• Emma Erdahl

    Renee is a gem! She gave honest feedback. She pointed out flaws of a property in light of our needs as well as the assets. Plus she is a super negotiator- she knows how to write a contract so that you have a reasonable chance of coming out on top in a bidding war. Her experience shows! Plus she is fun! In short, she is an outstanding agent.
  • jgranato628

    Renee is awesome. She did a fantastic job of walking us through the process and making sure we understood how to maximize the value and then most importantly staged it so that it looked fantastic. When it was all done we had quick offers and she was instrumental in helping my Mom navigate the final negotiations and closing. We couldn't ask for any better support. Highly recommended.
  • dennis imrie

    Renee goes above and beyond the call of duty! She skillfully and strategically staged our home and recommend improvements which garnered us top dollar! She is hands down one of the best realtors around and we highly recommend her.
  • PaulConroy19

    Renee is an extremely knowledgable, passionate, and helpful agent! I don't think we could have scored our dream home so quickly and easily without her. It was so valuable having an expert in our corner tirelessly advocating and negotiating on our behalf. When we expressed interest in a certain part of town where she has less expertise, she took it upon herself to do additional research and arm herself with knowledge to make the most out of our hunt. We as first-time buyers strongly recommend Renee to anyone looking for a new home. Get ready to pop the champagne at closing!
  • Josh Hille

    Renee helped us buy our first home in the Portland area. She was wonderful to work with - super responsive and very knowledgeable about the whole process. If she was ever unavailable for a last minute request (which was extremely rare), her assistant was available. As first-time home buyers, we knew we could rely on Renee to tell it like it is. If a home wasn't a good buy, she would tell us; if it was something worth considering, she would tell us. We never felt pressured into any one home but her guidance was invaluable. Highly recommend!
  • johnnancyrich

    Renée Harper and Michelle Yoon are the most excellent real estate agents we have ever worked with. So nice to have complete confidence that they would handle all aspects of selling our property promptly, efficiently and professionally. They always kept us up to date on the progress of our sale. They were a pleasure to work with. And will definitely list with them again when selling next property.
  • cassieloohoo

    Michelle was fantastic to work with, and we’re very happy with the home we bought! She’s very committed, knowledgeable, and had great advice and support for us as first time home buyers. At one point we started getting discouraged during our home search and were considering just settling, but she did a great job of grounding us and helping us persist until we found a house that was the right fit for us. I would strongly and happily recommend her to anyone who is looking for a realtor!
  • chrtau 22

    We worked with Michelle to find our first home and couldn't be more satisfied with her as our realtor. She was a great listener, knows the market really well, and knows how to negotiate the best price. As a first home buyer, Michelle clearly walked us through each step which made the process run very smoothly. She goes above and beyond to make the experience of buying a home a lot easier than it really is. If we're lucky, we would want Michelle to be our realtor for our next home.
  • user5668475

    We listed our home with Renee because she is the Stonewater expert in Hillsboro. She had a great record of selling homes in our neighborhood, and to us, it wasn't even an option to interview other real estate agents. She staged the home, had it photographed, listed and sold in 3 weeks. We had moved out of state during the sale and Renee handled all the little repairs that were needed after the inspection. You would be crazy not to list your Stonewater home [or any home] with Renee.
  • user45588928

    This is the second home Renée has sold for us. She is great to work with and the team she works with is terrific as well. Selling a home is stressful, and she did her best to make sure it was as easy as possible for us. I highly recommend her and Eleete!
  • Starla Goff

    Renee gave us exceptional attention and service. The luxury market was saturated and Renee put in the time and effort to do every little thing to help our home stand out from the crowd. I can't say enough good things about her work ethic and professionalism.
  • zuser20160114095157004

    Renee was professional and helpful from beginning to end! She was the seller’s agent when I purchased the property and I was so impressed with her then, that I called her when I decided to sell the house. Since I live out of town, it was especially important to me to have an agent willing to handle all the details of readying the property for showings and Renée and her team were always on top of what needed to be done and helpful with their knowledge of companies and individuals who could do the work well and reasonably priced.

    I have been through quite a few real estate transactions and this was the smoothest! I highly recommend Renee and her team!
  • Ericka King

    I can’t say enough good things about Renée. She helped us sell our somewhat unorthodox home during the winter, a time of the year not exactly teeming with buyers. Her pricing strategy was well thought out, carefully considered our goal of selling as quickly as possible, and spot on; we received a full price offer in 3 days. She gave excellent advice regarding fixing up the house to prepare it for sale. She even brought over some of her own things for staging. Because we moved before the house went on the market, she helped take care of it, watered plants etc that were staying with the property. She is an outstanding realtor, the first I have had in my experience that actually earned her commission.
  • danigalbreath

    Renee and her team are amazing! We were fortunate to work with Renee through both the buying and selling process. When it came time to sell, she was an expert in the market, staged our home beautifully, and never let up. We sold our home when the market was slow but that didn’t deter Renee and her team. They aggressively advertised our home, and held open houses weekend after weekend until we found our buyer. I honestly don’t think I could have survived selling our home without Renee. The list of repairs we were asked to do was completely overwhelming. I didn’t know where to start, but I was in good hands. Within ten minutes she contacted four different specialized contractors to arrange for bids. Her references and organization kept us on track and ensured we closed on time.

    As a buyer, you can trust that Renee will fight for you. She has an expert eye, knows when to push back and negotiate, and assists with every step in the process. Houses were selling quickly at the time we were looking - timing was crucial! Renee was always available. The house we purchased had been listed for only a few hours. Renee got us in, helped us submit a competitive bid, and got us the house within 24 hours of it being listed.

    If you are looking to sell or buy a home, I highly recommend Renee.
  • debra10643

    Not only did my husband and I list and sell our family home through Renee; she also helped us find and purchase its replacement as we were in the process of down-sizing. We are complete and happy with the financial results of this project now, and I am so thankful we had Renee on our team. In both the processes of buying and selling it was apparent how much focus and commitment she was giving to us. She is an eager, friendly, straight-forward, upbeat person who gets things done. Renee is also a reliable communicator. She would return our calls and messages almost immediately with an answer or a plan of action.

    Once we decided to sell, she had us on a timeline of what to get done and when. She provided direction and then was at our home to help us get started dealing with 16 years of postponed decluttering. She also walked us through decisions about the updating that was optimal and then brought in subcontractors to give us bids all the while respecting our choices. She worked with us this way throughout the entire process from the listing price, accepting an offer and through the stages until closing, especially inspection negotiations. We also decided to stage the home through the feedback she obtained and then she met with staging companies and helped us in the selection.

    We worked hard, and Renee was there to encourage and inform us along the way. Our house sparkled by listing time, and this made such a difference!
  • VP Anderson

    Renee was recommended by a friend who had had great success with her services. so I chose Renee after our initial meeting. We were relocating to another state and Renee recommended several upgrades to increase the value of the property. She managed all of the renovations and kept us in the loop throughout the process. Thanks to her dedication to the project and process, it was a painless experience - I would not hesitate to use here services again!
  • drbauman59

    We couldn’t have been more satisfied with our experience with Renee Harper. She is a very professional, knowledgeable and efficient realtor. When there was an issue, she handled it immediately with a “can do” attitude. Thanks to Renee, we have our forever home!
  • ddfell

    When we recently decided to put our home on the market, we selected Renee Harper as our agent. What a great decision that was! Renee is an exceptional realtor. She is honest and straightforward, professional, reliable, hardworking and does a superb job organizing everything. The marketing materials she organized and had produced were first class and Renee was communicative and available to help with each step in the process - right through closing. We had a very fast sale and an altogether pleasant experience. Certainly Renee deserves much credit for that. You can’t go wrong with Renee Harper in your corner!
  • RVCortese

    As an out-of-area seller I needed someone who would take a hands-on approach to managing the selling process - from start to finish Renee was actively involved and handled virtually everything that came up during the sales process. In addition, to overseeing updates, Renee professionally staged the property making it show like a model home. A full price cash offer within 3 days - enough said!
  • kgbrink

    Renee was outstanding to work with. She led us through the both the home buying and (later) the home selling process. In both cases, she guided us through every step and her intuition and recommendations were spot on. Highly professional with the perfect amount of personal touch, Renee will always be a respected professional and a dear friend.
  • Tim Molloy

    Renee is a pro! She helped us purchase our first home years ago and then recently helped us sell it to get us into our current home. Renee knows how and when to push the negotiations to get you the most from your sale and purchase.
    The selling process went amazing since Renee helped us stage our home and show off its best features. Proper staging, photos and a detailed listing made the difference. Only one weekend of open houses was needed.
    She helped us navigate through the many offers to find the strongest one. We needed the proceeds to get us into the next home and had to delicately balance the timeline with our buyer's requests while at the same time making our offer strong enough to get the seller to accept our offer. She also worked closely with our lender to ensure everything went smoothly.
    We were able to close both the sale and purchase on the same day and had plenty of time to make the move! This was SO important to us since we have two children and two dogs and didn't want to move into a temporary home or apartment.
    I can't say enough about our wonderful experiences with Renee and her team. We've recommended her to everyone we know and they have the same experience.
  • Tina mccoy70

    Renee has been instrumental in helping us make some very key decisions with our homes. She recently helped us sell my Mom's home, which was difficult in itself. Renee helped make the entire process go smoothly, was able to provide great references for work that needed to be done, and was always professional during the process. Her knowledge of the local area is extensive, and she was always available to answer questions if needed. I know a lot of Realtors, and if you are looking for someone, I highly recommend Renee.
  • koenigwwdb

    We bought our first home, and we had what felt like a MILLION requirements. Michelle worked diligently to find us the home that we needed, in the price range we could afford, and she even took over all of our conversations with our nightmare of a mortgage broker so that we didn’t have to deal with them. We cannot express enough how important Michelle was during our house buying experience. If you are looking for a real estate agent, Michelle will take care of you. Period.
  • zuser20140619201106076

    Highly recommended! Renee helped us sell our home during a stressful relocation to another state. Her experience proved to be so helpful in managing the market/neighborhood we were in. She walked us through the process and ensured we were always on track.

    Renee is incredibly professional, fun, knowledgable, and a great representative for you if you ever need a real estate agent.
  • mwing124

    Renee and her team did a great job getting multiple offers within the first day on the market. The photos of the house were superb, and she really knows her market.
  • Ronda wallace

    My husband and I were impressed with Renee’s professionalism and knowledge of the market. She was steadfast at whatever phase we were in... looking for just right property, making a sensible offer, negotiating with the buyer, problem-solving the various glitches that invariably arise. We enthusiastically recommend her to prospective buyers and sellers!
  • sb4lf

    Renee was most helpful in selling our townhome. She is professional, knowledgeable and very thorough in her approach. I would highly recommend her! If I ever purchase another place in the Portland/ Hillsboro area she will be the first one I contact.
  • ssarah k

    We were first time buyers and scared of the whole peocess. Renee, with her thorough knowledge of local market made the process less stressful for is. Every time we viewed a new property Renee would comment on the quality of construction, finish, appliances, etc. In the end we found the property that was perfect for us and are loving it so far.
  • rachael carnagey

    Renee was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. She is extremely thorough and thoughtful and kept us updated every step of the way. We hired her because of her experience and it paid off in every way. If you are looking to sell your home, we would highly recommend Renee.
  • bob carnagey

    Amazing job! Renee and her team surpassed all my expectations and made the selling and close process very easy. With no hesitation would use Renee again.
  • zuser20151215152026789

    Two things stand out:
    In selling our home Renee did a great job in staging the house for pictures and open houses. She did a great job in bring out the beauty of our home.
    In buying our new home, our initial offer was not accepted. Renee went to bat for us and two days later convinced the sellers that our offer was the best of four offers.
  • user03270351

    Our experience using Renee as our listing realtor was fantastic! She is enthusiastic, honest and shows the utmost integrity! Due to her help and wonderful marketing abilitiy she was able to guide us through a multiple offer situation seamlessly.
    Renee is a great communicator and follows through in what she says. We trusted our gut instincts in our choice to hire her and are very glad we did! We highly recommend her and would definitely hire her again!
  • mahshahanchi

    Mahsha:
    Being first time home buyers, we were worried at first. Luckily we stumbled upon Renee and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly to work with. Renee always kept us informed and used her expertise to give us the advices. She went above and beyond. After the birth of our daughter she took over to make sure we will get out dream home while we are busy learning to be a parent.
    We both are very happy with our first home and couldn't have been more pleased. I definitely recommend her to anyone and would not hestiate to ask for her help again for ourselves.
    Thank you Renee!
  • wings1983777

    Very disappointing experience with Ms. Renee Harper. I was waiting on my house documents so I could list my home for sale next week. Ms. Harper emails me around 9am letting me know that the documents would be ready and sent for my signature before noon. That did not happen... 5:20pm roles around and still no documents and more importantly no communication as to why, so I inquire yet again. Ms. Harper offers apology and a multitude of excuses in response. A short while after, the documents are sent to me along with an explanation of additional information needed. I had some inquiries of what would be required and asked why it was my responsibility as the home owner. Apparently, I misunderstood the intent of Ms. Harper's communication and designation of what was my responsibility. In response, I am going to share the actual verbiage of her email to me:

    "Mr. Jones,

    Did you even read through the documentation I sent? I am not suggesting you get the HOA document provided by the HOA. I am suggesting you fill out the SELLERS PROPERTY DISCLOSURES. And in fact, I'm suggesting you find another realtor. I am not going to deal with your attitude.

    Best,

    Ms. Harper"

    Shocking to say the least... We had set up a photo shoot that was two business days away and were set to list the house in four business days. All of a sudden, some standard questions became a resignation of services provided by Ms. Harper...? Needless to say, I am now left with absolutely nothing and have to start over. This is a truly sad story, but it just goes to show that it does happen. Be careful who you choose as your realtor and make sure to do your homework! I wish I would have done mine...
  • dsvandec

    Renee is the absolute BEST!!!!!!!I can't imagine having my husband and I as clients. We were so undecided when we started the process of looking into selling our house and moving. Renee stuck with us and found us exactly what we wanted. She held 2 open houses the first weekend our house went on the market and by day 3 we had multiple offers!!!
    Renee was always available to take us to tour new homes. She responded immediately to emails and texts and is extremely knowledgeable. She was a huge support system for our family knowing that this was an exciting time for us but also emotional. I cant imagine going through this process without Renee.
    I would highly recommend Renee hands down!!!!!! She is the BEST!!!
  • ap ashleypowell

    Renee is a fantastic realtor! We've worked with her through multiple moves and she's always been caring, patient, knowledgeable and really wants to help people find what's best for them. Even in the crazy Portland market, she was able to help us find a home. Thanks Renee!
  • user26293094

    Renee did an awesome job helping us through a fairly long closing. there were obstacles along the way but she managed to make it seamless! Cant wait to find another home with her!
  • Diggernurse

    Renee is awesome to work with. We had several technical problems which she solved for us. Not only is she competent, but understood our various needs during this sale.

    My husband & I would greatly recommend Renee for any real estate sales or purchase.
  • kevindaledavis

    We were very lucky to get Renee as an agent. We were totally unprepared when we called. She arrived in our home and explained our options. After deciding that we would refresh the house, she helped find us the tradespeople. She was super willing to answer questions, help make us make decisions, and keep our spirits up. After 2 months of hard work, she helped the stagers finalize the house and had the open house. She presented us the offers and helped us select the best one. Another 2 months and the house is completely sold.
    Every step was more enjoyable due to Renée's fantastic attitude and willing spirit.
    I would highly recommend Renée Harper as an agent to my closest friends and to you,
  • user1569059

    It did not take us long to realize that we have found the best realtor. This was our first home-buying experience. Renee has walked us all the steps and over 50 homes until we found our dream home.

    As we learned about homes, we have changed our mind on a lot of things including neighborhood. Renee has always, always kept our interest first. Even when we were tempted make an offer on a less ideal home, she was there to ask us the right probing questions, which encouraged us to wait more. As a result, we found our dream home for the price we can comfortably afford. My wife and I could have not dreamed for a better home or a better realtor. Thank you Renee!! You have made our home buying experience incredibly smooth.

    If this is your first time (or 5th time) buying home, you will enjoy working with Renee. She is extremely knowledgable, detailed oriented and a lot of fun.
  • betsyjulian

    Renee did an amazing job helping us sell our home. I've sold four homes previously and thought I knew what good service was, but Renee set a new standard.

    She did an extremely thorough job determining comps for our home and walked us through all of the details of the other homes on the market before helping us decide on an asking price. She then helped us stage the home so that it showed to its best advantage. the photos were stunning. Renee held open houses on both Saturday and Sunday to maximize our exposure. As a result, we got a phenomenal number of offers that first weekend and sold our home for well above the price we asked. Renee's effort did not stop at that point. She also assisted us through the inspection process, finding a specialized contractor to do some repairs, and finally through the close of escrow.

    I can guarantee you will not be disappointed if you select Renee as your realtor.
  • teamkamakazi

    Renee Harper is extremely professional and knowledgeable about every aspect needed in selling a house. She has contacts that she is happy to share for everything you need. She walks you through and explains the steps you need to know. She is a star and goes the extra mile and helps pack items and gives advice on what to clear out of the house to make it more presentable. She also helped us clean when we were struggling to get out in time.

    I would recommend her to any one wanting to sell there house.
  • tsurutuenge

    It was an amazing experience. After I emptied the house, I handed her a key. Renee and her partner got into actions. Within a week, the floor refinished, entire house in and out cleaned, light bulbs changed, windows shining and the house decorated. I did not do a thing. Team Renee did everything. Her attention to details was amazing and the house was absolutely gleaming. Then, they held open houses and sold the house at high price in no time at all. Within 1 month, we closed the sale. I was impressed. It was totally a stress free experience. Renee kept me informed at all times through e-mails, texts and phones. Not only her attention to details, but her speed of actions and decisiveness were very impressive. She also gave me a sound advice when needed. I highly recommend her to everybody. Thank you, Renee.
  • Ryan A

    Renee has been our realtor for over 8 years , through both selling and purchases and we couldn't recommend her more highly. She is very knowledgeable about real estate trends, the local market, negotiating and treats everyone with the utmost respect. She works tirelessly to please her customers and is quick to respond to inquiries.
  • roboneness

    Renee was quite professional and knowledgeable with us when we listed our house of 25 years. Even though the housing market was out of control at the time, Renee walked us through step by step what improvements we needed to make before listing. Consequently our home sold above asking price very quickly and we were thrilled! We highly recommend this wonderful realtor to sell your home in the future.
  • Thomas Dooher

    Her knowledge of real estate in Hillsboro, and her familiarity with pricing put me very much at ease. Rene was realistic managing my expectations and was extremely responsive to my timeline. I'm from out of town and needed to minimize my travel to the NW. Rene handled the details so that I was not bothered by nagging details, including the removal of some household items I could not dispose of while cleaning up the property.
  • mandcjackson

    Renee Harper is an outstanding realtor. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling. Our transaction was great. We were out of town for the whole process and she took care of everything for us. I would give her 10 stars. Can't thank her enough.
  • ap ashleypowell

    Renee has been a fantastic realtor. This is our second experience with her and we can't imagine working with anyone else. She's very knowledgeable and always takes the time to help us with any inquiry we have. She always looks our for her clients' best interest and makes sure they are taken care of. Thank you Renee for making the house selling process run smoothly!
  • ameya only

    We were first time buyers and we found Renee through a friend's referral. Renee was extremely professional, punctual, thorough and resourceful throughout. Our was 1 of 8 offers on the house we finally bought and Renee's expert writing of and the timing of our offer we believe was key to us getting the house. We would surely recommend Renee.
  • marymohr

    Simply said, Renee knows her stuff. She is professional, honest and very knowledgeable about the market. My townhouse was sold the first day. What more do I need to say. Thanks for the great service!
  • user45588928

    I would highly recommend Renée and her team. The service they provided was exceptional and our house sold in less than a week! Selling a home is a stressful process but Renée was very reassuring. My husband had a minor health issue right before closing and she was right there willing to help so we could stay on schedule. When we are ready to buy another home I will be calling her again!
  • tich415

    Renee helped us buy the house of our dreams! We'd been looking for over a year but hadn't associated with a realtor yet because we hadn't found the right one. The listing we found was Renee's. She met us at our future home the next day, we made an offer and she drove out to the seller's house at 9pm that same night (during the already crazy month of December) to make the deal happen. And she did! I didn't rate her on negotiation skills because we loved the house and didn't want to lose it so we made a full price offer.
  • zuser20140502130819575

    Renee is wonderful to work with! She is extremely knowledgeable and hard working. Very flexible and always looking out for your best interest. Easy going and a joy to be around!
  • user4013560

    My husband and I were able to find our perfect first home all because of Renee. Her patience and commitment was outstanding! Trying to find a home with a new born baby can be difficult but she was always there with a smile on her face and never hesitated to answer any questions we might have. Renee was extremely supportive through out our home buying experience and we are so grateful for all that she had done for us! There is no doubt that we will be using her again when we are ready to sell/buy another home! Thanks Renee, we love you!!
  • avi41

    Renee Harper is, by far, the best real estate professional I have every worked with. I have purchased three homes in my life and can wholeheartedly say that the best of the three experiences was with Renee. She is an expert in her field and perfectly balances extreme professionalism with good old fashioned likability. If you are looking to buy or sell a home in the Portland area, I could not recommend Renee more highly.
  • user4728573

    Renee went above and beyond in helping me as a first time home buyer. She always went the extra mile in assisting me with understanding the buying process. She was always very responsive and helpful to my questions and properties I expressed interested in. Renee was very detailed oriented when helping me with my search!
  • kodythrelfall

    Renee was excellent to work with. We are first time home buyers and were really pretty clueless. Renee walked us through each step along the way and was always good at helping us to understand the situation. This gave us a lot of peace of mind while doing something that can be very scary and stressfull, especially for the first time. In addition to helping us understand each step in the process, Renee also showed great patience. For first time home buyers we were very particular in what we wanted and probably pretty demanding and Renee never showed frustration with us but always kept working to help us find exactly what we wanted. She was always responsive, personable and showed genuine concern. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
  • sdhg

    We had been unsuccessfully trying to sell our house for a year before a friend recommended Renee Harper. I will forever be in this friend's debt for suggesting her. After trying two other Realtors and even attempting to sell the house on our own, Renee finally came to our rescue and sold our house in a couple of days.
    Renee was a professional, hands on, force of nature. After assessing our home she gave us honest feedback on why our home was not selling. She quickly pulled together a plan of action and went to work. At her own expense, Renee brought in her stager and photographer. They completely changed the look of the house to fit potential buyers. After an offer was made, Renee continued working hard balancing negotiations with the buyer, while finding us the perfect house to fit our needs. All Realtor are not the same. Renee is a gifted communicator with superior people skills. She knows the area and the business.
    I do not believe we would have sold our house if it were not for Renee Harper. I have, and will continue recommended Renee to anyone who is looking to sell or buy a home. I will never move again with out her.
  • user63212502

    Renee is the best Realtor with responsible, timely and proactive taking care of us but no push. She has very great experience on local information, process, relevant service providers, and, the most important, negotiation skills to help us.
    With her advice, we had the very reasonable and competitive offer. During the mortgage process, we could not make it without her help. And the closing was very smooth with her help as well.
    We would definitely refer her to my friends.
  • ardymorales04

    You have a super star here. She showed a lot of patience as we were looking in Oregon for over a year before we closed our home on August 28, 2014. She is without a doubt the most professional realtor we have worked with to date. We would never hesitate to recommend her to family and friends.
    Sincerely,
    Arthur and Judy Morales
  • kgbrink

    We couldn't have asked for more from Renee. She brought things up that we never would have considered, or reached out to us about details of the home-buying process before we would even ask the question. She was very pleasant to work with, and did a great job of understanding what our needs and wants were, as well as providing insight into other considerations that made sense for our situation.

    When it came time to purchase the house, she was appropriately aggressive on our behalf and negotiated very effectively. We would recommend Renee to anybody.
  • recenthomeowner

    Renee was referred to us by some friends who had an excellent experience. We have been very impressed with Renee in our interactions with her.

    Renee has always been highly professional in her dealings with us - From our first meeting where she was very prepared to help us understand the market and the areas we were interested in, right through the time when we closed.

    Renee is extremely straightforward and honest. There have been occasions where Renee has pointed out the deficiencies / shortcomings of a home that we were favoring. She never pushed us to make a decision on any home she showed us.

    Renee is quite knowledgeable about the area that we were interested in. She was able to give us a sense for the different neighborhoods and the positives and drawbacks of each neighborhood. In addition, as first time home buyers, we were appreciative of Renee's efforts to teach us the things to watch for - like helping us distinguish between features that truly add value to a house vs. updates that are merely cosmetic.

    Finally, Renee was very prompt in responding to all our requests. She is very personable and fun to work with.
  • WenboHou

    She is very patient. It took me half a year to finally find a home. She showed me more than 50 houses. She never pushed me to make any decisions. She always reminded me to take a second thought and don't make any rush decisions. She stayed with me to go through everything, inspection, new home orientation and etc. This is very helpful for the first time buyer, like me.
  • Nicole Peterson

    We had a wonderful experience with Renee and the recent purchase of our new home in the Bethany area. Renee was referred to us by a close friend and we could not have asked for a better referral. Renee took the time to house hunt with us and look at many different areas and options that we were considering. She got to know us and what we were looking for in our home purchase to satisfy all the requirements that were unique to our situation. Renee is very knowledgeable about the local area and helped to point us in the right direction, her communication along the way was excellent. When the perfect home finally came on the market we were ready to make an offer that day and ended up with a home in a great area that fits all of our needs. Renee was there for us through the entire process from the initial meeting and house hunting to the offer, inspection, and document signing, answering all of our questions along the way. We will definitely recommend Renee as a Realtor to our friends and family, Thank you Renee!

    Renee was my agent in both purchasing and selling a home. Renee has excellent people skills, listening intently, never becoming defensive, sincerely adding her knowledge and expertise to every transaction. She knew the importance of bringing in expertise about my neighborhood, when setting a sales price. She offered excellent advice about staging the home for sale, and she was never negative when I had a different idea or opinion. It is to her credit that she was able to offer reasons why a particular home could present problems to me, when necessary. She facilitated two seamless transactions. I would not hesitate to call on Renee for future sales. I am happy to heartily recommend Renee Harper.

    My husband and I are new to oregon and were unsure of the exact location we wanted to settle. Renee was so patient with us and suggested new areas for us to try when we crossed others off our list. She responded quickly to get us in to see places as soon as possible, and even went the extra mile to get us in to see some homes that weren't actively on the market she thought we would like. She was with us every step of the way through negotiations, and kept us informed up to the minute about what was going on behind the scenes. We would recommend Renee to anyone looking to purchase a home in the portland area, and would not look elsewhere should we ever need the service of a realtor in the future.

    Renee Harper knows her stuff! Not only is she is a lovely person to work with, she knows the business inside and out. I was selling my home after 25 years. I was a bit daunted by where to start and what was important. She assessed and identified the key "to do's" to maximize sales potential. The house showed beautifully and we got the full price offer. I was not expecting to be able to hit that mark, but was thrilled that we did. Renee has my unwavering and wholehearted recommendation.

    Renee Harper provided outstanding support as we purchased our home in Portland. She was extremely knowledgeable of the market, and shared valuable insights about each home as we reviewed and toured each property.

    As we worked through the inspection and price negotiation process, Renee's expertise and experience saved the day for us. She worked through a complex list of repair requests we had prior to purchasing our home. Not only did Renee work tirelessly to get each of our requests addressed, she stood behind her work and took the initiative to fix several items that were missed on her own. She was under no obligation to do this. She addressed these issues because of her strong sense of personal responsibility and an unwavering focus on getting the job done right!

    Said more simply, Renee is an outstanding resource for listing or selling a home, and we recommend her to anyone who seeks great service and support in their next real estate transaction.

    Renee Harper is one of the best real estate agents that I have ever worked with. She was always prompt in arrivals, transmittals and phone calls. We went on a three week vacation out of the country and she handled everything from needed repairs to follow up with the handy man. We were able to close on the house in an minimal amount of time and energy. Even with being overseas she continued to keep us up to date with everything that was happening, including signing the contract. The only thing we had to do when we got home was pack our belongings and move to our new location. She is truly an amazing real estate agent. I would recommend her to anyone.

    Renee is amazing! We put our house on the market over 3 months after our neighbors had put theirs on the market. The neighbors had already reduced the price on their house. We had looked through their house and it was lovely - had many features better than ours. Our house was nice but had an unusual floor plan and we knew it would take just the right family to buy.

    Once I contacted Renee - things moved quickly. She didn't want to put our house on the market until we had some work done on it, like getting the deck stained, the carpets cleaned, and some touch up painting. She also hired a person to come and 'stage' the house. Renee paid for the first hour of this service and I paid an additional one. She is a bit of a stickler on having the house ready to show - but she knows her business and 100 percent right.

    Once the house was ready, she had an open house for other realtors - and this is where her experience and years of working in the industry pay off. She has many connections and is able to get other realtors in the house with their clients. In addition, she has a photographer come out and then creates a fantastic web page - I know that after looking at it I wanted to buy my house! :-)

    Our house had offers within 5 days and we sold at a full price offer (which we even thought was a bit high considering the market) at 7 days. If there were any bumps in the road - we didn't feel them as Renee works out issues with the other realtor and manages to keep this process as stress free as possible.

    I would like to note that we have used Renee in the past with the same amazing results - and I'm not exaggerating. When my husband and I met 9 years ago then decided to marry and buy a new house together, Renee sold both our houses for us. Mine sold in 3 days and my husbands in 2 weeks - both full price offers. The market was much stronger back then so we didn't expect the same thing to happen this go around - but it did. I could chalk it up to crazy luck - but I know better.

    I've read some of the other excellent reviews written about Renee and everything in them is true - in addition to being an amazing Real Estate Agent, she is also a lovely person and someone I consider a friend.

    Renee is the only person I recommend to people coming or going in this area.

    Renee has sold two of our homes and we purchased one with her help.
    She handled each transaction in a timely and efficient way.
    Her staging ability enhanced the appearance of both homes.
  • user22075012

    Renee did a great job marketing my condo. She checked the nearby properties for pricing and then WE agreed on an opening price. She staged my condo one day when I was a t work. When I came home it was magnificient. She held an open house --it was a success. Lots of traffic. From our intial meeting to closing Renee was there to walk me through the process. I would recommend her to anyone who is in the market to buy or sell a home.
  • user7038350

    Renee is an amazing realtor and I highly recommend her if you're in the market to sell or purchase a home. To say Renee is an amazing person and a hard worker is an understatement!! Within days of "officially" making her our realtor, she had a home stager and a photographer lined up to make our house look even more amazing. Each morning my wife I would have an update from her (email or phone call) with the latest activity on our house. Renee knowledge & negotiation skills are up there with the best of them and that's why she is considered one of Portlands top realtors! Thank you for selling our house so fast, Renee!
  • user1599277

    Renee was very professional. She provided us with such an easy selling experience. As we were relocating she took over any issues that came up with house and made sure the house was always in excellent condition to be shown to buyers. Renee made so many helpful suggestions to help us with a quick sale and our house sold in one week.
    I would and have recommended Renee. I can't imagine ever finding another agent that could make this experience so easy.
  • user058416

    Renee Harper has helped my husband and myself with both the purchase of our new home and the sale of our previous residence. Renee comes highly recommended! She has excellent business savvy, is objective, trustworthy, thoughtful, and an excellent proponent of her clients. She has her customers’ best interests at heart, and is a very hard worker. Renee is highly personable and professional, and we are excited for the opportunity to work with her again in the future.
  • nickandkristen

    We first used Renee to buy and sell our houses in 2012 and because of her excellent work we did not hesitate to call her again this past summer in 2014. We were motivated to sell and she helped make the process quick and painless.

    Renee again brought a high level of professionalism and expertise. We really appreciate her attention to detail, good communication skills, and knowledge of our specific market area. We needed to get our home on the market quickly and Renee met the challenge. She had it on the market in a week from the time we called her to listing including staging, photos, and all of the other behind the scenes work she had to coordinate with a tight timeline.

    We again were impressed with her ability to draw in buyers. She held two open houses the opening weekend and had 4 offers for us to review after just 3 days on the market. The process again went smoothly and we closed without a glitch.

    Renee truly comes along side her clients and is a partner to meet whatever need you may have. She's not afraid to get her hands dirty and do anything needed to get your house ready and to make the sale happen. I would again recommend her and would call her again in an instant for future real estate needs.
  • Manas Ojha

    Renee has been outstanding. She has good knowledge. From the first day, she understood exactly what we were looking for. She is very quick in replying to emails, is willing to visit you anytime and any day and is very quick in getting the details of a new house in the market. We were first time home buyers and she has been very patient in answering all our questions, was with us through the whole home buying process and even provided us all the information and contacts that might be later helpful for house services and maintenance. She also carefully points out minute details about a house. I would highly recommend her.
  • user8864289

    Renee came highly recommended by a co-worker that couldn't say enough about how great she was - and it was all true. Renee is AMAZING. This was my first time purchasing a home, so naturally I was nervous, emotional, indecisive, had millionaire dreams and a non-millionaire budget. I dragged Renee all over the Portland metro area for months as I hummed and hawed over refrigerator size and counter space, all the while she was EVER so patient and understanding. Addressing all of my many questions/ concerns with professionalism and sincerity. Even though my budget was smaller than her average client, I never felt like I was a inferior or less valuable. I always felt that my happiness was her priority. When I finally found the perfect place - Renee sprang into action! Her swift responsiveness and speed was what landed me my home – hand delivering my offer to the selling agent and beating out several other offers that came in that same day. I now tell everyone I know (and some that I don’t) about my first home buying experience and it wouldn’t have been the same without Renee. She is now a friend and I will buy all of my future homes from her.
  • user458969

    When I got Renee's contact information from my friend - she sent it over with this title "BEST REALTOR EVER" and Renee absolutely lived up to her title. I've worked with other realtors in the past and they would treat me like a client but Renee treated my husband and I like we were friends and looked out for us like we were part of her family. We wouldn't have EVER found our dream home without Renee...she went above and beyond and found us a house that wasn't even listed on RMLS. Her throroughness, professionalism and work ethic is unmatched. She was easy to work with and more importantly honest with us throughout the entire process. My only complaint is that I can't afford to buy anymore homes (right now at least) so that I can't keep working with her. I reccomend her to everyone that I know - even if they aren't in the market for a home - because someday they will and I don't want to keep Renee to myself!
  • matthiasschabel

    I contacted Renee based on her positive reviews on Zillow. We were searching for a property in a fairly specific area of town and wanted an agent with a particular focus in that area. When I asked Renee which parts of town she specialized in, she was very forthright, unlike many agents who try to claim that they are knowledgeable about the entire metro area. While our search area and her focus didn't overlap, Renee very promptly found a list of agents who had recently bought and/or sold homes in our preferred neighborhood. Based on her professionalism and willingness to help a non-client, I believe she would be an outstanding agent.
  • rm.email

    In my experience over the years selling a home can be a difficult and trying experience, especially in a down market. My recent experience with Renee was just the opposite. I found her to be not only a consummate real estate professional in every aspect, but a true delight to work with. She is particularly skilled and enthusiastic about marketing, which in a difficult housing market should make her the top agent choice for anyone selling a residence these days. She also has a rare combination of take charge management skill and a personality that makes it all flow. She sold my home in record time, and going forward I will be recommending her to anyone I know wanting to sell a home.
  • henry2k

    Renee went well above and beyond our expectation! She sold our home within a week in the price we desired in this strong buyers market!! First of all, she was very professional and knowledgeable regarding the local real-estate market, selling process. She was incredibly intelligent and provided invaluable ideas and suggestion on tidying up our home and the house staging. She worked hard to market our house in many ways and ensure the selling process going smoothly. Moreover, she was extremely patient. She was respectful and honest. She listened and took care of our many special requests. Most importantly, she was an excellent negotiator. She responded to buyers inquiries intelligently and diligently. She was in constant communication with us. She negotiated the best price in multiple-offers situation and worked through challenges with buyers agents during the process. We will definitely use Renee again for our future needs and recommend her to anyone without any reserve.
  • scott.b.christie

    Renee is a down-to-earth negotiator, well-versed in a variety of real estate transactions and willing to listen to the client.

    Whenever I am ready to either purchase or sell a property, she is first and foremost on my list and look for every opportunity to recommend her to my friends and colleagues.
  • Davidtoo

    Renee Harper has proven to be extremely helpful in the purchase and sale of our home. When moving into the area she provided tremendous insight and data to profile the best neighborhoods. Once we targeted one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the Portland area, Renee used a very creative approach to finding us a home. She actually wrote a letter indicating that "I have a buyer for your home if you'd like to sell" and sent it to every home owner in the neighborhood. This allowed us to uncover a seller that otherwise was not on the market. We were thrilled with the results.
    When it came time to sell our home Renee again provided tremendous support. She provided insight on value and pricing, excellent marketing, and even used some of her own household furnishings to more effecitvely stage our home for showings. Our house was on the market about 18 hours when we received an offer. But it didn't stop there. We continued to show the home due to previously scheduled appointments. And even though we already had a very serious offer, we were fortunate to also receive a backup offer. This left us in a strong negotiating position and with a feeling of security.
    We couldn't be happier with the performance of Renee Harper. She is a very creative realtor to have your team for both finding and selling a home.
  • azures

    I purchased a home and Renee represented me as the buyer's agent. She made many great suggestions during the negotiation stage. Our requests for condition of purchase were all accepted -- and this was a short sale as well!
  • ave2pos

    From the moment we first met Renee at an open house we attended we knew we had met the agent we wanted to work with to buy our first home in the Portland area. In our particular case, we found a new home on our own shortly after meeting Renee. Rather than go though the buying process with the on-site agent we brought in Renee to make sure we were getting a straight 3rd party assessment free of the sellers hype. She is really on your side throughout the whole process of making your offer, negotiating, closing. Very, very nice person who does what she says she is going to do by when she said she will do it. She seems to be a down to earth, patient, easy going person. A real pleasure to have at your side during one of the biggest decisions of your life. Recommended a fabulous mortgage broker too. We'd use her again, but we LOVE our new house too much.
  • sgtillett

    Renee went well above the call of duty helping us sell and buy our home. She was very professional. We had many special issues come up with the home we were selling as well as the home we were buying and she was very knowledgeable as she help us negotiate and work through our unique set of challenges. She was very patient and worked hard for us to make sure all of our expectations were met. I have recomended her to several of my friends and she has given them the same level of extraordinary care.
  • milesmom219

    We could not have asked for better representation for getting our family into our dream home. Her level of expertise, knowledge and professionalism is why we wanted to work with Renee for the second time. Buying homes can be a stressful process, and what we love most about Renee is not only how hard she worked for us, but her warmth and heartfelt friendliness during those moments when we got discouraged. She was available literally 24/7 and we are convinced that Renee is the only reason that we are sitting happily in the house of our dreams right now. Simply put, she's the best.
  • bchilt

    Wy wife and I were first time homebuyers, therefore, new to the process. We went through a first time homebuyers workshop and during the class, it was recommended to interview agents. We put together a list and narrowed it down to three in which Renee was one of three. She was prepared, professional, and answered all of our questions thoroughly. What separated Renee from the other two was that she spoke to both my wife and I, not just to me or just to my wife. She really focused on the person that was asking the question and answered to that person. She established quickly that she was going to respect both of us equally.

    During the home search, she was in constant communication either by email or by phone. She was also readily available to pick us up and take us to see properties. My wife and I worked late night hours looking for a home. We would shoot off an email at midnight and we would often get a response that same night.

    During our research, my wife and I landed on a preferred home inspector and mortgage lendor. Renee was very open to working with new people. The result was we had a created a super home buying team that was at the top of its game. The communication and team work between realtor, mortgage officer, and home inspector was incredible and I strongly believe Renee's years of experience, terrific personality and professionalism helped to drive this result.

    As a first time buyer, it is easy to fall into the trap of making an emotional decision. This is where Renee can really help. She provides guidance, she does not make the decision for you. She does a terrific job of helping to gather the facts and then leaves it to the buyer to make the choice.

    For us and our first home, Renee was invaluable. My wife and I highly recommed Renee and will utilize her services again for our next purchase.
  • ceddy52

    Renee was extremely helpful throughout the entire process of selling and buying our home. She brought incredible professionalism and expertise of the entire process and in finding our new home. We are now looking to sell our home again and buy a new home and we are going to use her services again!
  • Sam R

    I recently worked with Renee Harper to purchase my first home, and it was an exceptionally positive experience, thanks to Renee. As an inexperienced home buyer with a very limited budget, I assumed going into the process that I wouldn’t really warrant much of an agent’s time. Wow - did Renee ever prove me wrong! She gave me the star treatment, and made me feel like a million-dollar client.

    I so appreciate Renee’s complete dedication to finding me the right home. Being a first-time buyer, it was wonderful to be able to draw on her thorough knowledge of the market, the various neighborhoods, and the ins and outs of the process. She is savvy and sharp, and remembered exactly the type of property I wanted, which saved so much time. She has excellent communication skills and was immediately available whenever I had questions or concerns. She checked in on me regularly and sent frequent updates and new listings that might be of interest.

    Another thing I really appreciated about Renee is her unwavering positive attitude. She is candid, conscientious, and caring, and on top of all that, a really fun and upbeat person to spend time with. I would recommend Renee Harper with complete confidence to anyone looking for an absolutely outstanding realtor who will go the extra mile for them.
  • mmcgriff

    Renee accomplished the impossible for us - she sold our older home in a market saturated with new homes for comparables. She took the time to ensure that the process went smoothly at every step. We found her to be professional, efficient, personable and reliable. We would hire her again without hesitation.
