Testimonials

“KC was absolutely delightful to work with. I had been house hunting unsuccessfully for about two years before meeting her, and came in with a really specific wishlist for my first home. She struck the perfect balance of being warm yet professional, offered suggestions without being pushy, was knowledgeable about any curveball questions I threw at her, and gave insightful advice about things I hadn't even considered. The inspection period and weeks leading up to closing were stressful in myriad ways, and she was there for all of it. I think most importantly, she is one of the most upstanding and kind people I've ever met and I felt supported through the whole process. I'd highly recommend working with her.”

“KC has been so patient and responsive with us over the past year of looking for the right property for us. She is very communicative, asks good questions, gives articulate answers, and is all around responsible and reliable. She was also willing to tromp around in forests and other challenging terrain and hang out with our child while we tried to figure out property lines and brainstorm house fixes. Highly recommend KC.”

“If you’re looking for the best realtor, someone who you can trust - you’ve found her! I cannot recommend KC enough. I was a very clueless first time homebuyer, who basically woke up one morning and decided to buy a home, and KC literally made it happen. I was blown away by how knowledgeable she is, I was looking for a very specific[ally small] price range and homes under a specific program (SDC) and she knew all about it, and was able to show me multiple places that met the criteria when I had only really found one myself. She helped me consider things I had never thought of as we looked at properties. She walked me through every single step of the process, made sure I understood what was going on, made sure I understood things I was signing, etc. I was just in awe by how responsive, on top of it, detail oriented and thorough she was, every step of the way. She fought hard for me on important issues the seller was pushing back on, it seemed absolutely effortless on my side of things. In the end I ended up with a great deal on my dream home and I would do it a million times again with KC!”

“We had a remarkable experience working with KC to purchase our first home, even as long distance buyers. From our initial informative video call to closing day, KC was readily available, ensuring all of our questions and concerns were addressed promptly. Working with KC felt like working with a friend!

KC’s commitment to understanding our needs was evident in her thorough approach. She provided comprehensive videos of various properties and even went the extra mile to film the neighborhood surroundings, offering us valuable insights from afar. Additionally, KC’s keen eye for detail saved us from potentially purchasing a house that had a $40k flaw, showcasing KC’s dedication to our best interests. With KC’s guidance, patience, and expertise, we found the perfect home for our family, making our dream of homeownership a reality. We whole heartedly recommend KC to anyone seeking a reliable and skilled real estate professional.”

“We met KC when we were looking for a dream home in Vancouver. We had quite the list of what we wanted and really didn’t think we would find it for a long time. KC saw a listing that had just come on the market and immediately set up a showing. We went to look and were honestly in shock at how perfect it was! KC helped us write an offer that night and we went under contract. She was with us every step of the way and got us through some stressful moments with a positive and realistic outlook your entire time. Then, she turned around and helped us sell our two year old (nothing special about it) new build! She was relentless in getting it sold, she even mowed the lawn herself to get it ready for pictures. KC was awesome and has become a trusted friend!”

I enthusiastically recommend KC Heaney if you're in the market to buy or sell a house, or think you might be one day! She's tenacious, relationship-focused, and very well-versed in the Portland housing market. She really listened to what was important to us about our next house.

She establishes good working relationships with other agents, and proactively advocates for her clients. (Extremely helpful when you're in negotiations on repairs!) We ended up pivoting a few times and KC was always right there with us, patiently showing us the same houses multiple times so we could get a good feel. She's got a great network of lenders, inspectors and tradespeople, so we were able to get quick quotes while we were in contract, which helped in our negotiations.

We found a dreamboat of a house, and miraculously were able to see it four times (!). KC coached us to put together a great offer, which beat out the other offer, she lined up all the inspections and we closed in three weeks, thanks to her guidance navigating this ever-changing market. I hope I never move out of this house, but if I do I'll work with KC again in a heartbeat.

Wow, where to start? KC was our trusted real estate guide for over a year, showing us many listings, and shepherding us in the right direction - always listening to what we wanted and needed in our long list (schools, neighborhoods, # of bedrooms, types of house, etc. etc.) When we got impatient and almost settled, KC would gently ask questions that allowed us to realize we should wait for the perfect house - and we're so glad we did!

Once we found "the one", KC skillfully brokered our deal and guided us through the inspection process, calling in the best experts to ensure our 100+ year old house was solid. The true icing on the cake was that she got us a full price offer on selling our current home before it was even listed! While simultaneously buying and selling houses isn't always easy, KC truly pulled miracles and negotiated terms that made each transition seamless. We can't thank or recommend her enough for buying your perfect new home, and/or selling your current one. Thanks, KC!

We spent 8 weeks with another realty group before being referred to KC. We had NO IDEA what we were missing. She was strategic, competitive, compassionate, and always put us a step ahead of our competition. Through the entire process, KC was knowledgeable, professional, and honest, even when she had to tell us things we didn't want to hear. We could trust her completely. We can't thank her enough. We are moved in to our dream home, and it's 100% thanks to KC.

I have been struggling to buy a condo until I was introduced to KC Heaney.

KC really listened, even as I’m not a native English speaker. She explained every procedure, real estate terms that have been a stressful and difficult to me. She is a professional, detail oriented, knowledgeable and honest agent. She answered all my questions about the property or the neighborhood, and also reminded me something I wasn’t aware of.

One thing went above and beyond was that KC handled the process while I was out of town two weeks. KC understood I couldn’t cancel my travel plan, so she coordinated with the seller agent, title company and the HOA, and made the whole process smoothly – she gave me the keys right after I back to town for me to move in! I definitely love to collaborate with KC again, and highly recommend her to whoever is looking to buy or sell a home in Portland.

I would absolutely recommend KC to anyone. She was so patient, accommodating, and super responsive during our home buying process. Thank you KC! If I know of anyone looking for a realtor, you can be sure that I will be referring them to you.🙂

KC is an absolute pro and made our house buying process so much more relaxing than I expected. She had answers to our questions every step of the way. More importantly she really cared about finding a great fit for our growing family. KC is fun, kind, knowledgeable, gets back to you right away, and is great with negotiations. I'm so thankful she was our agent. We love our house. The whole process was a very positive experience thanks to her calm and enthusiastic nature, clear communication, and expertise in both the housing market and the Portland area.

KC was amazing to work with. She showed so much patience, knowledge and empathy in every step of such a life changing and stressful process. She was 100% responsive to the multitude of questions in a quick and thorough fashion. She clearly enjoys what she does and enjoys helping people find their dream homes. Thank you KC for all your time with us.

“My girlfriend and I were first-time homebuyers and we knew virtually nothing going into the process. We had been going to a few open houses, and decided (almost on a whim) to start getting serious about buying a home.

After meeting with a handful of realtors, we met with KC for coffee and immediately felt like we had found someone who was relatable, who really cared about our wants and needs, and was passionate and knowledgable about the world of real estate about which we knew so little. She helped us dive in head-first – it was a Sunday when we decided to get serious about buying a home (i.e: get pre-approved for a mortgage), and by Tuesday afternoon we had our first offer in. What's crazy is ... we almost got it! Our offer was an almost exact match with the winner, and we landed in backup position on an actual coin toss.

Over the next few weeks, KC worked tirelessly to help us figure out exactly what we wanted and what was important to us. She showed us (literally!) dozens of homes in the span of just a few weeks, and always maintained a remarkably cheerful disposition, especially since we were always late :) For every home we expressed interest in, KC would come back to us with a pretty thorough analysis of the pros and cons of the property to help guide our decision-making and was always there to talk through it with us. It was a wild ride, but we always felt that KC genuinely had our best interests in mind, all while maintaining a really high degree of professionalism.

Ultimately, we purchased a beautiful single family home in North Portland. It was our third offer, which in this market feels like a miracle. Looking back, it was busy, but honestly way easier than I expected. Given that we knew nothing about buying a home 2 months ago, that's probably a sign that we had an excellent support system :)

We are of course very excited to enter the next chapter of our lives, and we have KC to thank for that. Truly, thanks a million!”

”KC was a incredibly helpful and knowledgeable partner in my search for a house! Always available to answer questions and explain the process step by step. I always felt that KC had my best interests in mind and was constantly on the lookout for houses that fit my requirements. The closing process was also quick and painless and she was always willing to go over anything I needed. I can not recommend her more highly.”

“KC helped us find our dream home in the middle of an all-time wacky housing market. She's an absolute dream to work with!”

“Working with KC to purchase our first house was the best experience I could've hoped for in stepping into a high-stress, complex, and intimidating but ultimately exciting and rewarding process.

KC worked hard to ensure that we moved through the process of searching for, bidding on, and closing on a home feeling well-informed and advocated for. She was always available to answer our questions and remained incredibly responsive; was diligent at doing research and follow up where needed; and had great questions for us that helped guide us in making this significant decision and transaction.

From excitedly touring new homes and finding new prospects for our very specific criteria, to being flexible with our schedules and communicative across multiple platforms, to always having recommendations or knowing who to ask as we went about finding lenders, contractors, and other vendors/service providers – we were in good hands the whole way through. We knew we were choosing to buy in an extremely competitive market, and KC’s approach to working thoughtfully and compassionately with us as clients always made us feel at ease and that we would find the right place to call home.

KC is an active and caring realtor to work with that brings a lot of heart and passion to her work. We're so delighted with the house we now get to call our home, and KC made this an incredibly smooth and clear journey. We highly recommend working with her!”
