We connected with her from all the way in Maryland, and despite being across the country, she facilitated the entire process. Courtnay is incredibly knowledgeable about the Bend market, the home buying process, and most importantly she's very patient and focused on what we needed. She constantly fed us information when we were remote so that we could research and keep up to date. When we were finally in Bend, she coordinated the entire process. Setting up walkthroughs, helping us with an offer, the mortgage process, closing, connecting us with her contacts to help us with various things. Courtnay was incredible and indispensable in every way. Highly highly recommended!

We weren't sure if it was even realistic to find something that checked all the boxes in such a short window, but Courtnay Phillips made it happen! Against all odds, she found an expired listing and made 60 phone calls attempting to connect with the owner. On day 5 of the trip, Courtney helped us put in an offer, and got it accepted. Courtnay's persistence, market knowledge, and refusal to give up until we had exactly what we needed turned what could have been a stressful scramble into a smooth, exciting success. We are so grateful for Courtnay's communication & genuine care for us. Courtnay serves from her heart, offers hard work and is a true professional.

We were incredibly lucky to work with Greg Millikan at the Terry Skjersaa real estate group; we…read moreHIGHLY recommend Greg & the whole team at Skjersaa for anyone looking for a home in the Bend/Redmond area. Greg went above & beyond helping two very fussy folks buy our dream retirement home, long distance & during Covid. He knows the area, communicates consistently, promptly & thoroughly, plus he's very well-connected with other professionals needed during the purchase process. The team at Skjersaa was well-organized, easy to work with & always exceeded the expectations we had for them during this purchase. Personally Greg himself is unfailingly calm with a wry good humor that is a balm during the anxiety of home viewing/purchase. We saw a lot of places in our +3-yr(!!) search & Greg never gave up. Without doubt the best realtor we've ever worked with, anywhere (8 homes purchased over 44 years.) You won't be disappointed working with Greg or the Skjerskaa group: we recommend them to anyone.

This is a highly unethical real estate group. I own lots of properties and I am a landlord and a…read moretenant. I have been a landlord since 1981. I would never use this organization to buy sell or rent list or do business with them in anyway shape or fashion. They are uncommunicative they lack Ethics and don't do business in good faith. I rented a property on December 8 signing a lease that was fully executed and legally ratified and gave the owner a security deposit. Over the past two months we coordinated my move with the owner making sure the utilities were in my name and making arrangements to pick up the key on the move in date which is February 1. My family made arrangements to fly in to help me with the move and I paid a mover as well. There were a great deal of arrangements that were necessary and I forwarded my mail. This last Friday less than a week before my move I received a casual email from the landlord that she would not be allowing me to move in. She gave no excuses or reasons. I found out that she had actually sold the house and never took it off the market during the period of time that she showed me the house, executed the lease, took the security deposit, and coordinate my move. Thinking that she had an obligation to at least tell her buyer, the title company, the broker, and all associated contacts, I contacted the Harcourt Garner group to try to gain some assistance. They would do nothing! They referred me to their attorney who stonewalled me at every juncture. They are unethical and a bad neighborhood and community partners. The bottom line is doing business with them is a risk and I would never take it

Silvia Knight is an amazing real estate agent. She helped us to find the perfect home for our…read morefamily in Bend. She was very much on top of new and upcoming listings, scheduling appointments to see multiple properties in any timeframe that would work for us. She always the took time to not only walk us through the properties but to stay and talk about the pros and cons of the listing prices and locations. We never felt rushed. We never felt like she was not listening to what we wanted--even though I'm not sure we knew exactly what we wanted! Her knowledge of Bend and the surrounding areas is extensive. She was meticulous with the contracts and paperwork. Even after the sale was complete, she offered help with contractors and logistics to make the move into the house so easy for us. We will not hesitate to call on Silvia for future real estate needs. She's the BEST!!

We also had limited funds and she was able to help us stay in budget as well as help us find an amazing lender.

Silvia goes above and beyond and I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a fantastic realtor.

With the market as tight as it is right now, finding "the right spot" was quickly revealed as a daunting task. One call to Tom Tapia at Fratzke and it became a piece of cake.

This is the second time Tom has found us a new location (he helped us find the place from which we are currently vacating).

We worked with Sinda Hanson to sell our Bend, Oregon home in 2022. She was a nightmare to work…read morewith. We several times considered firing her, but we were so stressed and exhausted that we couldn't bring ourselves to have to start over again. Sinda once bragged about being called a "bulldog." No. She was more like a nasty little ankle-biter that you just wished would shut up and go away! I hope she's gotten professional help since, but at that time, she was absolutely incapable of forming and finishing a single complete, coherent sentence. Her constant blathering was headache-inducing. She also utterly refused to ever listen to me. She announced one day that she was going to come over and weed my front flower beds. I told her in no uncertain terms that no, she was not: That I would do it myself. She then showed up the next morning and attacked our front yard. We weren't even aware of her presence until she started up a leaf blower and blew a lot of our bark mulch out into the street. She had also left a lot of weeds and pulled out some of my very expensive perennials instead. Before she brought the photographer to get interior photos, she said she was going to bring a bunch of cut flowers in vases. I told her no, that my husband has severe allergies, and she was not to bring flowers. She and the photographer then showed up the next morning, a full hour before they were scheduled to, and she immediately went to work bringing in cut flowers in vases and arranging them all over my house, ignoring my protests. The idiot later had the audacity to ask me if I wanted to keep her stupid flowers. She would call and immediately launch into one of her barrages of incomplete, incoherent sentences, blabbering incessantly, then ask what we thought. About what?!?!! And during one of her in-person nonsensical blabbering sessions, as my Sinda-induced headache grew worse, she actually turned to me and said, "Oh, I know this is hard for you to understand." Then continued babbling about whatever it was she thought she was conveying. Do I recommend Sinda Hanson? Not in a million years. Annoying doesn't even begin to cover it. To this day, just thinking about her gives me a headache all over again. AWFUL!
