Had two great experiences working with Joel in buying and selling a home! Loved that everything fell into place for us as we had expected, we weren’t stressed at all during the home buying or selling process

Joel did his best to answer all questions and make adjustments as needs arose. The housing market can change quickly and sellers and buyers have to be flexible.
Fantastic realtor and a very nice person. I would highly recommend. Knowledgeable, professional and personable, he's attentive to details and offers honest assessments and great advice (wished I listened to more of them).

Joel was great to work with, we were selling a property while out of the country and he made sure we could take care of all the legalities remotely. He also went above and beyond to help us retrieve personal property we had left at the house. We would highly recommend Joel.

We loved working with Joel. He is professional and kind. He organized a fabulous open house and got our place sold very quickly in a difficult market He saved us thousands of dollars and we got better service than the last time we used a "regular" realtor. We will use Redfin and Joel from here on out. We are so grateful.
Working with Joel was incredibly easy, seamless and successful. I sold my house while living abroad and he made it very easy, with recommended contractors and stagers, etc., which we did all within a month. He also suggested the perfect sale price that attracted good attention to the house and we were able to close well above it. Also the ancillary services supplied by Redfin were very helpful: photography, helpful administrative emails explaining each stage of the process. I would definitely look to Joel first for conducting any real estate in the Willamette Valley area, as a seller or a buyer.

Joel and his team provided a quality of professionalism in every aspect of service and phase of our home sale that so exceeded our expectations that it raises the bar for our future expectations of a real estate agency. Joel and his team were responsive, well informed of the market, and expeditious in their support., Kudos to Redfin! Impressive!
We were so happy working with Joel! Our home purchase journey was a long one and he was there for all of our questions and concerns.
Luck of the Draw. We did not have an agent when we found house listed by Redfin and got introduced as our buyer agent. He did an excellent job. Very professional and patient. Answered all our questions and got all the answers from the owners we needed. He will be listing our current home when we get ready to sell.
He was very professional and considerate to my needs.
Joel was wonderful to work with from start to finish! He really had our best interest in mind and make our transaction run smoothly! We highly recommend him! Thank you Joel!
Joel was wonderful with us throughout the entire process. This is our first time buying a home and he made it as stress free + easy to understand as possible. We are so grateful to be in our dream home and to have had Joel as our realtor

He is the agent I was looking for who really works for his client. All my questions were answered and worked hard to meet my demands.
Aloof. Not knowledgable during negotiation phase. Was very "hands-off". Seemed intimidated by other agent or apathetic to our concerns. Added very little to this entire process. Of our three home-buying experiences, this was the least enjoyable. For a $1.1 mil house, we were expecting a welcome basket or some gesture from Joel upon move-in but received nothing, which is symbolic of the whole process. On a positive not, we have become friends with the sellers and did most communication at the end of the sale without the agents! We love our house!

Thru each step of the journey Joel knew exactly what the buyer is feeling and thinking, which gives him the ability to provide excellent guidance in achieving the desired end result. He was very attentive to every request or wild question/thought I had. He acted immediately, and it felt like he had my best interest in mind; which is very important as I felt secure, comfortable and confident the entire time. Great communication! He followed up with a call or text when an important email was sent. Any new information, he immediately contacted me, and in some cases had great empathy and would do his best to keep me calm and work towards my satisfaction.... Show More

Shortly after the property inspection showed black mold, along with too many to count serious issues with the property I'd been trying to buy, I wanted to pull out from the purchase. When I told Joel I couldn't afford the huge cost of the repairs because I only had about $25K saved, he said he would try to help, which he ultimately did. I thought I had the ability to break the contract after the inspection revealed mold. I was thinking we'd go on together to get a different place, but that same day, Joel told me he was dropping me as his client, and he was blackballing me with Redfin site I'd been using for 6 months with my other agent, Mark Peterson. He said because I had cancelled 2 contracts during those months, he couldn't deal with me anymore and was banning me from the site with... Show More

Joel was hardworking and personable. He did a great job of making us feel up to date and informed throughout the home buying process. When things went sideways with the seller, Joel guided us through the different options and got us back on track and into our home with minimal delay. He is very professional and always available. Joel clearly cares a lot about his quality of service and client satisfaction. We would, and are, recommending Joel's services to friends and family.

If there were more than 10 stars to give, we would certainly give them to Joel! He is not just your ordinary realtor. We are retirees from Montana and had very specific needs in buying a house, for health and other reasons. We looked for a long time to find our house, and Joel was there for us every step of the way. When buying from a distance we had to have someone, whom we could trust and who was willing to really research and visit houses for us... he worked hard to understand our needs and never once steered us in the wrong direction. When he told us a house was worth the 700 mile trip, we knew we could depend on his assessment of the house. When we lost houses in bidding wars or such, Joel was also there to offer emotional support and to encourage us to not give up. To say Joel... Show More

Joel made the home buying process easy. I had a short timeline and he was able to work with my banker to get things wrapped up quickly. He stayed on top of deadlines and was there to answer my questions and problem-solve as needed. He was also a strong advocate for me as a buyer in the negotiating process. I would highly recommend Joel as an agent.
As a first time buyer, I had no knowledge, or what to expect when buying a property. Luckily for us, Joel was there from the time I scheduled an appointment to view the home. Joel reached out right away and took care of everything, making the whole process run as smooth as possible. I was even able to enjoy my vacation without having to worry about anything. The entire process took less than month, and he was always available in case I had any questions or concerns. Definitely recommend Joel!

Joel was great to work with from start to finish on our transaction. He has a great & easy personality to work with, and he kept us very informed as clients throughout the process. He is not only a competent professional, but you can tell he genuinely cares about his clients. In the end we got everything we could have wanted and more. We highly recommend Joel Bumgarner!
Joel has been a great friend of mine for many years. His professionalism with my Wife and I during the process was first class. He went above and beyond for the both of us in everything. His potential within Redfin as an agent will be limitless. Definitely one of the best realtors around the city of Portland.

Easy to work with, knowledgeable and an all around great guy! He helped make our first time buying a home an enjoyable and low stress process.
Joel is an outstanding real-estate agent! Very personal, kind, knowledgeable and gives his clients what they need to have that peace of mind. Joel helped sell my grandmothers house in Milwaukie, OR which was a blessing for my mother because she was trying to sell it from the coast. The communication, peace of mind and professionalism that Joel showed made the process incredibly smooth. We will definitely refer Joel to to anyone that we possibly can!
Joel is exactly what you look for in a realtor - good listener and intuitive.
