Betsy Menefee Rickles

I could not recommend Betsy Rickles more highly. We were selling and looking for a new house for the first time in 20 years. Betsy understood our needs and our schedules and was always responsive. Her local knowledge is the deepest possible -- we tease her that she is related by blood or marriage to half the town and knows most of it. Plus, she is the most fun person to be around and who wouldn't want to be with someone you like and completely trust in such personal transaction? At several points our potential purchase of a new home got complicated. Betsy knew the answers to our questions or did whatever research she needed to find the answer. She's the best.

Betsy was very easy to work with, communicated efficiently and professionally, knew the market that we were dealing with and listened well to us as sellers. Her instinct was fantastic regarding what needed (or didn't need) to be done to the house prior to putting it on the market. Two solid offers came in immediately and we know it was because of Betsy's coaching and great timing. We still comment on how lucky we were!

The service we received from Betsy was perfect. We had the feeling that Betsy had held our interests ahead of anything else at each step of the process. She also knew professionally when to give us the appropriate nudge. Everything Betsy did exceeded our expectations. She honestly made the process enjoyable and we love her advertisements.

Betsy helped me find my dream house and she made the whole process so fun and easy. When we learned there would be two competing offers in addition to mine, Betsy had a strategy to make my offer stand out above the others. Throughout the whole experience, Betsy was responsive, smart, and flexible. She gave honest advice and explained every step in detail so that despite being a first time homebuyer I felt confident making decisions.

Wonderful agent! Very professional and responsive to both seller and buyer. Knows the PDX market and is both pragmatic and persuasive - Betsy's charm and business acumen achieved satisfaction on all levels (sold house in a week). Fantastic to work with-recommended without reservations!

Betsy sold our house and helped us find a new, smaller home. Buying and selling homes can be stressful but Betsy helped us navigate through it all with great listening and communication skills. We appreciated that Betsy was available, responsive and possesses a wonderful sense of humor. After Betsy sold our house we couldn't imagine working with anyone else to help us find a new home. We so appreciate her hard work and ability to provide objective and creative solutions to any issues that came up. Betsy manages to make the process of home buying and selling fun and run smoothly.

Betsy was always there for us and ready to answer our questions or provide guidance. She was wonderful in working with the seller and sellers' agent. She is, by far, the best agent we have come across or worked with. Thanks!!
