We decided to buy our first house with Harlan after a class he gave about real state (he was not the only realtor we met). He found a house perfect... read more for the two of us and negotiated a very good price. Our transaction included dealing with people oversees and Harlan was always positive when the sellers where slow getting the papers to the US. At the same time, he was putting the right amount of pressure to get the deal closed. We highly recommend that you go with him for one of your biggest purchases in life. He also comes with a network of very qualified and honest people. His inspector is great. Besides a great realtor he is a very nice person with a lot of energy!

Harlan was amazingly easy to work with, and a true professional! From the moment I first contacted him about listing my house, to the final closing, Harlan was always available... read more to keep the process on track and also to answer any questions I had. I was selling my house from across the country, and having a realtor that I could trust was imperative. Harlan handled everything quickly and professionally, from the initial estimate and comps, to finding contractors to do some minor work on the home, and even working with the tenants that were occupying the home during the sales process. I can not recommend him highly enough.

Harlan was the best realtor we could ask for when buying our home. He's honest to a fault, and very aggressive; two traits you definitely want in the craziness that... read more is the Portland real estate market. Sometimes he told us things that we didn't want to hear, but we're really glad he did because we now have a house we love! We placed two different bids, and won both of them! The bid we placed on the house we ended up buying wasn't even the highest offer, but Harlan had the due diligence to find out what we would need to win. Harlan got us all the concessions we asked for from the seller, and knew exactly what to ask for, even when we didn't. On top of everything, we got a great list of vendors; insurance, movers, home cleaning, roofers; for helping us *after* we moved! If you want someone who knows the Portland market, is going to move fast, and get you into a new home quickly, you can't get much better than Harlan!
