My Happy Clients

Moving from Hawai?i is a big deal, especially when you're relocating your family and trying to find the right place to call home. Our family moved from Hawai?i to Spain in August 2019, then to Oregon in June 2020, and most recently purchased our home in August 2026. So we've been through a few moves, and I can tell you that having the right realtor makes all the difference. Taira Harper was awesome to work with. She has her own Hawai?i connection, and I think local families looking to make the move to Oregon would appreciate working with someone like her. She is responsive, hardworking, and really tries her best to make the deal happen. But what I appreciate most is that she isn't pushy. She wants you to understand what you're getting into, know the pros and cons, and make an informed decision for yourself and your family. Our purchase of the property on SW Oakwood was not an easy negotiation with the seller. There were some challenges along the way, but Taira stayed engaged and worked hard to help us navigate the process. At the end of the day, I walked away informed and with what I felt was a fair deal. That's important to me. A good realtor shouldn't just be trying to close a transaction; they should be looking out for their client and making sure the client understands what they're buying. For our local families in Hawai?i thinking about relocating to Oregon, I would definitely give Taira a call. Moving to a new place comes with plenty things to figure out already, and you want somebody who will answer your questions, be straight with you, and work hard on your behalf without making you feel pressured. Mahalo, Taira, for all your hard work and for helping us through a challenging negotiation. We appreciate you! If you're from Hawai?i and looking to make Oregon your new home, Taira is somebody worth having in your corner. Highly recommend!

Taira went above and beyond to help us buy our dream home and sell our starter house. Her expertise regarding school districts & locations helped us quickly narrow down our search. She was so in tune with our wants and needs that she knew immediately upon viewing our future home that it was the one for us. When it was time to sell our old home, Taira ensured our home was ready to go on the market with recommendations for repairs and staging. We benefited greatly from her contacts including a contractor, stager, handyman, and cleaners. Once it was on the market, Taira was such a strong advocate. She made sure we even had a signed back-up offer, which was a lifesaver when the original buyer’s finances fell through. We can not begin to express our gratitude for all of Taira’s hard work and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

Great experience in our home search. Taira was extremely helpful and patient with us as we searched for just the right property. Responds quickly to questions and always came to showings with all of the information we would have wanted and even the information we didn’t think to ask for. Highly recommend to anyone looking for the right home, or ready to sell!

Taira was my new home consultant before she took the full-time realtor plunge, and I had a wonderful experience working with her! She was very accessible and attentive as she helped me navigate the new-construction home buying process. She immediately understood what I was after, and I knew she was in my corner. Any buyer/seller would be lucky to work with Taira.

Taira Harper is an amazing, thorough, trustworthy, professional agent. She sold our home in 2 days, led us through the inspection process, and even represented us on the purchase of our new home. It was a complicated and stressful experience, but Taira kept us informed with positive outcomes all around. I highly recommend her!!
