I want to say thanks for you and your firm's professional handling of my recent townhouse sale in Bend, Oregon. Your firm was first class in all respects. You obtained an offer very shortly after it was listed. This offer was all cash, and escrow was closed within 20 days.
I would gladly recommend you personally and your firm for anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bend area.
Thank you again.

I highly recommend the Kromm team to anyone looking to buy or sell in Central Oregon. We actually found them through their YouTube channel while considering a move to Bend, which is genius because we already felt like we had a connection once we started working together. Shannon represented us as our buyer’s agent for the purchase of our new construction home and she worked so hard for us, had lots of knowledge about the entire process, as well as understood specifics to our particular builder.
We actually purchased the home from abroad and she helped make the whole process smooth and effortless on our end, got all of our questions answered, and did it all seamlessly even with our nine hour time difference.
I honestly cannot imagine having gone through that process without her. Her help was absolutely invaluable to us. They also left the sweetest gift basket for us and really went the extra mile by arranging a second floor cleaning so our newly mobile baby could crawl around the empty home while we wait for our international household goods shipment.
Thank you Shannon and John!
Finally relocating!

Jennifer is awesome! She's super accommodating and very friendly. I was super new to the area and had no knowledge of what was out there. She helped me navigate through all of my wants and needs for a house. As a first time home buyer, I gave Jen the difficult task of a "no wants" list - basically I told her that when we find the house I'll know. The only requirement was that I wanted to be a maximum 20 minutes from work. She found some great houses along the way and made it difficult to figure out what I really wanted. I just turned 25 and buying a house as a 24 yr old was very scary, but Jen made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. I made three offers, each on three different homes. She made negotiating a very understandable and comfortable process. I'm very grateful for her guidance and am so happy with my home. She's definitely someone I would work with again, but it won't be for a while since she found the perfect home for me!

We recently bought our house -- what a pleasure it has been to work with Mark Olsen to make this long-held dream come true!
Mark did a walk-through of the home with us and, from that stage on, was with us every step of the way. We were surprised and delighted at how he anticipated our needs and was often one step ahead! People often like to say they are "detailed-oriented" but Mark truly is the real deal; we were amazed at how he unfailingly circled back to address outstanding questions and issues. We can't say enough about how much we appreciated his professionalism & real estate knowledge, his prompt & thorough communication, his patience in explaining the process and answering our myriad questions, and his wonderfully cheerful spirit and sense of humor. Making an offer on a home and going through the inspection & negotiation process is a real nail-biter to be sure but, with Mark along with us for the ride, it was also fun!
Mark is a knowledgeable, great realtor to work with. We feel really fortunate and grateful to have met him!

Kim is an excellent, kind, and trustworthy realtor! She is a long time Bend resident who knows the neighborhoods and understands the needs of various clients who want to buy in Bend. I had a great experience with her; she recently helped me purchase my home this winter. I really appreciated that she was genuinely interested in finding me the home I wanted and could afford, and that she understood what my priorities were. I highly recommend her!

If you’re wanting two experts in the Bend area, look no further than John and Shannon! They look out for your best interests over just getting a sale for themselves. They don’t over complicate the buying and selling process. They truly go to bat for you and do the hard work without stressing you out with it. They are also great about being as involved or as hands off as you want which we appreciated! Not to mention how tuned into they market they are. Overall they were a great team and we will use them for all of our future real estate endeavors.
Happy home owners 2020

We have been fortunate to have had some great agents over the years but Kim Gilchrist absolutely stands out as the best real estate professional we have had the pleasure of working with. The market is extremely tight and she found a home for us that perfectly fit our (long) list of needs that hadn't even hit the market yet. We had to get our existing home on the market quickly and Kim helped setup all the needed vendors to get our home listed and showing at it's best so we got multiple offers then were able to choose the best of them. She anticipated our needs and would have problems solved along with the needed vendors lined up to resolve the issue. Multiple times we'd think "We need to lookin into (whatever issue)" and before we could ask, Kim would be calling us having anticipated the issue And already lining up a solution or two. She's extremely knowledgeable, proactive, and very likable so others in the industry enjoy working with her and are sure to keep her clients happy.
We highly recommend Kim, she's the best!

We loved working Jennifer! I was only sad we didn't get to work with her longer because we found and closed on a house so quickly with her. From our first conversation Jennifer was extremely warm, transparent, and easy to communicate with. She was able to easily work around our schedules and get us the information we needed fast in order to make informed decisions and negotiate quickly and effectively! Absolutely loved the experience and we would recommend her highly as an agent.

With the help of Jennifer, we purchased two real estate investment properties. We appreciated Jennifer's knowledge of the local market place. We found her to be professional, responsive and personable. We were happy to have Jennifer on our side during the negotiations, as her skill and knowledge led to a favorable outcome. We highly recommend Jennifer to assist in any real estate transaction.

Mark Olsen made our home purchase endeavor about as stress free as possible. Mark is extremely knowledge, patient, thorough, responsive and a quality person. Every step of the way he responded to our questions and concerns promptly and thoroughly, and when he took us out to look at homes it was an enjoyable experience. Mark had all the connections with reputable companies for inspections, repair work, insurance, etc., so we didn't have the burden of finding someone trustworthy when we were ready to purchase. Mark and MOhomes are a quality team you can trust to support and guide you through the entire experience. Mark Olsen of MOhomes is now our realtor for all future home sales/purchases, there's no reason for us to look further.
