I had such a great experience working with Tatiana and can't recommend her enough. She was incredibly responsive, organized, detail-oriented, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. She was also genuinely fun to spend time with! One of the things I appreciated most was how knowledgeable she was about both older homes and the specific areas I was looking inaEUR"Vancouver and North Portland. Her experience with older houses was especially valuable, and I always felt like she knew what to look for and what questions to ask. She was also incredibly proactive and seemed to anticipate what I would need before I even thought to ask. I could tell that she genuinely cared about doing a good job and took a lot of pride in her work. She was thorough, dependable, and consistently on top of every detail. I also really valued her honesty and integrity. She was never afraid to give me her genuine opinion or point out potential concerns, but she did it with a level of tact and emotional intelligence that made her very easy to trust and work with. I never felt pressured or like she was simply trying to get me to buy a houseaEUR"she genuinely seemed invested in helping me make the right decision.
Tatiana was an absolute pleasure to work with as my real estate agentaEUR"extremely knowledgeable and unwavering in supporting me through every hiccup. she was refreshingly direct about the true value of the home and what needed to be done. I communicated my exact preferences and budget, and she ensured we stayed aligned on those details. When I considered stepping outside my budget, she calmly walked me through how such a change could impact my life balance. This journey wasnt about her commissionaEUR"it was about supporting me along the way, and I'm grateful beyond words. I wouldnt want anyone else on this journey with me but Tatiana. thank you for my gifts!
Tatiana guided us through the sale of an older home. Her patience, expertise, and professionalism made what seemed an insurmountable task possible. We are happy with the final result and can't recommend her enough.
I cant recommend Tatiana enough! I started this process feeling overwhelmed, but Tatiana turned it into a dream experience. She is incredibly responsive and was always there to provide answers and peace of mind whenever I needed it. She truly went above and beyond to represent me, and her dedication is the reason we found the perfect home so quickly. More than just a professional, shes become a friend I trust. If you want someone who genuinely cares and gets results, Tatiana is the best in the business. Thank you for everything Tatiana!
After interviewing several competent realtors, I felt that Tatiana Xenelis had what I wanted in an agent. One of her greatest strengths was her ability to understand and recognize her clients expectations. I was not disappointed. From our initial communication, she demonstrated confidence in the process, from preparation and marketing of the property to the final negotiations. To be sure, there were some bumps along the way, but in each instance, her ability to find solutions resulted in our being able to move forward. For instance, Tatiana demonstrated seasoned negotiation skills, calmly guiding me through a process that I found overwhelming at times. When there was a last-minute, unexpected requirement from the buyers lender, her reaction was very solution oriented. She demonstrated urgency in outlining a way forward then followed through on the final work needed, meeting contractors and wrapping up details with several parties, to ensure we crossed the finish line. I would recommend Tatiana and happily work with her again!
Tatiana supported my husband and I in our first home sale. We were impressed by Tatiana's attention to detail and clear organized steps which helped put us at ease. This was critical for us as we were able to trust Tatiana to skillfully handle the details of the sale, as my husband and I needed to be out of the state during the sale and escrow period. Tatiana did a great job at keeping things organized and on target, and her clear and timely communication kept us informed even from a distance. We also appreciated her eye and advice related to improving our landscaping for curb appeal and improvements that could be made to make the house more appealing to buyers. The house sold faster than we could have dreamed!
I first started working with Tatiana in October 2021, one year after I bought a home sight unseen during the pandemic and realized I didn't like it. She was incredibly easy to work with and professional from day one all the way through to my home's eventual sale, which was difficult because my home had an undisclosed foundation problem that prompted two offers to fall through. Tatiana was calm, reassuring and realistic throughout the whole process - helping me line up professionals to get my house into the best possible shape for selling, setting a realistic price, staging my house and completing the sale. I had an excellent experience and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in Portland. She really is the best!
Tatiana was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and professional through the entirety of my home buying experience. She was happy to talk about house buying when I was still in the dreaming phase. When I was finally able to buy, she jumped into action and took care of every little detail. I felt secure in her judgement, and proud that she was my agent. I will enthusiastically recommend her to all my friends on the house-buying journey.
Tatiana was great with explaining parts of the process we did not understand and aiding us along with our first home buying experience! I really appreciated how quickly she answered texts and calls. I also appreciated how quickly we were able to schedule viewings to make sure we got to see the homes we thought might be a great fit. Her help was essential and she made the effort to understand what we wanted in a house. Overall a great experience for an ordinarily stressful venture!
Tatiana did an amazing job helping find our first home! She was responsive to what we were looking for, gave outstanding services, and very knowledgeable about the area and things to look out for. Throughout our search, she didn't waste our time showing houses that didn't match our specifications and was always available to answer questions. We were able to find a house pretty quick and she even provided some moving boxes to help us move!
Tatiana was recommended to us by a local friend as we were moving to Portland from another state. My wife and I knew little about the Portland market except that it was VERY difficult. We had the added challenge of finding something that would work for my mother who was joining our household. Tatiana was very professional and organized from the beginning, and immediately scheduled a video call to discuss the wild housing market in Portland and what it would mean for us and what kind of price ranges to expect for what we were needing. She had a great deal of info on the nuances of the various neighborhoods in Portland. She thankfully stopped us from making an emotional decision on a house (what if we cant find anything else!!) when we really just needed to be patient and look at more houses to know what we really wanted. Once we did find the perfect place she helped us make an offer that was quickly accepted. She made all of the required inspections a breeze for us (as we were still living a state away and super stressed about selling that house) and really stood out with her impressive knowledge and understanding of structures, potential issues, and codes, to name a few. We couldnt have asked for a better experience in landing an amazing home in an incredibly tough market. We will definitely be using her again in the future!
I worked with Tatiana to buy my townhome in Vancouver at the peak of the market. From the beginning, she guided me through the entire buying process, explaining what was happening in the market and communicating each step of the way. I was busy for most of the transaction and trusted Tatiana to help me through inspections and negotiate repairs and replacement of a hot water tank. She was very responsive and dedicated to helping me get the best deal I could given the competitiveness of the market. I highly recommend her to anyone buying or selling in the Portland/Vancouver market. Rafael Mendoza Ruiz.
We worked with Tatiana to buy our home in NE Portland at the peak of the market. I appreciated her communication and professionalism in explaining the market conditions. She was very responsive and dedicated to helping us navigate through the inspection process. We really trusted her opinions and valued her feedback. She showed skill in negotiating on our behalf. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone buying or selling in the Portland/Vancouver market.
I chose Tatiana from all the realtors I interviewed because of her strategic mindset, clear and kind communication, and her ability to describe market dynamics (in a very crazy market!) with the perfect blend of optimism and realism. Throughout our time working together, from that initial interview through to closing and beyond, she didn't disappoint. She's a calm presence, a fantastic listener, and a very capable, available, creative, and proactive agent who helped me seamlessly navigate tricky times and buy a sweet home that works in every way for my family.
Tatiana worked seamlessly with us to sell our mothers home taking the timeto assess our situation, needs, desires, and timeline. She always kept us informed and updated and handled the entire process efficiently with kindness and professionalism.She was a pleasure to work with and serves her clients and prospective buyers well.
We were referred to Tatiana from a friend of ours--we lived out of state, but needed an agent that could make this process of selling our condo super easy. Tatiana did EXACTLY that. She is polite, friendly, makes good recommendations, does question everything and she came to us when it was important. She coordinated everything on our behalf and made this process as easy as we hoped for. In the end, she negotiated an above list price offer, and we were absolutely delighted with that. I would strongly recommend Tatiana as your agent and, if we are ever in the market in Portland again, she will be the first person we call.Thank you, Tatiana!
Tatiana represented us in selling our Vancouver home. We started off doing some of it ourselves but definitely needed some professional help. She was willing to jump in and help us, even though our strategy was a bit unconventional. During the process Tatiana was available for every single question and step as we went along. She was available practically 24/7 and was efficient, professional, and very competent- which was so much appreciated, especially in this day and age. She communicated clearly and concisely all throughout the process as well. My husband and I would highly recommend Tatiana for all real estate needs and trust her implicitly
We were referred to Tatiana by our mortgage lender and had a good experience with her. Were first time home buyers and were looking during a fast paced and confusing market and Tatiana gave us the benefit of her knowledge and experience. She brought calm energy to our viewings and was very patient with all of our questions. This was an important quality for us not having experience buying a house before, but wanting to make as informed choices as possible. She was also flexible and responsive whenever we needed to communicate with her. I would recommend Tatiana to any first time buyers put there.

My wife Tracy and I moved from the Houston, TX area to the Portland/Vancouver area in January 2021. Several months before moving, we reached out to a previous good realtor we had worked with in AZ. She recommended Tatiana. We had a phone conversation in which we outlined what we were looking for. Tatiana was professional and courteous and clearly knowledgeable about the market.Once we arrived in town and started looking at houses, it became clear that Tatiana really has the ability to tune-in on what her customers are looking for, and that she also had an incredible awareness of what houses would actually go for in the crazy market conditions during the pandemic. Tatiana's communication remained very consistent- she got back to us quickly during business hours, and had a sense of urgency when it came to scheduling visits to homes we wanted to see. On the offer that finally got accepted Tatiana went out of her way to get a showing scheduled fast and helped us put together a strong offer as quickly as possible! It was 100% the house we wanted and if itc weren't for Tatiana it definitely wouldn't be ours!It's worth mentioning that it wasn't only her communication with us, but also her perception of what sellers wanted and her professionalism with other realtors. Just across the board a great person to work with.I can't recommend Tatiana strongly enough, she's a wonderful realtor and if we find ourselves in need of a realtor in the future she'll be the first person we call!
I was the personal representative of a friend who had passed away, and I had to sell her house. I chose Tatiana to represent me, and I made a great choice. She took care of everything that needed to be done during this difficult time for me including working with the probate lawyer. I had complete faith in her, and everything went smoothly. I would hire her to sell my own house.
Tatiana is amazing at what she does. Shes knowledgeable and happy to answer all the questions you have. She kept us updated every step of the way and made sure we were always taken care of. We would highly recommend Tatiana to anyone and would definitely work with her again! Many thanks again and again Tatiana!
Tatiana brings wealths of knowledge and experience to the table. She worked with me on an investment project and her input throughout the process and handling of the sale was invaluable. She communicates very well, and understands how to handle a real estate transaction from beginning to end. Thank you Tatiana.

Tatiana was my agent for selling my home in north Portland and years later has helped me purchase in Milwaukie, OR. I appreciate her her candor, honesty, and large support team she has built (I.e., mortgage companies, inspectors, estate lawyers...). I trust her to help me keep my expectations in line with realities as well as to hold my best interest at heart.
My husband and I were lucky to have Tatiana as our agent to sell our home in Portland, OR and purchase new home in Camas, WA. Tatiana is dedicated, honest & strategic - which can be tough to find in Real Estate agents. In short, we always felt protected by her and she was extremely responsive to any and all questions. There is no one we would recommend more with the very delicate and personal experience of selling our home of 5 years and purchasing a new one. She exceeded our expectations and continues to go above and beyond for us, even after closing.
Tatiana was my husband's and my realtor in the transaction of the sale of our first home. She was truly professional and honest about the things we needed to do to get the house in the best condition for the best buyers. We had a lot of questions, since we had never sold a house before, but Tatiana was most helpful throughout the process. We are extremely happy with the results!
Tatiana is amazing! I highly highly highly recommend her as she is quick to respond, knowledgeable, friendly, professional and wants to make sure you are happy and all your questions are answered throughout the entire process. She can be involved if you demand it or she will let you take the lead if that's how you like to do things. One thing I really want to emphasize beyond excellent customer service is her knowledge of the market here in the metro area. I felt like I had a real Pro working on my behalf and I will recommend her to all my friends and family. I loved looking at houses with Tatiana. I genuinely wouldn't want anybody else to show me places and I really looked forward to our meet ups. She takes into account all your needs and really wants to make sure the place is right for you. The fact is you're working with an honest, ethical professional so you get opinions and service of that magnitude. If there are problems with your dream home she'll point it out so you aren't left wondering, while simultaneously making you feel like the decision is entirely up to you. She really knows what she's doing from years of experience, the inspectors and the like she recommended where excellent and went above and beyond just like Tatiana. I felt like Tatiana cared about me getting into a place I loved as much as I did and I think that is her true gift. I love the house she helped my son and I get into and I loved working with Tatiana!
"Tatiana was such a joy to work with. She is both easy going and a hard worker which is a unique balance to strike. She was always available when I had questions as well as 'freak-outs' which, I assume, is always part of the home buying experience. It's a very personal experience to look for and purchase a house where all kinds of intimate details come into play in the process. Tatiana was a great listener with a compassionate heart and always put me at ease. I highly recommend working with her!"
Tatiana did a fantastic job helping us buy a house! We were moving back to Portland from out of state, and she was great at helping us refine our search. I ended up using Redfin to mark my favorites and write comments, since I liked the interface, and she was willing to log in and look at/comment on my tagged houses there, in addition to staying in touch by phone and email. When we were ready to make an offer, and then during the inspection/closing process, she and her team were excellent communicators and very organized. This was especially important since we were closing remotely. I highly recommend Tatiana to anyone looking for a real estate agent!!
I had the pleasure of using Tatiana to purchase my first Home. Let me just start by saying that purchasing a home is a very complicated and stressful event in anyones life, unless you hire an amazing realtor like Tatiana. Her knowledge, expertise, responsiveness and negotiating skills are fantastic. Tatiana was able to guide me through every individual process of purchasing a home with little to no stress. From my pre-approval for a loan to her handing me my keys. Tatiana guided me through every single detail and answered every single one of questions. Also, Tatiana has great communication skills and was really able individualize my experience for my needs and wants of purchasing my home. I will only use Tatiana and her team for any future sale or purchase. Dr. Adrian CC
Selling a home, in my case, my late parent's home, is always an emotional and trying experience. Thankfully, Tatiana was recommended to us and we never looked back. She made this an easy experience from the very beginning. Her advice, patience, calm manor and continuous communication regarding the sale of my parent's home (in five days, no less) will always be appreciated. Should the need arise, I will call on her again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to family and friends.
We purchased a new property and sold our existing one at the same time, using Tatiana for both. Tatiana carefully assessed the listing price for our home and worked very closely with us to ensure we did everything necessary to receive maximum value for our property. Tatiana also helped us negotiate the purchase of a property that had a couple of hurdles she guided us over... no easy feat! Tatiana is great to work with ensures all aspects of the transactions are fully communicated. Highly recommend!
Tatiana brings a wealth of knowledge about the market, market trends, and strategies for buyers and sellers alike. I felt so comfortable with her on my team. As a buyer, you' can rest assured that whatever can be gotten, from a negotiation standpoint, she will get for you! She has a lot of contacts in the industry, as well, and the whole process from referrals to a great lender, to experts in the inspection and repairs process went smoothly and confidently with Tatiana as my agent. I recommend her whole heartedly!
Tatiana was a great guide in finding a home. I wanted something unique and she was patient, insightful and persistent to help me find something I love. She helped me understand all the options available from neighborhoods to building codes. When we finally found the right place, she was great in the negotiation process. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a new home work with Tatiana.
Tatiana was a consummate professional from the first house she showed us to the day we moved in. Here knowledge of the process made home buying much less tense and problimatic.
Tatiana helped us with the purchase of one home and the sale of another within the space of a few months. It was a complicated process, but her experience, her astute reading of the local market, and her counseling skills made it much easier for us.I am certain that our house would not have sold nearly as quickly, and for as much as it did, without Tatiana guiding the process and advising us on how to prepare it for sale. Her very specific recommendations made the difference!Tatiana was patient, took the time to get to know what we were really looking for in a new home, offered advice when we needed it, and always followed through on her commitments. She is a person of integrity, and we would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Portland area.
Tatiana helped us purchase our first home and walked us through all the processes very carefully. She provided excellent advice, always answered questions in a timely manner and was unbelievably available for showings and open houses. She took her time with us, never making us feel pressured. We were able to take advantage of her negotiating experience and scored an amazing deal. Her contacts provided quick comprehensive inspections and clear reports. We could not have had a better experience and Tatiana is highly recommended!
Every real estate transaction probably comes with its own share of complications so most successful agents doubtless get fairly agile at dealing with issues as they arise. Given that as a baseline, Tatiana still managed to exceed any reasonable expectation again and again through the home sale. Every time a situation arose (and there were several), Tatiana had a clear proposed plan and a willing ear for any concerns or alternate ideas. She brought a wealth of knowledge, drive and focus, and a positive and honest outlook to bear on my transaction and although it was challenging she was able to shepherd it to conclusion despite the hurdles. I feel fortunate to have had her impeccable skills in my corner.I could not be happier with Tatiana's work on my transaction and will gladly and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in the market.
Since 2015, we've been lucky enough to work with Tatiana on nine different real estate transactions for our two-person home renovation and resale business. This includes four purchases for which she served as our buyer's broker, and five sales for which she served as the listing/seller's agent. Our work with her has mostly been in the smaller home (first-time buyer) end of the market in various different Portland neighborhoods (St Johns/Portsmouth, Kenton, and Milwaukie). Based on this long history of working together on multiple and varied purchase and sale transactions, we can happily recommend Tatiana without any hesitation to anyone seeking a really great real estate broker/agent. She truly is a superb professional. She's very experienced and savvy about the general Portland real estate market, and she knows exactly what it takes to shepherd a complex real estate transaction from beginning to end -- always with an eye on achieving an optimal outcome for her clients. She also has extremely high ethical standards and wonderful people skills, including a great sense of humor. She's timely and responsive in dealing with any questions or worries we've had, and she always does her best to ensure that transactions proceed as smoothly as possible. She's very well connected and plugged into the local Portland real estate networks, and her marketing teams and photographers have always produced very high quality publicity materials for us -- ensuring quick and successful sales in all cases. She has also offered us a lot of good advice and many good leads over the years for resources like home inspectors, appraisers, and reliable subcontractors for any repair work that needed doing. Overall, Tatiana has been a joy to work with!
I decided to hire Tatiana to help me sell my home in SE Portland when a friend recommended her to me. We met for coffee and I was impressed with her confidence and personality. She helped me make decisions about what repairs to do to get the house ready for sale at the best price the market would allow. Her communication is excellent and she always returned my calls or texts or emails quickly. She really went above and beyond what the average realtor would do for their client. She took care of so many details and she's not afraid to get her hands dirty. She literally spent a few hours weeding my yard to help make the house attractive when I was pressed for time and couldn't do it myself! She also swooped in and remedied an extremely last minute buyers demand the night before closing so I wouldn't be bothered. I really appreciate how hard she worked for me and I plan to work with her again to purchase my next home!

Tatiana is truly a unique and amazing realtor. She not only gets to know your wants and needs but also your family. She asks you questions to make sure she is finding the best fit. This is our first home buying experience and she made us feel secure and confident in the process. I loved how she would take the time to explain to us the difference in flooring or siding, for a first time home buyer that is crucial because you might not know about that kind of stuff. We were in constant contact and she responded to our questions very quickly. She is very knowledgeable and makes sure you understand the whole process. She was with us every step of the way, she even attended our escrow appointment. She became like a friend. If you are looking for a caring person that loves what they do, it would be her. I HIGHLY recommend her. We are going to recommend her to our own family members because she amazing.
Tatiana helped us sell our home. Her expertise, knowledge of the market, and responsiveness made the process as stress free and seamless as possible. She made informative recommendations and was always available to answer the plethora of questions we had. I would absolutely work with her again if we ever returned to Portland.
Before embarking on my first-time homebuying adventure, I met with multiple realtors in an attempt to find one that would be a good fit for me. Tatiana suggested a local Mexican place for our first meeting, and we were able to enjoy a lovely evening with good food and drink while talking about where I was in the process and what I had in mind. From the start, she was easy to talk to, and attentive to what I had to say. I appreciated that she was confident in her abilities and respectful of my choices, not pushy or insistent that I work with her and do things exactly her way. She was a wonderful resource and guide on this journey, and helped me find a sweet little place that I love. She helped me deal with counter-offers and advocated on my behalf for the repair addendum, while educating me on the various parts of the process. Very happy to have had Tatiana on my side!
Tatiana was wonderful. My wife and I are so happy to have found someone so trustworthy, kind, professional and knowledgeable to help us sell our home. Tatiana even helped us "break in" to our house at 11pm the night before the open house after we accidentally locked ourselves out. I would work with Tatiana again in a heart beat.
Tatiana was very helpful in handling our transaction, as we were out of state. She took care of everything to make sure the process ran smoothly. We would definitely recommend her as an agent!
Tatiana went beyond her duties every step of the way until my condo was sold. She was always available and ready to provide her expert advise and she made my life much much easier during the time it took to sell my home. Any problems that arose during the process--and there were several, she solved immediately--from providing a handy man to do quick repairs, or getting quotes from different companies, she was always hands-on. I plan on having Tatiana help me in my next purchase, and I HIGHLY recommend her. She was also VERY affordable.
Tatiana was positive, calm, efficient, and informative of the house selling process. She supported us by being a clear and concise communicator. I needed someone to help me worry about the right things and the right time - and she did just that. Tatiana was a consistent advocate and has fantastic resources when needed (and they were needed!). It was a pleasure doing business with her and will use her services again when buying my next house.
Tatiana is HANDS DOWN the best realtor in the city. Very connected, knowledgeable, kind, fights for you but also patient, calm and wise. I know a lot of realtors, but she will always, always be my one and only. Not only did she stick with me for years of trying to buy then losing jobs bc of the economy and patiently fight through bank owned property purchased, she sends out awesome tips to maintaining/improving the home, local events and networking with her other clients. She's the best of the best.
