ZillowVERIFIEDLaurie Evans Mischel has been my family's realtor of choice for many years. She has helped us buy and sell several homes in the Portland metro area. Laurie always has her client's best interests at heart, and is willing to show properties until the right one is found. Laurie helped me buy my most recent home in October 2023, and I really appreciated how proactive she was answering my questions and communicating with listing agents, even on evenings and weekends. I can't recommend Laurie Evans Mischel enough for any family looking for their next nest!

ZillowVERIFIED My transaction involved selling the home Id raised my kids in for 20 years & buying a new one. Therefore, Laurie acted as sellers agent & buyers agent, respectively. Each step of the process was well laid out by Laurie. We hit a very unforeseen snag in the sale process no one could have anticipated. Laurie remained calm & helped me do the same. She went above & beyond the call of duty every step of the way. I would highly recommend Laurie as either a buyers or sellers agent. She has the experience, professionalism and negotiation skills to get the job done flawlessly. Schon Hoeschen

ZillowVERIFIED We recently hired Laurie to sell our house and help us purchase a new one. To say we are happy with how Laurie handled the sale of our old home, and the purchase of our new home is an understatement. She truly goes above and beyond the call of duty. She even helped fix a minor repair on our water heater the night before the appraisal. She puts a lot of care into making sure the whole process goes smoothly. We would highly recommend using Laurie! ?

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie had quite the time with our seller, but we saw none of it. She absorbed all of the stress caused by the process so we had an easy and seamless home buying experience. She helped my mother-in-law buy her home and wed heard great things so we decided to go with her, and are very happy with our decision. Wed recommend her to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie is a top notch realtor. She knows the area and market. I found my buying experience went faster than I had expected. She took care of all the loose ends and brought the deal together. I would use her again in a heartbeat.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie found us just by chance, our regular agent was out of town and sent her. What a find!!! We instantly had a great feeling about her! She was up beat, friendly and a joy to be around! She took all our house info and within a day was sending us houses that was exactly what we were looking for. She was always available, and was right on top of daily new listings. Even after she found us our perfect home, she would find the time to give us updates throughout the loan & closing process, she even helped up find a wonderful Mortgage Broker! Thanks

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie Evans Michel was so easy, stress free and professional to work with when my husband and I bought our first home 18 years ago that we used her again. I can not say enough of how much we trust and appreciate everything she helped us through selling and buying our homes. From giving us the best tips to sale our home to directing us to the best home and neighborhood for us and our girls. Laurie went above and beyond for us each time. Whenever we hear someone buying or selling we ALWAYS recommend her. We are proud to say that we have multiple friends and family have also used her and are also very happy customers.

ZillowVERIFIED Steve and I asked Laurie to help us look for a piece of property we could eventually build on. In her infinite wisdom, she brought us to a place in Mulino. This was October 2012. Steves jaw dropped as he looked at the barn and my jaw dropped as I looked at the house. We were standing at the kitchen counter and Laurie says to me this is your home. She was absolutely right but it didnt come easy. We made an offer, they countered, we countered back and then chickened out. After playing with the numbers we offered them their counter but they had decided not to sell. Laurie made it very clear to their Realtor, that we wanted this home and once they were ready to call her. She followed up multiple times, making sure they didnt forget us. Toward the end of January they called and accepted our offer. Our home was immediately put on the market. Laurie said I should paint the green walls neutral, which I didnt do, and the house didnt sell. We painted those walls and in a week received a full price offer. (always listen to your Realtors recommendations) What defines an exceptional Realtor is how they react and respond when things go sideways. Our buyers Realtor and lender were a nightmare, starting with changing the closing date SIX times. They just couldnt get their act together. Im not sure Ive ever seen so many paperwork changes. Laurie kept me calm when I was afraid we were going to lose the house we were buying, and getting so frustrated at the ineptness of the buyers lender, that I wanted to scream. We were trying to close this before Laurie had major surgery. Laurie tried to explain this to them, and they didnt care. So.....Laurie had her surgery, all 14 hours of it on a Friday. On Monday, the lender wants to close on Wednesday. This time she says its for sure. She needs the paperwork to change the date..again. Laurie gets her the paperwork, FROM HER HOSPITAL BED! Did we close Wednesday? No we did not. Didnt close Thursday either and the loan on our rate lock expired on Friday. More paperwork demanded of Laurie, that she immediately turned around, FROM HER HOSPITAL BED!! We finally closed at 5:30pm on Friday, April 17th. I know of no one else that would have done what Laurie did to get this deal to go through. Not only is she unbelievably wonderful, but her knowledge of the business is excellent. She is patient and understanding when youre ready to have a meltdown. We are so grateful and happy, she found and put us in our new home.

ZillowVERIFIED I have had the best experiences with Laurie! She made searching for a home so much fun- we both love to see houses and as soon as any new homes fitting our criteria popped up, she was setting up viewings and even taking us back to one property more than once. Laurie has so much energy, a fabulous sense of humor and is helpful and honest. I appreciated her expertise and knowledge of the entire process- from listings to inspections and financing...its so much to try to comprehend but she was patient and happy to break it down for us. I will use Laurie without hesitation in any future home buying or selling and highly recommend her to family and friends.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie is great! Every time Ive wanted to see a house shes been available to show it to me . . . even after she had foot surgery and was on crutches! Any time a new listing was posted, and it was in my price range, Laurie would send me the information right away. Shes very responsive and personable. Id highly recommend her! Keep up the good work Laure!

ZillowVERIFIED What a delightful person to work with. Laurie has helped us sell two homes and buy three homes. Laurie knew what we were looking for and was able to quickly set up appointments as soon as houses appeared on the market. She was happy to take us to as many houses as we wanted to look at even taking us back a second time. Laurie knows how important this investment is so she gives you plenty of time. She keeps your best interest in mind, she is honest not pushy. We have recommended her to family and friends and they have been just as happy as we are.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie made the home buying experience fun and exciting for me, not once, but twice! When things came up that could easily cause stress or anxiety, she was quick to explain things to me and help me understand the situation. She was spontaneous, personable and always willing to go the extra mile in helping me find the perfect home two times around. I look forward to working with her again someday, when I am ready for my next nest!

ZillowVERIFIED I had just turned 40 and was buying a house for the first time. I was also qualifying for the first time home buyers program. Laurie was fantastic! I would email her listings that I wanted to look at and she would print them out and off we would go. Very patient with me and very knowledgeable about what I was looking for. In the end, she found me a great townhouse, called for the home inspection and within a few weeks I was a new home owner. I have known Laurie for years and would recommend her to anyone. She makes the home buying process a fun experience instead of a stressful one.

ZillowVERIFIED I chose Laurie due to her experience and willingness to be flexible. She made a 2 hour drive so we could look at homes on the Oregon coast. When I mentioned that I loved the homes decor of the 2nd house we saw, she advised that we could put in an offer including the furnishings. We would never have thought of that. The best thing was that the sellers accepted the offer. When the inspection was done and uncovered a variety of repair issues, Laurie advised that we could make a lower offer to offset for the repairs; which was accepted by the way. (great negotiating skills.) Laurie made the entire process easy and fair. I cant thank her enough.

Review for Member: Laurie Mischel
ZillowVERIFIED Laurie was such a pleasure to work with in buying our first home! Regardless of the fact that we really had no idea what area of town we were looking to buy in, topped with the rush of wanting to find something quickly during the holidays, Laurie went out of her way (literally!) to show us homes in every area that felt like a possible match for our family and our budget. She was encouraging and offered support and bits of advice only when solicited by us. She was very open and knowledgeable on the process, answering our many questions and making homebuying much more fun and easy than we had dreamed of. Laurie was very quick to respond to our many emails and phone calls, always patient and happy to help. Lauries years of experience were so helpful and apparent when she called upon previous relationships with her fellow realtors and others in the industry. We could not have been more happy with the experience and look forward to someday looking to her when we are ready to purchase again! So glad that we had a great referral that led us her way to begin with!

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie was/is FANTASTIC. She made first time home buying a breeze. We expected our short sale to take up to six months if not longer. With her help we were able to close on our house within three. Never was she pushy nor was she more interested in making a sale. She genuinely cared about what we were looking for in a house and what our expectations were.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie has been our go-to for any questions, concerns, etc. for all of our home buying experiences. Even in the in between she is quick to show us an intriguing listing or answer an off-beat question. To say we trust Laurie is an understatement. She is real, honest, extremely responsive and hardworking. Even in difficult situations she has helped lead us down the right path. I have and will continue to both use her and recommend her to others.

ZillowVERIFIED We have used Laurie Mischel on 3 occasions and she has come through for us each and every time. First time she helped us sell was to market one of our parents homes, that took one day. Second time she helped us sell our home, at the start of the recession in 2008, that took all of 3 days to get a full price offer and sale; then she represented us in the purchase of our new home that we bought for $30,000 below the asking price.Laurie is knowledgeable about real estate and has a clear understanding of what it takes to both buy and sell in all kinds of market conditions. On top of all that knowledge, she is simply a wonderful person to be around and to work with - she will not disappoint and my wife and I both would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie helped my husband and I sell our home and buy a new one 2 years ago. We put an offer on a new construction home and she had our home listed the next day. We had a showing the first and second day. An offer came in after the second showing (before the sign even went up in the yard) and ultimately the sale went through and we got the new construction home we put our offer on. We used the lender Laurie recommended and he was great. Her knowledge of the business helped with the pursuance of the overall transactions. Heidi and Stave Karussos

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie has been a personal friend for years. She knew my dream to build a home and found me the perfect lot. Her knowledge of negotiations helped us purchase the lot with several other offers on the table. The next few years both of our sons bought homes with her as their realtor. She is always ready and willing to show a house and we looked at many, looking for the right house at the right price for each son who definitely had different tastes. Laurie just loves houses and she loves people and that makes her the perfect realtor. She was meant to sell houses and She often says that. I have recommended her to many others who have also found her to be a realtor with integrity and enthusiasm.

ZillowVERIFIED The first time buying a house was pretty overwhelming until I met Laurie. She was friendly, positive and with lots of information. She put in touch with a loan officer so I could get pre-approved and ready to go. She showed me lots of homes and kept me up to date with any changes and made sure I knew about all the new ads in my range. She answered all of my email very quickly and everything went very smoothly. I would recommend Laurie to anyone on market to bur or sell.

ZillowVERIFIED Laurie helped my husband and I find our first home. We could not be happier with her expertise and knowledge of the market. As first time home buyers we had no experience and had several questions. Laurie is quick to respond and is very clear and detailed with her answers. Laurie is also great to be around. Her warm and bubbly personality is contagious. Buying a home is stressful, and Laurie has way to make you feel comfortable about your decision and the home buying process. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is an amazing Realtor.
