Whitney S. “Zayda was a dream to work with both with selling my last home and purchasing my new home. She never came to me with just a problem, she also had a well thought out solution. Throughout the process, Zayda kept clear and open communication on the home purchasing process and dealt with the seller's agent and my mortgage agent on my behalf and for my ultimate benefit. She always kept me in the loop and minimized any stressful situations that I had to deal with. I highly recommend Zayda, she was amazing to work with for both selling and purchasing a home. I would work with her again in a heartbeat. ”

Michelle G. “My husband and I just closed on our first home together in Gresham, OR and we were SO appreciative to have Zayda Maguire with us throughout the process. It quickly became obvious how incredibly knowledgeable she is about the ins and outs of home buying and selling and we immediately felt trusting of her expertise. She went above and beyond in teaching us about and guiding us through the process, is thorough and extremely responsive, and is overall a lovely person to interact with. She came highly recommended from a friend and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone who needs to buy or sell their next home! We will definitely be using her expertise in the future.”

Lynn R. “Zayda was amazing to work with. She is a stellar and strategic realtor who is firmly grounded in a great set of ethics. Her focus on education made me feel comfortable to ask questions and feel empowered during the scary and stressful homebuying process. Besides her immense knowledge of the market, what has had me refer her to friends was her focus on trust, communication and relationship building. I never felt pressured to buy and I truly felt she looked out for my best interests. During my closing process I have already referred her to a friend - who has already successfully has bought a house working with Zayda. I appreciate the integrity and fun that Zayda brings to the real estate market along with her vast knowledge of homeownership and home maintenance!!”

Christian E. “Zayda was absolutely fantastic. Not only was she very friendly and easy to work with, but her knowledge turned out to be invaluable. She is, obviously, very knowledgeable about the homebuying process, but also knows a ton about what to look for when evaluating a home and what that could mean. She knew what to look for and took the time to explain to us so we could be better too. Her partnership with her preferred lender was a nice bonus as well. We closed in 3 weeks! I shudder to think of the mountain of time and money she saved us. 10/10!”

Derrick G. “Zayda is amazing! Thorough, prompt, efficient. Best realtor I have ever worked with! She was two steps ahead of the game every time! Would love to work with her again.”

Ashley M. “Zayda is an absolutely fantastic realtor and we simply cannot recommend her enough. Zayda helped our family find our dream home and achieve a great sale of our previous property. She carefully instructed us step by step through buying and selling in the crazy Portland market. She helped us decide which key aspects of our house to highlight, and recommended some light renovations to complete in order to attract the right type of buyer. All of the advice was achievable and really paid off in the end. Zayda went the extra mile in creating wonderful marketing materials and a successful open house for us. It was her keen eye for how to market our house that led to multiple offers within the first 2 days on the market. Zayda knows her stuff and specializes in working with clients in the healthcare profession. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and truly a Portland gem.”

Alexis C. “Zayda helped us in ways we didn't know we needed. She's honest, upfront, and has a strong knowledge of the city. We were new to Portland and came from a very different east coast market. Her commitment to getting her clients in the best house for them far surpasses what I could have expected. She's the kind of realtor who will physically inspect a crawl space and hold your hand through the entire process. Highly recommend. She helped us a sell our previous property and find a perfect home for us in a supremely difficult market. ”

Ora O. “Zayda and her team were phenomenal! This was my first time selling a house and she really made everything run smoothly. Her expertise sold my home in a down market! From the staging to the flyers and open house, everything was top notch! Communication with everyone on the team was amazing and really helped make a stressful process easy. 10/5 stars! ”
