Our search for a second home spanned several months and Ann was our partner every step of the way. She was personable and professional, persevering and patient. Ann knows the area and history; she even introduced us to some folks who gave us a feel for what it's like living in Astoria. Ann did an outstanding job, and was great to work with. We highly recommend Ann to anyone looking for a realtor who is responsive and will look out for your best interests.

Ann was the fourth realtor we had made contact with concerning selling our home and buying another home or land to build on. She was the only one that followed up after our initial contact. Ann worked hard at showing us every property in the area that might fit our needs. When we weren't finding anything already built, we shifted to looking at available land. She made contact with local developers for us. We found the lot we decided to buy on our own but it was out of the area we had been looking at. Ann went with us through the process of negotiating and purchasing the homesite.

Very creative in finding solutions. Ann showed us about 6 listings to accern what we were looking for, then tailered the search, which greatly respected our time. She also showed us two awesome properties that were not on the market-one of which we bought. Ann negotiated with the Owner, and convinced him to accept our offer which was significantly less than the market price. She is very, very good at what she does.

Reflecting back over the past year I felt the need to say THANK YOU for your help this year.  Your assistance was tremendous to our efforts at the lake.  Getting Senator Johnson to help made an incredible difference.  Our Spillway/Fishladdder project is now in the funding stage.  Our dredging permit which we were desperate for is secured for another 5 years.  And with exception of ODFW the agencies have become much easier to work with.       

Without your efforts none of this would have happened.  

Happy Holidays!

Ann Samuelson is an unusual realtor in that she doesn't impose her will upon the Buyer in any way. When I told her my price range, she didn't go 50-100k above it, as had so often been the case with previous realtors. She stayed well within my range, finding a wonderful home for my family in a short period of time. That characteristic - finding just what works for people without imposing another agenda sets her apart from other realtors I have worked with over the years. In the last 20 years or so, I have bought and/or sold 7 houses, so I have a bit of experience with realtors. 

Ann is unparalleled in the amount of research she does and in her ability to narrow down the number of properties the Buyer goes through based upon her knowledge of their desires and the entire western region of Oregon. Furthermore, she was dogged in her pursuit of my goals, which were quite demanding. I wanted to close on the house in less than a week! Ann was able to pull this feat off, not only by working with the builders agent, but more importantly, because she knew everyone in the county, she was able to work with the title company and everyone, to accomplish this Herculean effort. 

I would not hesitate to recommend Ms. Samuelson to anyone, in any price range, because I know she has tremendous people skills coupled with the ability to get it done.</em>
