Print Agent BioLibby is the pacesetter. She has a knack for putting clients at ease by injecting fun into the process of buying and selling homes. Don’t be misled by her style! Libby brings more than 12 years of business practice, negotiation, and marketing experience to her investment and residential real estate clients. The success of her referral-based business is built on the value and guidance she shows before, during, and after each transaction.
Libby has been a top producing broker for The Hasson Company since she earned Rookie of the Year in 2004, with sales exceeding $7 million. Libby continued to be a top 10% Portland agent from 2005 to 2008, and in 2009 was awarded Broker of the Year in the Portland Uptown Hasson office on NW 23rd Place.
Libby leads at crafting competitive offers. Her acumen for negotiation, and her business savvy guides clients though all phases of buying and selling. Libby gets the job done for you. She is your trusted partner.
After pausing for a few years to start her family and to found a charity Your Sisters (yoursisters.org) for empowering women and orphan girls in Tanzania, Africa, Libby returned to her real estate career in Portland with full force. She LOVES this city…and it’s people. Libby feels it is a great honor to work with clients intimately through one of the most important decisions of their lives.
Libby graduated from the University of Oregon where she majored in Environmental Science and Psychology. She lives in Portland with her husband Frank and two children. In the early days, Libby was also a mountain-climber, with summits on four continents. She says “mountains and being in nature has always been a place I find great inspiration.”
We had the pleasure of working with Libby with both buying and selling....and she sure got the job done! As empty-nesters, we had been looking unsuccessfully for over a year, hoping to downsize from our family home to something more urban and with a view. We didn't really know what kind of property we wanted, but we knew we needed a change. It seemed like we had viewed an endless sequence of houses, but without seeing what we wanted. In addition, the thought of preparing our rather tired, and child-worn home for sale was simply daunting. Once we connected with Libby, she helped us see the range of possibilities for where we might go, and how we could quickly and inexpensively prepare our current house for sale. Libby showed us some homes with views that met our expectations, but knowing what we were looking for, also expanded our knowledge of the condominium market. This was key in helping us see that a condo was much more in line with our new lifestyle. Libby spent the time to help us truly understand what was available and how it might work for us. We then found the perfect place, and I can even remember the view of Mt. Hood at sunset that sealed the deal for us. The market was very challenging at that time, but Libby was knowledgeable about how to construct an offer that would get us into the home we had now fallen in love with. The negotiations got down to some fine points, but as Libby is always focused with finding solutions, she persisted to find a way to get all parties to agree. We were thrilled to have had gotten our place and to have had Libby guide us through all of it. For our old home, Libby knew exactly where we needed to focus and spend money and where we didn't. Her ability to advise and guide us through the process was greatly appreciated. She helped with contractors and made everything work efficiently. She has a talent for knowing how to get properties positioned to sell quickly. And ours did! We give a high recommendation for Libby- she is a true professional, she cares deeply for the people she works with, and she simply has a talent for real estate. Libby loves people and she loves helping them in the places that support their lives.

I have loved working with Libby so much! She's so gracious, supportive and present! She offers guidance and help with staging while making you feel completely at ease. It's so easy to trust her with your home. She actually answers her phone, and immediately shares when anything new is happening with your home. I am so grateful to work with her.

She is readily available to show us homes, and works with our schedule. We are very pleased with Libby's assistance and highly recommend her!

"As a seller who was halfway around the world most of the time during the sale, Libby made the entire process expedient and as smooth as possible. I was able to get ahold of Libby immediately whenever I needed her and I was able to trust her expertise and ability to get the negotiations and sale complete - most importantly, in the amount of time needed. She is lovely to work with and she brought a high level of detail and that special personal touch to the entire transaction!"

"We had a great experience with Libby! She worked hard to find us great properties that fulfilled our wants/needs in the areas we were interested in. Within 3 weeks of intense searching, Libby not only found us the property we ended up buying, but also worked overtime to ensure our offer got to the owner before any others.

"From the first time we spoke to Libby, we knew we were going to enjoy working with her! She was kind, patient, and asked us all the questions to ensure she got a good idea of what we were looking for in a home. As first time home buyers, we were nervous to jump into the market, but Libby walked us through it and made us feel comfortable and confident. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area we wanted to buy. She found us numerous homes to look at that were in the area we wanted to live in within our price range. We found our dream home and move in in two days. In the matter of a month and half, we went from speaking to Libby on the phone to signing our documents and closing on the sale of our DREAM HOME. Thank you Libby for helping us reach our dreams! We could not be happier!"
