Client Testimonials

Jeanne Able is the most knowledgeable businesswoman with whom we have ever dealt. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of the real estate business, but beyond that, she works tirelessly for her clients, finding the answers for arcane inquiries, locating competent building tradesmen and inspectors and developing creative options for your buying/selling negotiations. She also possesses a thorough psychological understanding of the needs and motivations of buyers and sellers. With boundless patience and endless grace she is able to lead her buyers to a comfortable understanding of the critical differences among what they think they want, what they truly need and what they can afford -- an extraordinary balancing act. We have purchased three properties through Ms. Able, two investments and our current home. When we are in the market for another real estate investment, Ms. Able will lead the way.

We have worked with Jeanne on 4 real estate transactions and she is a joy to work with. Her knowledge of the market, our taste in homes, and understanding our goals, allowed her to find properties that we were excited about. As our family has grown, Jeanne has been there to help us upsize to accommodate! Through both purchases and sales, Jeanne was working hard to ensure we were satisfied. She is, and always will be, our agent.

Jeanne has helped us buy and sell property for over 15 years. I would highly recommend Jeanne to anyone for any real estate transaction. Her years of experience is definitely a plus because she knows how to negotiate and come up with solutions to overcome any hurdles to any real estate transaction. We recently purchased some land to build a home on and her real estate skills paid off with this transaction. She is definitely one of the best Real Estate brokers around the Portland area and I will continue to use Jeanne for future transactions for years and years to come.

Jeanne is an excellent realtor. She has helped us buy 2 homes and sell 2 homes; if we ever buy another home she'll be the one we call. Jeanne was able to find homes that met or exceeded our criteria within our desired price range. For the homes she sold we exceeded market value and the homes sold at or above asking. She is professional, highly knowledgeable, and is excellent at what she does.

Jeanne was most professional at all times during our 18 months of searching and finally obtaining our new property. She always responded immediately to our concerns, making sure we were informed. She knows more about real estate transactions than all other associates we encountered this past year and a half. Her best attribute is the fact she's a great personal human being.

Jeanne did an amazing job for my wife and I. She found several houses that we liked, all within our budget and desired area. She did a lot of work for us through each step of the way. Her knowledge of the market, buying process, construction practices, negotiations, and an expansive contact list, make her invaluable to have on your side. She was always available and eager to help in any way that we needed. She will be our 1st choice whenever we buy/sell again. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

If we ever need to sell or buy a house anywhere in the greater Portland metro area, we will be using Jeanne again. She was very patient an accommodating, even when we wanted to see what seemed like 50 houses. We even had difficulties with an accepted offer and she guided us through our options and into an even better end result with confidence and grace.

Jeanne does so much more than a typical real estate agent. Jeanne referred a company to update our kitchen and 2 bathrooms at the least cost to maximize the sales price. Jeanne suggested a terrific firm to stage our home for photos and tours, and coordinated this work well in advance so our house would hit the market at a time when there was not a lot of other listings on the market. This resulted in multiple offers and ultimately a quick closing. Jeanne's market knowledge definitely resulted in a great outcome.

Professional, experienced, knowledgeable, proactive and thorough: this briefly describes our recent home purchase experience with Jeanne Able. We were referred to Jeanne by a friend and found the whole process, from the early discussions about what we wanted to closing, to have been a great experience. We felt from those early discussions Jeanne was really listening and understood what we wanted; she then took on our desires and needs and proceeded as if she was buying a home for herself. Having bought several homes over the years we’ve certainly had a variety of realtors experiences; working with Jeanne has been the best and least stressful by far. We were not looking for a place in Portland and Jeanne made no bones about finding and showing homes in outlying areas. Once when we were spending the weekend in Maupin we saw a place and with a simple phone call she was able to get us access in just a few minutes. An important part of this whole process was that Jeanne was always available and very proactive: always following through and ensuring we understood what was happening with the transaction. She also ensured we covered all of our bases regarding buyers protection for the house itself. We very much appreciate our experience with Jeanne and whole heartedly recommend her for your real estate needs.

Working with Jeanne in buying our new home was awesome from start to finish. As a first time home buyer, I was very grateful for her wealth of knowledge through the entire process. From exploring home options, to drafting offers, and negotiating through the closing phase, everything went very smoothly. She is also very reliable and prompt in responding to any questions or concerns. Overall, our experience working with Jeanne was great and I would recommend her to anybody looking to buy a home in the Portland area .

Jeanne is on top of her listings. She's not afraid to tell her professional opinion, which she always references with market data and sales. Jeanne is there to offer her valuable services and will not beat around the bush to get business. Her follow up was excellent. She met our marketing requirements which are stringent. We appreciate her as a Realtor. Many jobs well done!

Jeanne Able came highly recommended to us by a family member who previously worked and trained under her. She was instrumental in helping us sell our condo and has helped put us in a great position as we look to close on a new home. She is extremely personable, honest, and carries a wealth of knowledge and experience. Since she has represented builders, developers, and buyers, she has a great understanding about what the expectations and exceptions would be in many different circumstances. Jeanne is a philanthropist at heart which truly translates to the service of her customer. I would certainly recommend Jeanne to anyone looking to buy or sell their home.

A gifted listener, Jeanne uses her extensive knowledge of local markets to astutely address her client's needs. When those needs evolve 180 degrees, Jeanne remains completely unflappable and produces terrific results. She is a delight to work with!

It is my pleasure to recommend Jeanne Able as a top-notch real estate broker. I first met Jeanne 9 years a go when I relocated to Oregon from Arizona - She was the listing agent of the home I purchased. Since then, Jeanne has helped me sell or buy every home I've lived in (3), as well as an investment property. Jeanne expertly flights homes for sale; her marketing skills and knowledge of this market are unparalleled. Jeanne's expertise and integrity make her a delight to work with, I trust her judgment implicitly. She has a vast network of professionals in other industries, and is happy to share a name or two when I need a referral. She's not only a consummate real estate professional but also a terrific business person, and a good friend.
