Alex was great to work with. She suggested relevant properties to view, and helped me to view properties all over the city within my budget. I never felt pressured to push my budget. She was also great helping me find contractors to complete some remodel work.

Alex was great to work with and made the whole process very easy, especially considering that I was a first time buyer. She couldn’t have been more helpful!!

Very pleasant. Great sense of humor! Excellent knowledge of not only the business itself but the area. Never felt pressured or hurried. Ultimately I found a condo that I was very happy with. 5 Stars.

Alex was able to hold an odd and problematic sale together. Not because of big money, it was a small condo but because she is a talented professional who works very well with people.

I have worked with Dana 3 times now and she is extremely detailed and really understands what her customer is looking for in their home. When moving back from France, I made sure that Dana was my agent for my new house in PDX. Having worked with Dana in the past, she knew what I was looking for and   I found a home quickly. She is detailed in the whole process making sure that the sellers and associates are on point to get the work needed for closing. I love working with Dana and you will too

Working with Dana in selling my house was seamless. Dana is extremely knowledgable about Portland Real Estate and was informative on what the comps were in the area. Dana has great contacts in making sure that your house is ready to get top dollar, with making sure pre-inspections happen if needed   to allow you to sit back and sell your home. I lived in France at the time, the process was very seamless and Dana kept me up to date on all happenings. There are so many ways to thank Dana and I would highly recommend her as your agent

Dana was so great to work with. The price point we were out was extremely competitive and she guided us in providing a solid offer to the seller, she worked very closely with the sellers agent to ensure the sale went through quickly and smoothly. Dana was always available for questions and kept us   in the loop. We never had to wonder what was happening, she was so transparent. She made a stressful time for us as we had a time crunch less stressful and we were able to purchase a fabulous home in record time. We will definitely call Dana for our next real estate transaction.

Dana Cody,

I want to take this opportunity to thank Dana Cody for working with me. She had been an invaluable asset throughout the process, as I have worked these many months getting my house ready for sale and on the market.

I first met Dana several years ago when our family was selling my mother’s home. She initially impressed me as to the in depth work she had done to prepare for the meeting and how she listened to our needs and concerns.

She has done that with my process and so much more. She has been patient with me, has listened to me “vent”, and has provided invaluable insight and solutions to issues that I have faced. She’s has been reassuring when I question if I’m moving in the right direction.

During this process, she has been proactive and has kept me apprised of what’s going on, (w)here we’re at, (w)here we’re going and next steps. She follows up when she says she will and holds me accountable for my deliverables.

I consider Dana a friend and trusted advisor. She is a true professional and asset to the real estate profession.

She listened to me and found me the right place by only looking at two places she was great, funny, knowledgeable, and communicated with me at all times even though she was out on vacation I didn’t feel like she wasn’t here.

Great experience for buying my first place!

Alex Valverde


Alex has a great, no nonsense way about her and I appreciate all the hard work she put in. My house wasn’t an easy sell, it needed some work and is

located on a busy street. She held an open house every weekend until it was sold and she knew a lot of people who helped me get it ready to put on the  market. When things got tough (someone backed out after a couple of weeks) she worked harder. I’m grateful to have worked with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.

Jody Mathey


This is second time Alex has represented us-I trust her completely, and she is one of the best-plus a lot of fun to work with. Honesty, integrity and good advice are amongst her many attributes.

Glynis McQuaid


I could not have wished for a better agent. Alex completely understood our needs and went above and beyond to find the right match for us. It was great having an agent who was so knowledgeable about all of the neighborhoods, especially since we weren’t. The process was a breeze thanks to her  professionalism, receptiveness and dedication.

Jen Flynn


Alex went above and beyond to help me sell my mothers home. She was great at recommending people for work that needed to be done on the home and held many open houses. She is very personable, knowledgable and very professional.

I would definitely recommend Alex and will use her again when the need  a raises.

Karen Clawson


Alex has helped me sell 2 homes and purchase 1. I will definitely be contacting Alex when I am ready for my next purchase. Alex is very enjoyable to work with. She is easy to get a hold of when you have questions about the transaction taking place or just want an update. Alex is very honest and  will go the extra mile to help you out with your transaction. I highly recommend working with Alex for your next purchase or sell.

Brian Anderson


Alex was incredible for us and as 1st time home buyers this was a really important factor in our purchase.  She was available for us and had answers to all of our questions no matter how insignificant.  I would highly recommend Alex in the Portland area!

Brittany Reinhart


Alex definitely knows Portland! Alex was referred to us and we are thankful she was. She has helped my family with the purchase of a condo and our new custom built home in NW Portland. Alex was there with all the negotiations and during the construction of our home with updates, which was wonderful  being out of state buyers. We highly recommend working with Alex Page. Total 5 Star Service!

Don Haber


We hired Alex this year to sell two houses for us, as we were consolidating households.  Alex was always very accessible and responsible.  We never had to follow up and check in, she was proactive and communicating with us regularly.  Our first house sold in 30 days, and the second house sold in 1  day! 

I have purchased/sold a handful of homes over the years, and Alex is by far the best agent I have worked with.  I highly recommend her.

Erik Chapman


Dana helped me sell my home of 16 years and then a year later purchase a condo.  She was knowledgeable, and fun to work with.  The paperwork and recommendations about negotiation made sense to me.  Since it was my first house and I had raised my children there, it was emotionally difficult to go through things quickly.  Dana gave me space, yet encouraged me as I went forward. 

I made the changes to the house that she recommended and felt that I got a good price within a fairly short time.  She also referred me to people I was able to trust for staging, inspection and how the closing would go.

When I was ready to purchase again a year later, she knew me.  We reconnected and looked at several properties.  Dana was sensitive to the lifestyle that I wanted and showed me things I found as well as sorted through the listings to pick things I would probably like.  We kept going after the first offer I made did not work out.  I am in a place that fits my life-even my grown kids think so!  It is also in a neighborhood that has things to do that are important to me (art and eating out) and has good access. 

I would work with Dana again, but plan to stay where I am for a good long time. 

Thank you,

Greta Hartman


I have known Dana since my early twenties.  We met when I was looking to purchase my first home. I must have dragged her through over 30 houses. She was unbelievably patient with me and never gave up hope of finding me my perfect starter home. I remained in that house for 8 years and when I had moved away and needed someone to trust and help me through a long distance house safe; she was the on[y one I would ask.

Dana, once again, was amazing throughout this process. She had helped with staging the house, had an open house every weekend, and she would even stop by during the week to check on the house since no one was living in it. She went way beyond what I would have asked for in a Realtor. I believe the house sold in less than a month and that was at the time of the declining market that alone would tell you about her work ethic.

Dana is a great asset to have if you are looking to purchase a house or selling one.  I would recommend her to anyone as a Realtor and as a friend. Thank you for all your hard work and patience.

I just wanted to extend a big thank you to Dana Cody for all her hard work for us over the years, but especially in our most recent real estate transaction. Dana helped us relocate to Portland almost 10 years ago and secure our first home. About 2 years ago, we were ready to relocate and Dana assisted us in watching the market and guiding us as when was “the right time” to sell.

Last summer, the market significantly improved and she let us know this was “the time”. My husband and I decided that we wanted to put our house on the market early 2015. She came over to do a walk through and made suggestions for preparing the house for sale given our 6 month time frame to get ready. The list was not long, and despite the fact that Dana had a team of professionals she recommended to help us complete the repairs and freshening, we felt we could do the fixes ourselves. In the meantime, we found our new home and didn’t want to wait to sell for fear of losing this nice piece of real estate. Dana was on the phone with the seller’s realtor within hours of me contacting her saying “this is the one we want.” We made an offer and before the ink was dry she already had inspections lined up in anticipation of the sellers saying yes to our offer. No time was lost in waiting around for the inspections etc. Dana was personally at each inspection and we received notification of all results very quickly. We were able to go from seeing the house we loved, to moving in, in just 21 days- the day after Christmas no less. I doubt most realtors would spend their Christmas Eve with their clients signing final documents- but Dana did, and we really appreciate her willingness to give up her family time to help my family have a new home.

So that leaves us with the harder side, the selling of our existing home on a very busy street in close in Portland. The clock was ticking and as we fixed things, more items popped up. I will be honest here, it got a bit overwhelming. Having known Dana for a very long time- we knew all her suggestions were the right ones, but it seemed a lot. But that’s how Dana is- she has great attention to detail and is attune to the market and what buyers are looking for. Fortunately for us, that team she mentioned 5 months earlier, well Dana started making calls for us to get the painter and the wood guy and soon our 90 year old Tudor was sparkling. We appreciated the fact that she made the calls for us, I know other realtors don’t do that for their clients. The house went up for sale and Dana was VERY patient in my daily emails asking for status. We went pending in 5 weeks, which was excellent for our busy street. The buyer was difficult, yet Dana kept her cool, working closely with the buyer’s realtor to ensure the deal was successful, we closed escrow in April. My husband and I firmly believe in Dana’s abilities. She has taken great care of us in 3 very different real estate transactions. She is always patient in explaining the different aspects of the transactions. Even when things got tense in our recent sale, she listened, let us express our frustrations and then she went right to work with the buyers realtor and got the job done. We have no doubt that when we want to buy or sell again; Dana will be the professional we will count on to get the job done.
