Client Comments

Jeff and Rebecca H.

I first worked with Lynne Grigsby about three years ago when she showed me a house for rent. She made such an impression on me, that I sought her out when we were ready to buy a house two years later. I consider myself a difficult client. That is because I have certain health issues and those issues prevent me from being around high frequency electronics and cell towers. Trying to find a home three miles from a cell tower is almost impossible, but Lynne learned my method of mapping cell towers to houses, which was a complicated process. I consider that a step above and beyond the regular duties of a realtor! She also took all of my other requirements into consideration and they were not easy to work around. Lynne is very conscientious and thinks of details that I may have missed. She showed us some great properties in nice neighborhoods, all while working around the cell tower issue. She was easy to work with and so nice! We are very happy with the purchase of our new home! She even helped me find a good place to put a bathroom in the new house. She's great with things like that. I would definitely use Lynne and Windermere Realty Trust again for our realty needs - whether buying or selling! Also, I feel like I don't just have a realtor, I have a friend for life! She really is that great!

Lynne went above and beyond! When I had the wrong date for the movers to show up, I called her from our new home in Washington and she was there in 10 minutes to let them in. She knows the market and who to go to for "last minute fixes"! She held several open houses and one of them turned out to come up with the accepted offer. Perfect.

We discovered Lynne through a friend. We setup a meeting to see if it would be a good fit and were impressed right out the gate. She took us around to see different types of houses to explore our criteria and priorities. Her enthusiasm was contagious and we knew right away that we wanted to work with her. We showed her some listings we found and she showed us more that she thought would interest us, such as close by busy streets and things we'd told her were important to us. Even if it'd been a while since we'd mentioned them, Lynne paid attention and remembered everything we wanted.
It only took a few weekends before we found our PERFECT house. Lynne helped us through all the negotiations, making sure we had as much information as possible and that everything was our decision. We never felt pressured. She suggested great home inspectors and other contractors we needed to find. We are still in contact and know that she's there even though we're situated and settled in our home. Lynne was and is there for us every step of the way!

Lynne Grigsby was the perfect realtor for us. She was in tune with both of us as we organized our lives to leave our home of 44 years. Lynne had to deal with our differing emotions, needs, and expectations, and she did it like the expert and sensitive person she is! One of us was excited about moving and downsizing and the other was, while wanting to do it, finding it difficult to choose what to take and what leave behind. Through it all Lynne was by our sides, recognizing our feelings and guiding us along the path of selling our home. We could go on and on about what a fantastic realtor Lynne is. Suffice it to say that in our experience and opinion realtors don’t come any better than Lynne Grigsby.

I have to tell you of our experience with Lynne! My wife and I met Lynne about 8 years ago when she helped us buy our house here in Portland. She was referred to us by a local, and she showed us all the different areas in Portland, and how they were all different from each other and why. When we finally settled on the Alberta Arts area, we were driving around doing comparisons and really getting an education of the market, when I saw it... "Lynne! -pull over!" This was the house I wanted to live in. Absolutey, positively, this was it! Lynne nicely said, "Well, OK, -it's not for sale, but I'll go and knock on the door and see what we can do..." Lynne was cautiously diligent, and a few months later, we were in that house. I think anyone else would have had the door slammed in their face. We feel very lucky to have met her, and we are still friends today!

Lynne was delightful to work with. Her enthusiasm and willingness to be available was impressive. She made us very respectful of how much is required of realtors. Throughout the entire process of finding the appropriate home, having it inspected, monitoring the repairs, referring competent repair workers, and finishing the paperwork, she was attentive and professional. We are very pleased with her abilites and gratful for her assistance.

We had a wonderful experience working with Lynne; she knew exactly what we wanted and needed, and found us a perfect home! She was always quick to respond to our questions/concerns and always with a smile on her face, even after we closed and we had follow up questions. We would definitely use her again.

My wife and I were new to Portland and had very little knowledge of the neighborhoods. Lynne not only knows the area well, but she talked with us to find out what our likes/dislikes were so that she could help guide us to the right fit for our new home. Lynne was responsive and respectful to our needs. She guided us to what fit our needs, not her idea of what she thought she should buy. We looked at dozens of homes; Lynne was with us every step of the way. Her energy and enthusiasm was the same on the first house visit as it was on the last. Not only did Lynne help us find a great house, she helped us learn about Portland. Recommending restuarants, local attractions, and the businesses/services we needed to begin our life in Portland. If we ever move we will call Lynne--she is not only a professional, she is now our friend.

Lynne persevered to complete the sale of a fabulous home, a win/win for buyer and seller. She made practical recommendations about improvements and repairs to make during the selling process and staging. She worked with the reality of time and energy available. There were paperwork hurdles to overcome and back and forth offers, which she stuck with to the end. Lynne was caring, patient, and diligent in her efforts to sell this home in a tough economy and market. She helped schedule a closing date that was feasible for the seller. She followed through, dropped by to see how things were going and what could be done to keep things moving along. Her assistance made the sale possible.

I worked with Lynn Grisby for several months in searching to find my first home. She was not only very patient but educated me in key areas I needed to learn in looking for "my" home. That included neighborhood, styles, colors, ease of location, and much, much more. I not only learned a lot, I had a lot of fun with her. She is very, very knowledgeable and has a very keen eye for detail and can "picture" lots of things or what could be with a home. She is very professional but also works with heart, which is very important to me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to sale or buy and someone who works very hard, knowledgeable and will tell you quite honestly about what you need to know.

Unlike some other agents we have worked with in the past, Lynne really listened to us and worked to find homes that fit our requirements. We would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Theresa

Lynne was extremely patient with us and never made us feel rushed about making decisions. She’s also a warm, fun person to be around. I loved sitting down over a cup of coffee with her and reviewing things. She listened to our needs and found us a great house. She did her homework reviewing listings and only showed us homes that fit our criteria. She also made listing our house a breeze. Everything went so well. Purchasing from OpenDoor would not have been my first choice, but that had nothing to do with Lynne. She hung in there on our behalf and we have a fabulous one-level home in a delightful neighborhood. She is a great realtor with a wonderful eye for important property details.

Lynne Grigsby helped us sell our mom’s townhouse in the fall of 2022. Lynne is very knowledgeable about the market and helped us to price the property to sell quickly. Lynne is dedicated, conscientious, creative, caring and did a great job for us. She went above and beyond to make the transaction go smoothly for all concerned. I have known Lynne for a long time and know she is a woman of integrity. I highly recommend her for your real estate needs.
