Kathy Quick

"Dr Albert and Dawn - Lake Owsego: As a busy mom with two young boys, married to a doctor with a growing practice – our daily lives are hectic enough as it is. Throw-in moving from the east coast to Portland combined with looking for a new home and ... well, you get the picture. That’s where Kathy came in and really helped us out. Not only did she help us find our new home, she made a fairly involved transaction very easy for us. We bought a property in Lake Oswego from a seller who is living in Hawaii using a lender from the East coast with a relo company in the middle of everything. I’m not sure how many time zones that covers, but it does reinforce the point that a good real estate agent is worth every penny. I know Kathy certainly earned her pay and my respect and most importantly – our friendship. If you need a real estate agent, stop looking and call Kathy now."

"Carl and Kathy Ward, Lake Oswego and Phoenix, AZ: We recently sold our home in West Lake through Kathy Quick and wanted to convey how pleased we were with the entire experience. The most important thing that stands in our minds was just how smoothly everything went. There was no anxiety. No tense moments. From the moment we talked to Kathy about listing our home, we just knew we were in good hands. Kathy’s very easy to talk to; very approachable. But you also get the sense that she’s a professional who knows her business very well. Kathy also help us with our relocation to Phoenix – which was another huge positive. So instead of facing an uncertain move to an unfamiliar city, the experience turned out to be fantastic (and we absolutely love our new home). Kathy has our sincere thanks and we give her our highest recommendation."

"Allen and Patricia Robinson - Lake Owsego: We relocated to Oregon in late 2005 and started house-hunting early in 2006. We did our own hunting on the internet, trying the listing realtor at each property, until we got to a property Kathy was listing. At our first meeting we knew we had found our Realtor. Kathy brough the combination of market knowledge, great network contacts, and the down-to-earth, sensible approach we had been looking for. We wanted to conserve cash from our prior sale, and were worried about buying near the market’s top, but still wanted a quality property. It took another month, working exclusively with Kathy, and she worked with us patiently, without any pushing or pressuring. In March we found the perfect townhouse in Lake Oswego. Kathy did a super job helping us with the offer, getting us the many pages of CCRs that go with a townhouse, arranging a very thorough home inspection, and taking us through a series of counter-offers to the final agreement, all with the calm, friendly, and professional manner we had learned to expect from her. A year and a half later we love the townhouse as much as when we first saw it. Thank you, Kathy!"

"Nancy Sloan - Southwest Portland: My experience working with Kathy Quick was the best house searching experience I have ever had. She focused on the essence of what I desired in a home and honed in on it with gusto. Her partner/husband was a huge asset in the arrangement and was a major contributor to the plan for house hunting. Not only did he make the search for houses easy by doing all the driving, but he did his own housing searches based on the outcomes from the previous day and sent them to me in the evening after a long day of house hunting. The Quicks both gave expert advice on loans and mortgages and I truly felt they had my best interests at heart. As my schedule didn't lend itself to facilitate the inspectors and appraisors visits to the house I selected, the Quick team was there and got the job done. A full and thorough account of the outcomes and reports were promptly sent to me along with their seasoned advice and suggestions. It truly was an experience that I would reccommend to others. I feel I gained l a life-long source for trustworthy realty services and life-long friends."

"Marty and Karen Frey - Southwest Hills and West Linn: Kathy represented us in the sale of our home in West Linn as well as in the purchase of our new home in the Southwest Hills in Portland. During the buying process, Kathy made me feel extremely comfortable as she worked at my pace. She kept me up-to-date on the market, but was never pushy. But what really impressed me was the fact she got me in to preview certain properties BEFORE they went on the market – which speaks volumes about her network. And... when we switched gears from looking for waterfront properties to homes in the Southwest Hills, she didn’t miss a beat. Karen and I are now living in a gorgeous home overlooking the Willamette River with views of Mt Hood and Saint Helens! When it came time to sell our home in West Linn, Kathy delivered again. We were able to net the highest price per square foot in our neighborhood in a very reasonable amount of time... and at a time when the market was starting to cool. I handed her the keys and she took care of the rest. The staging company she works with did a fantastic job. We received an offer very close to our asking price from a very well qualified buyer. The transaction went off without a hitch. In short, it was a great experience and I would recommend Kathy without hesitation. She is a true professional."

"Roger and Judy Randolph - Portland Waterfront: We were out-of-state, cash buyers who found Kathy via the Internet. Kathy responded to our inquiries very promptly and she impressed us with her encyclopedic knowledge of Portland’s waterfront communities. She helped us navigate a very complex transaction that involved working directly with attorneys, lenders and the IRS. To say she is professional and extremely capable would be a fantastic understatement. We absolutely recommend Kathy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!"

"Bill and Anna Washburn - Portland Waterfront and Lake Oswego: For a full year, we had been working with two other realtors spinning our wheels hunting for a new home without success. However, once we started working with Kathy we rapidly gained traction. In a few short months we found a great home that fits perfectly with our desires. In fact, this home has everything we were hoping for and this for a fantastic price. Kathy took the time to really get to know our family and lifestyle and suggested we consider Lake Oswego... and we were sold instantly. We could not be happier with the neighborhood where we can raise our family. During the process, Kathy coordinated all the various inspections and communicated with the City on certain issues - which helped us save thousands of dollars. She initiated all necessary inspections in a very timely manner and also took care (completely her own initiative) of getting numerous bids from independent companies, which was very helpful in price negotiation. In the process of buying our new home Kathy proved to have a good relationship with the seller's agent and helped us negotiate a really great deal on our new home. Kathy also helped us sell our waterfront townhouse. She helped us price our home and marketed the property perfectly. In fact, she brought us a full price offer before it went on the market! The condo sold in a shortest time possible and this in a very difficult market, where other comparable units have been sitting on the market for months and months. She has a great knowledge of the areas she specializes in and is able to price her listings based on a very thorough market analysis. She is definitely a hard worker, very dedicated but also realistic and still warm and personable. She has been very respectful of how emotional the house searching process can be. She delivers what she promises and is also fun to work with!"

"Suzie Osterud - Lake Oswego: It’s not often that you find someone who starts out as your real estate agent and ends up a dear friend – but that is exactly what I found in Kathy. It’s amazing to watch her work. We received a pretty disappointing offer, but by the time we were through, Kathy had renegotiated the offer and my home sold for the highest price per square foot in the neighborhood! Kathy also found a beautiful new townhouse in Lake Oswego – which I just love. She took care of all the details for me and the move was worry-free. I recommend Kathy every chance I get."

"Tom and Sue Gillum - Portland Waterfront: We want to thank you so much for the time you spent with us on Friday and Saturday showing us condos in the John's Landing and Sellwood areas. You were so responsive to the kind of condo we were looking for, not wasting time looking at condos that didn't meet our criteria. We were impressed with how organized you were, planning the route in a logical order and taking time to contact owners of condos we were viewing. Our son was also impressed with you and will refer you to any of his friends who are in the market for property in the Portland area."

"Drs. Sean and Gretchen LaSalle - Lake Oswego: We worked with Kathy Quick and her husband Scott to sell our Lake Oswego townhouse last summer. We found Kathy through her mailings and are so glad we did! Kathy is highly professional and personable and did an amazing job guiding us through the selling process. She and Scott went above and beyond, helping us with everything from staging to landscaping to moving out when the property sold. Over time we came to think of them as friends and we still in touch even today. Kathy is dedicated, honest, realistic, a great advocate for her clients, and most of all genuine and warm. I would highly recommend Kathy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!"
