Testimonials
Dan Volkmer and his team provided us with exceptional service in the sale of our home in NW Portland. We interviewed several agents before deciding to go with Dan and his team. From start to finish, we received superb support from the entire team. We were given expert advice on preparing our home for the market and actual help in getting our home ready. Dan provided thoughtful and sound advice on pricing, advice which proved to be spot on when our home sold quickly at an excellent price. Dan has built a dedicated and talented team. And his value proposition, that it takes a team to sell a house, was fully borne out in our experience. Finally, kudos to Kishra, a member of the team whose efforts on our behalf went well beyond the call of duty. In short, we recommend the Dan Volkmer team with complete enthusiasm.
Hi Dan. That was a wonderful experience working with you and your team in selling the NE Hancock property. It's always welcome when people put the fun back into working, which makes it so much nicer! We are going to be looking for every opportunity to repeat the experience! Thanks.

The Dan Volkmer Team worked very hard at marketing our condo in the NW neighborhood to the right buyers by evaluating our home, taking beautiful photos, and helping us show it in the right way. We had an offer within a week! They were also very responsive to our needs and any questions we had during the process. I really liked that each staff member used their talents and skills to the selling of our home and for being so available to us when we called or had questions. We are very pleased with the results, and will recommend the Volkmer team to our friends.
The Dan Volkmer 'team' were the most organized and helpful agents I have ever dealt with. Almost everything they did exceeded my expectations, compared to past experiences with single agents. The couldn't be more fabulous. It was an awesome experience.
We asked several specific things we wanted in our new condominium and Dan didn't waste our time by showing us property which was not within our requirements. Dan and his group have been very professional and well organized in their schedule to assist is. They are very good at communicating each step in the process of both purchasing our new condominium and now selling our house.
The Volkmer team was very thorough about what needs to be completed to sell a home for the right price. Nothing was left to chance. This group even cut their commission to finalize the sale of our home. Tim and I were really happy to have you all on our side and sell our home it was like working with a family but better, thank you thank you.
My agent and his team moved very quickly to help secure this very special condo before others had a chance to make an offer. They also went out of their way to ensure I was happy with the seismic strength of the building.
Organized, smoothly-run, creative, effective.
Very attentive, personalized service ... efficient and competent !
Excellent service! Over our 27 years of marriage, my husband and I have purchased and renovated 5 homes across the country. Dan Volkmer had outstanding knowledge of the NW Alphabet District historic homes. Burdean Bartlem who works with Dan was superb! Less than one week after our offer was accepted, my husband and I had to leave for 2 weeks to Laguna, California. Burdean coordinated all contractors and inspectors for us while we were away. I have never met a more responsible and helpful individual than Burdean.
Dan and his team got us into our forever home. Having bought and sold two homes in the past, it was clear that working with the Volkmer team was a cut above.
Dan Volkmer went above and beyond in insuring that the sale of our home went through. Every step of the way, the members of his team were available, informative, helpful and pleasant to deal with.
I can't think of a thing that could have been better handled. Dan's got a great team, and this team approach is very effective. I started with Dan and got the lay-of-the-land in buying property; saw properties with Kishra and Mardi, both very savvy, and did all the hard work with Burdean in bringing the deal to a close.. She defused the angst the entire way. She's a mother hen and takes care of things. When the first mortgage app fell through, they got on the phone, called another mortgage agent, who took our case immediately, including the schedule and closing date. We didn't miss a beat. Dan's team is exceptional.
Professional, supportive, thoughtful. Just before the house was to go on the market, my spouse died unexpectedly. Dan and his team couldn’t have been more patient or kind.
The Volkmer team was very proactive in all aspects of the selling process. They were extremely thorough and brought us a qualified buyer within a month from listing in a changing real estate market.
Dan and the Volkmer Team were with us all the way for our sale and purchase, helping to get extensions, arranging to move some items when I was out of town, staging etc. and especially support through some delays. Best team in town.
The Volkmer team complemented one another so well, taking turns helping us out. They seemed to know when to hold our hands and when we needed a douse of reality, too. In the end, Dan knew better what we were looking for in a new home than we did. For that we are most grateful.
The Volkmer Team “made the entire process an enjoyable transition in our family.. All four on this team had their expertise to help sell our house in a relatively short time. Not only for buying and selling, but the team continued to provide excellent recommendations for contractors, movers, handymen, you name it, they have reliable, experienced resources who can and will make things happen quickly! Windermere is a gem in the Portland community for the many projects and services the Foundation sponsors. Thank you Windermere for helping to build and maintain strong neighborhoods throughout Portland, Oregon and Washington!
In 2005, my husband and I listed two of our investment properties with the Volkmer Team. Sale of the duplex and the tri-plex were more than satisfactory; the Volkmer folks worked great with the tenants. In 2007 we listed a four-plex with the Volkmer Team, and again, we were grateful for their marvelous help with every detail. In 2010, our residence of 45 years was listed with the Volkmer Team, and two months after listing, the closing took place. Dan, Burdean, and Kishra are the BEST!!!
Dan and his staff are professionals… knowledgeable, persistent, kind, client-centered. Extraordinary.
I really appreciate the skills and passion you and your team bring to old and historic homes in Portland’s close-in neighborhoods. Thank you for being so kind to me. It was fun meeting other members of your team and the interesting people who came during the open house.
Our work with Dan Volkmer’s team was a fantastic experience. Full service from beginning to end of the sales process. We sold our Portland home from Florida and they coordinated every aspect of prepping the house for sale, managing trades/subcontractors – all the while communicating everything to us about the process, status, and costs. We had a very short timeline to sell our house (and close) before we hit our capital gains deadline. They took care of everything to ensure we met our goals. Pricing strategy, repairs costs, offer negotiations – all were expertly handled! A top notch team! Dan, Kishra, Burdean and Mardi – they were full service and beyond. Thanks for everything!
Dan and his team got us into our forever home. Having bought and sold two homes in the past, it was clear that working with the Volkmer team was a cut above.
We have done many transactions with the Volkmer team and have been extremely satisfied. Their vast experience is a huge asset to a buyer or seller. To sum it up they are a: Knowledgeable, Honest, and Professional team that delivers great results!
