Homes By Crane
What can I say about the cranes, let me count the ways. Right from the start of our adventure in finding a home closer to all my children, I knew that we were going to be more than clients. We became friends. Tammie was so in tuned with what we were looking for and never once did she push us. I don’t believe she was just with us to make a buck or two. Every step of the way she was right there to see that we were taken care of. Great lady and her husband as well. Smooth sailing 😊

Tammie Crane is phenomenal. The sale of my 100+ yr. old house was not an easy process. Tammie juggled contractors, deadlines, listing and updates with grace and expertise. I can't recommend Tammie highly enough. A true professional for all your real estate needs.

From the very beginning, Tammie was incredibly professional, taking the time to truly understand our needs and preferences. She was always friendly, approachable, and ready to answer any question I had, no matter how small or what time of day.
Not only did Tammie make the entire process smooth and stress-free, but she was also an invaluable resource.

Her expertise and attention to detail were evident at every step.

I would happily recommend her to anyone, and I’m confident that anyone who works with her will have the same outstanding experience.

Tammie did a great job showing us around 20 different places in three days because we had only that short amount of time to find a home. She is attentive and always communicating. I recommend Tammie if you want an easy going experience! First time with her and hopefully not the last. Thank you Tammie!
BI
With it being our first home purchasing experience, we knew we would need a lot of help along the way and Tammie was definitely the person for the job! She always made every effort to be available for calls and texts so she could address all our questions. Her communication was great throughout the entire process and we never felt afraid to ask her anything, even if we felt the question was simple. She was also very accommodating to our tight house viewing schedule in which we only had a couple days to view over ten properties which was very helpful to us. Tammie always made sure we had the correct documents to sign and was quick at submitting them which made the process that much smoother for everyone. I would recommend her to anyone purchasing a new home for the first or the fifth time, she’s always very professional and it’s well known she takes great pride in her job.

Tammie is a well of experience. She knew what to expect throughout our selling and buying process. She is so client centered! She not only provided experience, but also was so helpful- do I need boxes, white towels, questions answered, housekeeping? Tammie has it covered. She's no-pressure and friendly. Mike is just as knowledgable; they are a great team!

This is the third time we have used Tammie as our realtor. In all three transactions, Tammie was very professional yet added a personal touch. She answered any of our questions which put us at ease.
She was in constant contact with us with giving us comparable house prices, to recommending a listing price for our home, to helping us stage the house, to giving us updates on showings, to working with the buyers realtor to make the sale go smooth and asking what she could do to help after the sale.
Tammie took care of almost everything so we could concentrate on packing our home. We highly recommend using Tammie and Homes by Crane

It was a great experience for my husband and I to have Tammie as our realtor to buy our first home. She was very personable and helped us discover what we wanted along the way. Took the time to answer our questions and was available to help search for our future home. Was an advocate with the seller’s agent for the things she knew we wanted to have done. An overall helpful experience through the complexity, stress and excitement of buying a new home. Thank you Tammie.

Tammie was great! She is very knowledgeable of the industry, market, and who to contact for repairing or updating a house. She smoothly facilitated each part of looking for our first home. She was patient and very attentive to provide suggestions and focused on our goals, needs, and attention to detail. Moreover, she went over and beyond to interact with the selling agent to coordinate, anticipate, and negotiate repairs because she listened to what we wanted from prior conversations. She offered full access to contacting her in the evenings and weekends by phone and in-person, which provided a sense of support and direction throughout the process.

Tammie did such a great job for us in selling our house. She is very personable, quick to answer phone calls, emails and text messages. She went out of her way to serve our every need. Tammie is very knowledgeable abut handling a house sale, from start to finish. I had great trust that she would do her very best in my difficult situation.
TA
Tammie did such a fantastic job that I really can’t say enough. My house sold in like a New York minute. She and her husband are both so very terrific. They are wonderful Godly Christian people and I personally believe you could not better people to help you sell your home. They go way beyond to help you before, during and after the sale so with them you know you are fully taken care of.

Tammie was great in helping me prepare my mother’s house to be sold. She explained everything that I needed to sign and was very understanding and encouraging throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend Tammie to my friends and others.
I have known Tammie for over 20 years and referred her to another friend who used her 2x. In 2019 my life changed significantly financially, personally, emotionally, and it was sheer chaos. I remodeled my house and knew I would have to sell it at some point because of the financial upkeep. We always stayed in touch from time-to-time and meeting for tea occasionally. Then life happened to me again unexpectedly, and I knew it was time to sell the house. Tammie was the only person I trusted to work with my attorneys, assisted me throughout the decision process and looked out for my best interest financially. She answered the hard questions, was there next to me every step of the way (even while she was dealing with some personal family health issues) and did not miss a step. She was always in good spirits which helped me not to worry. She even showed up for the final signing of papers - Yes!!! she sold the house in 1 day in this tough market. She encouraged my process, was sensitive to my financial issues, and dealt with those surprise repairs without it costing me even more dollars. She was always available to answer my questions or ease my stress. The relief of having someone on your side during such a life changing situation and process was a god send. I could not have done it without her; I would recommend Tammie Crane 110% to anyone selling or buying a house. She is an angel with wings. She has a kind sensitive heart because she cares about people and doing the right thing for them. Love her to death.

Tammie and Mike have served our needs in finding the best home possible within our financial parameters. As a couple, they make a great team, complementing each other's gifts. Tammie often communicated and worked on our behalf outside of hours, repeatedly going the extra mile, reflecting a genuine care for our best, regardless of personal profit. We highly recommend Tammie and Mike's services as real estate agents and friends.
From start to finish, it was done in no time, she listened with great intent and showed me the whole process from beginning to end. She also listened to and recommended scenarios. Which everyone has well if if this ....in selling homes. We all have questions and every single one was considered and answered.
It was a wonderful experience and was treated with professionalism unparalleled in this industry. Above and beyond expectation.

We had quite the journey selling and then buying our new home with Tammie. Through it all, she was there to encourage, protect and even fight for us when it became necessary. We would highly recommend her...and in fact, have already done so! Her care for her clients is evident. We're so glad she walked this journey with us!

I started working with Tammie 14 years ago when I purchased my first home. Her experience and patience (we must have looked at 100 homes over months...I was a very indecisive first-time buyer) was appreciated. When it came time to place an offer, Tammie was on my side and fought hard to make sure negotiations stayed in my court. I was very pleased at how it all turned out.
Over the years, Tammie stayed in touch with me sending me market updates, and occasionally giving me feedback on what I could do to bring value to my home. Her involvement did not end with the deal. I formed a long term alliance with her, and friendship!
Now 14 years later, it was time for me to move across the country, and time to put the house on the market. Tammie and I discussed the need to sell quickly (as I already had an accepted offer across the country, and a contingency to sell my Oregon home), and reviewing the comps, came to a fair price. She advised me appropriately, and my home sold in 12 days, with competing offers. The deal I got on my home was the best it could be with the buyer accepting the house "as is". It provided me the security to move forward on my other home purchase confidently.
Buying and selling a home is probably one of the most stressful moments in your life. It can feel like you have no control over what is happening with so many cogs moving at one time. But, Tammie got me through it and to the other side with ease. I am pleased to have had her working with me through the whole process.
I wholeheartedly recommend her to others, and frequently do to other looking for a reputable realtor with experience and a strong sense of the Portland metro market. I am just sad that now that I am out of the area, I won't be able to use her for future real estate events!

Had the difficult task of selling a beloved family home. Tammy Crane was recommended by a friend. Tammie was incredibly easy to work with. She was patient with our many questions and helped us get the best price possible. We were very satisfied and highly recommend her
EW
Tammie helped us sell our home of 10 years. She is very knowledgeable and experienced, thorough - and kind! She was accessible when we needed her and made sure we had all the information we needed along the way. She expertly priced and staged our house and it sold very rapidly. I would highly recommend her if you are selling your home.

This is the second house sale we did with Homes By Crane. In both cases, the process went very smooth. Tami was great to work with and responded very quickly with any questions we had. She also gave us frequent updates, which put us at ease. She has a great hand on the pulse of the market. We will be using Homes By Crane for any future transactions.
DF
Tammie and Mike were absolutely amazing. Our selling process was so easy and stress free. I would recommend them hands down!!!

We cannot thank Tammie and Mike enough for helping us with our sale and purchase!

Extremely organized in her presentation of her agency. In person she was professional and gave me a sense of confidence that she knew the market and how to best present our home to assure we sold quickly. She provided quick responses to my inquiries. She could see selling my home was difficult for me and was supportive during the process. We went the extra mile on everything. Would highly recommend her.

This is the second time we’ve worked with Mike and Tammie Crane, and the first time we’ve utilized their services to sell a home. Having never sold a home before, Tammie was extremely understanding and helpful in walking us through the process and addressing any of concerns. Throughout the staging and showing process, she kept us in the loop and we never felt like we weren’t sure what was going on. Tammie was able to secure an incredible offer for us on our home, and it was smooth sailing throughout the entire contingency period and closing process. We always felt that we could reach out with questions, and Tammie would always get back to us with answers quickly, no matter how small the issue was. I would recommend using Homes by Crane to anyone looking for a personalized experience that will also fetch top dollar for your home!
