Testimonials


"I just want to tell you how much Kris helped us and how professional she was throughout the whole experience. The whole experience here in Oregon was extremely professional and smooth. Kris Burley helped us out every step of the way. I truly believe most realtors would have given up on us and chalked us up to "Lookers". She stayed with us and assisted us in so many ways over and above the call of duty. We just want to make sure that Hasson knows how great an experience we had with Kris. She is totally the very best in our opinion. Thanks for all the great help." Susan and Patrick

"We decided to have Dwight represent us for the sale of our home, and due to the tight time frame, we had to close on our new home (also represented by Dwight). We are so glad we did! As the inevitable challenges arose, Dwight and team rose to the challenges, every one of them. In retrospect, we couldn't have achieved the rapid sale and close on our homes without them! We would recommend Dwight to anyone in this area who wants a seasoned professional team on their side." John and Cindy

"We would highly recommend your team to anyone we know looking to buy and/or sell their home. You listened to our needs, addressed them, and helped us sail through a very stressful time. I personally enjoyed working with all of you. Thank you for helping us find a wonderful home to raise our family in." Gordon and Theresa

"We would highly recommend your team to anyone we know looking to buy and/or sell their home. You listened to our needs, addressed them, and helped us sail through a very stressful time.

"We were very pleased with the professionalism and diligence of the entire Schwab team, especially in a difficult market. We would not hesitate to recommend them to our friends and neighbors. Thank you!" Larry & Connie

"When we asked our old neighbors for any advice they had on how to 'downsize' successfully, the one piece of advice they gave us was to hire Dwight. I think that it was the best advice we got and we will not hesitate to give that same advice to others. Dwight coached us through the whole process and is an absolute professional. The house sold very quickly and this introduced other challenges which Dwight and his team helped us with. Kacey was absolutely wonderful through the whole closing process. She communicated with me regularly and anticipated my questions, often answering them before I even had a chance to ask. This is an exciting time for us but it is stressful at the same time. You made the 'home sale' part of our grand plan really painless." Larry and Kay

"Dwight and team are very professional and fit our values very well. If and when we have another real estate transaction, we will not hesitate to use Dwight and his team. Thanks for a job well done..." Jack and Joan

Your printed materials far excel the others in the area. The beautiful photos of the pond were above and beyond. Loved your website; it's informational and imaginative. The sale of my home came at a stressful time for me. I so appreciated Dwight's no nonsense, take charge attitude. It was obvious his style was based firmly in the marketing skills. His team, Kris and Lisa, worked to reduce my anxiety which was a gift to me. The best thing was that I always had total confidence in the entire team!" Marianne

My calls were always returned immediately after leaving a voice mail." Stephen and Cynthia

She was always cheerful, gracious and helpful. We even managed to stay in touch while cruising in Europe!" Mike and Brenda

"Angela and I would like to thank you for your excellent representation when selling our home in Lake Oswego. Your advice on pricing and timing was perfect.

Starting with the sale of my house where you orchestrated everything to get it spiffed up from the inside projects to the outside landscaping, Internet exposure and advertising in periodicals and magazines. I also appreciated your assistance after the sale with tidying up the house. The help you, as well as your team, provided on the purchase of my new home was also incredible. You helped with the improvements that needed to be done on my new home and the various contact I have made through your have proved to be invaluable. This was my first experience in moving into a new house by myself and I was quite overwhelmed by all there was to do. Your suggestions and ideas on decorating and repairs were very helpful. I felt that I had definitely gone to an expert. I was very impressed that no matter how small a questions or problem you took care of it." "Every experience that I have had with you has been timely. You seem to know exactly what needs to be done and do it. You certainly went out of your way to make my part in all these transactions as painless as possible.

I would highly recommend you without reservation." Dr. William

"We recently sold a home out of state in preparation to return to Portland, Oregon. We first learned of Dwight Schwab and the Hasson Company while searching for a home online. We were introduced to Dwight's Buyers Agent, Kris Burley, when we arrived in Portland to see some of the homes we liked on their website. Kris not only found us the perfect home; she served as the person who coordinated the whole process from inspection to the painters at the close of escrow. Being out of state was never an issue for Kris, she was in touch daily and we never had a worry. This was our most enjoyable home buying experience and we will recommend the Schwab Team to anyone wanting to buy or sell a home." Shean

"Your efforts, knowledge of the market place and response to prospective home buyers was nothing short of exceptional. It also became quickly apparent that you are admired and respected by other realtors…Prior to contacting you, a builder described you as the "best realtor in the area." Based on our experience, we wholeheartedly agree." Beti and Del

"Dwight was a perfect guide through this process. He had the correct answer every step of the way. He and his team are real pros." John

We were impressed with the professionalism shown by yourself and your staff in responding to our questions and your help in the negotiations and sale closing. It is said that the ultimate sale is when both the buyer and the seller are satisfied with the transaction with no regrets. I believe this to be the case with your sale of our home." Gordon and Ruth

"My husband and I found Dwight Schwab and his team at the Hasson Company Realtors to be extremely knowledgeable, friendly, easy to work with and especially helpful in explaining any aspect which we were not familiar. During our recent move, we felt as though he was truly working for our best interest. I have already recommended Dwight and his staff to family members and would do so for anyone else who may be searching for a home. We appreciate and heartily praise both he and his staff's professionalism." The Schou's

"Dwight has a handle on real estate values in our surrounding area. He knew what was comparable, what had sold, what we should expect, and what the market was doing. Dwight's team kept us updated through the phone, written communication, and copies of newspaper and magazine ads. Dwight always got back to any phone message we left in a very timely matter. Dwight's honesty, work ethic, knowledge of market values, and follow through all measured up…we were very pleased with the results in selling our home." Ken and Carol

"I will use Dwight again! (He) always kept us informed (on our transaction)! Rodger

Dana and I want to thank you for the professional approach used to sell our home over the last few months.

You have much patience when dealing with numerous counteroffers and Key Corp's relocation company. Hope all is well in the great Northwest. Best regards, Eric and Dana

This note is to express our appreciation for all your help during our process of buying and selling a home. We found you very accommodating and wonderfully customer oriented.

The services Dwight provided went beyond my expectations from scheduling to follow through. He was extremely patient and guided me through making many good decisions. Working with Dwight was a really positive experience. Renee

Dwight's team was courteous, prompt and terrific! Our calls were always returned quickly and we were really impressed when a team member we had not yet met was familiar with our situation. The marketing information he provided for us prepared us in advance to our sale and was carried out to our expectations. Bill and Cheryl

Dwight and his team were "top notch" professionals from the sale of our home to the purchase of the next. They did a great job of communicating in all aspects of our sale. Todd and Marcie

Thanks Dwight for doing such an excellent job. We appreciate your professionalism and integrity. Todd and Heather

Dear Dwight, We owe you many, many thanks for the wonderful assistance you gave us as we sold our home in Lake Oswego and relocated to Seattle. These words say everything: "Sold in six days at 97% of the list price!" The careful guidance you and your staff, Lisa and Anne, gave us made that result possible. One would expect that selling ones home after twenty-five happy years would be a very stressful process. Thanks to your guidance and help each step was accomplished as quickly, efficiently and painlessly as one could hope for. Mary & Bruce

Dear Dwight: Both Shauri and I would like to sincerely thank you for the assistance in discovering and purchasing our lot in Thompson Highlands. Your insightful, comprehensive, and "no BS" knowledge of the Portland real estate market was extremely helpful in providing us with the market knowledge we needed to make an educated decision on our future home site. And, we especially appreciated your professionalism, courtesy, and good sense of humor. We look forward to getting together with you for lunch (hopefully something better than a McDonald's drive-thru) on our next visit to Portland. Thanks again. Stanley and Shauri

Dear Dwight: Throughout the process of listing and selling our home we felt we were working with the best team around. Your knowledge of homes in our area, the climate of the Real Estate market, and the efficiency of your team made us feel at ease and confident about the decisions we were making. Thanks for everything! Alden and Linda

Dwight, Jim and I would like to thank you, Anne, and Lisa for all of your efforts during the recent sale of our home on Riverknoll Court. Your professionalism, attention to detail, and knowledge of the Real Estate climate in West Linn made the transaction effortless for us. Thanks Again, Ellen

Mr. Michael Hasson, The Hasson Company Dear Mike: Marguerite and I wanted to write to you to let you know what an outstanding sales associate Dwight Schwab is. Our praise is not easily earned; both Marguerite and I sold residential real estate quite successfully in the 1970s and have a thorough understanding of the business. We interviewed several top agents at different firms in order to select someone to sell our home. After those interviews, Dwight stood out as the agent with the best "feel" for our needs. He prepared a thorough market analysis of our home in Harting Farms, gave us his assessment of interest rates and where they were headed, and presented his action plan in writing. And he strongly urged we follow every aspect of his plan. We selected Dwight and followed his advice. The result was a sale the first week our house was listed. This was in the context of a steadily weakening luxury home market. But the real satisfaction occurred during the sales negotiations and after the sale. Dwight recommended several changes to the offer which significantly strengthened the deal without offending the buyer. And he then kept us informed every step of the way as the transaction moved toward closing. I know and have made acquaintance with many, many people in the residential real estate business. But it is without hesitation that I will recommend only Dwight Schwab to any potential buyer or seller of residential real estate. His painstakingly thorough handling of our sale and his completely professional approach to his business was a delight to be a part of. You are blessed to have such a fine individual on your staff. Rick

Dear Dwight, Now that things have settled down a little from my move, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for all your help. Your professionalism and efficiency were greatly appreciated. You are definitely a full service realtor. Starting with the sale of my house where you orchestrated everything to get it spiffed up from the inside projects to the outside landscaping, internet exposure and advertising in periodicals and magazines. I also appreciated your assistance after the sale with tidying up the house and even storing some odds and ends at your office for several months. The help you, as well as your associates, Holly Ingram and Anne Ballin, provided on the purchase of my new home was also incredible. You helped with the improvements that needed to be done on my new home and the various contacts I have made through you have proved to be invaluable.

Dear Dwight, We want to thank you, Anne, Holly and Scott for your recent help in selling our home on Brookhurst Drive.
