Randy Bylsma

Bio:

Look at what our clients are saying about us…

“Wow! Four successful real estate transactions in one of the most challenging real estate years! Randy’s relentless marketing efforts got our high end water front condo sold at the highest price per square foot ever attained in our neighborhood. Their perseverance and continued marketing efforts enabled us to move on to a different lifestyle. After an intensive search Randy negotiated a great price on our dream home. Randy also helped my sister sell her waterfront condo which had become a financial burden for her. My parents had to sell the family Oregon City Estate that had fallen into disrepair and Randy was able to secure a good price in a tough market. I would recommend Randy to anyone that needs to buy or sell Real Estate.”

– Paul M. (John’s Landing, Oregon City & Sherwood)

“We recommend the Bylsma Property Group for anyone\’s real estate needs. We used two real estate brokers to sell our house. The first realtor was unsuccessful in getting our house sold. We hired the Bylsma Property Group before Thanksgiving and they generated two offers at their first open house! They diligently worked through the details to close the transaction for more than $10,000 above asking price! We could not have asked for better representation.” – Chimei S. (Oregon City)

“Without the extraordinary dedication of Randy and his team, I’m certain my mother’s home would still be for sale. They truly went above and beyond to ensure repairs the buyer wanted were completed quickly and completely, accomplishing what I could not have on my own. Having worked with Randy’s team now on three transactions, two sales and one purchase, I know I can count on their professionalism and level-headed approach. They work hard for each sale, are always respectful and truly understand how important the decision to buy or sell a home is.” – Susan K. (Oregon City)

“Randy and his team know the market well; they sold my John’s Landing condo in less than one week,” – Bob K. (John’s Landing)

“Randy and his team were always honest and candid and never wasted my time. At all times they were thorough and persevering professionals. Randy and his team did everything in a timely manner and with a positive attitude.” – Scott W. (Tualatin)

“Randy’s honesty, integrity and work ethic is unparalleled. He listened carefully to our needs and carried out objectives to secure the results we were after.” – Hasina S. (Oregon City)

“Randy, Thank you so much for your hard work and dedication to getting my mom’s house sold. The market is tough and buyers know it, so we appreciate all of your help getting us safely through the process. You went above and beyond!” – Susan K. (Tigard)

“Randy, you are no longer JUST our real estate agent, but also our friends! You are so very good at what you do, you know the biz in & out, you’re fun, and ethical.” – Emily and Matt H. (Oregon City & Tualatin)

“Randy’s team was tremendously helpful while I tried to decide what type of accommodations would best fit my retirement lifestyle in Portland. I was moving from Virginia and wasn\’t very familiar with Portland and what it had to offer. They spent many hours escorting me through houses and condos located in a variety of locations. For months, they emailed me pages of property to consider. They helped me find the perfect place at the perfect price…and became great friends as well!”
– Retired Principal from Virginia (John’s Landing)

“We had been to a few of Randy’s open houses and knew that he and his team had sold some homes in our area—even in this tough market. So we knew that they were professionals who got results. With that in mind, when we decided to sell, we acquired their services. They were instructive, patient, never hurrying us, always treating us like friends and tenaciously pursued the very best deal for us. “Once we had an accepted offer they found us the perfect new home to match our needs and desires. We will use the Bylsma Property Group for any home quest in our future and unequivocally recommend them to all others.” – Dan and Patricia (John’s Landing & Tigard)

“Randy and his team were very patient showing us house after house until we found the home that we eventually purchased.” – Keven C (West Linn)

“Randy, your knowledge of the area as well as your networking and marketing skills were superb. I also really depended on your professionalism and knowledge to negotiate the final sale. I\’ve worked with several real estate agents/brokers in my life and have never seen the kind of dedication your team did to sell my property, including several open houses, signs, letters, flyers, networking, press and online ads, etc. In addition, I really appreciate all the added work you did for me, Randy, to help me move forward in my life, which included being my long distance property manager, furniture salesman, and overall coach! Your consistent positive energy and enthusiasm, as well as your excellent communication skills and flexibility were greatly appreciated.” – Michele M (SW Portland)

“The Bylsma Property Group are the type of Realtors everyone should experience. They followed through on all aspects of the buying and selling of our properties. We completely enjoyed our buying and selling experience with Randy and his very capable team and would not hesitate to use them again.” – Carol and Sherman L. (Sherwood)

\”After selling and purchasing a few homes, my husband and I have come to realize just how important a better than good agent is; and Randy is the best! He keeps his eye on the ball and his clients needs at the forefront of any transaction. Randy and his team were available 24/7, and they completed everything timely and efficiently. We were needy and picky customers and when purchasing something as important as a home I think that is fairly common. Randy always listened intently to our needs and made adjustments when necessary. All though Randy has all the great qualities needed for a quality Real Estate Professional, what mattered most to us was his extensive knowledge of contracts and his absolutely top-notch negotiation skills. We recommended him to our parents, and we would recommend him and his team to anyone looking to work with true professionals.\” – Amber A. (Oregon City)

“We could not have asked for a better realtor. With Randy and his team, we received unprecedented service. Randy answered all of our questions personally, kept in touch with us regularly and always went the extra mile. He had a listening ear and seriously considered our needs, questions, and concerns. Randy is a true professional who treats you as a valued friend. Thanks Randy!” – Dave and Cheri H. (Oregon City)

“Randy sold two waterfront condos for us this year. First, our John’s Landing condo transaction was quick and simple. Randy procured an all cash buyer within a few days and quickly without a glitch and without even going on the market. The second transaction, our Oregon City condo was a lot more challenging, with a loan balance much higher than the current market value. We chose to short sale the property. Randy was very knowledgeable and effectively worked with our lender and multiple buyers to negotiate a successful result for us. We would recommend Randy and his team for anyone’s real estate needs” – Ed and Judy Z. (Oregon City & SW Portland)

“Randy, thank you so much for your hard work and dedication and getting my mom’s house sold. The market is tough and buyers know it, so we appreciate all of your help getting us safely through the process. You went above and beyond!”
– Jim K. (Oregon City)

“I give Randy my highest recommendation, without reservation. Randy was persistent and diligent in getting our house sold. He kept us informed and outlined the course of action that he would take in selling the house. Randy paid close attention to detail and was devoted to getting the job done. Randy was always cheerful, dependable, follows through until completion, and was a tireless worker.” – Cheryl H. (Oregon City)

“Lauren Kelso and the team she works with are amazing- they were professional, dedicated to getting the property sold quickly, and supportive through the entire process. Thank goodness I chose the Bylsma Property Group and Lauren Kelso.” – Jon P. (West Linn)

“Randy was great. He orchestrated an open house just a few days after we signed with him. He had two open houses within the first two weeks and sold our condo immediately afterward. We got a full price offer which was in part due to his diligence and that of his team. We are pleased with his performance throughout the transaction and highly recommend him.” – Mark J. (SW Portland)

“I have worked closely only with Randy, but assume his performance depends upon an organization that gives him the freedom and the information he requires. The result is an efficient operation that meets my needs.”

– Steve S. (West Linn & Oregon City)

“Randy’s team’s professionalism, experience and energy in doing his best to help us before and after we purchased a home.” – Dan H. (West Linn)

“Randy did a fantastic job for me from start to finish! He provided excellent information, gave me great advice, and demonstrated a thorough knowledge about properties in the area. One of the things that really impressed me about Randy was his ability to ask questions that not only helped me focus on what was most important to me in choosing the right home, and that also gave him a better understanding of what I was looking for and to make suggestions based on that information. After showing me three or four properties on a given day, he’d ask which one I liked best and what about it I liked. This really helped me consider the pros and cons of each place and allowed him to make some very thoughtful recommendations. I am so happy with the home I purchased, and am really grateful to Randy for being such an important part of the whole process!” – John M. (SW Portland)

“Attentive and prompt responses to texts or emails, friendly service, knowledgeable.” – Nick W. (West Linn)

“10 out of 10!” – Grant W. (Oregon City)

He was also flexible in working with my concerns regarding costs related to inspection results that I believed were unreasonable.” – Donna R. (SW Portland)

“Randy has deep knowledge and experience with the market. He gave us great advice and helped us sell our house very quickly and with a minimum of fuss. He is always \”on it\’ and seems to work in his clients\’ interest 24 hours a day. He and his team gave us great and very comprehensive service. In addition to selling our old home, Randy\’s colleague Lauren Kelso worked hard and long to help us find- and buy- our dream house. They are unparalleled.” – Russell B. (SW Portland)

“After selling and purchasing a few homes I have come to realize just how important a better than good agent is, and Randy is the best. He keeps his eye on the ball and always keeps his client’s needs at the forefront of any transaction. Randy was available 24/7 and was always available when we needed him. We were needy and picky customers, and when purchasing something as important as a home I think that is fairly common, Randy always listened intently to our needs and made adjustments when necessary. It was Randy\’s integrity and commitment to truth that made it easy to trust him when he was helping to guide us through the selling and purchasing process. Although Randy has all the great qualities needed for a Real Estate Professional, what mattered most to us was his extensive knowledge of contracts and his absolutely top-notch negotiation skills. We recommended him to our parents and we would recommend him to anyone looking to work with a true professional.” – Amber E. (Portland)

“We hadn\’t planned on selling our home and buying another so quickly, but it all happened within a whirlwind six weeks! Randy and his team listened to our wishes, got our split-level house sold and helped us find just what we needed – one story living. They have such a thorough knowledge of the area, the current market conditions, and the real estate business that they made everything so much smoother than any of the five previous times we had bought or sold homes.

– They were encouraging, but realistic. Calm and reassuring

– They constantly kept us informed through with e-mails, phone calls and texts

– They always had time and energy to honor our special requests

Randy, and Lauren are savvy professionals! We would recommend them to anyone.” – Michelle M. (Oregon City & Wilsonville)

“My agent, Lauren with Bylsma Property Group was very professional, she did not try and push me into something I did not want. She was willing to come pick me up, to take me to the properties. She was very easy to get in contact with, returned my calls/emails promptly. She was happy to show me properties, that either my family or myself found, not just the ones listed.” – Barbara B. (Gresham)
