Testimonials


“We have now worked with Rick Harris and his team on two home purchases and one sale, and from our very first interaction, Rick and team have been helpful, insightful, and have shown a great deal of knowledge about the Ashland market. But more than that, they’ve proven themselves to be very honest and extremely pleasant people to work with, even after our deals have closed. For those reasons, we look forward to working with Rick and team again on any of our future real estate transactions.”

“I’m someone from out of state and Rick’s years of experience were critical in helping me understand all aspects of buying rural property in Jackson County. Rick was patient through my multi-year search as I sorted through the options and clearly came to understand what I wanted and what was the best for me. Rick clearly had an understanding of the market, even in these chaotic times, and I’m satisfied Rick got me the best price with the best deal structure. Rick knew the questions to ask when I didn’t, made sure that I was aware of all things to consider, and was able to educate me to be a better buyer and ultimately landowner.

Without exception, when I dealt with other professionals in the field and mentioned that I was working with Rick Harris, everyone said “he’s the best”. Many mentioned Rick’s years of service to the profession, the training he does, and his high level of involvement in the industry. I definitely felt I was working with the best, he had my interests at heart, and was willing to go the extra mile to complete the deal.”

“It’s cliché, but words cannot express how grateful I am to Rachelle Beveridge. I’ve appreciated her calm demeanor and patience throughout. It’s been a long road, but we finally found the perfect place for me. She was there for me through the entire process—through laughter and crying when my emotions were close to the surface. And she validated whatever I was feeling. She checked in with me to see how I was doing when there were long periods of nothing to look at. I know it was very discouraging, but now I can look ahead to brighter days.

I’ve appreciated Rachelle’s familiarity with new construction and the way she explained things to me. Not a lot of Realtors have that skillset. She followed through and her attention to detail was exceptional.

I could go on and on with the compliments – just know she’s been amazing!”

“I am so happy to get the opportunity to give feedback regarding my experience working with Rachelle Beveridge. I was tasked with selling the house my parents lived in for 20 years, they have both passed recently so on top of being an unfamiliar transaction it was also an emotional one. Rachelle walked me through every step and phase and options, more than once. She was wonderful about not making me feel rushed or stressed. She was very patient, understanding that I had only sold one house in the past and that this situation was different. She had so many contacts and ideas on getting the house ready ... and they all worked out. The pool guy she connected me with was amazing to work with and all the thrift/estate stores took everything we had to donate. She then had the house staged and it really updated the house and made it look current and inviting. It seemed like we had quite a few different groups of buyers come through the house which led me to believe she made herself very available. We had different types of offers and she advised me about what to consider ... The house was sold and closed before I knew it! and the title company was so knowledgeable!! Selling a house across state lines and out of a trust created a few extra hoops to jump through but they helped navigate me. The whole process was done with professional friendly grace. And at the speed I could maintain. If I had another real estate transaction I would call Rachelle first for sure!! Thanks again for your team's help. They did their very best to make a difficult time a little less difficult.”

“We recently sold a piece of property and needed to purchase another using a 1031 exchange. Rick Harris Real Estate Group was our broker and I am so glad for it. Rick helped us navigate the process the whole way through. His advice and guidance was crucial for the success of our transaction. There were some unexpected roadblocks in the sale/purchase that I don't think we could have overcome without Rick's help. His knowledge and calm, methodical attitude made us feel reassured that it was all going to work out. From the offer stage, scheduling inspections, obtaining bids for work to be done, coordinating with the exchange company, to signing the papers, Rick took care of it all. I don't think you could find a better broker out there.”

“We knew we had a 'difficult' house to sell because it was small, with no off-street parking and no garage; and the house went on the market the day Russia invaded Ukraine and the markets began to slide. But the Rick Harris Group stuck with us, advising what best to do to enhance the property, and occasionally helping with minor maintenance when we were out of the area. It was a pleasure working with them.”

- Mick

“We recently had the good fortune to be referred to Rick Harris to represent us in the selling of our home in Ashland, OR. Rick and his team at the Rick Harris Group handled our transaction with the utmost professionalism, and yet with a kind sensitivity to our aging needs, and our utter lack of knowledge in how to go about the whole process. Rick always explained and made sure we understood each step taken. He listened as we described the love we had for the home we were leaving and definitely communicated this in the marketing of the property. We believe this really contributed to the multiple offers we had and the quick sale. There were many such incidents of help, and going “above and beyond” in assisting us in any way needed. The result was that where the sale could have been stressful, it was not. We have since recommended Rick and his team to several people and will continue to do so.”

- Toni & Jim

“It has been such a pleasure dealing with Rick for the past twenty-five years as he has represented both me and my family in various real estate transactions both as buyers and sellers. We appreciated both his professionalism and competency. Most recently I was impressed with his compassion and understanding in helping my son find and buy the right property to fulfill his needs.”

- Sybil

“It was a true pleasure benefiting from Rick’s experience and helpfulness working through the sale procedure, always knowing he would have answers to our questions or quickly find those in a way that smoothed the transaction for all concerned. We are both grateful for all the assistance and friendship Rick has offered to us and our immediate family over the years of ownership of our home and the successful transfer of that beloved family residence to someone who also came to value their experience of living there! That was an important hoped-for feature of our sale, which because a reality.”

- Steve

“When we decided to relocate to Ashland, OR we found a house that was a perfect fit for us. From the time we first met Rachelle to show us the home, her calm, steady approach to navigating our unique purchase circumstances set our minds at ease. All along the way Rachelle was responsive to our questions, anticipated our needs, and stayed ahead of things during the escrow process all the way through to closing. Her knowledge of and experience with the real estate market, especially in its current fast-paced condition, ensured that the entire process was as smooth as it could possibly be. We highly recommend her! Thank you, Rachelle!”

- Mark and Sally

“I have done a number of real estate transactions in the last several years dealing with a number of realtors. I have found Rachelle to be the most straightforward and clear assessor of realty marketing and transaction issues of any realtor I have dealt with. From carefully choosing the right listing price to the ins and outs of contingencies and inspections and the myriad of details of the appearance and cleanup of the home Rachelle has been by far the best among the realtors I have worked with. I highly recommend Rachelle for her knowledge and integrity in the often seller and buyer beware nature of real estate.”

“Before I’ll post a public review, a person has to make an exceptionally strong and favorable impression on me. Rick Harris did just that! His calm and patient demeanor immediately allayed my stress associated with buying a new house. He expertly guided me through a mountain of incomprehensible paperwork. When I heard he teaches an ethics class, my initial perception of him being an honest and honorable person were immediately confirmed. He is highly regarded in our community and I had the pleasure of discovering why! I confidently and wholeheartedly commend Rick Harris.”

“Mr. Rick Harris was recommended to us by our attorney and by one of our local judges. We were in a difficult situation personally and in a difficult market as well and needed to sell our 85 acre ranch. Mr. Harris lived up to his reputation and exceeded our expectations.

Mr. Harris researched the county records and copied pertinent documents. He walked the property and found the corner pins. He made sure he knew first hand as much about the property as possible.

Mr. Harris went over each and every document with us. He allowed us time to actually read each document and ask questions as needed. Mr. Harris knew the answers to our questions. His knowledge of real estate law, real estate forms, and real estate transactions is extensive.

We were treated with respect, consideration, and kindness throughout the entire process of listing our ranch, selling the ranch, and closing escrow. Mr. Harris went way beyond what is normally seen in a real estate transaction. He did what he said he would do. He advertised the property, he returned telephone calls promptly, and he followed through with each task completely. He hosted lunch and had the top sales folks out to see the ranch. He even helped us with some physical work that needed done in order for us to satisfy some contingencies of the sale.

When we first met with Rick Harris he told us what he thought and even though it was not completely to our liking, we did want his honest and professional opinion. Our home sold for what Mr. Harris expected. The important point is that the property did sell. Mr. Harris got the job done. He did it exceptionally well. We did not need to assist him in doing his job. We only needed to cooperate. It was a wonderful feeling to be able to simply let him do the job we hired him to do. We had enough on our plates to take care of and his outstanding work for us was a blessing.

We now consider Mr. Harris a friend. Our experience with him was so exceptional. We are pleased to recommend Rick Harris. You will not be disappointed in Rick Harris as a person or as a professional real estate agent. He is the best."
