Alexis Halmy

In a blistering hot housing market, even buyers with pre-approved lender letters without contingencies still doesn’t guarantee a successful purchase. We can have all your ducks in a row, a heartfelt love letter to the sellers, and yet, that still does not guarantee that we’ll get that dream house we’ve been looking for! Luckily for us, my son-in-law’s family connected us with Alexis Halmy from Windmere Realty Trust who helped my newly married daughter in 2017 with the pressure cooker and intimidating process of making a solid offer, and won, from a pool of seven bidders in 2017! And again, this year 2020, another seller’s market, Alexis helped us during CoVID-19 with several virtual walkthroughs before we found and purchased our lovely dream home that recently closed escrow. (We won from three offers). Alexis succeeded two for two in these seller’s markets! I think her secret sauce of success is decades of experience, vast real estate knowledge, plus her people, and negotiation skills. She has a gift with establishing warm rapport with the sellers and great relationships with many agents, and a large community of contractors for inspections and repair. Last but not least, she’s accessible, prompt at keeping us updated, and holding our hands when needed even though we’re not new at buying homes. It’s one of our biggest financial investments and we felt very fortunate to have Alexis working hard for us. Call her if you’re looking to buy in the Portland area!

I can't praise and thank Alexis enough in a review but it's worth a try. Alexis came highly recommended from a close friend (and real estate Agent) who thought she'd be the perfect person to sell my parent's home, and she absolutely was! She was not only very organized, professional and knowledgeable, she was incredibly thoughtful and empathetic with helping my parent's sell their home of 40+ years. Her support was invaluable at every step of the process, from connecting us to resources to get the home ready to sell, to developing a sales strategy, to marketing it and navigating multiple excellent offers. We'd highly recommend her to anyone given our experience.

Alexis is very organized and knowledgable about going about selling your home. Her negotiation skills are very good especially when it came to The repairs on your home. She saved us a great deal of money in that regard. I feel fortunate to have had her as our realtor. Peace of mind knowing your realtor is a pro is important.
