My Thoughts:
People come and go in this industry, but when you’ve been around for a while you build up credibility – a huge part of my business now comes from referrals and repeat business, and I take that trust very seriously.
I foresee potential problems and deal with them before they become a problem. I pride myself on quality personalized service and provide the highest level of that to my buyers and sellers.
I live in Central Oregon for the outdoor activities and lifestyle in a small city with big city amenities.

What Oleta Yancey's Clients are Saying.
Oleta’s help was essential from beginning to end. This was the first time for me to sell a home on my own, and I was very intimidated by the process. Oleta took time to walk me through each step and explained everything in a way that made me feel confident to move forward. Her guidance made all the difference. I highly recommend Oleta Yancey for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
Oleta Yancy made our move to Bend as smooth as possible. She guided us to neighborhoods to meet our needs, listened to our house preferences carefully and responded quickly to our questions. Her recommendations for inspectors, title companies and even insurance brokers and hairdressers were all great. She really goes the extra mile.
It has been a pleasure working with you, you made a process that could have been very difficult to manage remotely, clear, easy to follow, and your advice was invaluable. We also really appreciate your quick response time, you made my first property purchase enjoyable. Thank you!
We couldn’t have selected a better realtor.
I had a lot of questions and Oleta listens, and has answers for me, if she doesn’t she will find one. Oleta has a good understanding of what is going on in the local real estate market and I know I can trust her. I feel like the offer I made was just right and the house is perfect for me. Thank you Oleta! You have made a customer for life.
Oleta was an outstanding agent and very enjoyable to work with. She is very knowledgeable and helped us through a very rough time in selling my Dad's house after his passing. It wasn't easy as Dad lived in Bend, and I lived a couple of hours away. Her recommendations and connections in the Bend area were very instrumental in helping us get our best price. Oleta came highly recommended from a friend and I'm glad we choose Oleta to help us through a very difficult period.
Oleta was a wealth of information from the start. She was available any time and help every step of the way. Our house was sold before it hit the market! She helped set up all appointments and oversaw everything.
