Geist & Associates is a locally owned and operated real estate appraisal company that has been in business for over 20 years. Our area of emphasis is single family homes, condos, townhouses and 2-4 unit income properties located in the tri-county area of Portland Oregon. We have appraised newly built homes, existing structures, homes with additions being added, or remodeling projects taking place. But in all cases, the purpose of the appraisal is to determine the market value of the property. Since lenders typically determine their own appraisers I would be the most help for estates, divorces, determining a market value before putting a home on the market for sale. In divorces and estates, we may end up providing a current value and a 2nd value that is from the past. I

"He came out to the property within a few days of the request. It is a small place, less than 1000 square feet, not very complicated. After 3 and a half weeks, and multiple failed promises, I have no report. I texted him that I was going to get another appraiser, and his response was sorry, and good luck out there. I am kicking myself for having squandered so much time with this guy. The other good reviews on this site really led me wrong."

We are proud of our exceptional real estate services to buyers and sellers in the market.

With offices in Bend, Sunriver, Sisters, Portland, Lake Oswego, Cannon Beach, Manzanita, Gearhart and Vancouver, WA, we are rapidly growing and privileged to represent some of the finest real estate properties Oregon and SW Washington at all price points!
"Do NOT use Cascade Sotheby's as your real-estate agency. Poor communication --- Cascade Sotheby's agent Yvonne Blewett missed important equipment lease disclosure at outset, surprised Buyer and us (Seller) week of closing. Threatened us about breach of contract (resulting from her failure), and forced us to pay the lease out initially in order to close the sale. Very stressful and time-consuming, combined with frantic and obtuse emails and texts. After the sale she decided not to cover the cost of her oversight. Cascade Sotheby's manager met with us, but simply passed along Yvonne's message that she was expecting us to pay for her mistake. Cascade Sotheby's owner, Deb Tebbs waved us off saying we should take it up with Yvonne. As Clients, we were surprised that CSIR would allow confrontational and unprofessional actions and not hold themselves and their agent accountable. We sold our house --- but only owing to last minute pay-off we had to make. Will not use Cascade Sotheby's again. Run the other way if you are considering Yvonne Blewett --- look elsewhere and pay close attention to agent's demeanor and communication style and capabilities."

Real estate agents work on commission, so the cost of hiring an agent will depend on the cost of the home you’re buying or selling. The listing contract should include information about the commission for both agents, which is usually 6 percent of the sale price in total or 3 percent per side. With an average national home value of around $440,000, the typical commission per agent is $13,200. However, you won’t pay this total out of pocket. Instead, the commission comes out of the sale price of the property.
Interviewing real estate agents is the best way to find the right person for the job. Consider asking the following questions to find the best agent for you:
How will you show my property?
Will you do open houses to market my home?
How will you handle dual agency (representing the buyer and you as the seller)?
Should I make repairs to my home before listing?
Will you get professional photos taken of my home?
What is the best price you think we can get for my property?
How long do you expect the sale to take?
Yes, hiring a real estate agent is worth it. Many homeowners make the mistake of trying to sell their homes by themselves, thinking that they’ll save money on the commission, but what they save on the commission, they very often pay for in frustration and concessions on the sale price. Hiring a real estate agent to handle the sale of your home not only makes the process far easier and takes the burden off of you, but most homeowners get more for their homes when going through an agent because of the marketing and salesmanship they bring to the table.
You don’t legally need a real estate agent as a buyer, as you can represent yourself, but you should always hire an agent as a home buyer. A professional real estate agent will have access to local MLS services to find homes that meet your criteria and needs, can connect you with other professionals—like a mortgage broker and real estate attorney—you’ll need for the purchase, and can often negotiate a better price for your home to help save you money. Plus, as the buyer, your agent’s commission comes from the seller’s proceeds from the sale of the home.
