and we cannot wait to start this next chapter! Kim was there for us every step of the way, from the first call I made to her to getting the keys the day of closing. She checked in regularly and gave us updates as soon as they were available. She worked with us to get us a great deal on a great house and made the entire process very easy and painless.

Working with Dustin has been one of the most reassuring and grounded experiences I've had in what…read morecan easily be an overwhelming process--buying a home. From the beginning, Dustin brought a rare combination of technical expertise, patience, and empathy to the table. We toured well over two dozen homes, and through every showing Dustin was honest, transparent, and deeply knowledgeable about construction, local market dynamics, and potential red flags that other agents might have glossed over. He never pressured us toward a quick decision; instead, he made sure we understood the tradeoffs--structural, financial, and emotional--of each property we considered. When we finally found the house, Dustin went above and beyond to help us evaluate it thoroughly. He coordinated inspections, provided thoughtful perspective on structural findings, and even talked us through the emotional rollercoaster of balancing risk and attachment. His communication with all parties--engineers, inspectors, contractors, and the seller's side--was steady, calm, and professional. What stood out most was Dustin's integrity. He wasn't just trying to close a sale; he was making sure we made the right decision for us. Even when complicated situations arose with pricing and concessions, he was transparent and tireless in explaining every angle. In short: Dustin is that rare realtor who blends heart, hustle, and honesty. If you want someone who's not only a skilled negotiator but a true advocate for your long-term well-being as a homeowner, Dustin is the one you want by your side. -- David & Ashley DeRienzo
