Cali was the perfect choice for our first time home buying! She walked us through the whole process patiently and was always prompt, organized and patient. She is a trustworthy person and we would choose her again as our agent if we start looking for a new home!
Calisa was so great. She understood us, our lifestyle, and what we were looking for in our first home. Same was flexible with her weekends and evenings and checked in often to answer any of our questions, and as first time home buyer we had a lot of questions. She is also down to earth and so kind!
Calisa was a great agent, as a first time home buyer she made the process very easy to understand. I appreciate her honesty of viewpoints on homes we toured and she really listened to my wants and needs throughout the process.
We had a wonderful experience working with Cali and would recommend her to anyone. She was patient and thoughtful in guiding us through everything we needed to know while we were new to the Portland area and as first time home buyers. Cali is extremely knowledgeable and honest about the realities of buying a home in a challenging market. She educated us on the process, how longs things could take and what to be prepared for, while maintaining a positive and motivating search environment! Cali was so quick to respond about any questions or properties we wanted to see, making a viewing work no matter the logistics. She was a powerhouse support during our inspection period and kept us organized and feeling level headed. Couldn't thank you enough, Cali :)
Cali was an amazing realtor, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, communicative, always polite and happy to go above and beyond for us, and was always on time. Being new to the area, her expertise and guidance were invaluable in our home shopping process. Not only did she go above and beyond during the home search and buying process, but on closing day she gave us a great little gift basket full of local snacks and treats. Most realtors would probably stop being so helpful and kind after they've already received their paycheck, but Cali continued to support and help us after closing with additional questions we had for the builder. Words alone cannot express how grateful we are to have worked with her. The next house we buy in the Portland area will, without a doubt, be with Cali's help.
As first-time buyers, Cali was patient, understanding, and made us feel comfortable every step of the buying process. She helped educate us on terms, timelines, and what to expect at each phase. She went above and beyond whenever we hit a snag or obstacle in our search as well as in the inspection and transaction phases. In previous encounters, we've had hesitations on how honest or sincere a realtor was -- but not with Cali. She was transparent and while still remaining kind, and really felt like she was on our side. We successfully found a home in the first weekend house hunting with her, and though it was an overwhelming experience -- we are so glad we went through it with Cali! Hands down would recommend Cali over and over again. Thank you Cali for your hard work and efforts in getting us our first place to call home.

Cali was SO great to work with! We were relocating from Texas during what felt like a crazy time in the market and we were so glad to have Cali to partner with during it. She was so easy to work with and made the whole process enjoyable from the showings to closing. Cali was very responsive, attentive to the little details, and listened to all the inputs we were looking for in a home. We really appreciated all the research she did behind the scenes and being patient answering all our many questions. We’d happily recommend Cali to anyone looking for a new home!

We experienced firsthand how big of a difference your agent makes in this market. Cali helped us win twice while we’ve sadly watched our friends have to drop out. When we didn’t think it was possible for us, she remained determined and optimistic. She was our cheerleader when we had doubts, our coach when we needed a plan, and our friend on many weekends touring houses. Cali is the definition of going above and beyond. Texts never went a few minutes without a response, she wasn’t afraid to call other agents over and over until we got an answer, she coordinated multiple subcontractors on a tight timeline, and even helped us get to know our new city. She knows home values and strategies for the market, which helped us make a financially responsible decision. She listens to the details about how you live and understands how that translates into a home. She even had a knack for picking out our favorites better than we could! Her dependability and organization helped us feel the kind of confidence that let us rest at night, because we knew she always had us taken care of. What a gift that is in this market especially! To win, you need someone who isn’t scared to get bold and assertive when the time comes. She fought so hard for us and advocated for our needs, building relationships with other agents along the way that ultimately helped us get our home. She does this while at the same time being the lovely person that she is, helping us laugh during times of high stress. She made sure we had what we needed to feel confident every step of the way. We appreciated her ethics and always knew she had our long-term interests in mind. What makes her special is that beyond being someone who has clearly found her calling in real estate, she cares so much about what home means and how precious it is to her clients’ livelihood and happiness. Your dream of homeownership is in capable and caring hands with Cali. You’ll even have fun along the way!

I am new to the Portland Metro area, and after monitoring the market from my old location for 4+ months, I was a bit worried how I would secure a new home matching my specifications in the current low-inventory, high-demand market. Cali stayed in contact with me prior to my arrival, sending encouraging messages during my transition of selling a home in another state and moving to Oregon. The day after I arrived, we hit the ground running with showings the next two days. Although the properties I'd scouted online did not fit my needs, Cali used this time to get a true sense of exactly what I was looking for. That same week, she learned of a promising listing coming to the market in a couple of days. It checked all of the boxes that I was looking for, and after Cali's help negotiating, I was under contract one week after my arrival. My closing was today, and I have to say that Cali was there every step of the way! I asked a lot (too many?) questions, and she was patient and thorough, repeatedly easing the stresses of the transactions with helpful clarifications. I'm so thankful that Cali Reis was my agent!
