As a General Contractor I've worked on several projects with Alternative Realty. They have a keen sense for what improvements will most benefit a property. Shelley and Joyce are both excellent problem solvers and always work with great integrity. I highly recommend working with them.

I had an excellent experience working with Shelley. As a long-time resident of Portland who is active in the community, she knows the city as well as anyone. Alternative Realty also knows the market extremely well, and will work hard on your behalf to get the most value possible either as a seller or buyer. Highly recommended!

I have been a tenant for going on 5 years with Alternative Realty. Shelley and Joyce have been prompt, responsive, and professional the entirety of my tenancy. They employ good contractors and manage all issues with experience and thoughtfulness.
