She took time to listen…
Patti was amazing! She was the second Realtor that I had worked with when trying to find my first house. She took time to listen to what it was I wanted and the budget I wanted to stay within. She found multiple listings with what I wanted and it turned out the first house we looked at was the one I wanted to buy. She had extensive knowledge and walked me through what could be a stressful process but because of her it was a lot of fun. She is the one I will be buying a second home with when I am ready and she is the name I give out to my friends, you cannot go wrong with Patti.
We know Patti personally, but that didn’t change the professional attitude she had about our home buying process. As first time home buyers, there was a lot we didn’t know. Especially in such a fast paced market, we appreciated how responsive and available Patti was. We ended up finding something we wanted really quickly, but because Patti had spent so much time explaining the process and guiding us we had the confidence to move fast and get the house we wanted. Very pleasant process and I would recommend her to anyone.
As we closed on our home on this past week, Patti asked me to review her for her upcoming webpage. As I talked with Jeremy this morning to ask him how many transactions we have done with Patti, I was shocked to come up with 18 and counting. We have worked with Patti since 2006, two personal residences and the remaining for our business. I can not express what a true professional she is, in a world where everyone believes they can be a successful real estate agent (just like everyone believes they can just become a real estate investor) we appreciate her knowledge, approach to dealing with “those agents” and really being professional and talking Jeremy off many ledges when it comes to his houses. smile emoticon If anyone in the Portland area needs a real estate agent, I would love to recommend Patti.
My husband and I are first time home buyers and Patti came highly recommended to us. We literally found our dream house and Patti didn’t waste a second writing up our offer, and it was accepted the next day! She does her research, is an expert in her field, is organized in every way, and her response time was exceptional. She even negotiated things for us that we didn’t know we wanted/needed! Although we are new to home buying, we totally trusted her with the entire process and she certainly did not let us down. We already know we will be calling her in a few years when we are ready to sell and buy again!
Patti was our buying agent while purchasing a few months back. We could not be more pleased with the entire experience! Her wealth of knowledge and experience in real estate allowed her to guide us through the process with ease and comfort. Being new to the process we had a ton of questions and felt overwhelmed and Patti always took time to guide us through each step and keep us calm and comforted throughout the home buying process. She was also a master at the negotiation process and made sure we were getting a fair deal as well as protected from potential issue that could arise. We have recommended her to countless friends and will be going to her for any real estate needs in the future. Thank you Patti!
I do not have enough words to communicate how highly I would recommend Patti to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. We used her to help us sell our home. We got excellent advice on easy ways to boost the property value and showability of the home before listing. She is an expert negotiator and when things started going poorly with the buyer whose offer we had accepted (things that were not Patti’s fault), Patti’s rock star negotiating skills came to the rescue and we still worked out a deal that was highly in our favor. We also used Patti to help us buy a new home after the sale of the first one. Once again, her friendly attitude and rockstar negotiating skills helped us find a great place at a great price. Her expert knowledge of the area and certain types of properties helped keep us from buying the wrong house for us. I know several other people who have used Patti to help them buy or sell a home (or both like we did!) and I have not heard a single complaint. Patti will take great care of you and make sure that you get the best deal possible. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
I’ve worked with Patti buying two homes and selling one. She is very knowledgable and takes time to educate her clients. She is also very quick to respond and professional. I was also impressed with her negotiation skills and felt like she worked hard to sell our home. I will continue to recommend her highly.
Patti not only sold our house but helped us find our dream home. Patti guided us through, what can be a VERY stressful experience, she was with us EVERY step of the way. Her knowledge, and wit made house hunting fun. Patti went above and beyond to make sure everything was in order – even with the busy season, crazy market, vacation schedules and work trips – I knew we were taken care of. I have already recommended her to friends and I am positive they will find her EXCELLENT in every way.
As a first time home buyer, my husband and I couldn’t have been more pleased to have had Patti in our corner to navigate the sometimes scary, bizarre, hilarious (and unexpectedly smelly!) nature of the home buying process. We could have worked with a stuffy, corporate, pompous Realtor, but why do that when you can tour some cutie fixer-uppers with a chick who’s a knowledgeable professional, totally has your back, and will crack some seriously on-point jokes about some less desirable properties that make you want to run away and find the closest shower. (I mean, seriously, people. Some real estate listings are using some very forgiving photography techniques…)In all seriousness, Patti went above and beyond setting reasonable expectations about the crazy Portland real estate market, and saved me a few times from selecting properties that she knew wouldn’t be a good fit for us in the long-run. Her communication skills and going-to-bat-on-your-behalf skills are unparallelled in the way she kept us constantly up-to-date every step of the way, and if I could shout her name on top of a mountain for everyone to use her mad skillz, I would.
I cannot thank Patti Jensen enough for being such an amazing, personable realtor and getting us into such an awesome home. We did not know her before the “adventure” of home buying began and met with her off a recommendation from someone in our old neighborhood. After meeting one time we knew she was who we would be going with. I could give so many examples of times she gave us sage advice, was incredibly patient with us, and in general just guided us through the emotional roller coaster of home buying. I could go on and on, but I guess the best compliment I could possibly give is that at no point during the process did I ever feel like Patti didn’t have our best interests in mind or felt I couldn’t trust her suggestions or advice- I feel that alone is worth it’s weight in gold. So if you’re looking for a realtor, I really can’t recommend Patti enough!
I have to give the biggest of shout outs to our amazing friend and realtor Patti Jensen. Patti was FABULOUS. She negotiated the most unreal deal for us on the house we were selling. We were completely shocked but we shouldn’t have been, because Patti rocks! We 100% would not have our new home without Patti and the amazing deal she got us. We sold high and bought low and in this market, that’s a miracle. We feel like God just brought Patti into our lives at just the right time and we are so grateful.
Patti has been a dream come true to work with. She has walked us through each step of the selling and buying process. She answered all our questions and put us at ease with her knowledge and first hand experience. She is always one step ahead and VERY encouraging through this whole process. If you’re looking for someone who is going to help you get what you want, someone with experience and someone who makes this process manageable she is a the realtor for you!
