As first-time home buyers, I don't think we could have found a better real estate agent than Julia. She quickly understood our needs, helped us be realistic with the homes we chose to visit, gave her honest opinions, and she was very communicative. We will be recommending Julia to anyone looking into real estate in Portland!

Julia recently helped us get into a new home in Clackamas, OR. She was helpful, professional, and an incredible advocate for us as we went through the process of getting settled into new jobs, a new home, and a new community.

Julia is someone I would highly, highly recommend selecting if you are in the real estate market. She not only hired the best photographer but also had great recommendations for home repairs, title companies, etc. Julia is a very well-connected and organized strategist when it comes to this stuff. I was also relocating out of state and she was quite familiar with the nuances of that process, working alongside the relocation company to ensure a smooth process from start to finish.

My wife and I recently purchased our first home and we highly recommend Julia Monson and the rest of the Mahaffy Group. Buying a house in a crazy real estate market during a global pandemic was not exactly easy or fun, but we successfully made it through largely thanks to Julia's advice, encouragement, humor, determination, and optimism (sprinkled with occasional sobering realism). And after we got an offer accepted, Julia and Dan were huge assets and great advocates helping us negotiate needed repairs, scheduling contractors, and coordinating regularly with the Seller.

Julia and team were fantastic in our search for our first investment property. Not only in helping us find the perfect property but also in helping with renter questions as they came up. Without a doubt would recommend Julia and hope to work with her again soon.

Julia is amazing. She is straightforward, professional, quick to respond, and super easy to communicate with. She cared about what we were looking for and really kept our best interests in mind (even in moments of desperation, when as a buyer, you want to just throw your hands up and "settle" - she kept us on track and made sure we weren't sacrificing our desires). We had previously worked with a realtor in another state who did not advocate for our side of things, so having Julia was a HUGE relief as she is tough and won't let you get taken advantage of amidst the tough markets. I could go on all day. She constantly went above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone! We are settled in our amazing home now, but I still ask her questions and she happily responds (haha sorry I'm annoying, Julia!). Her personality is very easy to get along with and she's super detail oriented - I don't know how she does it. She's the best and we are so grateful to have had her through the entire process. Thank you, Julia!!!

Julia gets results! Not only did she sell our house the day it went on the market, she also got us more than we asked for. On top of that she is easy to get a hold of, responds within minutes and is just easy to work with. If you want results, go with Julia. You won't be disappointed.

-- Eric (Seller)

I was fortunate to have Julia as my realtor. My company was relocating and working with Julia's firm. After speaking with my relocation specialist they made the suggestion I work with Julia. Julia was amazing. Moving from one state to another, along with selling one house and purchasing another is extremely stressful. Julia listened to me and worked tirelessly to find me the perfect house in the perfect area that met all of my needs. I cannot say enough about her work ethic and ability to assist me with the purchase of my home!

-- Beth (Buyer)

Julia is great! When we moved we were completely overwhelmed by the real estate market. We worked with five different realtors and after sitting down with Julia on our first meeting we knew she would be the perfect fit for us. She will truly push to get you what you want and won’t pressure you into anything you may not feel comfortable with. At every turn, she was helpful and there for us, from inspector and vendor recommendations to providing helpful insight on houses and neighborhoods. We feel confident that she had our best interest at heart, and that alone has earned our trust and respect. I will recommend her to everyone I know who is looking for a house.

Julia is an absolute gem! As first time home buyers, we were uncertain about the process and nervous about the competitive market. Julia was a fantastic partner who helped us uncover what we wanted, find it and procure it. She gave us great advice about negotiating, was unbelievably responsive and educated us about how things work. She went above and beyond anything I'd expect and I would highly recommend her to anyone interested in buying or selling their home. Julia is the reason we now get to call our sweet house a home.

-- Kirsty H. (Buyer)

I recently sold my condo and Julia did a wonderful job as my agent. It was my first home sale and she was extremely helpful with every step of the process. She gave excellent advice on how to price my condo and devised an effective marketing strategy which resulted in several offers within days of being on the market. I happily accepted an offer above asking price. From there, she expertly guided me through all of the necessary steps to close successfully including negotiations, repairs, inspections, etc. She was meticulous in making sure everything was ready for closing. Julia was personable, easy to reach, and very responsive throughout the whole process. If you're looking for a real estate agent, I'd highly recommend Julia!

Julia was everything you want in a Realtor when you are selling and buying a home. She was very patient and helpful as we searched for our perfect new home, we never felt rushed through the process or pressured to make a decision we weren't ready to make. When we were ready to put our first home on the market, she made the process easy to understand and worked quickly and efficiently. She helped us determine where to put our time and energy to get the best bang for our buck on the sale of our home., and it worked! We were blown away at how well she marketed and showed our home and we are confident her advice and hard work were the main contributor to the many over-asking offers we received. She is easy to work with, very knowledgeable, and confident. We wouldn't hesitate to include her on our next realty deals.
