Print Agent BioReal Estate is a service-oriented business, and by following up on each transaction on a daily basis and always going above and beyond, I have experienced a very high success rate. It is my belief, that a real estate transaction should be smooth, well coordinated, and as stress free as possible.
I am a very detail oriented person who takes great pride in protecting my client's interests, by being there every step of the way, from beginning to close of escrow. Being available and returning calls promptly, as well as having a thorough knowledge of the market, highest standards, and commitment to excellence, all contribute to my proven success in the real estate field.
Continuing education is a top priority in assuring my clients receive the best service possible. I have earned several designations, including CRS (Certified Residential Specialist), ABR (Accredited Buyers Representative), SRES (Senior Residential Specialist), SFR (Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource Certified), CSP (Certified New Home Sales Professional), and Energy Trust Certification.
In the calm and stable, as well as turbulent markets over the past years, many of these designations have proven to be extremely beneficial to my clients. It has been my pleasure to be able to help many sellers and buyers achieve their goals and I would love to help you also.
Since 2005, I have enjoyed working in real estate in Central Oregon and have seen many changes take place. When not working, I enjoy spending time hiking, kayaking, gardening, reading, cooking, and time with my family.
Whether buying or selling your primary home, secondary home, or a lot in Central Oregon, I would be delighted and honored to work with you.

Valerie Nelson was our real estate agent during our hunt for and purchase of our house in Bend. Simply stated, Valerie was phenomenal. She listened to our desires and concerns during our house hunting and gave us a very thorough and thoughtful analysis of how our lifestyle would fit with different neighborhoods in Bend. Valerie provided a clear picture of the housing market in Bend by providing links to online listings with comments about pluses and minuses of the houses listed. Through frequent and honest discussions about houses listed, Valerie counseled us on what we could purchase where and for what price. During this process, we provided feedback on what locations and features were attractive or unattractive to us. By the time we had sold our previous house and could make an offer on a house in Bend, we were completely in synch with Valerie. As it turned out, the house we purchased came on the market at a time when we could not travel to Bend to see it in person. We had by then gained so much trust in Valerie’s knowledge and judgement that we looked at the house online, loved it, got Valerie’s live report on the features and condition as she toured the house, decided it was the house we wanted, and made an offer that evening. Valerie coached us about important aspects of making a smart and attractive offer to the sellers who accepted our offer the next day. She was always in our corner during the closing process and even checked on the house during the weeks between closing and our move to Bend. We give Valerie Nelson our highest recommendation and so appreciate all her expertise, kindness, and generosity during our search for and purchase of our house in Bend.
