Paris Group Realty

We are relatively new to Portland, and so when we were looking to purchase our first house, we asked my uncle a realtor in the Midwest - shout out to McInturf Realty to help us find a good realtor here. He found Claire and the rest was history. As we were new to this whole process and the city, Claire took the time to walk us through every step and answered every question about cost, neighborhoods, etc. She was super communicative and honest - she would show us any house we asked to see but also gave us information in a very straightforward way. She was also so fun to work with, and really tried to find us our dream home which she did within just a few months!. We loved working with Claire and would 100% recommend her for anyone buying a home.

Claire helped me and my husband get our first home together. She was kind and patient with us. Probably most importantly, Claire was 1 explicit and clear in her communication, 2 good at negotiating with the seller's realtor and 3 was willing to jump in when things were a little wild as expected in real estate with a fast close date. This being my first time buying, I didn't understand quite what a realtor's job was other than showing houses; I now see how critical having a kind, experienced, and skilled realtor was. We had a fast close date and some problems with the house at the last minute not Claire's fault!! Something was different in the final walkthrough versus the inspection, and we ran into a problem with our lender. Claire helped us get quotes for all necessary repairs and even thought ahead to get us a quote for the exact problem that ended up coming up at the very end, despite it not being a problem for the inspection water in the crawl space. We obviously wanted to buy the house, but that issue at the last minute would have caused us to back out had Claire not taken the initiative to proactively get a quote for it, possibly losing tens of thousands in earnest money. My husband is looking into selling his other property and if we go through with that, we will go with Claire!

I cannot express our gratitude and appreciation for Claire Paris and her team at Paris Group Realty. We started our search a year ago and Claire patiently stuck with us through this crazy real estate market. She answered EVERY single question we askedeven our kids questions! and looked at every house we went to, likely knowing some were not gonna work for our family. Her explanations were clear and understandable. On top of being solidly aware of the Portland real estate market, she is able to walk through a house and recognize repairs, give estimates of how much work would cost, and give advice on whether or not remodels or changes could be made. She was an excellent resource for advice on home repairs and remodels. Claire has an extensive list of vetted contractors and made many calls for us and we were able to schedule right thru her group for work to be done in our new home. Our purchase and subsequent sale of our old home happened very quickly and Claire and her team were on top of it! We had some worry during the selling negotiations of our old house, but Claire was strong and determined!! We cannot recommend Claire enough! She is solidly experienced, knowledgeable, extremely patient, kind, supportive, and tough when needs to be! We will definitely call Claire in the future if and when we move again! And, in the meantime, we will miss her!

Claire is truly remarkable! She is deeply knowledgeable, not only about real estate, but about everything associated with it from helping with connecting to a lender, gathering estimates for work, recommending service providers and facilitating interactions with all parties including the title company. There were numerous issues that arose in my house purchase, but Claire and her team were right there with me making sure everything lined up to successfully close. I cannot imagine pursuing any real estate activity without Claire. In addition to her competence, she is a genuinely kind and caring human being. She has superlative listening skills, manages to juggle all the balls without dropping anything and was able to talk me out of the tree I was in multiple times. I have SO much gratitude to Claire - she is simply the best!

Heather and her team were such a delight to work with. We worked with Heather and Paris Realty to purchase and sell our home, back to back. She was so easy and enjoyable to work with, extremely responsive, and coordinated the process seamlessly. We felt like she advocated for us every step of the way with our home purchase. She orchestrated contractors to repair our home for selling, easing our burden significantly. We highly recommend Paris Realty to anyone buying or selling their home.

We absolutely love the house that we live in. We are confident that we made the right decision at the right time. We are lucky we found you to help us with this HUGE milestone. Your professionalism, extensive knowledge, guidance, authentic kindness, and patience is still with us. We will not hesitate to keep in touch and recommend you. We love following you on Instagram and enjoy seeing your new listings and accomplishments. You deserve all things great and wonderful. Wishing you well. Wishing your team well.

I cannot say enough about how great Claire and everyone at Paris Group Realty were in helping me find the home of my dreams. Everyone I met at Paris Group was friendly, patient, and incredibly kind. They were responsive to the point that it felt like I was their only client, even though I know they were super busy. Client actually feels like the wrong word to describe my relationship with this team. Looking at houses with Claire felt more like looking at a place with a good friend more so than a realtor. Her advice and insight always felt like it was coming from a place of what was best for me, not what could get me to buy whatever property we were looking at. Claire became so familiar with my taste, she could often predict within a few minutes of entering a property what my reaction would be, and never once pushed me to move forward with a property I wasn't comfortable with. When some issues were identified with my dream property, Claire and the team at Paris Group snapped into action and quickly found me inspectors and contractors to help me assess what it would take to fix the issue, and then worked with the sellers to make it right. As someone new to the Portland area, Claire's amazing network of contacts made the entire process amazingly smooth from start to finish. If and when I am ever in the market to purchase a new home, Claire will be my first call, without a doubt. But I suspect she will already know since I get the sense that with Claire and everyone at Paris Group, the purchase of a home with them is just the beginning of the relationship, not the end. Thanks again to everyone to Claire and the whole Pairs Group team. This has been one of the best experiences of my life. :-

I worked with Claire for both buying and selling a condo and have nothing but good things to say. The selling experience was a bit more bumpy than the buying, and I wouldn't have wanted anyone other than Claire on my side. She really cared about and considered my circumstances and advocated for me when it mattered. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate in/around Portland!

Heather was the listing agent on a residential real estate transaction. It was an emotional sale and our expectations were high. I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. Heather is a serious professional. Her support team, stagers, and vendor referrals were really strong. We had our house market ready in 3 weeks with me being out of state, and it was just smooth. I was truly impressed and give Paris Group my highest recommendation and praise. Thank you so much Heather! So grateful for all you did.

Heather walked me through my first home purchase in the middle of one of the most challenging eras of Portland real estate. She was on top of every part of the process - from touring *dozens* of properties to somehow pulling inspections through in less than 3 days. I will 100% recommend her for any Portland home purchase!
