“I have to question these reviews as my experience was absolutely NOTHING like what these reviews would have you expect. Though this is a discount company, nothing could have prepared me for the extreme lack of competence. They are basically the equivalent to fast food real estate. Stephen will present VERY well on the first meeting. Then you will get passed off to a realtor you’ll never meet, who will never see your home and you will never have their direct contact information. It took me a long time to realize her phone number was just a generic line everyone in their office uses, mostly the administrative assistants. My agent never answered calls, and would only text back. So while I thought I was texting and communicating with my agent, it was only a generic line that office assistants were monitoring, not my agent. There was so many issues throughout this transaction, I can’t even begin to list them all here. This was mostly due to their sales premise of getting as many transactions as possible, having administrative assistants do as much as possible, and agents take on as many houses as possible. To say there were issues would be an understatement. -They literally missed at least one offer (that I know of) that took them almost a full day to unearth in the mass dump pile of all their transactions. My agent literally said “I can’t believe she didn’t call me”(even though they are instructed to email only) because she couldn’t hide that it was missed and we had lost the ability to use it as leverage with the offer we had currently been entertaining. There is no doubt I lost several thousand on not being able to leverage the two offers I had at the same time. -Another total breakdown…. there was an FHA requirement that I had literally asked about when the buyers requested to switch from FHA to conventional. I was told it should be fine. Well, 3 days prior to close, FHA said the requirement had not been met and the sales agreement had to be thrown out and completely redone adding 8 days onto the process not to mention the stress of having to go through the entire sales process again (another appraisal, more inspection period, etc). -The correct fee I was quoted was not included in the sales contract they sent to sign. I had to send the sales agreement back twice to correct the fee. This happened again at closing as they again added and extra .05% and had I not paid extremely close attention to ALL of the paperwork, I would have been out $2500 just for clerical errors. -I was really looking forward to the open house they originally promised and noted in his paperwork. When I inquired when it would be I was told they don’t do open houses because they are basically a waste of their time as they “don’t sell houses”. Not sure why they tell you they will do that when they have no intention of holding the open house but will never bother to tell you that. -When they sent the original listing doc which included the private notes to other realtors, they requested buyer realtors to communicate only through email, hence missing the offer. I could not believe this was how people would handle a 500k transaction with literally everything through email (again so administrative assistants would handle everything). - There was a number of times I received NO response at all to texts. Unless I followed through with additional attempts (days later) nothing would have been said. I can only imagine what the buyers agents went through trying to get questions answered. They had a terrible relationship with the buyers agent and blamed her for everything that went wrong (which was a lot). Please, do yourself a favor, and hire someone that prefers quality of quantity as far as transactions go. There are PLENTY of discount realtors who do so much better of a job, and thankfully I have found one. While these people were nice enough, their obvious priority is bulk sales and their bottom line.”

“I had a good overall experience with FixMyCredit @ WriteMe d0t Com. They were able to get negative items off my report and really took the reigns in handling everything on my behalf. I have already recommended them to friends and family and if I need their services again, I would definitely use them. My credit score also went up over 300 points.”

“Stephen and his team are top notch, easily the best real estate organization I've ever worked with. Stephen has an excellent marketing program and spends a ton of money on advertising across several real estate websites. Coupled with hosting open houses every week until the home is sold, it's hard to imagine another agent driving as much interest to your property. Very thorough and timely communications throughout the process of selling a home plus low listing fees with a cancel anytime policy make Stephen an easy choice when listing a home. I have recommended Stephen to several friends and family members over the last few years and will happily continue to do so. A+++”

“Working with Tyrone and Andrea was a pleasure! Selling a home can be a stressful experience, even in a seller's market. Team Parmelee were very responsive and "held our hands" through the entire process. Their knowledge, experience and positive, uplifting attitude were a huge plus. I highly recommend them!”

“Would recommend! Stephen's team was excellent to work with. Michael was my listing agent and he and the rest of the team made sure the entire process was simple and stress-free. They provided support and took care of everything, from listing through negotiations to closing, and were always available to answer any questions that I had. I would definitely do business with them again.”

“My experience with Kami was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable, patient, and kind during my home buying process. We were first time home buyers and had limited knowledge of the process and of course we were scared too. But she was amazing and stepped in to answer any questions that we had ensuring we were promptly informed of everything that was going on in the background. I still even reach out to her now when I have questions and she gladly answers them even when they're simple and silly questions. Thanks Kami for being there for us!”

“My wife and I, like many sellers if not all, had many questions many concerns. Michael was very responsive and helpful in answering questions. Jennifer was just unbelievable. After a few lost offers she encouraged us to be patient and things will work out. Thankfully they did. We received an offer way above our asking price which came at a time we least expected. Thank you so much!”

“We worked with Stephen on the sell side and with the help of his team we sold our home within the first week it was listed! We then worked with Kami and Greg on the buy side. Both teams were friendly, responsive, and friendly. Jennifer on the sell side was knowledgeable and always made sure to communicate with us and answered any questions or concerns we had. We had a short time frame to find a home and limited schedule, but Greg made sure to dedicate weekends and even an entire day with us. We found our forever home within a week. The entire transaction of selling and buying went smoothly and fast!”

“Stephen and his team delivered for us. Before meeting Stephen and team, we had been trying to sell our home for over a year and were running into constant roadblocks with a looming special assessment on our condo that had caused multiple sales to fall through. Stephen put together a top-down strategy from positioning, marketing, and negotiation tactics that delivered more than we could have imagined - under the circumstances. I also want to give a shout out to Jennifer for her persistence and follow through during all the stages during this unique sale. I highly recommend Stephen and team to any prospective seller as they can provide the strategy, resources, and expertise to get you from listing to closing date.”

“Meredith was great! She understands the climate of real estate in Portland. Being first time buyers she made us aware of so many details that we wouldn't have necessarily known otherwise and our buying process was infinitely better because of it. She "had our back" and we had a successful purchase of our first home thanks to her insights and ability to be where we needed, when we needed her in this very fast moving real estate market in PDX!”
