“Dawn worked with us on our house sale recently and I cannot stress how professional of an experience this was. Her first question to me was what two things do you want in a realtor, and she at all times made sure that my needs and wants were upfront. Definitely someone I would recommend to sell or buy in the future. Thanks again Dawn, for EVERYTHING!”
Amber Taillon
“I was moving back to Pendleton, from Salem, and needed a home quickly. I called Dawn and asked her to find me a home in a specific area of town, and within a certain budget. I was only going to be in town a couple of days, so she needed to act quickly. She found me 3 homes to look at during that trip. She is knowledgeable about the market, and even had a list of inspectors and contractors that I might need. I chose one of the homes and got the ball rolling. She was always available to answer questions, and even set up appointments for contractors to give me bids. After the sale: Since the sale, Dawn has kept in touch, checking to see if I needed anything. She even sent a gift card to say thanks. She is the type of Realtor that cares above and beyond the sale. I will recommend her and use her for all of my future real estate needs.”

“Dawn made our long-distance home buying experience so much less stressful than we could have ever imagined. Her expertise answered all of our concerns and explained things in a way that made things very clear for us. The list of recommendations for other business needs we will have once we move to our new home and State has been very complete and thorough.”
Lisa Hunhoff
“Dawn was fantastic from the very beginning to the very end. I think she did above and beyond her job. She did everything to make me feel comfortable buying my first house at 55. She gave me all the information that I needed to get in contact with insurance and utilities. I just felt like I had somebody that I could really count on I’m sure she got tired of my texting but she was always there for me. Thank you so much for making this a comfortable and exciting experience for me.”
Lucia Johnson

Perry Hawkins
“Dawn is a great agent, whom cares about her clients. She is always looking out for her clients, and their home needs. Call Dawn today, and she will help you sell your home, or help you find your dream home”
Jami Moore
“Dawn and Nathan were nothing short of incredible during our journey to homeownership. The first thing Dawn did was sit me down and outline the entire process for me, while I took notes, so I could start off feeling a little informed. There was never any such thing as a stupid question, and they both went out of their way to make sure that we had every part of the process covered. Dawn, in particular, is an excellent advocate for her clients, who has a ton of resources, boatloads of expertise, and an a positive, practical attitude that makes those she works with feel at ease. We had a bumpy ride on the process to owning our own home, but they helped to support us, to guide us, and to advocate for us through the entire process, even when we were frustrated and wanted to stop looking. They’re excellent at their job and are experts in their field, but just as importantly, they’re also legitimately good people who want the best for you, your family, and your new home. If you’re looking for a new home, especially in this market, you couldn’t do better than Paladin.”
Bill Forge
“Dawn was good keeping me informed as an out of state buyer, and provided extra pictures and videos for properties I wasn’t able to view in person. She was accommodating, and showed sometimes four or five properties, of interest, over a broad area in a single day.”

Jimmie Wilkins
“The most professional , knowledgeable, proactive and considerate real estate professional I have ever worked with (and this is my 4th home). I wouldn’t change agents now for love or money.”
Debbie Brown
“Dawn worked with us for at least 2 years as we prepared to move into the area from Southern California. Over that time she was highly responsive, relatable, encouraging, and forthcoming with things such as weather, market conditions, expectations, and the various connections we’d need once we were here. As we got closer to our actual moving date we looked at properties virtually then asked for virtual walk-through’s. Dawn obliged by bringing our daughter and her husband along so we could ‘see’ our options. We ended up buying the house sight-unseen – meaning without a first hand look – but did look over the house via a virtual walk through. Dawn is a professional and has a system in place so you know what is going on with each step of your transaction. And, you will not be treated as a transaction number! Throughout the entire process I was given the feeling we were her only clients – except we know better! Dawn listens. Dawn brings properties to your attention that are likely what you are looking for; just as she did for us in 2 out of 3. It was the 3rd one we bought. When I had hesitations, she answered knowingly about the property and provide facts and knowledge for us to consider. I expect this to be the last home we buy, but if we were to do it again, Dawn would be the first call I make. I highly recommend her. Thank you, Dawn, for all you did for us and the way you’ve stayed connected post-transaction. You are appreciated!”
K Montague
“Dawn has been my realtor of choice for several years of searching for the perfect home for me. When I finally found it, she and Nathan were very accommodating & responsive during the scheduling of inspections and walk-throughs. I’d recommend both of them for any real estate needs.”

Bob Shafer
“We contacted Dawn from out of state to put an offer on a home we were looking at on Zillow. Dawn went above and beyond giving us constant updates of the property and process. We were very satisfied with Dawn as our real estate agent and would and will recommend Dawn to others or another purchase. The stress in this transaction was minimal with her guidance and professionalism was flawless. Highly recommended”
Marvin M.
I have known this team for over 4 years. I have bought and sold 3 properties in this time frame. I would recommend them. They give excellent advice and help you understand what your options are and how they will work together. Follow up on your needs is always the way they take care of your questions.

I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor.”

“We had a great home buying experience with Dawn! She was quick to respond, took lots of time to talk with us and show us properties, and was knowledgeable in answering our questions. I have recommended her to friends and will continue to do so.”
Jeff Gordon
“Dawn and Nathan were absolutely fantastic to work with. They were involved with every part of the process constantly from start to finish. We had a very difficult one together. Yet we worked as a team to help keep the file moving. Dawn and Nathan negotiated the repairs needing to be completed by the seller. At the end of the day they had a team mentality to ensure our mutual client was taken care of at all times. I look forward to working with them in the future.”
Chris Adams
“Dawn was my agent on my first ever home purchase. She made the whole process easy for me. I have my dream cabin in the mountains thanks to Dawn. She kept me informed of all changes in a timely manner and explained to me how those changes were going to affect me. I highly recommend Dawn if you are in the market for a home in Oregon. Thank you Dawn for helping Sandy and me get our retirement home in the mountains.”
Andy Hamilton
“Dawn was always in contact. When ever we were interested in something she gave us her input. We drove all the way from post falls Idaho to Hermiston to look at houses and she was there to help us. Even when it was at the end of her day she stuck around and helped. She was very patient with us. We could not have done thos with out her.”
Sterrin Holcomb
“Dawn assisted me with downsizing, both the selling and purchasing. Her knowledge of the market and comparisons help me to select a competitive price for my home, which I sold very quickly. The home I sold was beautiful, but over 100 years old, which generally brings extra challenges. I would not have done as well selling it on my own. She had great contacts and suggestions to assist with any necessary repairs or inspections. She always responded back quickly and kept me informed through every step of both the sale and purchase of both homes. She was my advocate on behalf of the new purchase and her quick response helped me secure a beautiful new home. She was helpful with suggestions while at the same time giving me space to make decisions, which is a real skill. She made my life less stressful during a period of huge transition and I am completely satisfied with the results!”
Casey Cheek
“Dawn was able to find us the “perfect home” even with our specific needs! We are grateful that Dawn was able to assist us through a lengthy, somewhat complicated sale…which she did with grace & ease. She was available & answered multiple questions quickly, giving us as much information as she could gather. She was definitely our partner in making our purchase. Forms, etc were explained well & docusign was a great help-as my husband was out of town. We appreciate her service which went far beyond just the purchase of a house!”
Shelly Jesser
“Dawn is an agent I would recommend again and again to anyone! She responds very quickly and is eager to help you find what you are looking for. She is beside you through the entire purchase till the end. And after that it doesn’t stop…..she truly cares that you are happy in your home! I will look to Dawn for any of my future real estate needs and so will my friends and family! Thanks Dawn!”
Steve Churchill
“Dawn is a very conscientious realtor who has embraced her passion for finding you the right home. She is most knowledgeable in her field after only a few years in the business. She seeks to educate herself and follow-up with her clients after the sale in a most thoughtful way.”
Chloe Norris
“Dawn helped us buy our home when we were moving from out of state. She answered all of our questions not only about the house itself, but about our move and the community as well. She was more than willing to try to help with any question we threw at her!”
John Taylor
“Dawn did a great job for me in both helping me list and sell one house, and locate and buy another. Her knowledge of the local market was (and is) first rate! Her advice and suggestions for getting a quick sale were spot on as well.”

Nika Blasser
“Dawn helped us purchase our first home last year and was great to work with. She was very responsive and answered our multitude of first-time-homebuyer questions throughout the whole process. She was by far the best realtor that I spoke with in the Pendleton area. Highly recommended!”
Carol Slack
“Dawn was amazing during the entire purchase process, AND after! Asking if everything was okay and helping with a problem we had with the refrigerator. She still gives me tips, which is so appreciated. Best realtor I have ever worked with!”
Frank Erickson
“Dawn did everything possible to do for us in selling our home in Pendleton — her expertise and effectiveness are examples of what an agent should be. She made it possible for us to prepare our home for sale from off-site. We would definitely hire her again for any future deals.”
Cheryl Seigal
“In this age where so many people shop via the Internet (and thru apps such as Zillow, Truila and more) Dawn was awesome making sure that our property was highly visible! Any way that people were searching, they found our listing. Better she provided us constant feedback about the activity our listing was generating. This really contributed to a quick sale. When we entered the contact phase, Dawn was again outstanding! We were out of state sellers and she really went the extra mile. We always knew what was happening. If you are looking for a top notch agent, we highly recommend Dawn.”
