As a native to Portland, Tammie is very familiar with the neighborhoods and have been passionate about providing the best experience possible to her clients for over 30 years. She has earned the Five Star Professional Award for 15 years in a row and was recognized by Apple News as being in the top 10% of Realtors in the Portland area for 2024. Over the years, she has modified the services she provides based on what helps relieve as much stress as possible for her clients while making sure they have the best outcome with their sale or purchase.
Just a few things she does that are uncommon for her Seller clients are pay a professional cleaner to do either a pre-list or move-out cleaning (so all you have to do is drive away and the rest is taken care of to make the home ready for the new owner!), deliver unlimited boxes for packing (this applies to Buyers as well), and provide staging services (for both occupied and vacant homes). As a Certified Negotiation Expert, she has also learned over the years to be as professionally courteous while strongly negotiating on her client’s behalf with the cooperating Realtor because this philosophy creates the best experience for all parties involved. She enjoys helping a variety of clients from first time home buyers to seniors who are selling their home for the last time, as well as those in the luxury home market. She always begins with a consultation that includes a notebook of an abundance of critical information about the selling and/or buying process to be sure clear expectations are set. Her accomplishments include being part of opening the first Keller Williams office in the state of Oregon in 2003 and having ownership for five years, as well as having her own small brokerage for over 16 years. Additionally, she holds the Senior Real Estate Specialist designation. A common theme in the testimonials she receives are that her clients feel they've been heard, that she was patient with them (it's not about her!), and that she negotiated very successfully on their behalf. She's also committed to long-term relationships that are supported by quarterly and annual client events!
She and her husband, Mike, have enjoyed working together serving clients at the highest level possible through complimentary strengths for 23 years. They enjoy traveling, golf, reading personal and professional growth books, helping out at church, and spending time with friends and family. Sherwood, Oregon is where their home is with their two female chocolate labs, Lucy and Abby.
