I worked with Jaclyn Oakland from The Ladd Group in Bend, Oregon. Fabulous! Very bright, caring, any questions you have about real estate and the local area she can answer. Very motivated, but not pushy. Went out of her way to help. Also, very kind, and easy to be around!
We chose Erin Martin with the Ladd Group to list our home. She exceeded our expectations multiple times over with her personal service and timely manner. A real go getter. We really appreciated all of her hard work and late hours she worked on our behalf. Superior service with a true professional group.
My husband and I decided we loved Oregon and wanted to start house hunting. Since we currently live out of country Alice sent us weekly updates of houses on the market that matched our criteria. When we came into town she rearranged her schedule to accommodate us. We were impressed by the effort she put into giving us all the information we asked for and when she didn’t know, she always found the answer. Looking for a home is time consuming so the weekly updates were very helpful in monitoring the market and being prepared to make a good offer. After closing Alice helped us with some issues when the seller’s agent couldn’t be bothered. We really appreciate Alice’s dedication to excellence and her caring attitude toward her clients. Thank you Alice, we love our new house.
We bought a home in 2017 and I found Alice randomly on a Web site and was so happy I did. She has bent absolutely over backwards in helping us find our dream home. She has been 100% clear about all facets of buying a home and carefully explained everything to us in full detail as we meandered in and out of the home buying process! We couldn’t have done it without her!
We bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Awbrey Butte, Bend, OR. Alice listened to our needs and wishes and found the perfect neighborhood. We have recently moved in and could not be happier! I would recommend her to all my friends.
My representative at the Ladd Group was Steve LaCrosse and in spite of talking with numerous firms and sales agents, he was the only one I felt comfortable enough to trust to represent me in a significant financial transaction. The characteristics that distinguish Steve from many is that he actually cares, listens, communicates honestly and with his intelligence, this allowed him to meet and overcome adversity in stride. After listening to my rambling about what I wanted and didn’t want, he synthesized this information into a workable plan to find me a home, which he did on day one, only because he had listened and kept re-checking his interpretations. I presented some unexpected challenges to Steve but, he just calmly assisted me in resolving all issues along the way and within 5 weeks I was living in Bend! I will never use anyone else for my real estate needs and I highly recommend The Ladd Group and specifically Steve LaCrosse as they are truly real estate professionals who get the job done. This is my 8th home and my best real estate purchase experience of them all!
We had an amazing experience with the Ladd Group. They were incredibly knowledgable of the local market and presented excellent data to help formulate the price point on our home. With them we were able to sell our home in 12 days, at an above asking price with multiple offers. Steve LaCrosse worked most directly with us and also helped us find our current home in addition to selling our home. He was accessible, hardworking and always had our vision and needs in mind. We highly highly recommend!
Alice Fairbairn was great to work with! It took us almost a year to find the right house and Alice was super helpful every step of the way. This was by far the best and the least stressful home purchase I’ve ever had. I can’t recommend her enough if you’re looking for a house.
Steve LaCrosse from the Ladd Group was a spectacular real estate agent. He took the time to get to know who we were and what we needed during the process. I felt like he cared about matching us up with the right property instead of just selling something. I’ve already recommended him to many people asking for agents who know the area from the view of a family member, not just that of a salesman.
Denise was very supportive and helpful during the house buying and selling process. She was knowledgeable; and her steady, low key style suited my likes and needs. I very much enjoyed working with her.

Brian excelled in all aspects of what I would expect from a realtor. The bottom line is that he successfully sold our home for full asking price in a mere two days. He is professional, communicates step-by-step the process, and made me feel confident that our home was going to be given his full attention. His took great pictures and uses high quality marketing materials. I highly recommend (and I have already to family) working with Brian and would do again. -Anonymous
Bryan Hilts was profoundly attentive and effective at getting us our second home that we desired for a real estate investment. We are so pleased with the home, location and of course price in such a ridiculously competitive market. Unlike many real estate agents, Bryan really listened to our needs and didn’t waste our time showing us houses that did not meet our requirements or were not in our price range. I am grateful for his expertise in making the whole experience a lot more easier
Bryan Hilts, a part of the Ladd Group of Cascade Sotheby’s International Realty, was an outstanding help to us in purchasing our home in Bend. We worked together for the better part of a year while we were still living in the Hillsboro area. He helped us explore most of the areas in and around Bend, refine our wants, needs, likes, dislikes, pluses and minuses of different areas we were interested in. He has a vast knowledge of Central Oregon which was a great help to us. Bryan is a very respons…
Brian and his team exceeded our expectations and had to put up with a some difficult situations (through no fault of theirs) while we sold the home. They also managed to sell our home while we were completely absentee – in California. They shot and produced a FANTASTIC marketing video, which I think really helped and everyone at the Ladd Group was responsive and helpful. Highly recommended to anyone looking to buy/sell in Bend OR area. -Tim
This Ladd team is the most professional team of realtors I have ever dealt with. They are compassionate and detailed in every phase of the process and their communication is above reproach as we were involved in every phase of the sale of our home and the purchase of our new home. Bryan Hilts was especially helpful during the entire process of selling our home and buying a townhome.

We began our search from out of state and Brian was exactly what we needed. He is a transplant to the region and has done extensive research about the area and what each neighborhood has to offer. He easily understood what we were looking for, and when we finally made an offer (sight unseen) it was because we trusted what he saw in addition to his knowledge and support. I would highly recommend working with Brian. -Anonymous
Brian has been a tremendous help to marketing Greg Welch Construction homes and showing the quality of work we can provide. From video adds to print and open communication – We recieve the highest quality of promotion a builder in this market could ask for. Thanks Brian! -Anonymous
Brian is a joy to work with. His background in construction is a definite plus and helped us stay away from some questionable properties. He led us through the buying process and was always there to answer any questions or resolve issues that came up. His guidance and expertise were greatly appreciated and I would highly recommend him when choosing a realtor. -Anonymous
