I recently worked with Wendy and purchased a home in the Beaverton area. It was a very challenging time to buy a home but Wendy was awesome and helped me search the entire Portland and Beaverton area for a home. I chose Portland Creative Realtors because they seemed to offer a more personalized approach and I was not disappointed. Highly recommend!!

We worked with Wendy to both buy and sell, and it was a great experience. She kept us grounded despite the crazy market conditions, and was a really strong negotiator, able to help us get what we wanted without alienating the other party. She kept calm and positive no matter what and did a good job of helping us think through the decisions and options we had throughout the process. We always felt she was defending our interests and advocating for us. We would absolutely work with her again and recommend her to others.

It was really awesome working with Wendy, Helen and Lylie when selling our family house. Extremely attentive, good communication, helped us find contractors when needed. Took amazing photos of our house which totally contributed to a higher sale price. Good coaching on strategies on selling the house.

I would recommend Helen to anyone who wants to successfully purchase a house in the Portland metro area. Helen is very professional and patient with us during the whole buying process. Because we just moved here and we didn't know anything about the neighborhood, Helen would tell us about the neighborhood where the house we looked at and make sure that it's something we want for our family. Helen listens to us well and really makes a lot of effort in not just finding the right house for us but also helping us having our offers accepted! She definitely made our first time house purchasing much easier with her experience and knowledge. What I really love about her is that we never feel like being pushed and she wanted us to have a house that we LOVE! There's never a time that a question is not being answered! We would love to work with her again in the future!

200% is what I rate them!!!. Hellen, Wendy and the whole team put tremendous effort into getting my family's house sold. They went above and beyond into giving as the most up to date info. on how the market is doing, and when is best to sell. They took care of everything from staging the house, putting it on the market and dealing with clients all for a small cost of 1.5% of the selling price. And the result speak for itself, because the house sold for 75K over asking price. If that ain't evidence, I don't what is!!!

We LOVE Lyle! Had such an amazing experience both in purchasing a new house and selling it several years later. Lyle was patient with all of our requests for multiple showings during the weekends to accommodate our busy schedules, and helped walk us through our first home purchase. Truly cannot say enough about how at ease we felt with Lyle and the team guiding us through this process during such hot markets. Thank you!

It was not the first time we had a pleasure working with Portland Creative Realtors. They are highly professional and wonderful people to work with: very knowledgeable and responsible.Lyle and Helen recently helped us sell our house in Sherwood, and it was the third deal with them. It was going super smooth, and Lyle was on top of it through the entire process, giving us helpful advice and answering all questions.

My husband and I had no idea where to start when buying a home in Oregon. Our good friends Joe and Liz (their review is below) gave us Helen’s information. We are sooo glad we worked with her because previously we were in communication with another real estate agent that did not know good pricing for the areas. Our friends would check with Helen and her predictions were spot on about certain houses being overpriced. Her experience and knowledge of the area saved us $100,000 when we almost wanted to put in an offer on a house that was overpriced. She guided us in the right direction to get an amazing house by the river in West Lin and we couldn’t be happier! Thank you Helen!

As a first time seller of a condo, I needed a realtor who would be informative and very patient me. Lyle with Portland Creative Realtors, was a blessing to work with and made the process easy for me to get through, during a difficult time in my life. If you are looking for a realtor who isn't in a rush and who has your best interest at heart, I strongly suggest giving Portland Creative Realtors a call.

Lyle was a patient, thorough and helpful guide through our first home buying experience. He was very knowledgeable and on the rare occasion he did not know something he admitted it up front and found out the answers for us. He would give us his opinion from his experience but allow us to make own decisions. Between all of the professionals involved in buying a house he was the highlight of our experience.

Helen and Wendy sold our million plus dollar riverfront home. It was a difficult sale but Helen and Wendy did a great job working through all the details. Helen's expertise on the financing end of things made sure the buyer could find financing for this complex sale: she is amazing!Their eagerness to try something new (3D Zillow pictures) was fabulous. The 3D pictures were phenomenal and the drone video was as good as it gets. Wendy took that 3D camera (she had never used one before), learned its intricacies, and gave us a superb listing. Her can-do attitude to learn something new - and do it well - was refreshing. The house had been previously unsuccessfully listed with another great agent, but Helen and Wendy's efforts on the pictures and videos were as good as it gets.

When we decided it was time for our family to find our forever home we asked friends for advice. We were steered into the direction of Portland creative realtors and are so glad for that! After our first talk and getting all the details of our dream home lined up Lyle was on point in finding us listings. We started looking at homes and he was all to accommodating to help us in our journey to find our first home. After weeks of correspondence and searching we found our dream home. Lyle was on top of things and never left questions unanswered. He was so diligent in helping us understand how to become first time homebuyers! It made the process so exciting and not stressful like I've heard from other homebuyers.If you are a family looking to buy a home I highly recommend this family owned company. They will take all your needs and concerns as their own and make it a memorable experience. If we ever sell this home and look for another we will definitely be contacting Lyle! Thank you!!!

We were so impressed with Lyle, Wendy and the team at Portland Creative Realtors. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions regarding the home buying process; however, Lyle made the process so simple by answering all of the questions we had along the way. Lyle always kept us up-to-date with our new home and made us feel comfortable with our purchase. We definitely recommend Lyle, Wendy, and the entire team at Portland Creative Realtors.

My husband and I have known Helen and Portland Creative Realtors for more than 12 years. We have used them to purchase 3 different houses. Helen has always provided us the very best advice , especially during negotiations. She is honest, fair and very attentive. We have also appreciated her great contacts (electricians, plumbers, etc.) We will never use a different company. I can not recommend Helen and her team enough!

Helen was wonderful in helping us find the perfect home for our family. She is very knowledgeable about different neighborhoods and really took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for in a home. Helen really wants her clients to find exactly what they are looking for, no matter how long it might take. She also helped us to sell our previous home. Helen gives excellent advice for prepping your house to sell, in fact ours went in a few days with multiple offers. I cannot recommend Helen highly enough, she is very professional and knowledgeable in her field, and also down to earth and a joy to work with.

Helen provided us with a flat fee service. With this service, she put up a sign in front of our house, took professional photos of our property, helped us create a brochure, placed a lockbox and put the house up on RMLS. The buying Realtors called us, as we were technically FSBO with limited representation, but when offers came through, we sent everything on to Helen through DocuSign. She helped us decipher and navigate the paperwork. It was the simplest process and her help was priceless!! Helen is extremely knowledgeable, kind, caring and just plain helpful! If you are looking for a guided FSBO process that is affordable, look no further! It won't be a waste of your money. Helen's knowledge of property values helped us earn an additional $12,000 on our property that we otherwise would have let go (because we didn't know better.) We are grateful to Helen. We were on contract within a week of listing and closed within 30 days. It was a seamless process. Portland Creative Realtors are the best in Portland.

My wife and I reached out to Helen to purchase a house listed with Portland Creative Realtors. Helen paired us up with her son-in-law Lyle (also a licensed realtor) to act on our behalf through the purchasing process.Lyle was great. We communicated almost exclusively over email, and he was quick to respond.It's a family business.They happened to be selling what we wanted and I saw no reason to get an outside realtor involved. So we went with them and I'm glad we did.Cool beans.

Helen, was great. She gave me candid suggestions for maximizing my return on investment when remodeling my condo and referred me to a fantastic staging company who helped the unit sell in only a couple of days. I live in a different state but managing the sale of this unit via text, phone call, and email was a breeze. Helen's incredibly knowledgable about the Greater Portland area real estate market which is why I keep coming back to the company. This was my third time using Portland Creative Realtors and I strongly recommend them.

I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with Portland creative realty. Helen and Lyle are just so patient and helpful and have taught us so much over the years. We first became clients in 2013 and were so happy we have now used PCR for three other transactions and will definitely use PCR in the future. Helen is a wealth of knowledge and so helpful with decision making needs and thinking about creative options. We never felt rushed (after viewing many many properties) we are just so thankful we discovered PCR!

Helen is really wonderful to work with and very knowledge about various Portland neighborhoods (there are MANY they have different price points and characteristics). I was moving from out of state and she was very, very helpful, even going out to look at properties for me when I couldn't be there. When it took me a few weeks to arrive after closing, her husband stopped by the house regularly to keep an eye on things and he even helped keep the hot tub in balance. If you are local or out of state, you can't work with a better agent to find your dream home!

Wendy is an expert realtor who truly goes the extra mile for her clients. I worked with Wendy as I was buying my first home this past year, and I couldn’t have dreamed of a better realtor to help me through the entire buying process. She kindly and patiently coached me through every decision over the course of several months until I found my perfect home. I absolutely recommend Wendy and would work with her again in the future!

Wendy went above and beyond to help us in our home search. She has extensive knowledge of Portland and its ever changing neighborhoods. Being that we live in Reno, we relied on Wendy to help us narrow down our search. She went to homes we were interested in, took pictures, and even did video walkthroughs for us. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to make the move to Portland at this time. When the time comes, we’ll definitely being using Wendy to help us find our perfect home. We highly recommend Wendy!Tim & Shelli Wolfe

I don't remember how we connected with Helen and Portland Creative Realtors when we moved to town, but I'm so thankful we did! Helen immediately took us under her wing and educated us on the local market. She has an extensive knowledge of all facets of Portland real estate: the area, neighborhoods, what's hot, what's up-and-coming, places to avoid, and family friendly areas. We took a LONG time to find the right opportunity (a couple years), but Helen always stuck by us and spent the time needed to help us. Her loyalty and commitment to helping us find our family home set her apart from all the others, and in the process we gained a valued friend. We couldn't be happier with Helen!

Wendy and the whole team at Portland Creative Realators are amazing! Wendy especially went above and beyond to help us find our dream home at the price we could afford and help us sell our house even though we had a difficult situation with an large impending HOA assessment. She was always available to ask questions of and would respond to texts or emails promptly. When there were any issues with our buyers or sellers Wendy worked tirelessly to find a solution. My husband and I spent days and weeks trying to find just the right house and Wendy patiently took us to every house we showed any interest in and never pushed us to make a decision. We would HIGHLY recommend her and Portland Creative Realators to any one looking to buy or sell their house.

Where to start? Just shy of two years ago we relocated back to OR and I believe Helen must have looked at at least 50+ homes with my husband as well as communicating a ton with me while I was still out of state. Helen helped us narrow down our list of must haves and ideal locations. We decided on a home but the other realtor wasn’t onboard with selling the house so we moved on to house number two, sadly that homeowner chose not to fix any of the issues outlined in the contract so we moved on to house number three - it was the winner! Along the way Helen never lost her patience with us and our numerous questions and concerns. Fast forward to now, we are in the midst of selling a rental home - Helen walked through the property and gave input on what areas needed to be updated to be the most marketable we could be. We now have two offers in less than a few days. We’ve worked on both sides with Helen and cannot recommend her and her team enough!

We used Portland Creative Realtors to sell our King City Condo. They were very attentive to our needs and very professional every step of the way. Lyle was our contact and he communicated very well. In addition he took wonderful pictures of our property and within 24 hours of the listing going public we had an offer that went through to closing. I would highly recommend Portland Creative Realtors to anyone wanting to sell their property or if you are buying a property give them a call. They were totally upfront and honest and put know pressure on us. From the time we listed until we closed was less than 2 months. It could have been a couple of weeks sooner but we delayed closing to accommodate our needs.

I just had the privilege of working with Lyle Peterson from Portland Creative Realtors when he sold my home in Tigard, OR.

I'll definitely be using Lyle again!

Helen helped me tremendously in selling my home. She is very knowledgeable about older homes and what does and does not need to be done. My septic tank was rusted out and I was told I was within 300 feet (270 feet) of a sewer and had to hook up to it. There was no sewer on my street and the expense would have been tremendous to have one built on my own. She fought long and hard to come to an understanding that was fair to me and never gave up. She also brought in the buyer so my commission was only 2%. At most, it would have been 4% which is also better than most. Her husband, Robert, was also very helpful with things that needed to be done. I totally recommend her.

Helen was our realtor when we recently sold and bought our home. She was super on top of every detail in both transactions. While we were on the hunt for houses and we found one we wanted to see she was very flexible with her schedule and always tried to get us to view the house asap. She is a very experienced realtor. We also didn't pay as much as we would've if we were to have gone to another realtor. Thx Helen!!!

We had the opportunity to use Wendy with Portland Creative Realtors to sell two homes. She is very professional, always available and determined to do a great job for you. She made this process so easy. The best thing about Portland Creative Realtors is that it’s family run. So if Wendy was on a showing, one of her family team members was able to assist. We never felt neglected. We would and already have recommended her and her company to others.
