Shea was absolutely wonderful to work with! Her knowledge and expertise made me feel at ease and comfortable as she walked me through every step of the process. It's because of Shea that I received 3 offers just 2 days after listing it. She communicated with me daily during the entire process and always made sure that my needs and specifications were met. And I couldn't be happier with the outcome.
Relocating from out of town is never easy, especially in a competitive market, but Shea made it feel manageable. She knew the neighborhoods inside and out, communicated with us every step of the way, and helped us put in strong, confident offers without missing a beat. We're so grateful for her knowledge and guidance.
Shea did a fantastic job selling our house within a week of listing it! We had a very tight turnaround with finding a new house after selling and Shea was up for the job. Throughout the process of selling our house and then buying a new house, Shea was very knowledgeable, helpful and responsive. She's also a joy to be around :) I would highly recommend Shea to sell or represent you in buying your next home.
We recently purchased a home in Portland with Shea Steel representing us as the buyers, and we were extremely impressed with her professionalism throughout the transaction. Her attention to detail was evident at every stage, from carefully analyzing the property and disclosures to tracking deadlines and ensuring nothing slipped through the cracks. Her communication was clear, timely, and organized, which made a complex process feel smooth and well coordinated. Sheas negotiating skill was a major asset in helping us secure the home on terms that felt fair and favorable. She navigated inspection issues and contract details calmly and creatively, always coming to us with practical options and thoughtful guidance. It was clear she knows how to advocate strongly for her clients while keeping the tone collaborative and constructive with the other side. It was also obvious that Shea has a deep knowledge of the Portland real estate market, from pricing and neighborhood nuances to current buyer expectations. Her advice on offer strategy, contingencies, and value helped us feel confident at every step and ultimately land a home that was an excellent fit. Based on our experience working with her as our buyers agent, we would not hesitate to recommend Shea to anyone looking for a skilled, detail-oriented, and market-savvy Realtor in Portland.
Shea has done it again! My husband and I have reached out to Shea our second time around to look for our forever home and we have found it. After seeing few homes, we have found the most amazing home. She was able to get us to see our home within three hours of finding it on Zillow. She wrote up an offer within the same day and after a few changes back and forth she got us the house. We are so thankful for her amazing work. Thank you!
From start to finish my experience with Shea Steel was both professional and great. The initial meeting and giving me her opinion on the sale price of the house was informative and understandable. I had lived in my house for 40 years so getting into the market was tauting. Shea kept me informed every step of the process. Letting me know when there was a showing to when it maybe time to re-evaluate the sale price when the market was slowing down. When an offer was given, Shea was readily available to explain items that I did not understand. She would lead me every step of the way. Her advice on counter offers was needed and much appreciated. You will not go wrong if you pick Shea as your real estate representative. Thank you Shea for a wonderful experience.
I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Shea! From start to finish, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to make the entire process smooth and stress-free, keeping me informed at every step and advocating for my best interests. Her attention to detail, market expertise, and genuine care made all the difference. I couldnt be happier with the results and highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
I worked with Shea to find an investment property in Portland. She is/was knowledgeable about the various neighborhoods and made recommendations that helped to steer my investment. Her communication is clear and thorough, every question I had was answered, which made me feel comfortable. I loved working with Shea and would again!
We could not have chosen a better realtor for ourselves. Shea was outstanding. Shea gently directed us on changes needed in our house prior to posting it for sale, helped us hone in on the proper asking price, was continually communicative with us during the process, and was creative in getting our deal to a successful close. On top of that, she was personable and fun! We highly recommend her!
Shea stuck with us in a tough condo market and got our sale across the finish line before taxes were due again. She has a great network of contractors that helped complete repairs to close in two weeks.
Working with Shea was amazing! She found us our house quickly, and fought for us to get the best deal possible. We definitely work with Shea again in the future for our next purchase.
Working with Shea was a dream! My husband and I felt very overwhelmed coming into the process of buying a home as first time buyers but Shea immediately made us feel at ease. She was always checking in with us, answering all of our questions, and making sure we knew exactly what was going on during the process. I would highly recommend her anyone!
This is the second time I've worked with Shea, and couldn't recommend her more highly! She is extremely responsive and an excellent problem solver. Her years working in the field really show, as she has an extensive network of folks to help with each step of the home buying or selling process. She made sure to understand my needs and preferences, always advocating for my best interests. Shea explained everything to me at the level of detail I needed and was patient, prompt, and accurate answering any questions I had. She was sensitive to the emotional aspects of the transaction and did a lot of footwork to help reduce the stress associated with selling my mom's home after she passed. I felt genuinely cared for throughout the process and got the outcome I needed as quickly as was possible. I'll admit that I have extremely high expectations for the professionals I hire, and I will always choose Shea for any real estate needs I have.
Does Shea really need another five star review? I mean, she's already got a whole constellation! But nonetheless, here's another one. Shea did an outstanding job in helping me find a place in Portland while living in another state. She was knowledgable and responsive, and best for me, continued to work after the sale. For all I know she's still working :-)
Shea was excellent. She had updated local knowledge that was vital for us as new residents in the area, and she worked throughout the transaction to keep everything on track, all within a short time period!
This is the second time we have worked with Shea and it has been an absolute pleasure. At every step of the process, she knew exactly what we needed to do. Her advice on repairs, staging and negotiation of the sale of our house were spot on. The purchase of our new home was extremely challenging but Shea handled everything we encountered flawlessly and with a smile on her face. Even after the sale was over, she continued to address issues that arose. Buying and selling a home was a much more emotionally and mentally draining process than I anticipated. There were countless times I unloaded on her and she always knew just what to say to deescalate my emotions. I couldn't recommend Shea enough!
Shea was absolutely amazing with our little family. We started the process of buying a home and it was overwhelming in so many ways. Shea was with us every step of the way! She was always available when we needed her and she wasnt trying to sell us on something she knew wouldnt be a great fit. Shea was also amazing with our little chaotic toddler! We bought our house in Feb 2025 and couldnt be happier. We didnt just gain an agent, we gained a friend!
Shea was great to work with! She listened to our criteria and helped us navigate the process as first time home buyers. She was very helpful and fielded all of our many questions!
Its a pleasure working with Shea. Shes helped us with the purchase of two homes. Her professionalism is consistent, and communication is excellent. Her patience was greatly appreciated as we searched for the right home. She was always on time for appointments and provided reliable advice. Her expertise came through as she worked with all parties involved, making sure all the proper documentation was filed, arranging home inspections and keeping us informed along the way. Thank you for all your hard work, we appreciated it!
As first-time homebuyers, we could not have asked for a better agent than Shea! She understood our needs better than we did. In every home we toured, she knew exactly what details to look for and was able to help us understand the upkeep and renovation that would be necessary when owning each home. Ultimately, we ended up with the perfect starter home for us and our family in an area we adore. Shea is knowledgeable, responsive, assertive, and beyond all just a pleasure to spend time with! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone I know.
Shea is a great realtor. We bought our last two houses from her. Now that we are remodeling our current home her knowledge of the market is helping us make the best decisions for our remodel.
Shea was attentive, available, just the right amount of hand holding, and I knew she was genuinely interested in my happiness as a home owner. Over a month since I moved in and she continues to check in on things. I'm so grateful she was my house buying buddy. It was also super fun to hang out with Shea. Shes personable, funny, witty, and wicked smart. My new home is amazing and Shea made the process easier and enjoyable. I'm a lucky lady!
Shea was incredible to work with from beginning to end, helping us to relocate from Texas to Oregon, and buying a house site unseen so easy! We put our complete trust in her. Shea was prompt and responsive. She helped us understand the process of buying a home, especially from out of state. She was available and flexible with schedules and time difference, taking us through virtual tours and the walk-through. Shea valued our opinions and it truly felt like she was interested in our well-being. Shea was incredibly supportive, and genuinely dedicated and excited about our move. 10/10 would recommend working with Shea!
I had an outstanding experience working with my realtor, Shea Steele of Re/max Realty! From the beginning her knowledge and experience were evident. The selling experience was nothing short of excellent. My property was listed at a reasonable price point, and I was thrilled to receive offers that exceeded my expectations. I truly believe that Shea's strategic approach to marketing interprofessional insights played a significant role in achieving such a successful outcome. In addition, she's highly experienced and always maintained a positive attitude which made the entire process smoother. Equally impressive to me was her responsiveness. She answered my questions quickly and ensured I understood everything before moving forward. Shea took the time to help me understand the various options available and guided me through the pros and cons of each choice. This level of support made me feel confident and informed every step of the way. If you're looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable realtor who will go above and beyond for you, Shea is the ideal realtor to work with -
This is my second time working with Shea on purchasing a new home. In every step of the process, I felt valued and that my needs were her top priority. Shea has a wealth of experience in real estate and I look forward to working with her again in the future.
We couldnt be happier with the exceptional service provided by Shea during our recent real estate journey. Shea sold both our condo and our house, and she guided us through the entire process of building our new home. What truly stood out was her proactive communication. Whenever challenges aroseaEUR"whether it was a negotiation issue or a detail in the building processaEUR"Shea was right there, promptly reaching out to the necessary parties and keeping us informed. Her ability to handle any situation with grace and efficiency alleviated so much of the stress that often comes with buying and selling. Thanks to Shea's dedication, we now have a beautiful new home that perfectly fits our needs. We wholeheartedly recommend Shea to anyone looking for a reliable and passionate realtor. Her commitment to excellence and her genuine care for her clients make her a standout in the industry. Thank you, Shea, for making this journey a positive and memorable one!
Shea helped us purchase our first Portland home in 2014 and ten years later, we're still utilizing Shea's expertise and experience, She recently helped us identify and purchase two rental properties. Shea is responsive, consistent and an absolute joy to work with. We are going to continue to use Shea and recommend her to all our friends and family. I can't imagine working with anyone else.
We love working with Shea! As a realtor, she is always responsive, available, and ready to do whatever is necessary to help us through this sticky process of buying a home. She was there whenever we needed her and brought with her a wealth of resources and assistance. As a human, she is just the loveliest and kindest person. We would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!
Shea was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. She answered any and all questions, and replied to correspondence quickly and often outside of business hours. She aEURoeknows a guyaEUR? for just about any kind of inspection, repair, or service, and helped us newbies to the process understand all the ins and outs of buying a house.
Shea was an outstanding resource for us as first time buyers. We told her what we were looking for and she helped us find a beautiful home that fit our needs and wants. She was always a text or phone call away if we had a question, seven days a week, and she would get back to us very quickly. We cant thank her enough for helping us find our home and we highly recommend her to everyone!
Shea is the best realtor I have ever worked with and I have bought and sold several properties over the years. She has extensive experience in the industry and in the Portland region. As a newcomer to Portland, she made it easy to figure out what neighborhoods to see and helped me sort out the best place to buy. She is amazingly thorough, prompt with answering any questions and detailed. I recommend her fully and if I am ever looking to buy or sell again, I will be calling her.
Working with Shea was a great experience. Through the highs and lows of the house-buying process, Shea kept a cool, calm demeanor which allowed us to trust the process. Shea excelled at representing our wants and needs as first-time home buyers and I don't think we would have ended up in the house of our dreams without her help and guidance. We highly recommend Shea!
Shea Steel and her team were phenomenal! Her responsiveness was incredible which made the selling process so easy and helped us understand what was happening every step of the way. Shea has 22+ years experience, is very well versed at dealing with other real estate brokers and her cool, calm mindset kept our anxiety low and gave us the confidence she would get the job done aEUR" and she did! Shea and her team's promptness, knowledge of the market, strategic mindset, kindness, good energy made a potentially chaotic sell process simple. I am not sure how you can have a better agent than Shea and the entire team. If you ever need to buy or sell , we would highly recommend, Shea Steel.
After reading many reviews, my daughter decided to use Shea as a realtor and I am so glad she did! Shea was professional, respectful, listened to my daughters needs and guided us through the entire process of purchasing a condo. My daughter arrived in Portland from another state and Shea took her to see a variety of condos within her budget. Once we decided to purchase a condo, Shea completed paperwork efficiently, helped us find a title company, was an excellent resource for finding individuals and companies to work on the condo according to my daughters interior design and also making sure everything was safe when Shea connected us with an inspector. Shea organized all appointments in a timely manner for the condo to be ready for my daughter's arrival. She made the entire process seamless, and we really appreciate all of the extra things that she has done to make this journey a wonderful experience. We highly recommend Shea to be your realtor! You will be so glad you did!!!!!!
Shea did a wonderful job getting our house on the market and closed. From getting the property ready for photos to getting us across the finish line Shea was an asset and partner throughout the entire experience. I would recommend Shea to anyone looking to buyer or sell in the area.
I really can't say enough about Shea. She is such a joy to work with and made the whole process so simple. My partner and I were first time home buyers, and having a skilled veteran like Shea in our corner eased our fears and got us painlessly though the buying process. She made such valuable suggestions and was on top of everything from tours to inspections. We won't ever work with another Realtor here in Portland - she's the best!

My sister and I had the pleasure and indeed the privilege of working with Shea in our recent home purchase in Portland. We were moving from another state and planning on doing most of our home shopping remotely. We also had a list of rather specific and unusual requirements for our future home. We interviewed several agents, but Shea stood out from the pack immediately. She was completely comfortable helping us buy remotely and made us feel that this approach was something that could indeed work for us. She came across as experienced, competent, and very kind. A promise of potential she delivered on in spades through our home buying experience. Its thanks to Sheas real estate savvy and efforts that we are now sitting in the home of our dreams in Portland. She sent the house over to us, and we did a Facetime tour initially, then we came up to Portland and toured the house physically as well. Shea did such a great job pointing things out on our video tour, that I honestly could have bought the house with nothing but the Facetime tour, and had zero regrets, but we were going to be in town anyway, so the stars aligned for us seeing it in person. We fell in love with the Portland home immediately. It met all our unusual requirements, and I honestly cannot imagine a home more ideally suited to my tastes. But I was still in the process of getting my house ready to sell in California aEUR" which is to say, it wasnt even listed yet. So, we knew the odds of our offer getting accepted were slim to none. But Shea gave us excellent advice on how we could sweeten our deal to make a longer contingent offer more appealing to the sellers (without throwing a ton of extra money in). And lo and behold, her advice paid off. Against all odds, our offer was accepted. The sellers agent even told us that one of the offers theyd had on the table was a cash offer. And you might think thats the end of the story, but theres more to say. Throughout the negotiation phase and after, I have never had an agent work as hard for me as Shea. She responded to every communication via any medium with alacrity. She was up late at night, emailing the other agent, and putting together counteroffers. I remember the night we were driving back from Portland after seeing the house, she sent out one of our counteroffers around midnight. Since we were remote, Shea was also the one that did our home inspections aEUR" she set up video calls with us after each inspection so we could hear the inspectors thoughts personally. She met with decking vendors on our behalf, to get us quotes. My sisters comment about Shea was that she treated us less like clients and more like family, and I couldnt agree more. She worked so hard and went so far out of her way for us, and we are eternally grateful. If you are reading this review, I know its likely you are still shopping for an agent. If that is the case, I really cannot recommend Shea more highly. She is in a whole different league than any agent Ive worked with before aEUR" she is an absolute professional and someone you can trust implicitly with every aspect of your home purchase and sale. I wish you all good fortune in your own real estate endeavors.
Shea was truly exceptional. She made the selling process so easy and helped me understand what was happening every step of the way.A Shea was ALWAYS available for questions and home tours. Her responsiveness was incredible. Sheas cool, calm mindset kept my anxiety low during an untimely downturn in the market which gave me the confidence that she would get the job done aEUR" and she did!A I am eternally grateful that she helped me sell my home! I couldnt be more happy with the service I received from Shea and HIGHLY recommend her!!
Shea was great to work with. Very hard working and accommodating. She made arrangements for house hunting based on our schedules and was very honest about her opinions which were based on her experience and expertise :)
As first time home buyers we were so happy to have found Shea. She made sure to go through everything with us step by step and made us feel confident in the process. Shea is an excellent communicator and a seasoned relator who truly understands the Portland real estate market. She responded to all of our inquiries within minutes and was able to get the first offer we put out accepted. I think the mark of a true real estate professional is their ability to simplify the process for their client and Shea was able to do just that. Thank you so much Shea for all your hard work!
If only everything in life could be as simple and worry-free as this process was working with Shea! And I was in a different state! So professional and pleasant, she kept me updated throughout! Shea is the real deal!
Once again, Shea Steel totally came through for us! After working with her 6 years ago, we were ready for a new home. This go, we were selling and buying simultaneously, and between that and how wild the PDX market is, we entered the process with a lot of anxiety and apprehension. Shea only projects calm, confidence, and positive momentum the whole time though! Shea did an awesome work helping us stage our house while we were still living there and helped us land a great purchase. She also gave us smart, savvy advice on how to navigate our purchase of a new home and remarkably we got the first house we put an offer on! She and our awesome mortgage broker worked awesomely together and actually got us closed on both properties so that we have a seamless transition. We are so happy with how everything worked out. Absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a real pro in this market, and a million thanks, Shea!
Shea just helped me buy my first home and the process was so much easier than I thought it would be! I can't recommend her enough! The process was really fast, she was very responsive to all of our emails and texts and I never felt like we had to wait to hear back from her. We found our house within just a few weeks of looking. I never felt rushed, she let us set the pace. Shea was patient and answered all of our questions and explained all of the details to first time home buyers. She took us to look at lots of different houses and helped us narrow down exactly what we were looking for. She was proactive once she knew some details of what we wanted and sent us lots of listings to look at. Shea also had a really good instinct and a clear knowledge of this market. She knew how much a house would go for over listing, how long something would be on the market, even how much life a roof had in it, lots of details about home value and neighborhoods. I just felt like she knew exactly what to do. We had an excellent first experience with Shea and trust her completely. We love our house and feel like we got a great deal on it. I would work with her again in a heartbeat!
Shea was exceptionally helpful from start to finish. It was my first time buying a house and she supported me through the whole process truly going above and beyond the scope of her role. She helped find backup financing at the last minute and had connections for all of the vendors needed along the way. I really couldnt have asked for a better realtor. I highly recommend Shea for anyone looking for a true partner in this process.
It was a quick search to find was I was looking for. But she was always responsive and helpful! She obviously knows the market, and anticipated sewage issues, which an inspection revealed and the buyer repaired. Overall, very impressed.
I have purchased four homes in my lifetime, each as a primary residence. I have never worked with a better agent than Shea. From the first time we spoke she completely understood what I was seeking. More significantly, she was able to use my home desires to independently establish a hierarchy of the features I wanted in a home and use that to locate a home that truly was a perfect fit. I hadn't appreciated what was most important to me in a home and what was, in fact, least important to me until Shea herself ranked the features I was looking for and found me the home that I have purchased. Five stars are not enough to fully recomend Shea.
Shea was an absolute pleasure to work with during the sale of our home and ADU. She is enthusiastic, dedicated, professional, knowledgeable and experienced. Above all, Shea's communication is top notch and she thoroughly answered all of our questions through the process and helped guide us through decisions when we asked for her expert opinion. I highly recommend using Shea and would use her services again if needed in the future.
Shea was super knowledgeable, friendly and responsive as our realtor. We had a unique townhouse with very limited comparables and she was able to help us perfectly price our home. Was always quick to follow up with any questions we had. Also very organized and proactive in her market approach. Highly recommend her as a realtor!
Shea has made the process of buying our first home as easy and stress-free as it possibly could be. She has always been extremely friendly, and responsive, and has been quick to share her expertise and answer any questions we had. When looking at homes, Shea knew exactly what to look out for, and pointed out tons of smaller details/potential issues that we surely would have missed otherwise. We felt much more confident in our search with her helping guide the process, and we are extremely excited about our purchase. Would absolutely recommend working with Shea!
