Making YOUR Real Estate Dreams a Reality!

What do Clients Say?

Cheryle's ability to find the best of all circumstances is one of her true natural God given abilities. She is a solution finder and a problem solver. We found that these are critical traits in transacting in any real estate equation. We were truly impressed when she saved us thousands of dollars in her negotiating for us. She follows through on even the smallest of details. Knowing her since 1976, her honesty and integrity have remained constant, unshakable, and have stood the test of time.

My family recently was tasked with moving our folks from their long time home into a residential retirement center and had to sell the home quickly. We had worked with Cheryle on a couple other real estate sales prior and knew we could rely on her for the best advice and service. This time around was no exception. Once again Cheryle went far beyond anything I have ever experienced from a real estate agent. The folks' house was in dire need of a quick refresh/rehab and Cheryle's advice to do so and lining up contractors to get things done in a timely manner was priceless. Her expertise and guidance led us to a quick, top dollar sale! We were happy with all of her resolutions to what would otherwise have been a very stressful situation. We were also able to maximize the net because of work Cheryle counseled us on to do. Once again, Cheryle's honesty, hard work and ethical standards showed through brightly. I highly, I repeat, HIGHLY recommend her!

Cheryle was highly recommended to us before we bought our first house by someone we went to church with. We could not have been happier with her enthusiasm, expertise and determination to ensure that we found exactly what we were looking for and what we needed. As our Realtor, she saw us through the purchase of our 1st home and it subsequent sale, as well as the purchase of our 2nd and 3rd home! She was with us during every step both day and night in each hectic process of selling AND buying at the same time. She put us at ease and we always know she had our best interest at heart. Each day we are thankful to be in the home and neighborhood that we dreamed and wished for! We can't thank Cheryle enough and highly recommend her.

Hope & Troy, Oregon Health & Science University

Portland is a tough, hot market and we had our eyes on Sellwood. With Cheryle’s help we bought our dream home in a dream neighborhood. I couldn’t recommend Cheryle more for her expertise, patience and perseverance. She really cares about her clients and it comes through for how hard she works to find them the perfect home. Thanks Cheryle!

Nathan & Brittany, 1st Time Home Buyers

Cheryle was our realtor when we bought our home in 2001, so when it came time to sell in 2020 she was our first choice to be our listing agent. She is experienced, and brought great knowledge, compassion and integrity to our selling experience. No issue for was too small for her to deal with, her quick response to questions and concerns kept us confident through the entire process. Our home sold in one day and above asking price! We will continue to give her business card to family and friends knowing she will work just as hard for them as she did for us.

About Cheryle

Cheryle has been in the real estate industry since 1990 and is a Graduate of the Real Estate Institute (GRI). She has owned her own brokerage and grew it to 50 Brokers strong!

Cheryle has continued to be a TOP Producer in the industry securing the prestigious designation of a Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) from the National Association of Realtor (NAR) in 2010. In order to receive this award Realtor's® have to complete advanced course training and demonstrate expertise in the field of residential real estate. She must sell a high volume of real estate each year. Fewer than 35,000 Realtor's nationwide have earned this credential.

In 2000 Cheryle was asked to take on and manage a real estate office that later she would find out her real estate company at the time was going to close. Instead Cheryle took it to become one of the TOP producing branches in the Clackamas area and ALL of the Regional Multiple Listing area. Cheryle was honored with the Certified Real Estate Brokerage Manager (CRB) in 2011. This designation is awarded to leaders in the industry who exemplifies the highest level of professional achievement in the field of real estate business management. The CRB Group is a membership of only 7,000 elite Managing Brokers worldwide and is highly regarded within the real estate industry.

Cheryle learned the importance that each broker could make in the real estate industry and therefore got very involved at many levels. Cheryle has volunteered throughout the years for the PGA. She brought this experience into the real estate industry by helping to run golf tournaments that support non-profit charities. The Oregon Association of Realtors® (OAR) asked her for her help in 2009 and continued until 2016 to lead the Committee for the annual OAR Home Foundation Golf Tournament whose proceeds benefit 501c non-profit charities throughout the entire state of Oregon. She was also the Head Committee Chair for the Board of Directors of the Home Foundation.

Her dedication does not stop there. She is a local member of the Portland Metropolitan Association of Realtors®.  In 2010 Cheryle was voted in as one of the State's Directors for the real estate industry and in 2013 was promoted to a Local State Director for PMAR for the Oregon Association of Realtors Board of Directors. The level of professionalism in Cheryle's industry is very important to her. Not only does she preach it, she practices it. She is a member of the Professional Ethics and Standards Committee, and in 2016 was Committee Chair in which she helps the industry maintain a high standard of professionalism. She is an accredited real estate educator with the State of Oregon and a Certified GRI Instructor traveling Oregon teaching to her peers.

In 2015 Cheryle was recognized by the Portland Metro Association of Realtors® for her decades of volunteer work and received the Good Neighbor Award. She began concentrating on supporting ‘Remodeling for Independence Together’ (ReFIT) in the early 2000’s.  ReFIT is a non-profit organization that helps people stay in their homes after being disabled. They help the elderly, veterans and others that have found themselves disabled by making halls and doorways wider, counters higher, and adding ramps so that those previously home-bound can now freely enter and exit their homes.

Since selling her real estate company in 2018 Cheryle is able to concentrate completely on her clients, both Buyers and Sellers. She has earned a high level of distinction with her clients and amongst her peers. All of Cheryle’s awards, expertise, and networking from within the industry, are there to help her clients be successful.
