ZillowVERIFIEDAs first time buyers, Ashley was so helpful and patient with all the questions we asked. We had a lot to learn, and she had a lot of knowledge and experience to share. From the first interactions we had I could tell she was the right fit for us. She was so kind and welcoming and lead us through multiple scenarios with lots of encouragement and positivity. I couldnt have asked for a better person to help us navigate our first home-buying experience!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe are now a year into owning our first home and I couldn't imagine having a more perfect experience than what Ashley provided us. From beginning to end Ashley was collaborative, knowledgeable, patient, and diligent. She reassured us when needed, balanced in strategy and reality of the market and compassion and determination to help us find our dream home; and we did! She was quick to answer our questions, write up offers and scheduling, and getting all the logistics needed so that our process was smooth regardless of what outside barriers came up. She is an impressive negotiator and has a strong business sense while also encompassing and supporting all of the special heart warming aspects of what creates a home. I would recommend her services to anyone, as she goes above and beyond with communication, research, and investment in communities.

ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was very helpful in finding houses in areas the fit our lifestyle. She got to know us and was able to bring her experience to the table . She was amazing to work with ! We are so happy with our home purchase ! Thank-you for that personal touch & genuine interest in finding our forever spot !
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is an incredibly responsive and professional realtor. We worked together this fall to find exactly what I wanted in a home (which is NOT easy to do). She's naturally curious and spends time with you to understand what's important and what's not when it comes to what you (the customer) is looking for. Even though early on I saw the house I would eventually purchase, Ashley continued to find and show me other homes for comparison-- so when I went back to the first one, I knew it was the right one. She also walks you through the whole process, from understanding the market to all of the details of the purchase negotiation. She gets the best inspection folks to make sure you know what that house might need, and she questions the seller's representative for any doubts you might have. From your initial meeting with Ashely, she's really on your team and doesn't want to "just sell" you a house. She wants to make sure you find something that is right for you; her deep knowledge of the market allows her to describe neighborhood features and benefits (and even oddities) so you can feel like you understand what you are choosing when you make your final selection. Ashley was recommended to me by a local Salem person and they could not have been more right about her. I would recommend her skills, her good nature, her insight, and her patience to anyone looking to find just the right new (to you) home in a way that feels like a partnership throughout.
ZillowVERIFIEDWeve worked with Ashley twice nowaEUR"once to purchase a home when we moved across the country to Oregon, and more recently to sell our home in Salem. It was a whirlwind sale and we couldnt have made it happen without Ashley. She is highly recommended!!

She's light hearted and funny, Dedicated and a Strong sense for negotiation. She makes sure not to give all her cards away.

She is simply worth connecting with, to buy or to sell, My go to will always be Ashley Contreras.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was heaven sent. We moved here from out of state and since we were new to the area, we met her very early in the process. We chose Ashley to represent us over 2 other agents because she was the most prepared and communicated her approach beautifully. She helped us determine which neighborhoods, home types and prices suited us best. She patiently waited for us to complete our move from out of state and paid careful attention to our wants and needs. When we arrived here, she was ready to go. We made our first offer in a little over a week's time. The house we chose had 7 other offers within the first few days of it going on the market. With Ashley's help we were able to win the bid even though we were not the highest offer. She excelled during the inspection process and the negotiations that followed. We are so glad we chose her. She never pushed us, knew just what to do and kept us on task. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced, gracious and tenacious realtor.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is simply amazing. She was very patient with all my requirements and I had a lot. She guided me through the process. I do not think I would have been able to buy my house if not for her. She is a gem of a person and the best realtor I know.

ZillowVERIFIEDHighly recommend! Ashley is totally charming and skilled and what she does. She helped us sell our property in a situation where it felt like everything was working against us but it all ended up working out really well! Would work with her again 100%
ZillowVERIFIEDWe are so happy we found Ashley! As first time home buyers, she made us feel comfortable and supported with the process from start to finish.

ZillowVERIFIEDI feel absolutely blessed to have been able to work with Ashley. We initially reached out to Ashley because she is very involved in the community and is a huge advocate for disadvantaged people. Ashley builds genuine relationships with her clients and community; she never made us feel like we were "just a job". As first time home buyers, we had LOTS of questions, and Ashley would always respond to our questions quickly, concisely, and in a way that made you excited to learn about the industry. She has a great pulse on the local market and was exceptional at helping us manage our expectations. At one point, we needed to take a break from our search due to some financial issues, and Ashley was very understanding - she ensured us that she would be readily available to take us back on when we were ready with absolutely no pressure. When we were able to start looking again, Ashley was great in pointing out positives and negatives with properties, often alerting us to potential issues at properties that we didn't notice. We never felt pressure from Ashley to look at any specific properties, to put offers down, etc. She would listen to what we wanted and would help manage our expectations respectfully. Ashley's industry knowledge helped us navigate the wild housing market in a way that greatly benefitted us as buyers. Once she helped us draft an accepted offer, Ashley continued to connect with us regularly to make sure we were comfortable and clearly outlined our next steps. She was able to anticipate possible hang-ups throughout the inspection and appraisal portion of the purchase and we were able to get these concerns addressed prior to them becoming actual delays. Ashley has great relationships with several partners throughout the industry, which helped us close quickly and pain-free. Ashley is an absolute treasure to work with, professionally and on a personal level. She is a beacon of light and positivity. Truly, Ashley is the best cheerleader we could have asked for and Salem is very lucky to have such a beautiful soul advocating for it.
ZillowVERIFIEDI was a Real Estate agent in California for 17 years, and recently retired to the Salem area to be with family. My daughter referred me to Ashley Contreras -- Ashley was a friend of my daughter, and helped her find her first house. At each step in my own home-buying process, Ashley came through with her commitment to excellence. I was unfamiliar with local practices -- Ashley was a champion at helping me navigate. She went out of her way to ensure every detail was taken care of aEUR" from arranging inspections to researching potential issues with a property. And in the end, her negotiation skills were stellar. Throughout our journey, Ashley demonstrated immense patience and understanding of our situation. Whether we needed additional time for research or required more information on a particular property, she took it all in stride. She gave me the information I needed to make an educated decision for myself. I felt like I was being guided, taken care of and looked after.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was amazing to work with! She was always available, responded promptly, and is highly knowledgeable about the Salem market. She was integral to guiding us through the entire process. She negotiated our costs down further than we expected as well. I would use Ashley again in a heartbeat and recommend her to all. Ashley found us our forever home.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is amazing! She was there for us every step of the way, explaining any and every question we had. She made sure we were comfortable with our decisions to purchase the home - and wanted to make sure it was our right home! ABSOLUTELY no pressures to purchase. I highly recommend her.
ZillowVERIFIEDThey say that a home purchase will be one of the most expensive purchases during your lifetime. As such, we wanted the best person we could find to help us navigate the confusing process of home buying. Ashley helped my wife and I purchase a home from out of state. She came highly recommended by a friend of a friend. While there is always hesitation to purchase a home without walking through it yourself, we felt so informed with Ashley that we practically felt like we were there. Her customer service, industry expertise, and quick responses to any questions were just some of the reasons we enjoyed working her. She really goes above and beyond wherever she can, and It was much appreciated. If you're reading the reviews chances are you may be comparing another candidates for a home purchase or sale. JUST GO WITH ASHLEY. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!! I can't wait to work with her again in a near future. Thanks so much Ashley! ??
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was amazing in helping out my wife and I getting our first house. She was patient and didn't try to push anything on us. She was also extremely knowledgeable about the entire process and what to look for in houses.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is a top-of-the-line agent. When we were faced with the emotional task of selling our family home, Ashley was knowledgeable, professional, and prompt. She was easy to reach, and worked quickly. Ashley also was very understanding and gentle as she knew this was a very emotional transaction for our family. She is, by far, the best agent I have worked with over the years. She even had a vacation planned during the sale of our house and she made sure that we had an agent to work with while she was away. You will NOT be disappointed when choosing Ashley Contreras for your real estate needs.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is amazing! She helped me with my first home-buying purchase, and I would trust her with every other future purchase! During my process, the housing market was challenging to say the least. I was unsure and nervous about how to proceed, but Ashley helped me every step of the way and made the experience fun and rewarding! She didn't pressure many to make a decision, but she stayed in communication and helped me with any question I had. The best part, I was about to give up entirely, and then we found the perfect home. I highly recommend her to anyone. She is THE BEST!
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was super helpful and supportive throughout my search and purchase. She went above and beyond for me as I was 6 hours away in Washington. Even when she was on vacation, she made sure I was taken care of.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is completely amazing! I cannot put into words how great she was with us. My fiancA(C) and I have been in the market to purchase our first home together and we couldn't find a realtor that we liked or felt comfortable with. Luckily we got introduced to Ashley and the rest was history. She took her time with us and explained everything about the home buying process. She made it so easy and a lot less stressful. She answered all of our questions and trust me there were a lot! Ashley was very professional when it came to showing homes. She didn't tell us her opinion on anything because she didn't want it to reflect our decision. I still can't put into words how great she was with helping us find our first home together. She was great when it came to walking us through putting an offer together as well as when we were negotiating repairs. Ashley was there every step of the way and for every milestone we reached. She became our friend during this process and she did not let that effect our decision on anything. She kept it professional through the whole thing. She's truly amazing and I hope everyone can have a realtor like Ashley.
ZillowVERIFIEDIf the most anxious part about buying a house to you is finding your realtor, look no further. As a first time home buyer, and a child who was raised to basically hate and assume the worst in realtors, I cannot say enough about how amazing Ashley is. She genuinely cares about the people she represents and what is best for them, she is completely selfless. She did so much for my husband and I during our process and we had a lot going on and she never wavered, was never pushy, never felt like she was annoyed at all my texts and questions. She loves gaining knowledge and sharing it! I feel so extremely lucky/ blessed, whatever you want to call it, that I have her in my life. I will never use anyone else for any other future real estate needs and share her name with friends and family happily. I think Ashley is on a secret mission to change how people feel about realtors, and I am all for it! I am more than happy to support her as she supported me in such a major decision. Thanks for reading! And good luck!
ZillowVERIFIEDThe one thing I can say - Ashley is the best! From the beginning, she was very thorough, professional, and fun. She actually cares about her clients and how this huge decision affects their lives vs. just looking for a payday. There are ups and downs during the purchase of a home, she was there with us for all of them. When and if we ever buy or sell again, Ashley will be our go-to. If you want the best, do not scroll any further!
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley puts her heart and soul into her work. Shes quick to show you this when she cheers your wins or doubles her efforts when theres a speed bump. I dont think I could tell you how many late nights and weekends Ashley spent answering our questions or following up on things. She went above and beyond all expectations to help get my family into the home we wanted, all while navigating the craziest of markets. I honestly couldnt recommend Ashley more.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley is the best! She helped my wife and me find our first home, and we are so glad to have worked with her. Her excellent knowledge of the home buying process and the Salem market helped us feel confident that we were on track and making the best decisions for ourselves from start to finish. In a fast-moving market, timing is everything, and Ashley was always available at short notice to consult with us and setup showings. She made house hunting enjoyable by always showing enthusiasm, kindness, patience, and authenticity. She genuinely cared about finding us the right home. It gave us such peace of mind, knowing that she was always looking out for our best interests. She also connected us with an excellent local lender that provided much better service and rates than the bank we had previously been working with. Thanks Ashley!
ZillowVERIFIEDAs first time home buyers, my husband and I are so glad we decided to work with Ashley. She really helped us understand the home buying process and was very responsive whenever we had questions. If we wanted to see a house, she was quick to get us a showing which helped ease some of the stress of buying in this market. I especially appreciate how personable Ashley is -- her authenticity, patience, and support made her really enjoyable to work with. She also clearly loves Salem and has a lot of local knowledge, which was important to us since we were moving to a new community. I definitely recommend working with her!
ZillowVERIFIEDI am so glad we worked with Ashley for our first time buying a home!

Bottom line: she made the process easy for us, and I would highly recommend working with her!

ZillowVERIFIEDWe reached out to Ashley with "hello, I think we are ready to buy a home" we ended a few months later with our forever home. She took very good care of us and help with every little question. I HIGHLY recommend using her for any and all real estate needs.
ZillowVERIFIEDI recently had the pleasure of working with Ashley Contreras when looking for my new home.

Doing this on my own, I really appreciatedA how Ashley was there for me through the whole process; from home search, her professional and caring attitude through the frustrating parts of escrow and closing; especially through this difficult pandemic period,A Ashley was on top of everything.,A quickly handling any issues that may have risen.A If needed in the future, there isn't any question on who my Realtor will be, and I will definitely send family and friends her way!

ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was a great person to work with. I was new to the entire process and she was knowledgeable and walked me through the entire process. She took in my needs and wants while we were looking at different properties and was honest about her opinions and experience that would best benefit me.
ZillowVERIFIEDMy husband and I were relocating from Portland to Salem and were really nervous about the process. Not only had we never moved cities jointly, but we were first time homebuyers as well. Ashley was quick to respond when we reached out for some initial questions after our pre-approval. She made us feel comfortable right away and answered any questions that came up with confidence and assurance. Ashley is passionate about living in Salem and building the community here, which means so much since it's my hometown. She walked us through the process, and we were fortunate to find our dream house within weeks of meeting Ashley---and it was because she was so on top of it. We appreciate the work you do, Ashley! We will be recommending you to everyone we know who may be in the process of buying or selling a home, without hesitation. Thank you!
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was very informative of the area and attentive to what I was looking for. Compared to other realtors Ive dealt with she was a breath of fresh air.
ZillowVERIFIEDCaring, thoughtful, fun, flexible, wise, and professional are only a few words that describe Ashley. We where able to see a whole new side of Ashley while working with her, even though we have known her for many years. Ashley is very dedicated to her clients and ensuring that they have a comfortable buying or selling experience, or both in our case. We would recommend her any day! Our lender even expressed how impressed he was with her and said he hopes to work with her again in the future.
ZillowVERIFIEDOur house search/buying experience with Ashley was incredibly positive. Ashley more than goes out of her way to help. As we were going to be new to the area and had to travel to meet her, she scheduled house showings EVERY weekend and anytime in-between. She is able to recommend restaurants, coffee shops and the most amazing dog park I have ever seen. Ashley is kind, funny and has an amazing outlook on life and her job. The love she has for this city, helped put me at ease and made it feel like we made the right choice in moving. You will not be sorry in contacting Ashley Contreras!!! We highly recommend her!!!
ZillowVERIFIEDWe feel very fortunate to have been introduced to Ashley a few years ago when we were looking to buy our first home. We had no knowledge of buying a home and Ashley (who has a very upbeat and positive personality) made the whole process like a walk in the park. She has knowledge and expertise, and when you start feeling anxious about the whole process, shes right there to calm your nerves and talk you through it! Ashley truly cares about her clients having a great home buying experience. So we hired her again 2 years later, to help us sell our first home. Again, she made the whole process so much easier! We highly recommend Ashley for either buying a home or selling yours. A++ rating!
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was so patient with us as we dragged her all over the Willamette Valley. She was very responsive to our needs and kept us informed about what to expect in a market we werent very familiar with.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley was amazing to work with! As a first time homebuyer, I really appreciated her sharing her knowledge and experiences with us. She helped us find and close quickly on a home that perfectly fits the needs of our family and we couldn't be happier. Ashley always kept us informed of important dates and documents and did a great job of being available to us whenever we had questions or concerns. I would highly recommend Ashley if you are interested in buying a home and making it as painless as possible!
ZillowVERIFIEDWe could not have asked for a better realtor than Ashley! She was professional, patient, caring, knowledgeable and fun to work with. As first time homebuyers, we didnt know much about the home-buying process or even what we wanted in a home. Ashley helped us navigate our expectations and our budget, and explained every step of the process expertly, which gave us confidence in what would otherwise have been an overwhelming journey. What perhaps impressed us most was that when we were having some serious second-thoughts about our purchase during the inspection period, Ashley made it clear that she would support us if we decided to back out. It was obvious that Ashley cared immensely about our satisfaction with our purchase--our excitement about the home was more important to her than completing the transaction. Her dedication to her clients is what makes Ashley stand out among others in her profession. We would highly recommend Ashley to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Salem area!
ZillowVERIFIEDI am so thankful that Ashley was our agent. This was my first time buying a house and I was very picky. When showing me houses, Ashley noticed things I wouldnt have caught. I appreciated her knowledge of the area and all the time she took to find us our perfect home.
ZillowVERIFIEDAshley helped me sell my first home where I had lived for 12 years. Its a bit emotional selling a home thats become part of your life like that. I cant even begin to describe how amazing Ashley was in helping me sell this special place. Not only that, but I had already moved out of state, so I had to do everything remotely. Ashley went out of her way to make sure the house was sale-ready, got it on the market super quick and was diligent with returning calls, so that we ended up getting more offers than I expected! She kept me updated constantly and explained everything so well. I would absolutely use Ashley again in the future for all my home buying and selling needs!
