What our clients Say

“Kathleen has been fantastic and has been the most creative and professional realtor we have ever worked with. She is an amazingly hard working and effective sales person and we hope to do more business with her in the future.”

— John & Payung

“Amy was so great to work with! My husband and I were first-time homebuyers with a
lot of questions and Amy always had us covered. She was always one step ahead of
us with answers to questions or concerns we had. She is knowledgeable,
professional, personable, and honest and without a doubt, had our best interest at
heart. We will be referring anyone we know who's looking to buy or sell to her. She
was a pleasure to work with. She's simply amazing.”

— Amanda L.

“We wanted to thank you for creating such a positive moving and buying experience. We really feel that you went the extra mile (or two) for us on a number of occasions.”

— Julia & Josh

Portland Metropolitan Area & Southern Oregon

Whether helping my client make a wise investment or find the perfect home, I am passionate about being their advocate and making the process as smooth as possible for them. As a Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (LHMS) with over ten years of real estate customer service experience, I’m well equipped to handle any bumps in the road.

Fluent in French and Italian, I’ve traveled throughout Europe and even lived in Italy for six months. For three years I worked as a professional actress in Los Angeles and continue to act in films and television shows today as Caitlin Michael Riley. My global experience allows me a unique insight into the diverse needs of my clients and any others involved in the transaction.

Oregon has always been my home, providing me with knowledge of the area and continuing to be my favorite place to spend time. I work throughout the Medford/ Jacksonville/ Ashland/ Grants Pass area, here to bring O’Donnell Group Realty’s concierge-based service to you or your referrals!

Caitlin continues to give back to her community by donating a portion of all her sales to her alma mater and volunteering for local school organizations.

Amy jamros

Portland Metropolitan Area, SW Washington & Central Oregon

A native Oregonian and genuine “people person”, I bring focus, intelligence and a strong work ethic in serving my clients.

Whether helping first time buyers realize their dream of homeownership or working as a welcoming ambassador to Portland, I possess an intimate knowledge of this great city and its nuanced neighborhoods. I am also a Certified International Property Specialist.

I work efficiently to ensure that the process of buying and selling a home is rewarding and gratifying. I take the time to understand each and every one of my clients’ unique circumstances, and believe that open communication is the pillar of any successful Real Estate transaction.

A fitness enthusiast, Amy loves being outside and staying active while engaged with her community. She is also passionate about education and volunteers her time at SMART, a local non-profit that provides books and one-on-one reading support to children in Oregon.

Sarah Johnson

Portland Metropolitan Area & Central Oregon

My favorite part of my job is building strong relationships with my clients to ensure a calm and smooth process for everyone involved.

By listening to my client’s needs and concerns, I can guide them through the process of buying and selling with ease. I bring integrity, enthusiasm, hard work, kindness and joy to every detail of my real estate transactions.

Born and raised in Portland, I know the city and surrounding areas extremely well. A Wilson High School alum myself, my three kids are now on track to attend Wilson too, as I have settled back into the SW neighborhood where I grew up.

Before moving back to Portland, my husband and I moved 7 times in 8 years, so I understand the transitions of moving, finding a home and relocating, and want to help ease that process for my clients.

When not working, Sarah can be found volunteering at her kid’s schools, in her community, and at her church. She also loves to spend time in the kitchen cooking and baking, and hanging out with friends and family. Sarah values giving back locally and globally, and a portion of all her sales go to Safe Families PDX and Haiti Foundation of Hope.

Portland Metropolitan Area, Salem, and SW Washington

As a Luxury Broker, Senior Real Estate Specialist and Certified Aging in Place Specialist, I understand that the process of buying or selling your home can be an adventure, whether it’s your first home or your last. My strength is truly listening to what you want and helping you turn your dreams into reality. I love seeing a home through my clients’ eyes and imagining how it will transform into their own. By partnering with you on this real estate adventure, I can ensure that our time together results in the very best this city has to offer.

Though originally from Oregon, I have lived all over the US and spent time travelling the world. My time now is spent in SW Portland raising my 3 kids to be the best humans they can be and playing with my husband, 2 dogs and 2 cats. When not in Portland, volunteering or navigating the complexities of a family of 5, we are often at our home in Central Oregon enjoying long walks, the sweet high desert air and an occasional, lakeside Pacific NW brew.

A clinical social worker for most of my career, I am deeply involved in standing up for the rights of others to live with dignity and advocating for equitable access to education, healthcare and housing. I take every opportunity to promote women in trades and LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC-owned businesses. Find a recommended tradesperson on my website at www.jackiehaddonhomes.com

I value the opportunity to be of service to my community and donate a portion of my time and $500 per completed transaction to organizations that dedicate their energy to doing the same. A few of my favorites are Taking Ownership PDX,  A Village for One, Girls Build Inc, Cascadia Clusters and Fair Housing Council of Oregon. Check out these links to learn more about them

Ultimately, I believe everyone deserves a place to live that truly feels like home. It is my job and my honor to help you find yours.
