Client Reviews

Pam and Bruce are THE BEST realty team I’ve ever worked with. I’ve purchased and sold homes in Florida, New York and California and, now, with their caring help, I found my ideal home in Portland, OR. Why are they so great? They listen, and they truly get to know their clients so that when they send or take you to view listings, you can be sure you’re spending your searching time productively. After I worked unsuccessfully with another Portland realtor for several months, I was thrilled to be referred to YogaBug Realty. With their focused attention, I found and moved into my perfect home within two months.

Merna- Buyer

Pam was amazing in helping me out. From an initial consultation and advice on a home I was looking to purchase, which with her help, realized it was not the best deal. To finding the right place, which I did get. Guiding me through negotiation, inspection and purchase, she was looking out for my interest 100%. Making what seemed a daunting task, an easy one. Pointing out things, I would have missed on my own. Knowledgeable, friendly and easy to keep in touch with, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to buy a home with.

Kenneth – Buyer

We just used Yogabug to purchase our first home and we are so glad that we did! We had heard horror stories about buying in the Portland market and so we were nervous to see what we could actually afford and get. Pam and Bruce were wonderful. They took us through each step clearly, Pam was super quick to respond anytime we had a question. We ended up with an awesome house that we love just in time for our first baby who arrives in January. One of the things that I love about working with yogabug is that she was the perfect combo for us, my wife is a yoga teacher and I am from the east coast so we wanted someone that understood where we were both coming from and that would give it to us straight. If you need an agent call Pam, she will take care of you!
