Carrie is an awesome agent and a great person to work with! She helped us get our first house in the crazy COVID market meeting all our criteria. Carrie and Carolyn made sure they understood our criteria and needs at the very beginning. Carrie was always available and patient in answering all of our questions as well as offered us great advice during the entire process. I would definitely recommend Carrie and the Carolyn Hoty team for your house buying needs.

If you want to buy or sell a house in Portland, OR area, don't hesitate to choose Carolyn Hoty as an agent. She and her team did an exceptionally good job in selling our Portland rental through a 1031 exchange and we are sure that she is as dedicated and professional when representing a buyer.

We were referred to Carolyn's team through a coworker. As first time home buyers, the process just seemed so complex and daunting but Carolyn, Garrett and Juha made the whole process easy to follow, understand and stress-free! I definitely want to give a special shout-out to Garrett because he was always so wonderful, accommodating and he always made sure to answer all of our questions. We truly cannot express how amazing the entire team was with our first-time home buying experience. Their expertise, responsiveness, & personable nature made working with them awesome and it made us feel confident

The whole Carolyn Hoty Team has been wonderful to work with. They really love what the do and are such professionals every step of the process. I have learned so much over the last couple years, and just appreciate the time they put into their craft. I sold three properties and just finished closing on an exchange purchase with this team. There is nothing to big to stop a sell from going though. The advise I received to sell our homes really paid off as well! We did minor upgrades to give the house major presents and curb appeal. And staging really went a long ways as far as how many people appreciated

Carolyn and her team used their expertise to sell our primary residence and a rental property in the Portland area during a pandemic! Who does that? They accomplished this with a broad knowledge base coupled with experience. One of their strengths is exceptional communication during the process. They were responsive to questions and clearly had a wide range of expertise to refer to as we had a few hiccups in one sale due to the pandemic and the fires. We completely trusted this team and highly recommend them. They were always encouraging even when it got difficult. Personable, reliable and thorough
