He meticulously gave feedback about the house we toured. He is amazing realtor that I would give him 2 thumbs up for the good job done!"

Fe Navarro and Mar Santos

"My husband and I met Joel "by accident" via Zillow on a house scouting trip. Within minutes of meeting, it was like being with an old friend. Joel is warm, friendly, knowledgable and he really listens to his clients. Joel stayed in touch with us for months as we got our house in Washington ready for sale, helped us understand how the market in Portland was moving, and sent us weekly house updates so we could stay on top of our search. Once we were in Portland, Joel was ready with excellent properties to show. He is outstanding at helping you see the best that a home has to offer and things that might be problematic. When we were ready to make an offer, his negotiation skills were beyond perfect - we have the house and neighborhood we dreamed of! In my opinion, Joel went above and beyond throughout our entire process and I could not recommend him more highly - he is gem!"
