From start to finish, the Dan Volkmer TEAM delivered outstanding service that exceeded our expectations. Selling a home filled with so many cherished memories is an emotional undertaking, and we were grateful to have such a thoughtful, attentive team guiding us. Their coordinated approach to handling both the sale of our NW Portland Bungalow and the purchase of our new condo was nothing short of impressive. They walked us through every step, making what felt overwhelming become manageable.
Kishra Ott was instrumental in preparing our house for the market, providing expert guidance on its value and helping us navigate negotiations to secure favorable terms. Meanwhile, Fritz Benz and Kim Hayworth gave meticulous attention to every aspect of our condo purchase, ensuring we felt informed and confident about our investment every step of the way. Throughout it all, Dan kept everything running smoothly as the steady hand overseeing the entire process.
What truly set this team apart wasn't just their expertise. It was their genuine care. They communicated clearly, worked in perfect harmony with one another, and consistently went the extra mile to support us. Their combination of professionalism and authentic kindness made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable and even enjoyable.
If you're looking for a real estate team that truly has your back, we enthusiastically recommend Dan Volkmer, Kishra Ott, Kim Hayworth, and Fritz Benz as the ultimate team. They've earned our trust and our gratitude.
I interviewed many real estate agents before choosing to work with the Dan Volkmer team specifically because the DV team understood how special old/historic homes are. They had strategies to highlight the unique qualities of old homes and make them attractive to buyers, rather than simply trying to update them to be more modern. (Other real estate agents told me that I should whitewash the inside, including the beautiful wood interior - I was horrified!) The process of working with the DV Team was five stars from start to finish. Selling a home is overwhelming and they helped me through every step of it. They were understanding, conscientious, and detail-oriented. I had such a good experience selling my home with them that I also used their team to make my next home purchases. I recommend them without reservation!

We had an outstanding experience working with Dan Volkmer Realty. Dan and his team exceeded our expectations from start to finish, helping us receive a full-price offer in a soft market.
A big part of our success came from their expert advice on preparing our home for sale. Kishra was absolutely exceptional, going above and beyond to keep us on track, facilitating every detail, and introduced us to outstanding contractors who made the process as smooth as possible.
Dan and his team also have an impressive knowledge of the Portland real estate market, especially Northwest Portland, and their guidance gave us confidence every step of the way.
If you're buying or selling a home, particularly in Northwest Portland, we can't recommend Dan Volkmer Realty highly enough. They're true professionals who genuinely care about their clients and consistently deliver outstanding results.
Dan, Fritz, and Kim took great care of us and now we have the houes of our dreams! I know I'll be just as taken care of when I'm selling my investment property later this year.

A great experience working with Dan, Fritz, and the Volkmer team. From our initial meeting to the final close, they were friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable. Due in large part to their skills, our NW Portland townhouse had multiple offers, several over asking price, and a quick easy close.
We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a residential property.
