Ricky Baker - Testimonials

Ricky provided the highest level home buying experience we could have ever hoped for.

Once he found the perfect house for us he was swift and sharp with his execution of our offer and coordination with the seller. After more than a dozen offers and 24hrs on the market the house was ours. We are still pinching ourselves and can’t begin to express our gratitude for Ricky’s professionalism and diligence.

The only bad thing I could possible say is that Ricky has raised the bar of what is to be expected from Realtors to such a near unachievable level, my wife and I joke that we could not imagine going with anyone else. Having worked with many different realtors in many different cities/states, Ricky is bar far and away the best I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Professional, excellent communication and feedback, and incredibly quick with response times and deadlines, he has very much set the standard of excellence for both my wife and myself. You cannot go wrong with someone who is as dedicated, hardworking, and knowledgable as Ricky. We could not recommend him highly enough. I’d give more stars if I could!

Moved from Ca to Bend. Ricky Baker was more than I could of asked for in a realtor, he listened to what we wanted, scheduled when we were in area, and had great knowledge of the houses and area's. When we found the one he was so helpful in every way, he was at house for appliance deliveries, multiple inspections, painters, anything we asked or even thought about he was there to help, since we were still in ca. I've used several realtors over the years, Ricky is the best, professional, sincere, and very helpful, always returned calls when I had questions. I would reccomend Ricky all day every day to use as your realtor.

Ricky’s professionalism, communication and commitment allowed me to sell my house in the most challenging circumstances. Beyond that, Ricky demonstrated tremendous care and understanding throughout resulting in the most ideal outcome for my family.

The first time buying a home is a stressful process, and having an agent that you can trust makes a huge difference. Ricky went above and beyond for us to make sure we were satisfied with our home purchase. He stayed in constant communication when we needed him, he always stayed on top of timelines, he had a plethora of helpful resources, and he kept us aware of important considerations. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone else that is looking to purchase a home. Thanks Ricky!

Ricky made this very difficult sale happen. He is professional, very knowledgeable and easy to work with. From our first meeting I felt confident that he would advise me on what to do regarding the best options for selling. He is very knowledgeable in what it takes to sell a condominium. I had complete trust in his abilities to get the job done. He always gave me options and suggestions. I’m very happy he agreed to sell my condo and would recommend him to anyone. He relieved a lot of my stress by being kind and patient. Somehow he always made me laugh and feel better during a very stressful time in my life. I can’t thank him enough.

Rick is experienced, knowledgeable, and caring. His strong network with the local real estate agents helped us buy a house in the competitive market of spring 2022. Memorable anecdote to share: when our offers got continuously rejected with the houses sold in four days on average, my patience ran out. Out of frustration, I could have made the mistake of buying a house that I was not satisfied with. I can't forget the consoling moment when he assured us that there would be more opportunities and we didn't need to rush. And it did. Rick's positivity and acute market analysis saved me from making poor decisions. He graciously waited until we found a house that checked all the boxes. Rick is also fun and caring to visit houses for viewing. My husband and I had a grateful home-buying experience with Rick and strongly recommend him.

If you want someone to be responsive, fast, on your side and get that local-friendly feel. Look NO further than Ricky. Without him we wouldn't have stood a chance. We were first-time home buyers and he helped in every step he could as well as bringing in trusted professionals to help with our concerns. Overall if you go with Ricky know you have a whole team on your side.

I have had the pleasure of working with Ricky and his clients on several real estate transactions. He is always on time for appointments, knowledgeable of the home and his clients are always telling how great it has been to work with him. Keep up the good work Ricky!

Our sincere Thanks to “West and Main Homes Oregon” and especially to Ricky.

When starting our Journey of finding a home, my wife and I were nervous of who we would get for a realtor and if we would click. We seriously could not have gotten a better realtor than Ricky. Ricky made us feel so comfortable, confidant and safe while looking for our dream home and he was always available to answer any questions we may have had. He was always on the lookout for potential homes and got us in to see any house we desired. Something I respected a lot about Ricky was that he was just as brutally honest about things as he was supportive on our visions and thoughts. Definitely a five-star Realtor.

I have worked with many realtors in my lifetime and Ricky exceeded all our expectations. He has so many great qualities that I look for in a realtor and in a person also, which is more important to me.

There are more superlatives I can add but many others already have, so I just want to say; I highly recommend Ricky. He is hard working, very knowledgeable, straight forward, honest, and caring.
