We would highly recommend Rick Brainard to sell your home. He is on top of everything and keeps the sellers engaged in every aspect of the transaction. He stuck with us through out the process since our home was a larger country estate. Knowing the property is key in selling a larger estate and Rick was on top of it at all times. We would not only recommend Rick we would use him again in the future.
We worked with Nic Wilson on Rick's team and he was awesome. Super knowledgeable about the market, very responsive, and helped us sell for more than we thought we'd be able to. Can't recommend working with him enough!
Rick and his team were professional and very helpful. They were available for any questions or concerns and took good care of us during this transaction.
My wife and I worked with Nic Wilson both in selling our temporary townhouse and in finding our family's forever home in Portland. I could not say enough about Nic's help. He listened AND understood what we wanted so we only looked at homes that met our location, layout and budget criteria, which saved us a ton of time and anguish by not looking at homes that didn't fit us. He never pressured us or rushed us but was always ready to jump in when we needed his expertise. Nic was quick yet strategic in his counsel and was irreplaceable during the negotiation process. If you're looking for a home or looking to sell a home in the Portland-metro area, I highly recommend reaching out to Nic Wilson with the Laue Team. Your family and your wallet will be thankful you did.
When we first moved to Oregon we looked for months to find the right house. Per recommendation of a friend we switched realtors and started to work with Rick. Rick blew our socks off and we bought the first house he had shown us. Fast forward six years when it was time to sell the house, we had unlimited options of family and friends that are realtors but being very particular I wanted to use the best. Rick graciously agreed to help sell our home during a very busy time of the year. As expected, he is as good as it gets as a professional, and extremely responsive. We felt he truly listens to the client, dials in to their needs, and secured top dollar. Rick wasn't only vested in the process, but was vested in the experience and does things in a manner someone would that thinks long term. Would use Rick and his team 1,000 times over.
We were lucky to have Nic Wilson of the Laue Team help us sell and buy our home. Knowing I could trust Nic to manage the many details of the buying and selling process made for such a positive experience. His calm and cool approach was very appreciated and made negotiations easier. We are so happy with our move and our new house! We could not have done it without all the help from Nic and his great team. The excellent photos helped boost interest in our home with 8 offers in two days. The Laue Team worked to coordinate closing the sale of one home, and the buying of the new home all on the same business day. Every step we took through the selling and buying process was met with knowledge and ease from the Laue Team. Sending many thanks and 5 star ratings to Nic and Team Laue!
We worked with Rick Brainard and the Laue team 3 years ago in our move to Portland. Ricks negotiation skills were needed and impressive. So in selling this year came back to him working primarily with Nic Wilson and others on the team. The experience was outstanding. Initially we were worried if they knew the Portland market as well as some others who were physically located in Portland. In the end his market analysis was very accurate and much more so that that of another realtor we talked to. Customer service was outstanding, communication was ongoing, and Nic and the team were also fun to work with. We would definitely recommend the Laue team for buying or selling as we have done both with their assistance.
Nic Wilson along with Mary Watts and Debi Laue of the Laue Team are first class real estate professionals. They have the proper infrastructure in place to represent both buyers and sellers in this complicated market. They don't cut corners and they do things the right way which leads to the most efficient results. We look forward to working with Nic and the Laue Team again on our future real estate needs.
Rick Brainard helped me buy my house 4 years ago and he and his time, primarily Nic Wilson, helped me to sell it for a good profit this year. We ended up with 4 good offers , 2 were above asking price. Nic was actively selling it with about 6 open house in 3 months. He is an excellent agent and I will call Rick and Nic in the future and also will refer others
Rick was our agent to sell two and buy one home, and as we are leaving the area we are sad he can’t be our agent in our new state. He listens to your needs, he is prompt and responsive to questions or concerns, and he works to get your the best deal on all sides of the transaction. You can’t go wrong with Rick.
Debi Laue, Kat Granum, and the rest of the Laue team are above and beyond anything expected form a real estate team. There is no other team I would work with to sell or purchase a home. They have the expertise, kindness and assertiveness needed to make these things happen smoothly. They are a well oiled machine and I would recommend highly.
Rick helped us sell our home and buy a new home. From start to finish we had a great experience. We initially had an offer on our home that wasn’t what we were hoping to sell for, and Rick’s understanding of the local market helped us decide not to accept the low offer. Soon after we had a great offer that we accepted. Can’t really say enough to capture how happy we were with this entire team.
