JOHNSON H

“I had high expectations listing my home with Aryne and Dulcinea. I'm happy to say that they far exceeded those expectations. All aspects of their services were top notch--from sales and marketing to communication surrounding logistical details. They provided helpful recommendations and stayed on top of deadlines with frequent reminders. They are both very personable and knowledgeable about the housing market generally. I felt reassured throughout the entire process from listing, negotiations, to closing. I enthusiastically recommend Aryne and Dulcinea when listing or buying your next home!”

TIMBO D

This team was amazing! They toured homes with me both on the weekend and after work, and they had a lot of helpful insights! I'm not used to living in an area where all the houses are a hundred years old, so I found their expertise really helpful. Not only that, but once the offer was in, they went above and beyond with the inspection process! They coordinated getting quotes with various contractors to fix every single thing that came up on the inspection, and they were able to use those numbers to negotiate the seller fixing some stuff and giving me the maximum amount of credits for the rest. I was intimidated at the prospect of buying a home in Portland, but Aryne and Dulcinea made me feel safe and swaddled like a lil baby. Absolutely recommend!!!

TREVOR M

“Really can't say enough good things about working with Aryne and Dulcinea. They were so responsive and helpful in every way through the whole process of selling our house. They far exceeded expectations. Not only did they visit the house multiple times each, and responded to every text, call, and email almost immediately, but the marketing they do and the folks they work with was all fantastic!”

DAVID B

“It has been 32 years since we last sold a home. A lot has changed in that time period. We met with Dulcinea and Aryne last summer to start the planning the selling process. They walked us through, step by step, on what should be done and when. They have contractor list a mile long, which was extremely helpful. We did as much of the recommended repairs/updates as we were comfortable with. Their recommended contractors did the rest. They lined up the cleaners and the stagers. We moved across the country about a month before our house was listed. Would not have been comfortable doing that without them. The listing and open houses were carefully coordinated. We had a viable cash offer, $70K over asking, in less than a week. We closed within three weeks.
They had a plan. We followed the plan. The plan worked. I can't recommend them highly enough.”

NICOLETTE Y

“Working with Dulcinea and Aryne was a dream come true. My partner and I were nervous as first time home buyers in a highly competitive market, but we felt taken care of from the word go. We worked primarily with Dulcinea who is incredibly positive, warm, and SUPER knowledgeable. Everyone on their team goes above and beyond, thinking of everything and keeping it so simple for you. We love our new home and couldn't be happier with how smooth the process was. Whether you're as green as we were or you're seasoned in the world of real estate, you cannot go wrong working with Aryne and Dulcinea.”

KERI E

“Working with Aryne & Dulcinea was an absolute delight! Everyone was patient and more importantly, not overly pushy. They understood our timeline was slower and happily showed us places to help us get a better idea of what we were looking for. Once we found the place they sprung into action and got the offer in quickly and we got the place! We've moved in and they made sure the process was smooth and that we have plenty of support with all the questions that come up. I fully recommend working with them.”

JAYA R

“Aryne and Dulcinea were great to work with. They helped in coordinating selling our Portland property while we were residing out of state. This could've been a very hectic and stressful experience but they worked really hard to make it smooth and kept us posted with any updates. They also provided really great feedback and support while still providing a space to make decisions that work for us. I would definitely recommend working with them for any real estate needs in the Portland area.”

SASHA

“My wife and I bought our first home in March of this year. In retrospect, it was one of the craziest times we could have picked to buy a home: an interest rate hike was looming and the market was bananas. But we could not have picked a better team to work with than Aryne and Dulcinea. Throughout the process, we were continually impressed with their attentiveness and expertise. Lovely people, true professionals, and immensely talented---we cannot recommend them enough!”

MICHAEL H

“Aryne and Dulcinea were absolutely wonderful to work with! We felt so supported and encouraged throughout the process of selling our home and they were always ready with a speedy response and keeping us updated throughout. The team they have surrounded themselves with are true professionals and they made our home absolutely shine. We will be recommending Aryne and Dulcinea to anyone that is looking to buy or sell a home.”

BEEMAN S

“Aryne & Dulcinea are amazing people. They got our house sold on day 1 with a full price offer, and helped us get into our new house at a price we were comfortable with. Both transactions were completely smooth. When selling they did a great job with staging and helping us schedule any work we needed done, both before and after accepting the offer. Highly recommended!”

CAROLINE M

“My spouse and I recently bought a home in Roseway with the assistance of Aryne and Dulcinea. They were wonderful to work with, and made the overwhelming process of first-time home buying seem easy... we honestly felt like we didn't have to worry because everything was taken care of. They work fabulously as a team and were great listeners. Dulcinea quickly dialed in the types of houses and neighborhoods of interest to us, and we found a gorgeous light-filled house that fits our needs perfectly. They have strong local connections as well, and were able to get us quickly connected to a whole team of local experts and contractors. We highly recommend them!”

ERIN + TOM

“We had a wonderful experience working with Aryne and Dulcinea to sell our NE home. I appreciated their calm and organized approach, making the process feel less overwhelming. Good communication and good advice. They are a very complementary team and they had a good handle on things from beginning to end. This helped me to relax and step back a bit - which is what I hoped for!”

SARA S

“I recently purchased my first home with the incredible help of Aryne and Dulcinea. They provided steady guidance, reassurance when I needed it, and an intuitive sense for how to support my goals in the process. Their experience guiding homebuyers through in this "crazy market" was obvious from the start and I am so very grateful for how easy they made every step of the way. They were extremely patient as I learned the lay of the land in the home buying process and helped me remain both discerning and optimistic.”

ANNA B

“Dulcinea and Aryne were a fantastic team to work with! This was my first time buying a home, and they helped make the process and simple and understandable. Their generosity and kindness went way beyond my expectations. Now my family is in the home of our dreams! We couldn't be happier, and I will be sure to use these ladies again for any future home buying needs.”

KENDALL S

“Dulcinea and Aryne were a fantastic team to work with! This was my first time buying a home, and they helped make the process and simple and understandable. Their generosity and kindness went way beyond my expectations. Now my family is in the home of our dreams! We couldn't be happier, and I will be sure to use these ladies again for any future home buying needs.”

IXEL T

“We so enjoyed working with Dulcinea and Aryne. They are knowledgeable, kind, and creative. We have lived in our home for nearly twenty years, and they were both so sensitive to our needs as we went through the process of preparing our home for sale, navigating the showing of our house, and ultimately the sale of our home. We felt listened to and cared for. Their combined expertise helped us sell our home quickly, making our next adventure possible. We wholeheartedly recommend Aryne and Dulcinea.”

MATT R

“We bought a house with Aryne and Dulcinea in 2013, and when we decided to sell, we knew we wanted to work with them again.
Aryne and Dulcinea are very professional and super helpful during the process of either buying or selling. They go above and beyond at every step of a real estate transaction.
We can't recommend them enough!”

KRISTEN

“Whoever said buying a house was hard wasn't working with Aryne + Dulcinea. To be clear, the process of finding and landing our dream home was far from seamless. With a limited budget and an unrealistic set of "must-haves" my partner and I searched high & low for our dream starter home. Just when hope was nearly lost, Aryne + Dulcinea worked with their amazing team of mortgage brokers to secure us a home that FAR exceeded our wishlist. We're so grateful to them for their unending patience and commitment. We felt entirely supported throughout the entire process, and they were amazingly effectively at alleviating many of the concerns and anxieties we had as first-time buyers. Even after the sale was finalized, Aryne + Dulcinea have continuously followed up to ensure a smooth and worry-free transition. THANK YOU BOTH!”

SC

“Aryne + Dulcinea made selling my house as smooth & stress free as possible. They're easy to trust, professional & very responsive. I gained a new appreciation for the skills of a great realtor by working with these two. It requires terrific communication skills, knowledge of psychology, legalities plus all the in's and out's of the local real estate market. These two have all those skills in spades. I highly recommend their services.”

GLENN F

“I just moved into a beautiful new home last week after a wonderful experience working Aryne & Dulcinea over the past few months. Throughout the process, Aryne was patient and quickly built an understanding of the type of home I was seeking to purchase. She truly shined, however, when it came time to both negotiate the price of my home and the inspection resolution. Aryne was so thorough in her process of bringing in contractors to review various aspects of the property, and that process paid huge dividends in the end.”

REBECCA I

“Highly recommend working with Aryne and Dulcinea as realtors! They are highly professional, knowledgeable and responsive. We worked with them to buy and then to sell our home a few years later, and we were in great hands on both occasions. Really excellent service and all the right expertise.”

ROBBIE L

“I sold a house and Dulcinea and Aryne were my agents. They were very helpful in setting a good price for my home. They provided me with references for people to cleanup and repair the house prior to sale. They were readily available for every step in the process. They are a joy to work with.”

ANNA C

“We have bought and sold two homes now with Aryne + Dulcinea, and both times, they made every step of the process simple, low stress, and exciting. It is such a gift to work with realtors we can trust!”

JOANNA A
+ BETH G

“Aryne and Dulcinea both possess the necessary cadre of skills a potential buyer and seller need. No question was unanswered and every uncertainty was addressed by them and their deep team of seasoned professionals. I highly recommend these two and look forward to working with them again.”

LUCAS G

“Aryne and Dulcinea have been incredible to work with. We have purchased a house, a condo and sold a piece of land with their help, and would definitely use them for future purchases and sales as well. As a tag-team they make scheduling meetings and site visits super easy, and they are very willing to listen and discuss random crazy ideas we come up with. They offer great advice and are also fun to hang out with!”

RACHEL B

“We worked with Aryne mostly when buying our home and she was FABULOUS. She sent us a lot of houses to consider, and would reply promptly when we wanted to look at them. She took care of all of the little details that we wouldn't have thought of, and was able to help us find a house in Portland with our small budget! We loved how knowledgeable, kind and ready to help she was, and we feel like we can still reach out to ask her questions. When Aryne was out of the office, Dulcinea was equally as kind and responsive. Should we ever decide to sell our house to upgrade, we will call them first!”

ERIC D

“I had a great experience working with Dulcinea, she helped me buy a house during a stressful time and she was always positive about everything. Her follow up client care is exceptional!”

CASEY B

“From the beginning, Aryne & Dulcinea made the entire experience of buying our house amazingly seamless. They were always available to answer random questions, extremely knowledgeable, and very flexible with our schedule.  They connected us with an incredible financial supervisor who worked with us to build up our credit, making purchasing a house possible. Aryne meet me on weekends and truly made me feel like I was her only client. Since buying our literal DREAM HOUSE (2 years ago), Aryne & Dulcinea have not only stayed in touch, they have sent us gift cards to new places that open up in our neighborhood, have come to work events & fundraisers, and even dropped off a wedding gift this past month. As I type, we're on our way to get a FREE DONUT from Doe's Donuts (our latest post card perk from A&D). We can't say enough about these two”

RUSS + KC E

"We recently had a wonderful experience working with Aryne and Dulcinea to sell one house and buy another. We interviewed several different realtors and companies and chose Living Room and Aryne and Dulcinea because of their professionalism, warmth, and familiarity with our part of town.
Dulcinea had our house staged beautifully and sold it in a weekend for far above asking price. She also helped us get into the house that we wanted, in spite of some tricky shenanigans on the part of the seller's agent. She really partnered with us to see both transactions through, and we felt incredibly supported by her. Aryne was there to help in the moments that Dulcinea had to be offline. Because of their partnership, we never had a moment where we were left unaware or unsupported in our transactions.  Dulcinea and Aryne helped make a very stressful time for our family fun and much easier than it could have been. If we ever decide to move again, they will be our first call."

KRISTIN S

“Dulcinea and Aryne have helped us buy two places now, one house and one condo. For both, they were incredibly helpful, available and willing to listen to our needs. They even followed up at tax time to send over our closing statement so that we didn't have to go find that! The little touches make a huge difference. I will definitely be referring them to friends and family, I love working with them!”

ARIEL L

“I have long dreamt of owning my own home but it always felt like a long-distant, dreamy hope; something that might happen when I could win the lottery…After just a few short and incredibly revealing meetings with Aryne and Dulcinea I found out just how possible it was.  And in a few short months I moved in to my first home.“

LEAH P

“I could not be more satisfied with my selling and buying experience with this dynamite team! I had a very unique home that needed a lot of work and I also had a lot on my plate at the time, but they knew just when to push and just when to back off. I worked mostly with Dulcinea who was my absolute cheerleader--I had unfailing access to her encouragement around the clock; Aryne brought so much intelligence and back up the to the process as well--they are complementary duo! Working together, the house went through a complete transformation and the open house was a sensation: I had SIX offers in less than a week. 
I had a time crunch to find my next home, and Dulcinea was amazing, asking all the right questions and letting me lead her into uncharted territory. With her guidance, I ended up with the the most darling home that my family and I adore. I would recommend this stellar team to anyone. I especially appreciated the space that they held for my emotions during the whole process; I felt really cared for in their hands. Real estate can be scary and they made it into a positive experience...that's powerful stuff.”

JEFF K

“Aryne and Dulcinea have represented me and our family on many real estate matters including being our buyer agent on several metters and in giving us market estimates of value on several properties we own. They are so knowledgeable, professional, clear, aggressive for us yet easy to work with that being involved in real estate matters is not like going to the dentist. I recommend them to anyone”

STASHIA C

“I had so much fun working with Aryne and Dulcinea. I ventured into investment properties and wasn’t sure if the market was for me, but they made me feel comfortable and confident. With tenacity and tons of knowledge, they were able to help me find a profitable rental. Aryne and Dulcinea know real estate through and through and guided me through the process taking care of me each step of the way. I would refer anyone to them, and plan to use them in the future.”

KIRK S

“I was very happy with Aryne and Dulce. They were knowledgeable, professional, responsive and creative in coming up with solutions. Both the sale of our old house and the purchase of our new house was a smooth as possible due to their constant follow up and communication. I would strongly recommend Aryne and Dulce for residential real estate agents.”

KENNETH J

“We are SO happy that we chose Aryne & Dulcinea as our realtors! We interviewed three others, but it was very obvious from the beginning that this team really KNEW the particulars of our neighborhood and our somewhat unusual property. Their thorough and careful assessment--including the crucial but underappreciated craft of choosing accurate comparable listings--guided us to set just the right price. We accepted an offer within days. And the closing was very smooth, in large measure thanks to Aryne's quick responses to all the of back-and-forth documentation. The staging, photos, and videos were superb and an excellent value! PLUS, all of this in the midst of the COVID pandemic! We would recommend Aryne and Dulcinea to anyone.”

KRISTIN S

“Dulce and Aryne were the PERFECT team to help me get the house I wanted. Between the two of them, they were always available to do a walk through or meet with contractors and the appraiser. I worked primarily with Dulce, and she is the most charming ray of sunshine that you can imagine, which helps a lot in negotiations! Dulce really went the extra mile (or ten) for this to happen due to a tricky closing process and a less than ideal appraisal. She went to bat for me every step of the way, and I will absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor. I will also be sure to use her again in future purchases or sales! Thank you Dulce and Aryne!”

AMY G

“Dulcinea and Aryne are detail oriented, knowledgeable, and committed to making sure you have a great experience with a home sale or purchase - or both. Highly recommend!”

CHRIS G

“I had an absolutely stellar home buying experience with Aryne and Dulcinea. What could have been stressful and scary was instead a deeply meaningful process for my family. Cannot recommend high enough.”

ELIZA B

“Well these are amazing ladies, there was not one detail they did not help us with durning the process of selling and buying a home. They both were on top of everything and were so amazing, if I could, I would give them ten stars. Great people, greater work!!”

MIKE B

“In our current business and in my past life with a national homebuilder (Pulte), I’ve worked closely with well over 50 agents. You and your team handles this frustrating property with diligence and patience beyond what I’ve seen and what I expected. And I can honestly say you (Aryne) and Dulcinea are the first agents I will go out of my way to recommend."

DAVID S

"We bought our home with Dulcinea and Aryne this last summer. It wasn’t something we were planning and was very last minute. So I was surprised how fast Dulcinea was able to meet with us and how responsive she was through the whole process. Summer is one of the busiest times in Real Estate and to have her return my calls and stay in touch the way she did, with all her clients, was amazing. Once we found a house and started the process of buying the Sellers and their agent were horrible. Dulcinea didn’t let that get in the way and did everything she could to follow through with them, keep us in the loop and she dealt with their attitude like a champ! Her positive attitude through the whole event was wonderful. Her dedication is remarkable and she has great vision. Many Thanks."

JULIE G

“I know several real estate agents in Portland who are experienced and successful, but when I was considering who would be best to serve me in finding  a home for myself and my two children Aryne and Dulcinea were my top choice. Their expertise and passion for helping their clients is like no other team. Finding  a home that would suite my family and yet was still in my price range seemed and impossible task. Aryne and Dulcinea were dedicated to searching high and low and really understood my specific needs.  After a long 9 month search, we found the perfect home. They were even instrumental in connecting me to neighbors! Throughout the negotiation process and closing, Aryne and Dulcinea were by my side. And after my move in, Dulcinea helped me figure out the layout of my main floor. Her vision of how to best use the open floor plan of the main space was life saving to me. She is truly gifted. I would recommend Aryne and Dulcinea without hesitation to anyone buying or selling real estate."

RACHEL R

“I loved working with Aryne and Dulcinea when we were looking for our new home. They were fun and excited to help us in the search for a home and neighborhood that would be a good fit for our family. They were prompt, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and professional and I loved working with them. It made the challenge of looking for a new home much more fun, knowing that we had confidence in such a great team of real estate agents in Aryne and Dulcinea.”

SUSAN +
SPENCER W

“Dulcinea and Aryne were there for us every step of the way through a four month search for our home, from writing offers, to negotiating and inspections, all the way through closing.  They were persistent, knowledgeable and professional and we trusted that they always had our best interest in mind.  We appreciated their honesty and most of all their positive attitude that helped us keep our chin up and keep going until we found the perfect place!  We would highly recommend Aryne and Dulcinea to anyone!”

DORI J

“I needed to sell my house quickly, and with the advice and help of Aryne and Dulcinea, my house sold immediately after the realtors’ open house.   I’m happy to recommend Aryne and Dulcinea to anyone who needs a good realtor.”

DARCY C

“We chose Aryne and Dulcinea because they are such experts about inner NE Portland. We are very happy to have worked with them...they make a fantastic team! They are well-researched and experienced, plus a please to work with. They were able to give us a realistic understanding of the comparables in our neighborhood. I loved that they actively helped with staging the house, and it felt like all the work was done the day we hit the market...and it didn’t hurt that they sold our house far above asking price in a weekend!”

KAREN C +
PEGGY M

“Aryne and Dulcinea were a great support through every step of listing and selling our house.  Dulcinea’s assistance with staging was amazing.  The house price Aryne recommended was right on target for encouraging buyers.We sold the house in 4 days!!! The assistance they gave in evaluating new homes was so helpful and I feel like I could still call upon them for advice about our new home.Thanks to Aryne and Dulcinea, every step of the way was smooth and easy!"

ERIN E

“I sold my condo in a short sale, and Dulcinea and Aryne helped me navigate every step of that harrowing process. They were beyond wonderful to work with: helpful and supportive in ways I couldn’t have anticipated, deeply knowledgeable and professional, and a joy to be around. Though I don’t recommend the short sale process itself, if you must do it, please let these amazing women help you through. They are total pros—I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you so much, Aryne and Dulcinea.”

JESSICA L

"We bought our first home earlier this year with the incredible help of Aryne and Dulcinea. They worked with us to find the perfect house that met our needs and assisted us in navigating the process of becoming first time homeowners. Dulcinea always had speedy responses to our many questions, thoughts or concerns. She was also a great resource as we went through the arduous process of renovating our newly purchased property. Thanks to her amazing expertise and support we now have a wonderful place to call home!"

SHAWN +
JANELLE E

"As anyone knows who has been through it, purchasing your first home can be a stressful process. My spouse and I were on a tight schedule due to an expiring lease, and with the housing market in Portland, needed a team to help us make quick, educated decisions in order to not miss out on “the one”. We just couldn’t find the answers to our questions, or houses meeting our needs with several realtors – until we met Dulcinea & Aryne. They listened to what we were looking for, and provided us with great houses as soon as they came on the market. It was great having a team on our side, because if one person was not able to shows us a home, the other made themselves available - which provided us with priceless time to make decisions. Dulcinea & Aryne were the perfect advocates to have during closing, as they made inspections & escrow as seamless as possible. I would recommend this team to anyone, as we couldn’t have asked for anyone better."

BETHANY B

“Dulcinea & Aryne and the Living Room Realty crew were absolutely amazing. My best friend recommended Dulcinea, and my first meeting with her started off with her giving me a big ole welcoming hug!!!  That wonderful warm experience continued throughout the entire process of buying my first home.  Dulcinea never missed a beat; she promptly got me out looking at houses, and answering my plethora of questions.  Once I found my dream house, she eased me through the process of making an offer and eventual purchase, with the utmost care.  My brother in Atlanta happened to be in the process of purchasing his new home at the same time, and his journey was quite a struggle.  When I told him about my wonderful experience, he said “Sounds like you have a fantastic team helping you!” , to which I replied “Why yes lil Brother, I do!"  My little pup Dexter and I are so happy with our new home and I cannot thank Dulcinea enough.”

LAURA B

“Aryne & Dulcinea are a powerful team with a palpable passion for real estate.”

KELSEY B

Dulcinea was wonderful! My husband and I had a less than pleasurable experience with our last realtor, so we were not in the best of spirits about trying to find someone new. The first meeting we had, Dulcinea listened to what we wanted, our concerns, and walked us through the whole process. Not once did we feel pressured or rushed to find something, she was patient and understanding the whole way. In the end we found the right house and she was there to explain and walk us through everything. We are very excited about our house and even more pleased that we went with Dulcinea, we highly recommend her!
