ReviewBrian was great to work with. He was thoughtful, understanding, knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with. He helped us sell our home while we were out of state. The contractors he recommended to get the house ready for sale were skilled and trustworthy. We were super pleased and appreciative that we found Brian and Apex group to sell our home. Definitely call them up if you have realtor needs in the area. I would ask for their help again if the need arises.

ReviewCasey was our agent for a purchase of a single family house in a very competitive area back in March of 2026, we were very specific with our preferences, and the fact that we have been already looking in the local market with other agents prior to meeting Casey, probably put a lot of extra pressure to him. Nonetheless he was the best agent we worked with locally, and we would continue working with him in the future. If you are looking for a dynamic, knowledgeable, professional agent that would reward those who do their homework, and beyond, C is our personal recommendation. Just a great guy all around.

ReviewBrian doesnt just help you buy a house, he helps you find a home. He is responsive, informative, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire home-buying process. What sets him apart is his honesty and willingness to share both the positives and negatives of a property and its surrounding area, even before you visit. This gives you a better understanding of what to expect and helps you decide whether a property is worth seeing in person, saving you valuable time and effort. Highly recommend!

ReviewBrian did an outstanding job helping me purchase my first property. From start to finish, he was responsive, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right home. He took the time to answer all my questions, guided me through every step of the process, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel easy and enjoyable. Not only did Brian find me a fantastic property that perfectly fit my needs, but he also negotiated a great price and ensured I got the best possible value. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication truly set him apart. I always felt confident knowing he had my best interests in mind. I highly recommend Brian to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate. If you're looking for a realtor who delivers results while providing exceptional service, Brian is the person to call!

ReviewJohn Tae helped us buy this condo for a family member over 8 years ago. He was equally skilled in helping us sell the unit this summer. John and his team are knowledgeable and honest.

ReviewBrian is THE consummate professional realtor. I have now worked with him 3 times and his dedication, commitment, and focus are impeccably satisfying to experience as a customer. He brings up issues you'd never think of and gives you information that is crucially useful for your home search. He isn't afraid to tell you if he dislikes a property and is brutally honest about it because he wants the best for you as a client. I am extremely pleased with the property he found for my family, meeting all of our needs while being incredibly responsive and informative

Review**5 Stars - Amazing First Home Buying Experience with John!** My spouse and I recently bought our first home, and we couldnt have done it without Johns incredible help. From the very beginning, he made the entire process smooth and stress-free. His knowledge of the market, attention to detail, and responsiveness were beyond impressive. John truly took the time to understand what we were looking for and guided us through each step with patience and care. He always made himself available to answer our questions, no matter how small, and provided expert advice that made us feel confident in our decisions. What stood out the most was his expertise and knowledge of the Portland Metro area. Its clear hes been doing this a really long time and that experience is invaluable. Thanks to him, we found a home that we absolutely love, and we couldnt be more grateful. If youre looking for a realtor who is professional, knowledgeable, and truly cares about your needs, we highly recommend John. He made our first home buying experience better than we ever expected!

ReviewApex Group is phenomenal to work with and they were incredibly patient with us during my parent's 4 year on-again, off-again journey to find a place in Portland. We worked with multiple agents during that time, and all were very warm and professional. John (our final buyers agent) in particular has a great understanding of valuation, home condition, and negotiation strategy. Agnes is the unsung hero of the operation, keeping us well informed throughout the transaction process and making sure everything got done on time!

ReviewI had the pleasure of partnering with Apex Group to find a new home for my family in Portland. It was my first time visiting Portland, knowing that we had to relocate and find a home in the coming weeks for a new job, and it was daunting. But John was incredibly helpful. John and his team was amazing to work with, and really took the time to understand our needs and focused on the areas that were important to us. His local insight was incredibly valuable, and even helped us with a few vendors that we needed to prep the home right. I would think if anyone needs to buy a home in Portland, they should start with Apex. Highly recommended!

He will look at any specific situation and provide good knowledge and insight to assist his clients along the process of search and buying a property.

ReviewHelped me a lot to understand the Hillsboro locality and properties of interest. There were few near Quatama that intrigued but were not appealing. She then proposed to check out Reed's crossing homes. Eventually I found the perfect one that suits my needs.

ReviewJohn was incredible with selling my rental property. I live on the East Coast and could not be there in person throughout any of the process -- John took care of everything for me from step 1 all the way through the end. My property manager was extremely difficult to work with after I decided to sell the property and began ghosting me. He also refused to perform a thorough walkthrough of the house once the tenant left. As such, John took it upon himself to connect with my property manager, going above and beyond, even driving out of the way to property manager's office to obtain the house keys on my behalf. John also conducted a thorough walkthrough of the house and for any minor fixes, he fixed it for me. There was even a clogged toilet and sink so John drove to Home Depot and fixed them. For any other repairs that John observed, John performed his due diligence to obtain the best pricing and quality service (e.g., replaced carpet, painted a few damaged walls, etc.). When all was said and done, John was able to sell the house for a substantial amount more than what I was initially expecting. I highly recommend John and would not go with anyone else if I am in the Portland metropolitan area. He has amazing professionalism, character, and professionalism. It would be a disservice not going with John.Side note: To further attest as to how amazing John is, my wife and I recently moved to the East Coast and was looking to buy. I was already using John to sell my Portland rental home so I asked if he could assist with my home purchase on the East Coast since my wife and I did not know anyone. John performed a due diligence and interviewed multiple real estate agents in Connecticut and found us the best agent possible in my area. John did not have to do this, but he took time out of his busy schedule (despite not being compensated) to help us purchase a home all the way on the other side of the country.

ReviewI purchased a house with help from Brian. I was in another state, so I should buy a house in a short time from remote to relocate. I made two house hunting trips. At the first trip, I met Brian for the first time, and he provided several listings to narrow down my preference. His market analysis was accurate, and he provided preferable houses on my second trip. Brian communicated with the seller's agent diligently, and he provided me with all the necessary information to win bidding. However, I gave up because of the high price (way over the listing price) and several cash buyers. At this point, Brian showed his excellency. The original winner failed to close, and Brain captured that info quickly. I submitted an offer immediately, and it was accepted. Even lower price than the initial bidding. If you want to buy a house around the Portland metro area, you should talk to Brian.

ReviewJohn is dedicated to his clients. We had a rental house that my father owned that needed to sold. The house needed to be repaired before selling. John drove down to the house a couple of times to help set up the sale. Each trip was 150 miles one way. The time requirements for the contractors and myself made it difficult for me to meet them. There are realtors in Florence, but we did not know any enough to trust in the sale of that property. John and his team were very supportive in getting the estate set up to sell, and his team were consistently helpful in follow up on that sell.

ReviewWhen our family was deciding to make a cross country move, Steffanie was one of the first calls we made. She provided us with all of our options, a timeline for what we could expect and also how her and her team could help support us through this transition. We cannot express enough gratitude for the high level of communication, professionalism, attention to detail and overall support from Steffanie and her team. House selling can be stressful process, and they made the process streamlined in a way that we never thought was possible. We cannot recommend Steffanie and her team more.

I had a lot of questions along the way that John was always able to answer and also gave great advice he thought would be useful. Even when we had issues during the process, John always kept me updated and informed so I always knew what was going on. On top of all that, he has a very personality which makes him easy to talk to and get along with! Thanks John!

ReviewMy husband and I have done many real estate transactions and John and his team are THE BEST. We are based in the Bay Area and worked with John on an investment property in Portland. His deep expertise of region, resulting in us buying in an area that we were not initially considering, but resulted in a great investment and financial return. He helped us with the initial purchase and was a strong negotiator. He also helped us with the property management side, and then before selling, even helped us stage and re-carpet our home. We got WELL over our asking and it was the smoothest process weve ever had. I highly recommend John to anyone looking to buy or sell in the PDX, Beaverton, and surrounding areas.

ReviewJohn is an awesome agent who is knowledgeable and didnt give us any pressure when my wife and I were shopping around. Unlike other agents, he didnt push us to make offers. When we were ready to make one, he was willing to give us his unbiased opinion so that we wouldnt over/under shoot the offer. Home buying process always has kinks to work out and John is the definitely the agent you want to have.

ReviewJohn Tae is an amazing realtor who is professional, experienced, efficient and honest. There are many more positive adjectives to describe John and his team but these are the four characteristics that stand out the most. We also had a wonderful time working with Agnes, the director of operation, who was there 24/7 for us. She was able to patiently and thoroughly answer all of our questions and concerns making us feel comfortable and trusted throughout the whole process. No questions were too small or trivial for her and the team. We were able to successfully purchase our property with a reasonable bid because of Johns connection and reputation in this industry. We strongly recommend John and his team to anyone local or new to the beaverton community.
