Hayley Rhode
In 2006 I worked with my mom in building our own family Real Estate Company in Portland, called Portland Creative Realtors. Later my sisters and brother in-law joined, it was really fun! We became one of the top real estate companies in Portland because of the way we ran our business. We built our business on putting our clients first, always being honest in all our dealings and making sure we were really representing them to the best of our ability, really listening to their needs instead of pushing our own ideas on them! Because of this, we built an ever growing loyal group of clients, word spread and our reputation grew.
I am now living and working in Southern Oregon. After 9 years of doing Real Estate in Portland, I moved to the Medford area. I love the Rogue River Valley, It is gorgeous! I joined The Alba Group down here because it has the same family feel I am used to. We are small, in number of Realtors, but that helps us keep close and help each other. I am excited now to be able to help buyers and sellers in the Rogue Valley, Jackson County areas, and use my experience from Portland to build the same kind of energetic, intuitive, client oriented company down here!
Though I may focus more in areas within 30 minutes of Medford, I can and will work from Crater Lake to Klamath Falls to Cave Junction to Wolf Creek.
Hayley ‘s experience, and why you should talk to Hayley about Real Estate:
I received my Oregon Real Estate license in 2005 and my Principal Broker in 2008. In my first year alone, I sold over 35 properties, working with both Buyers and Sellers. I have a wide range of experience in all aspects of Real Estate, including buying, selling, inspections, negotiations, distressed sales, etc. I have bought and sold 3 personal homes and also built 2 homes on acreage, adding to my knowledge and experience.

I am also still helping my family at Portland Creative Realtors, working as a remote assistant doing files, ads and other things that can be done remotely. It is nice to still be able to work with, and help, my family and have a little bit of a share still in the family business I helped start years ago.
I do love it down in southern Oregon, though. If you know anyone who wants to move to the Rogue Valley, I would love to help them find a house. There are so many different types of areas and lifestyles that the Rogue River Valley and Jackson County areas offers. It is important for your realtor to understand the uniqueness of each area, each home, and to portray that to potential buyers when listing a home, or help buyers understand the different nuances and lifestyles of the neighborhoods. They can only do that by listening, being observant, and picking up on things, sometimes not said directly, but felt. This is an important quality that that can make a realtor special…to really listen and care about what their client needs and wants. It is not the same for each client. It is always a little bit different. It takes experience, and it takes caring! 
Who Hayley is:
In my free time I enjoy all that the outdoors in Southern Oregon has to offer. From hiking with my dogs, to camping and rafting with my husband and friends, you can find so much to do down here in the summer! I also enjoy visiting the nearby Redwoods and Crater Lake from time to time.
I love taking time to visit my family in Portland when I get a chance, enjoying the Portland area again at the same time.
My husband and I enjoy traveling, we met in Hawaii and enjoy visiting there every couple years. We enjoy exploring beautiful Oregon and also enjoy visiting places like Yellowstone, Yosemite, also have dreams of exploring Alaska, Iceland, Australia.
