Very thorough and aggressive in getting us leads to look at before they even hit the multilist. Also very knowledgeable about costs of remodelling, potential problems and solution suggestions. Got us the most thorough, knowledgeable home inspector, best of any Ive used. Others all seem to miss a ton of stuff, helped a lot with our bid.

Helpful and knowledgeable realtor. We found the property and he helped us close the deal and find great financing options. Would definitely work with him again though I would be more aggressive in my negotiations next time.

Ian was great to work with from start to finish. We purchased a new construction home, and he was extremely effective in keeping our deal together throughout several long delays. He was our eyes and ears in Bend for many months as we moved here from out of state, making sure all the large and small details got done correctly. Hes an expert on the local market and wed highly recommend him!

Ian was such a pleasure to work with....he listened to our likes and dislikes and was able to work us to find our beautiful Bend home! He was easy going, thorough and very available....and his construction background helped us understand and see the homes we looked at differently! I highly recommend Ian Berg if you are in need of a Real Estate Professional for both Bend and the surrounding areas!

Ian was available at a moments notice during the entire time of the sale. He was knowledgeable, conscience, and extremely helpful for me throughout. He also let me know what our timeline for various events were, such as appraisal, etc. I am very pleased that I had Ian, Cameron and Fred's Real Estate supporting me. I highly recommend them.

Ian Berg has a level of integrity that truly gives realtors a good name. Selling multiple property's of mine in a short amount of time paying close attention to every detail. Explaining all aspects of the contracts clearly. Helped with landscaping himself and many other details that went way beyond the scope of any realtor I had prior. Being a Bend resident of over 30 years+ I can say that he is truly the locals choice.

Awesome to work with, vast amount of real estate knowledge. Friendly, honest, and prompt! Made the whole process easy and exciting. We had to wait a few months on our end for funding to become available, he waited patiently with us and showed us houses in the meantime, getting a feel for what we really wanted. When we found our dream home he helped to secure it while we got the green light, once that happened it was a quick and painless transaction. We couldn't have done it without him.

We were so fortunate to have Ian as our real estate agent. He is extremely knowledgeable, flexible and motivated. He quickly learned our style, the type of home we were looking for and helped find us the perfect house to create a home. Ian thinks out of the box and is easy to be around. I have nothing but positive sentiments for Ian and highly recommend him for anybody looking to buy or sell a home! Thank you, Ian!

Ian is very professional and works hard for his clients. I'm always impressed with how much he knows about Central Oregon's real estate landscape. When you talk to Ian you can tell he is genuinely interested in what you're saying and what your needs are. I highly recommend Ian to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the Central Oregon.

Ian was very professional and personable to work with. He is knowledgable about Bend and the surrounding towns, giving ideas/suggestions for things my family and I could go out and see or do. Having just moved to this area, this was an added bonus. He was invaluable with setting up a home appraiser, home inspector, and septic inspection/pumping. We never felt pressured into making an offer on homes we viewed, and he even came to my final signing.

I had listed my home for sale with a different broker over the previous year without so much as an offer. When I listed with Ian he was confident in his marketing plan. He explained that a great internet presence starts with great pictures. He paid for a professional photographer to no only photograph my home but do a full video tour of my home. I received multiple offers in the first week, and was able to to close within a month. I received a much higher price than the property that sold next door the same week but was listed with a different agent. If you have need a great real estate agent in Central Oregon call Ian.

From my first interaction with Ian to the closing of my purchase, he provided everything and more than I could have expected from an agent. He guided me through the ups and downs, even with me being in Portland while most of the deal was being negotiated. Ian even provided me with virtual tours when a new property came available and I wasn't able to make it over to Bend. Ian has the perfect blend of youth and experience and knowledge of the area to be my first choice for any other real estate I may purchase in the future.

We enjoyed working with Ian, since he was very professional in stepping us thru the process as we were purchasing a home in Bend, long distance from Renton Washington. His recommendation of Guild Mortgage in Lake Oswego was the key as we lost time trying to get a mortgage thru one of the major banks.In addition he contacted inspectors, contractors and other people to coordinate the process in order to effect a closing by Christmas, 2013. The development we chose is an older one with few sales annually, so Ian had alerts set up which resulted in getting one of the best in Nottingham.h As a commercial real estate broker in Washington and now in Bend all I can say is he represents the best of residential brokers I have worked with over the past 25 years plus.

Ian accomplished what two other realtors could not accomplish,it was to find me a buyer for a hard to sell property I owned. Ian told me he will find me a buyer and in the end there was 4 offers made and I received quite a bit more than my asking price. Ian responds fast and is always there when I have a real estate question. Ian you are truly not the average realtor you went above and beyond your call of duty and you earned your 5 out of 5 stars.

My wife and I recently purchased a retirement home in Bend using Ian's services. He quickly determined just what we were looking for, and could also afford, and showed us a number of houses, most on the first day they were on the market. Bend is an active market and the early bird definitely gets the worm. He actually seems to enjoy the negotiation process and secured the home we decided on without having to engage in a bidding war. He helped with the process both of finding a lender and of obtaining the data required to secure a loan. There were a number of upgrades/modifications needed for which Ian provided a list of local contractors. Those we used provided good service at a reasonable price. Ian has our enthusiastic recomendation for anyone looking to buy in the local market.

Very knowledgeable about the ins and outs of making a real estate transaction. Ian goes the extra distance to make the deal go through! He's found properties for me to buy and helped me get good deals and also sold them.. He's done a great job both sides of the transaction. He also had a lot of good contacts local contractors and trade persons which helped since I'm buying these properties from out of town and needed some local connections to fix them up. I've had experience with good realtors and bad over the years -Ian really shines!
