PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Lara James
www.larajameshomes.com
- I worked with Lara to sell my Portland, OR home. Lara was extremely well prepared for our first meeting and we were able to very quickly establish a competitive price and marketing strategy. Lara was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the process. She managed all aspects of the sale from staging to repairs. The house sold very quickly and for full price. I can’t recommend Lara highly enough.
- Working with Lara was so easy! She was always on time, she lined up the best
photographers, lenders, and handy people to help us get our home on the market quickly. We will be using Lara as our realtor for all future home purchases and sales!
- Our family worked with Lara to both sell our house and purchase a new home.
She was incredibly knowledgeable about Portland metro neighborhoods which helped us narrow our home search. Lara was great a negotiating! We go over the asking price for our old house and negotiated a great price for our new house. We couldn't have been happier with the experience and confidently recommend her with the highest regard!
- Lara took the time to understand our needs. We're a busy two-career couple and
Lara worked with our schedule to market our home and get to a sale. Ultimately we closed the transaction above our listing price. Lara took ownership of the process along the way and was a total pro.
- Lara far exceeded our expectations while helping us sell our first home. She did so
while representing us on the purchase of our next home. There is little doubt that her superior marketing ability was directly responsible in attracting multiple offers well-above asking price. Her business acumen guided us smoothly through both transactions despite the many obstacles we encountered along the way. Lara operated beyond compare in managing all facets of our complicated transaction and has, personally, been a pleasure to get to know. We would recommend her without hesitation.
- Lara is knowledgeable, responsive, and dependable and went above and beyond. I was very impressed with her knowledge in the West side, since that is where I was specifically was looking for a home. Lara knew the areas and neighborhoods and what the commutes would look like. She was present for things like repairs and checked in on the septic inspections. But for her, we would not have found out the repair people didn’t show up when they were supposed to- multiple times. When I needed movers to help me unload, she sent her son and friend over for a couple hours. I would highly recommend Lara as an agent.
- Lara did a great job of getting to know my husband and I, our personalities, our lifestyle and what we were looking for in a home. She made herself available in the limited time we had in the market and was committed to finding us our perfect home in a short amount of time. We could not be happier with Lara!
