Michelle did an amazing job as our realtor! She went above and beyond the norm when it came to making sure we closed on time. We had some issues that suddenly came up during the final week prior to closing. Michelle immediately started thinking outside the box for solutions so that we could close on time, making so many phones calls that my head spins thinking about it! We believe that our home may not have sold had it not been for her tenacity and dedication. Her knowledge of the local real estate market is incomparable. Thank you, Michelle!

This was a first time thing for me, and kind of a big hard step for me to take especially for the rough market and Mary Jeanne stuck with me and helped me with way more than I thought a realtor would. She went above and beyond to make this purchase happen, if it wasn't for her hard work and dedication I wouldn't be able to say I'm a home owner. I know I wasn't the easiest client and definitely did not pick an easy house to buy. Was huge learning experience for me and she help me navigate through it all, helping me get a great mortgage broker, with finding me an inspector to helping me find a contractor and being at the place when I couldn't to keep the process moving forward. I'd recommend her to everyone and if I ever go to sell or buy I'll be calling her!

I was not looking forward to the process of selling my home. Mary Jeanne, however, took a daunting job in hand and guided me through it in a calm and professional manner. Her patience with all my questions and requests was refreshing and made me feel that she really heard me and had my best interests in mind. I would not hesitate to recommend her services.

I have known Michelle for almost 25 years. She became our agent in 2013 to sell our home in Troutdale. During that time she assisted me in buying my very first home by myself, in Gresham. In 2018 she assisted us in purchasing our dream home in Happy Valley. In 2022 she referred us to an agent in Bend to assist us in purchasing our vacation home in Central Oregon. In 2023, when I was closing in on retirement, we decided to sell our Happy Valley home. With the interest rates and the housing market Michelle let us know the market was a challenge, but she assured us she would do everything in her power to sell our beautiful home. We made sure our home was "turn key" ready for her to list. Her attention to detail and her knowledge of the housing market was incredible. Her personality is always positive and upbeat and it gives you the encouragement that everything is going to work out. In August we found the perfect buyers for our home and they were in love with it. Michelle goes above and beyond to assist her sellers and buyers in every way that she can. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle as a person and a real estate agent. I highly recommend her professional services and promise you will also gain a remarkable friend. Thank you Michelle for ALL that you have done for me professionally and personally.

We have known Michelle for many years and had previously used her talents to purchase our last home in Troutdale. She has complete knowledge of the East County area and what the market is doing at all times. We did not think of any one else when we decided to sell our house. Michelle was very professional from start to finish and was there for the many questions we had and also just when we needed a friendly voice to help us along our house sale journey. She had a lot of insight when we were setting up our house for the photos as well as getting the house ready for the open house and future home tours. We couldn't ask for a better agent representing us.

Michelle was an wonderful relator, she took the time to look for what we really wanted and can offer. As first time homebuyers, she was always ready to explain and answer all the questions we had. She makes sure we made the right decisions and got the house that we loved. We finally got the house at the location we wanted and now happy to become homeowners! It was a wonderful experience to worked with you Mitchell, and we appreciate your flexible schedule throughout the time you work with us!

We met Michelle as new homebuyers, and left our first meeting feeling significantly more knowledge about the home buying process. She took time to get to know us, and then explained the process in ways that we could understand. The property she suggested would have been perfect for us already, but Michelle fiercely advocated for us throughout (and even after!) the purchase, making sure that we knew the house, property, and community before making our final decisions. She was always available for questions, always patient in her explanations, and consistently kind and professional. We always felt included in the process, and Michelle has a wonderful way of collaborative brainstorming, leveraging her considerable knowledge of the community to find creative solutions. We’d recommend her to friends, family members, and our future selves.

My husband and I had lived in Canby, Oregon, almost 40 years, and the last 20 years our home was on the Willamette Valley Country Club golf course where we belonged to the club and also my daughter belonged to the club in a home we owned and rented to her. We decided to move permanently to Arizona where two of my other children live, and my daughter in Canby wanted to also move there. So in the summer of 2022, the process started, and then in the late fall we decided to put the home my daughter rented from us on the market, and Mary Jeanne Sheveland was there for us immediately. She was very optimistic and knowledgeable about the housing market and immediately found a buyer that we were able to negotiate with to make the offer and close the process successfully. Mary Jeanne's professionalism as a realtor, her friendly personality as person, and her ethical handling of all the details and paperwork made this process very confident and enjoyable.

Michelle Carter Smith is the bomb, she did a great job helping us navigate the sale of our home in a very tricky market. In a buyer's market she helped us price competitively while still getting a fair price. We ended up with 4 very solid offers and were able to select the best. It was a rollercoaster ride for sure, and having Michelle there to advise at key moments and make sure all the paperwork was done correctly was huge. In addition I felt she went above and beyond, making herself available, as she was out of town on a family vacation during the first week of our listing. We were not able to get our house listed until very late in October, right before she had to go out of town. During that time she made sure we were taken care of and was completely involved on a daily basis despite being in a time zone 8 hrs ahead of us, taking a vacation with her family. In a nutshell we had to list our house at a terrible time of the year, and also as the market was going in the toilet, spiralling downwards into a strong buyers market, with interest rates soaring, but were still able to get our house sold quickly and competitively. I credit Michelle for that. Thank you!

Michelle has helped us buy 3 separate properties in Corbett. If you are interested in buying in Corbett, you need to get onto Michelle's potential buyer's list. She will interview you and make sure your offer making status is ready to go. She will then be aware of what you are looking for and when anything suitable comes onto the market, she will notify you asap. She is thorough, honest and no nonsense. Everything went surprisingly smoothly this last time, despite the lack of communication from the other broker and the uniqueness of the property. We cannot recommend Michelle highly enough. 10 stars!

Michelle knows more about the Corbett real estate market than anyone! She was thorough, kind, prompt and responsive in the purchasing of our dream home. Her acuity and intuition complement eachother to make her a smart and supportive advocate in all moments of the transaction. We are deeply appreciative of Michelle’s experience and care. Would give ten stars if I could!
