"As first-time home buyers, my wife and I were extremely nervous about starting the process, but Mathew Claeys made everything so easy for us. We found our perfect home and from the moment we decided to make an offer, to the moment we had our keys in hand, Matt was by our side. He made the whole process feel very understandable and manageable and was always available to answer our questions. He gave great advice and provided amazing resources and support for our FHA loan process, home inspection, and move in process. We even got a gift basket full of treats to congratulate us on our new home. It truly felt like we had a trusted guide supporting us the whole way and the entire process was enjoyable because of that. Thank you, Mathew Claeys, for making our home buying experience a true pleasure!" Justin & Vivianna
"Matthew was absolutely amazing! We had such a great experience with him. His knowledge of the Portland metro area and his negotiating skills are what set him apart from other real estate agents. We wouldn’t have the house we have if it wasn’t for Matthew! Not only is he hardworking and determined but he is also so kind and personable! Thank you for the beautiful housewarming gift!" Caitlin
"Matt was amazing to work with from start to finish. As soon as we found a property we wanted to put an offer on, he dropped everything and met with us to get that offer submitted and get our house ready to be listed. We listed our house on a Friday, and during a low demand season, we had about 50 groups come through our Saturday and Sunday open houses along with some additional private showings. We ended up with 3 offers by Monday and got over $10k above list price with a back-up buyer. Matt also helped make the buy process super smooth and helped us negotiate a few extras into the house. We got the house for under list price too! He also surprised us with a welcome home gift once we moved in to the new home. Highly recommend Matt and will definitely work with him again!" Williams
"Matt was great.  We took a long time to figure out exactly what we were looking for and he was very patient and responsive.  He paid attention to what we wanted and was able to provide great insights on properties.  As we were selling he had recommendations on the best places to target our energy.  Highly recommend." Foster
"As first time home buyers, my husband and I were a little intimidated at first. Luckily we had Matthew as our broker. We were deeply impressed with the support and insight he offered throughout our entire home buying process. He took the time to answer every one of our questions and gave excellent advice. He was patient, thorough and very quick to respond. We would use him again in a heart beat!" Kimberly
"Buying a home was stressful to say the least. Matthew was our calming voice of reason throughout by being incredibly professional, knowledgeable and patient throughout our entire home buying process. Matthew wasn't afraid to give his honest opinion, in which we embraced wholeheartedly, in regards to location, schools, neighborhood, price, the house and the list goes on and on. In the end, we fell in love with a home we desperately had to have, but fully understood the ups and downs that come from bidding on a home. We had felt the crush of bidding on a home with 15 others to only be out bid by an all cash offer from California. I believe that Matthew was the sole reason we were able to come out on top on our bid for our new home. Matthew was spot on with his offer amount and along with a well written letter to the owner we were able to close on our dream home! I can't thank Matthew enough for what he has done for my family. I would recommend Matthew to anyone looking to buy a new home." Dallas
"Matthew was an awesome realtor to work with. He made sure to listen to what we wanted and he helped make the transaction go smoothly. He answered all the questions and concerns, while being quick in response." Hargrave
"Matt was extremely helpful in terms of going above and beyond. He was never too busy to answer his phone or arrange a showing, even at night. The market was horrible but we can't complain because it gave us time to get to know him much better. He was very thorough and experienced, and he kept us in the loop every minute. Thank you, Matt." Abdallah A.
"Every aspect of working with Matt exceeded my expectations! From the start, he was committed to helping us find the right house - and even though we took our time, and our goals shifted through the buying process, we never felt pressured or rushed. He helped us understand the nuances of the real estate market and pointed out potential issues with homes or features that added to their value long term. He was able to balance offering insight with listening to our impressions in a way that always felt supportive and made me feel heard and understood. When it came to negotiations, he handled everything with a professionalism and confidence that took the stress out of the process for us. He was even successful in insisting on some high priced improvements/repairs on the home that saved us a lot of money and work. We cannot recommend him highly enough!" Jessica
"Gabe was amazing! I was thrown into the task of selling my grandpas house when he health started to fail, I have no idea what I was doing and this was not an easy process but Gabe was a lifesaver. He guided me through the entire ordeal, he was honest and straightforward and extremely efficient. He was patient with all of my questions and the roadblocks we encountered. Will definitely recommend him to anyone needing to buy or sell a home" Nicole V.
"I can't imagine that we were easy clients to work with. We had a very loose idea of what we were looking for within a very broad area (from Dundee to North Portland; Milwaukie to Hillsboro). Gabe took it all with great stride - and due to the competitive nature of the market - he was always willing to arrange showings right away so we wouldn't miss out on something. Gabe quickly got to understand our likes and dislikes and was able to help us hone in on the perfect place for us. The whole process was so simple...and Gabe is a real pleasure to work with. Can't wait to start working together in looking for that acreage one day... :)" Tiffany C.
"Gabe is professional, knowledgeable and very timely. His help and expertise through the buying process were a great comfort. His knowledge as a realtor is amazing but nothing compared to how he treats people. I highly recommend him." Stu & Julia K.
"We are foreign first time home buyers, and Gabe couldn't make this experience more smooth. He was super proactive, flexible, and empathetic during the whole process. We felt very comfortable and safe with his help—no words to express how grateful we are. Also, during this pandemic, he did the best practices with social distancing, video calls, and scheduling visits with security as well.." Bia & Fabio P.
"Gabe was very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained things well and he always found the answer if he didn’t know it. When things got stressful he was always understanding and compassionate. I highly recommend him." Paige H.
"Gabe and Greg helped our family buy our first home. They were very attentive and honest. We had been looking to buy for a few years and they got it done for us quickly. It was fun working with them!" Michael & Melissa S.
"Gabe is awesome! He is a true partner in real estate transaction. We had just one 1 week to choose the house, and 1 month to close. Gabe made it happen! I highly recommend you to work with him. He makes this stressful process as easy as possible, he is knowledgeable about the market and puts his customers interests first." Anton & Anna K.
"Gabe's just great! There was never a moment that we felt rushed. He was there for us through the entire process and addressed every concerns we had. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family." Mike M. & Sophy P.
"Gabe was awesome through the whole process, especially during (my) stressful moments. He was always able to help me regain my composure and even came to my house one time to explain and help fill out a document that was difficult for me. I always felt comfortable asking him any question. If he didn’t know the answer to a question he knew how to get the answer and he would return the answer within less than a day, usually within an hour. I highly recommend Gabe!!" Paige H.
"It was great to have Gabe helped us out. He finds a big list of what you look for for a short period of time. You have question, he immediately search answer for you right away. He give you honest opinion of pros and cons and what you need to look for if there is and potential problem. Get his to help you, it won't be wrong." Kyle Y. & Jessica L.
"I would definitely recommend Gabe! Awesome communication and service. We sold two properties through him this summer and would absolutely use him again. He came up with great strategies for negotiations and really made the process of selling a breeze. Thank you Gabe, for your patience and expertise! Five star service!" Monica G.
"I had the pleasure to work with Gabriel to buy our new home. He and his group has an army of people that will make your buying experience really smooth and stress free. His persistence, patience, and commitment to find the right house for us was extraordinary. He will answer any questions you have and will work really hard to make sure you understand every detail along the way. They know the best people in the business, from home inspectors to lenders so that you make the right choice in every step of the way. Gabriel’s humility, good values, professionalism, and commitment to keep you updated at any time will guarantee the right house for you with zero stress during the entire process. I am grateful we had the opportunity to work with Gabriel to find our new home." Hector R. & Mara
"Thank you Sam! We want you to know how grateful we are for your being a part of this significant event in our lives. Thank you for easing our fears and anxieties with your guidance and always being available for us. Your awesome calm and patience helped us to remain centered.  We found comfort knowing you were taking this journey with us. Thank you so very much for all the hard work you’ve put into helping us land our first home! Now that the buying process is over, we are truly excited about making this house our own" Luci A. & Scott H.
"If you’re looking for the very BEST… Karyn is your gal! We were undecided between Oregon and Washington but Karyn stuck with us the entire way and in the end helped us find the perfect home in Washington during the midst of a pandemic! This was our first home purchase, and we truly believe we couldn’t have done it without Karyn and all her support during the process. She was so much fun to spend days with touring potential homes. She went above and beyond while traveling and had a colleague show us a house at last minute request. She answered all my questions, and let’s be honest, it was a lot! The biggest benefit of all is that we gained a forever friend in her. She continues to watch us renovate and bring our ideas to life. We recommend her to anyone who’s looking to buy a home!" Megan B.
"Working with Karyn has made our home buying experience so much fun. She is very responsive and knowledgeable. There were never any questions about what comes next in the process because she had us well informed all the time. She was great at spotting things in the homes we were touring that we would have missed. We are so grateful she was able to help us find our forever home." Lori Morris
