John McKay and Jordan Felton and the whole McKay team were excellent to work with. They were very insightful into the Portland market, and were great help in guiding our home buying journey. With John’s lived experience in Portland, his expertise was critical to finding the right home for us. Jordan’s keen eye for detail as well as big picture items helped guide us into making a knowledgeable and comfortable choice in the house we ended up buying. Without the McKay team our experience buying a home would have been insufferable. Hands down 10/10 would recommend.

We needed to submit an offer quickly and due to John’s diligence we didn’t lose the land! So thankful he acted fast! We have a gorgeous 40 acres now!

John McKay, Jordan Felton and their team helped me (in Tucson) and my son and his fiancé find a great home in Portland. I've dealt with a lot of realtors so I can recognize that these professionals were super competent, knowledgeable, patient and kind. Because they understood my kids were first time home buyers, they took a lot of extra time explaining every step, describing what to expect and anticipating questions. Their above and beyond service included excellent referrals to good mortgage brokers, insurance agents, inspectors and contractors. They turned a traumatic eviction situation into a positive, happy ending. I strenuously recommend them!

Better than all the rest - John and his team are incredible! They know what to look for, and look for it. We visited many houses prior to finding "the one". Every time the house we visited wouldn't work for us, John would blatantly say that rather than try to push us into a sale. He knows the market EXTREMELY well and is constantly educating himself on new trends and passing along that knowledge to the buyer. We couldn't have found our dream home without him and the rest of the McKay selling team.

John and his team have now helped us buy and sell a home, through Covid and a sometimes terrifying and unpredictable housing market they guided us to another successful deal. We can't say enough good things about John, he is the GOAT!

Great guy…the BEST agent. He absolutely nailed a sale and then a buy for me. He increased the surrounding market when he sold our home in inner southeast portland in 2021. When we were ready to buy a home about a year later, he and his team threw all their time at finding me a place in an area outside of Portland though still close. We found that house in one weekend and John negotiated the sale price down when everything was selling for way over the asking price. He’s an assassin.

We had met John through neighborhood and events and felt he really cared for our community. It was our first time selling a house so we needed a lot of patience and guidance. The same technical things that made our eyes glaze over, made his eyes light up. John and his team were always on the ball, answering questions and making the suggestions that made the experience really great and didn't leave us feeling pressured into any decisions. We needed some extra time in the house after the sale, we got it. We wanted just the right people to replace us in the neighborhood, we got it. We left town for a few days and John kept an eye on the house for us. Here is the icing on the cake... We were buying a house at the coast and choices were limited. John helped us find an agent at the coast and actually gave us the lead for the house we wound up buying!

When my husband and I decided to sell our home we choose John McKay and his team to assist. We were and still are grateful for the professionalism and care they took with the entire process. It took us two years to decide that we actually wanted to sell, John was in communication the entire time. He was patient and researched and answered every question under the sun we had for him. Once we decided to sell our home he made the process quick, easy and understandable. As far as a team that knows the market, knows customer service and knows each minutia detail of the process, this is the team to go with.

John and his team were great to work with in selling our house. Very efficient and fantastic effort.

I can't speak highly enough of John Mckay as my real estate agent. Selecting an agent to sell your house can be a bit tricky, to say I got lucky with John would be a huge understatement, a flyer at my door haha. But after reviewing his home sales in my neighborhood and positive reviews from others using his services, I felt he could be the man for the job. Right from the get go upon meeting John, I knew I made the right decision, extremely professional, knowledgeable of the neighborhood, comp values, detail orientated, honesty and bonus points for having a great personality. I was able to put together a list of small items to address in regards to repairs needed to be done, and cosmetic enhancements to give the house more curb appeal. With John's help I was able to trim the list, add a few issues I overlooked, and put together a plan to get these tasks accomplished. Due to the fact that I already had vacated the property, without John's help it would've been virtually impossible to get my list completed. He had contractors and handymen lined up, basically had an answer for any issue we faced. I was amazed at the results of all the projects we were able to complete before listing the property, all done in a timely and efficient manner. The listing and offer negotiations went even better, John was able to get quite a bit more money for my property than I could've ever imagined. Throughout the entire process, John was constantly in contact with me via texts/calls/emails, keeping me up to date and informed on any issue. He was also able to do this while still respecting my own work hours, knowing what issues needed immediate answers and what issues could be discussed on my free time in the evenings and on weekends. Selling a home or property can be a stressful endeavor, I am so glad I chose John Mckay to get the job done!

I highly recommend John and his excellent team for buying and selling homes. Recently͏ sold a home I bought with John 5 years ago. John genuinely cares about his clients, is extremely knowledgeable of the PDX and Vancouver markets, and gives great advice. Plus, he's an all around great guy and I loved working with everyone on his team. John and Renee, the listing agent, were highly effective and made selling my first home so easy. You won't regret working with John and his team.
