Why Work With Us?

Brenda greatly relieved the stress of buying a home from a long distance. I had only 2 days to conduct my home search. After visiting several Open Houses on Sunday, Brenda was the only Realtor to offer to take me to see homes the following day. On Monday morning she had a packet of data sheets for the 8 homes I had previously identified on the web and she had made arrangements for us to see each one. Turns out I didn't buy any of those. Based on what Brenda knew about my preferences and my reaction to the homes we viewed, she said, "I have to take you to see the homes in this other neighborhood." That is where I bought my house. Since I was long distance from Bend, Brenda negotiated with the seller (much to my advantage) and kept me apprised of the status throughout the negotiating and subsequent closing processes. Brenda is the ultimate reality broker, wing-man. She is extremely organized, communicative, and will have your back every step of the way.

I chose to work with Brenda because she has a super successful sales record with many years of experience.  I felt confident she would market my property very effectively. I thought it might take several months for the house to be sold but wow! Was I surprised when she brought me a terrific offer in two days! She represented me extremely well and made sure the transaction went smoothly. So smoothly in fact we were able to have an early close! Thank you so much Brenda!

If you want your house sold quickly and your transaction to go smoothly, you choose Brenda.

We first met Brenda when we were attempting to sell our home as a For Sale by Owner. We liked her fresh and open approach.  When we were ready to list our home, we decided to go with her as our realtor - despite having three very close friends who are realtors - because of her professionalism!  Once Brenda was on board as a Realtor we were able to get a buyer within a week! She educated us throughout the whole process and was the consummate communicator, and she definitely knows how to use the technological tools!

We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone! We would also state that this was definitely ‘money well spent’. Our experience as FSBO is that it is complicated and frustrating. Brenda helped secure a swift and firm sale that stayed on course.  Brenda goes beyond what is expected at every turn! She has a bubbly and fun personality...and a phenomenal understanding of the market and business! Those things combined made her such a great person to work with.... and someone we will use again in the future! 

Brenda assisted in making what could have been a nightmare, turn into a success. Late in the game we found out there was a lien on the property, non-disclosed. The items the sellers agreed to fix, turned out did not happen and we would not have known if it wasn't for Brenda. We ended up renting back to the sellers for a bit of time because they needed help during the process. This purchase was over the Christmas holiday and into the new year, and I was out of town. Everything worked out for both buyers and sellers because of Brenda's ability to follow through, her ability to care for all, and ensuring that all the paperwork was done correctly. She was a voice of reason, fair, and honest. When both buyers and sellers leave the deal happy and to success, there is no better way to buy a home (or sell). I highly recommend Brenda Menzel! 

Brenda’s experience and knowledge enabled my husband and I to navigate through a complex transaction. Brenda was able to advise, inform and guide. Additionally, communication and access to the resources needed to tend to items on the transaction were wonderful.
