" Excellent selling agent! Michelle was always there updating me each and ever step of my sons house. It was a pleasure having her as my listing agent, if she didn't know the answers at the moment, she would find out and get back to me. I would highly recommend her to use as an agent and would again hire her if I ever need someone to sell a house for me. I believe in this short time having her ,she is dedicated to each and every client and does what is best for them. I have never met her in person, but with many many phone calls and texting, emails I felt confident she had my back. Also I want to thank Diane a friend from Oregon who recommended her to me. "

" A few years ago Michelle helped us sell our home. This year we came to her for help finding a home. When customer service almost seems something from years gone by, Michelle brings it back. Michelle’s honest approach, availability, knowledge, and passion to serve is beyond her peers. I would highly recommend Michelle is both the sales and/or purchase of your home. "

" Rockstar Realtor! If you are looking for an honest, energetic, committed and knowledgable agent look no farther. Michelle uses her skills to provide top of the line service to her clients. I have bought and sold several homes with the help of Michelle over the years. She excels at overcoming surprises and challenges that inevitably manifest themselves throughout the home buying/selling process. She will not disappoint! "

" She guided us home! Michelle is Trustworthy, Professional, Understanding, Warm & On Top of It! We had no choice but to start over in life. Luckily, we knew Michelle was trustworthy. That was where we started; with Michelle, a new job and a plan. She was so in tune with our situation and our vision for the future, she often showed us listings that we later sent back to her! Every step of the way, she checked in on our progress and guided us through whichever phase of paperwork. Because we trust her, getting into a pile of documents seemed procedural rather than intimidating. We knew we could trust that the documents were what she said and we knew she would make sure we finished them completely, on time. Instead of feeling like a double check, she made our contact more like an ongoing conversation about the progress of our homebuying journey. The journey takes us home! Michelle made us feel comfortable with the process of homebuying; it was easy understand how far we had come, what was happening in the moment and what we could anticipate in the next phase. Somehow she knows everyone. Michelle's network of professionals is fantastic and available. She has someone ready to solve whichever problem, but is not pushy about choosing them. Our home inspection was very detailed and though she was always a guardian of our interests... during negotiations she is almost savage. She wanted us to get everything we wanted and needed, even if we didn't understand how important it was. This ALL went down in 7 months. We experienced a tragic life change, pivoted to Michelle and now over the last few days... we have been moving in to our new home. Listen to her. She is listening to you. She has knowledge and experience that applies to the situation, that you might not fully understand. It is terrifying to start over. She has seen difficulties and helped people out of them. Be honest with her. To any new home buyer: I know it's complex and frightening. Work with Michelle, so you can relax and enjoy the journey! Michelle is the best real estate agent, ever. You can trust her. "

" Such a wonderful support and resource to make this a good process! Michelle has been such a supportive resource on this process. As a first time seller of a home, she helped to make the process so much less stressful than it could have been. She gave great suggestions and overall positive energy that made the sell of my home come out with the best possible outcome. I can't thank her enough for helping me through the process, when the time was perfect for myself and the new buyers. I definitely would recommend Michelle to any buyer or seller, as she is a wonderful light in this world! "

" Could not have done it without her! Michelle did an amazing job as our realtor! She went above and beyond the norm when it came to making sure we closed on time. We had some issues that suddenly came up during the final week prior to closing. Michelle immediately started thinking outside the box for solutions so that we could close on time, making so many phones calls that my head spins thinking about it! We believe that our home may not have sold had it not been for her tenacity and dedication. Her knowledge of the local real estate market is incomparable. Thank you, Michelle! "

" Expertise, thoroughness, and dedication. I was completely new to the home-selling process and felt I needed someone who was an expert in the Corbett market. From the first meeting I could tell Michelle was the best person to help me sell my mother's home. Her knowledge, her dedication, her genuine heart, were all essential to getting this unique property sold. She is active in the community and seems to know just about everyone (and if she doesn't, she knows somebody who knows somebody). She will be your staunchest ally in this process, able to hold your hand when you need it but also able to dole out some real truth. She explained the process in detail, kept me informed every step of the way, and always asked how I was feeling about, or did I have questions about, the progress, necessary steps, etc. She also has a great support team. Her thoroughness, her expansive knowledge of the complexities of rural properties, her commitment to help build a thriving community, these are just a few of Michelle's many strengths. "

" Such a great realtor ! After many past real estate transactions, we have never been better served by a Realtor than by Michelle. Her advice and availability to solve every unexpected situation guided us through a complicated sale.

" Outstanding Real Estate Agent. I have known Michelle for almost 25 years. She became our agent in 2013 to sell our home in Troutdale. During that time she assisted me in buying my very first home by myself, in Gresham. In 2018 she assisted us in purchasing our dream home in Happy Valley. In 2022 she referred us to an agent in Bend to assist us in purchasing our vacation home in Central Oregon. In 2023, when I was closing in on retirement, we decided to sell our Happy Valley home. With the interest rates and the housing market Michelle let us know the market was a challenge, but she assured us she would do everything in her power to sell our beautiful home. We made sure our home was "turn key" ready for her to list. Her attention to detail and her knowledge of the housing market was incredible. Her personality is always positive and upbeat and it gives you the encouragement that everything is going to work out. In August we found the perfect buyers for our home and they were in love with it. Michelle goes above and beyond to assist her sellers and buyers in every way that she can. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Michelle as a person and a real estate agent. I highly recommend her professional services and promise you will also gain a remarkable friend. Thank you Michelle for ALL that you have done for me professionally and personally. "

" An agent that is caring, knowledgeable and with you from start to finish. Michelle was wonderful to work with! There was a lot to deal with during the sale of our home and property and she was always available to help with everything. She made a very difficult life change so smooth and easy. I truly appreciate all the small things she did along with the large ways she helped. "

- Brenda

" Above and Beyond: A First-Time Homebuyer’s Dream Realtor. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make the entire experience smooth, fair, and successful. As a first-time homebuyer, I was nervous about all the contracts and paperwork, but she took the time to walk through everything with me line by line. That meant so much—I always understood exactly what I was signing and what to expect next. Because of her guidance, I now feel confident and empowered for the future if I ever decide to sell. Her communication was phenomenal. She stayed in constant contact, keeping me updated every step of the way and making sure I always knew what was happening and what I needed to do. I never felt out of the loop. On top of all that, she was an incredible cheerleader. She believed in me, supported me, and never once made me feel like I was less than—especially as a single woman working with a smaller budget. That kind of encouragement and respect meant everything to me. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation. Michelle is truly the best! "

" 5/5 Great experience! Michelle was an wonderful relator, she took the time to look for what we really wanted and can offer.

" Six Stars! Michelle is a very committed and passionate agent who works tirelessly (regardless of where on the planet she is at any given moment) to navigate through the entire process of selling a home. She met with me and toured the home multiple times prior to listing, advising on staging and pre-listing repairs. She helped strategize on the listing price. She advertised and got the word out in the community about the home and open house. She was proactive about keeping in touch with potential buyers' agents. She solicited feedback and helped me revise my staging in response. She kept diligent track of other comparably priced homes and advised me of the conditions of the market in my area. Once we were pending, Michelle was laser focused on keeping documents in order and accurate, communicating with the buyers' agent and title company, and advising me of every step along the way. She kept me on track with my moving out tasks with her pro-active communication style. She is smart, trustworthy, and knows what she is doing! There is no agent I would recommend more than Michelle Smith. Six stars! "

" There were many issues in selling our sister's condo. Michelle was great at every turn. Michelle was able to lead us in the very difficult selling of our deceased sister's condo. She made sure we understood every issue and did over and above what was expected of an agent. We closed on March 13th. Thank you, Michelle, you were GREAT. "

- Gail O'Neil

" Caring and knowledgeable agent. We have known Michelle for many years and had previously used her talents to purchase our last home in Troutdale. She has complete knowledge of the East County area and what the market is doing at all times. We did not think of any one else when we decided to sell our house. Michelle was very professional from start to finish and was there for the many questions we had and also just when we needed a friendly voice to help us along our house sale journey. She had a lot of insight when we were setting up our house for the photos as well as getting the house ready for the open house and future home tours. We couldn't ask for a better agent representing us. "

" A Rare Gem in Real Estate Biz. I cannot praise Michelle highly enough.

No one knows the Corbett market better! Michelle is a true professional who makes lifelong friends. "

" She was amazing! We met Michelle when we were broke and she helped us find a very affordable fixer-upper gem. The entire time we lived in Corbett she was there for us, answering questions and helping us find resources. When we were ready to leave, Michelle guided us through a complex sale in a tough market. She has been more than a realtor to us, and we appreciate her immensely. "

" Sold in Just One Weekend! Michelle Carter Smith was a tremendous help to me and my family when I sold my home on 4 acres in Corbett, OR. She provided wise counsel about how to prepare the property for sale, then shepherded us through the actual sales process efficiently. Michelle’s deep knowledge of the Corbett area and the real estate sales process were invaluable. The still photos and video shots in our RMLS ad showed the property to best advantage. And she helped us set the asking price so that there was actually a “bidding war” at the end. Her energy never flagged, and she was patient, attentive to detail, and just plain fun! Michael L. Sherrill August 2025 "

" If there were more stars to give, I'd give Michelle all of them! I have worked with Michelle on more than one occasion, and the reason she is my go-to realtor, is because she has the experience, knowledge and thoroughness in every step of the process. She is also one of the most patient, empathetic and kindest person anyone can ask for when it comes to doing business! I am proud to call Michelle a friend as well. She will tell you like it is, because she knows how to sell a home, and has the instincts of her clients. She is honest and very detail-oriented! She doesn't miss a beat! And you can count on her to communicate on every aspect of the transaction. You can count on Michelle! "

" Fantastic listener and extremely fair. Michelle helped us navigate a sale and I really appreciated her experience and hands-on attitude Next time I buy, Michelle is my gal for sure. "

- Marissa Burnett

" A fierce advocate. We met Michelle as new homebuyers, and left our first meeting feeling significantly more knowledge about the home buying process. She took time to get to know us, and then explained the process in ways that we could understand. The property she suggested would have been perfect for us already, but Michelle fiercely advocated for us throughout (and even after!) the purchase, making sure that we knew the house, property, and community before making our final decisions. She was always available for questions, always patient in her explanations, and consistently kind and professional. We always felt included in the process, and Michelle has a wonderful way of collaborative brainstorming, leveraging her considerable knowledge of the community to find creative solutions. We’d recommend her to friends, family members, and our future selves. "

" Great Knowledge of the Corbett Market. As soon as we realized we were going to have to sell our house, we contacted Michelle. We had a great experience with her as our agent when we bought our house. She toured the house and provided great suggestions for quick renovations and staging ideas. We were on a tight timeline and began to get antsy. She reminded us to be patient, that, "We only get one opportunity to list this house. We want the house to be perfect." Her staging and patience advice were spot on. We accepted a full-price offer one week after the listing went live. Michelle was very communicative throughout the entire process, ensuring we were updated when necessary. She was always available to answer any questions we had. She made what could have been a very stressful event smooth. We will continue to recommend Michelle to anyone we know looking to buy/sell a house in East County. Michelle was outstanding. "
