Debra was amazing to work with. She is an excellent listener and was very helpful through the whole inspection process and finalizing the sale. We felt super supported and know we landed in a home that we will love and that works for us financially. We highly recommend!!

T.H.E. B.E.S.T.!!!!! We New Yorkers just bought a home in Portland, OR–a purchase achieved mostly via technology–with the extraordinary assistance of Debra Hornbecker. Debra’s gigantic warmth is communicated in every text and phone call; her thoughtful counsel helped us make a successful offer; her vast knowledge guided us to excellent contractors. (Debra’s name opens doors–the busiest contractors respond immediately when they hear we come via Debra’s recommendation.) By the time we came to Portland, we felt we were coming to see a dear friend in person. We closed swiftly and calmly. without a hitch. We cannot say enough happy things about the wondrous Debra Hornbecker, who helped smoothly usher in our new life in an exquisite Portland home.

Debra was amazing. She was on top of everything and informed us along the way about everything we needed to be doing. Our pictures and video were the best I have seen! The experience was amazing and we sold our house for $140k over asking! I highly recommend Debra.
