Alaina is a wonderful agent she is kind a is very professional. She took the time to really understand what we were looking for. She also kept us focused on what we wanted and helped us through the process. I never felt pressure to move to quickly. We appreciate that it never felt like the sale was her priority. What we needed and wanted was always the priority. Less
A great experience working with Alaina. We had to rely on her to be our eyes since we did not live in the same city that we had the house for sale. She made sure that we were updated on all showings and when we received an offer, she continued keeping us informed about the progress of the sale. A very smooth transaction. She even showed up at the closing to make sure all went smoothly. We have bought and sold houses before and that was the first time our agent was at a closing. A very thoughtful thing2018. Thanks Alaina, great job!! Less
Alaina sold a home for us on the Oregon coast recently. She has a lot of connections in the area and moved the process along quickly once we got an offer. Since we are not from Oregon it was great to have an experienced agent because we mostly communicated by phone and email. She was very personable! Kathy Less
Alaina worked with us for over 2 years to find our home. As out of state buyers, she answered all the questions we had about various properties, gave her honest opinion on whether she thought the home was right for us, and also videotaped walkthroughs of homes we wanted additional details on. She made our purchase smooth and supported us throughout the process.
Highly likely to recommend
Alaina and her team are so very accommodating. She made selling and purchasing our home a breeze. I could not have asked for a better experience, will definitely be using her for all our real estate needs in the future!
Alaina Giguiere helped us sell our beach house. It has been a pleasure working with her. She is very professional, honest, clear, and on task while maintaining a pleasant and positive working relationship. Alaina giuded us to work through difficult issues associated with selling a home in an appropriate, calm and logical manner that produced the dsired outcome every time. She went above and beyond the call of duty to keep things moving in the right direction. It is our pleasure knowing such fine lady. Less
Alaina is very professional realtor! Combine this skill with a warm, energetic and no- nonsense personality and you can’t go wrong! Alaina truly wants to help you find a home that’s just right! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alaina. We love our beach house!!!!
Alaina is a great realtor. Alaina helped me to find my Cannon Beach home which I am thoroughly enjoying. She knows her market completely and is energetic and proactive. She looks for just the right house for her prospective home buyers according to the profile she has determined from listening to and observing them while seeing homes. Alaina was patient and willing to go out of her way for me throughout the whole process. She enjoys her work and she likes people and is well connected in the community. I highly recommend Alaina.
I contacted Alaina about a building lot we were looking at that was for sale by owner. She spent time with us researching the lot and making sure it was a solid investment. It was clear that she had our best interest in mind. She is very pleasant and very knowledgeable, and helped steer us in the right direction. 
I’m so glad things worked out you.It was my pleasure to be of help to you. I’m looking forward to seeing your new home when it’s finished.
Alaina helped me with a difficult situation with my deceased sister's estate. Her knowledge and expertise was invaluable to guiding me to making the right decisions regarding the sale of the property. She is one of those rare people who go out of their way to help simply because she believes it to be the right thing to do. Her kindness and compassion were very much appreciated and I highly recommend her services to anyone needing exceptional real estate services and expert advice. Highly likely to recommend
Alaina was great to work with for the sale of our home. It was tough for us to move away from the beach but she was supportive in every way & I would truly recommend her to anyone buying or selling in Cannon Beach. She's a great lady & knows her stuff!!
Alaina is wonderful to work with. She's very knowledgeable, responds quickly and helpful in negotiations. We really enjoyed and appreciated her talents!
We decided that it was time to downsize so we contacted an experienced professional, Alaina Giguiere. We are so pleased that we have sold our beach home & now we can concentrate on our new granddaughter too. We found Alaina to be attentive to detail, through & always in touch with us, keeping us updated on every aspect of the sale. Recommending Alaina is a pleasure.
Amazing, Amazing realtor! Always available to answer questions, super knowledgeable. Wouldn't hesitate to use her again or suggest her to anyone. I've dealt with many realtors in my years, so to impress me as she has done is no easy feat.
Alaina's thoughtful approach to selling my home put my mind at ease in what could have been a stressful process. It was a family house for over forty years and Alaina understood both the emotional attachment and the need to get the maximum return. She laid clear options out for me, but made it clear that the decisions were mine. I highly recommend Alaina. Any seller would be in good hands.
Alaina Giguiere knows real estate and understands the coastal area. She kept us informed as the house was shown and provided feedback from other realtors as well. Alaina's response to phone calls, emails and texts was always timely. Her experience was appreciated as the sale of our house proceeded smoothly to completion. We would highly recommend Alaina.
Alaina has been great in helping us purchase multiple properties. She is very knowledgeable about what the OR cost has to offer and we've had an awesome experience working with her. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
Alaina was great to work with. It was like she knew what we wanted before we knew what we wanted. The house we purchased is perfect for us and exactly where we wanted to be. Being from out of town and not knowing the area she provided us with a lot of information, options and insight. When we found the house we liked she moved quickly and negotiated a below asking price and all the extras we asked for. Not to mention a very quick close so we could enjoy the holiday weekend in our new vacation home. I would definitely recommend working with Alaina.
Not only is Alaina a great agent and a true professional, she is also honest, pragmatic, and fun. She seems to know everything about every property and business in town, and is more than happy to help before during and after the sale. I have to admit I don't know any other agents in town, but I can't imagine a better one.
Alaina is very alert to possibilities, always available, skilled at anticipating situations, very competent and pleasant. She follows through from a to z without prodding and shows both respect and concern for the well being of her clients. Buying and selling a home can be a very emotional experience! Highly recommended!
After having our home on the market for over a year, with another realtor, Alaina helped us get it sold. She was very helpful in letting us know what we needed to do to get the home sold. Once we took care of those items, the home sold right a way. We would recommend her to anyone trying to sell their home. Less
Alaina did a fantastic job from start to finish with my purchase of a home on the Oregon coast. She knows the local market inside and out and was a complete pleasure to deal with on all levels.
Coming from the desert Southwest we knew we wanted to find our home in what we call Paradise. Alaina patiently worked with us throughout this process, which sometimes was not easy because we would often change our mind! Alaina became our real estate advisor, public relation's person and tourist guide. We quickly realized how knowledgeable she is of the area. Alaina's goal was to make sure we would find our perfect home. The journey was fun and mission accomplished. We are very happy with our beautiful home and neighborhood. We now carry her business card with us and when someone asks for a real estate broker, we share our story with them and give them Alaina's information. Alaina is most definitely our real estate broker for life!Less
It has been my pleasure to work with you both. The part of it is that we have become great friends in the process..
Thank you so much for you kind words. I love that I can help make dreams come true.
We have bought and sold a number of homes and Alaina is the best agent to date. Her communication skills are outstanding and prompt. She is also well-connected with other agents on the north coast of Oregon.
Alaina has found two properties for me in the past several years. She was wonderful for both. I live across the country, and Alaina made it a smooth transaction.
Darren it is always fun to work with you. I appreciate your continued business and look forward our next deal together..
Alaina recently helped my husband and I purchase a second home in Cannon Beach. We really can't say enough good things about her. She spent time, over the course of 10 months, sharing her knowledge of the market, knowledge of the area, showing us homes and helping us maneuver through negotiations and all of the many other details that go with purchasing a home. If you want to work with an agent that knows the market, will work hard for you and, as an added bonus, is a lot of fun, we'd recommend Alaina. Less
Sabrina and Gregg , it certainly was the most interesting transaction I have had in sometime. I am so pleased that you love you new home. Thank you so much for hanging in there and for the very kind words. Alaina
Alaina stood by us for 3 years in our search for the perfect vacation home. She was always professional and patient and used her excellent expertise of the locations to help us finally close on our dream vacation home which we thoroughly love. She is a consummate professional and our transactions went through flawlessly and in record time. Less

I'm a real estate appraiser and have known and worked with Alaina for over 20 years. Recently, we closed on a house in Manzanita where Alaina was our Realtor on the purchase side. I know several Realtors in the area, but could not imagine working with anybody else. Believe me, you want Alaina on your side in a real estate transaction on the Northern Oregon Coast. There's none better. Steve G. Less

I recently was very fortunate to have the help of Alaina involving the short sale of a home in Manzanita, as part of an estate settlement. A short sale alone is an arduous and complicated process. In addition, we were dealing with a very difficult mortgage management company. Throughout the process, Alaina was diligent, always responsive, and persevered to the completion of the sale. Her advice in preparing the house for sale was completely sound. She supported me thoroughly, never missing a response to a phone call or email. There were times when I was very discouraged due to the difficulty in communicating with the mortgage management company. Alaina never wavered in her positive and affirming approach. Her diligence and skill were what ultimately brought about a successful sale. I will always be grateful that it was Alaina that I worked with in selling this home. Less
It was my honor to help you with the transaction. Given the trying circumstances I am so glad I was able to assist.
Alaina helped me find the perfect beach house!! Alaina is absolutely the best of the best! She was referred to me from a realtor in Los Angeles that I had worked with for many years. We spoke several times over the phone prior to scheduling my arrival in Cannon Beach to align our schedules, gathering a list of properties to view and took the time to understand the type of home I envisioned me and my family. From the moment we signed the offer, Alaina was there from beginning to end and was very honest and upfront during the negotiations as we entered into escrow. Alaina was very professional, an excellent communicator, and very knowledgeable of the area. Even now when I reach out to Alaina to check-in I continue to be impressed by her professionalism and friendliness. I not only feel she is my to-go realtor but also someone I can call upon for recommendations (handyman, contractors, plumbers, etc.) Thank you so much for helping me find the perfect beach house on the coast!!!Less
Franklin It was really my pleasure to help you find the perfect. It was the first time I had worked with someone that wanted to buy a home here before they had ever stepped foot in Cannon Beach. (: But you knew where you wanted to be , just not exactly what. I am so happy to have been able to help the "what'.. Let me know when you are ready to add another home to the mix. Alaina
Alaina is always there for you when it comes to an honest answer in her assessment of real estate. Her knowledge of the North Coast, especially Cannon Beach, Arch Cape, and Manzanita is vast. She has consistently wowed her customers with her vast market knowledge of the area in which she lives in.
Mike Your kind words are so appreciated. I am always here to assist you, your family or friends anytime they need a Broker at the coast.
This is the second house I've listed with Alaina and the second sale she has closed for me. If I had a third house to sell, she would be my number one choice. I have benefited from her expertise and enjoyed her advice, which is always given in a respectful manner. She is knowledgeable about the More
Nancy , you are a joy to have as a client. I know it took us a while to get this house sold, but we did it. I am so happy for you. Now off to your next big adventure. Thank you for being a wonderful and loyal client. Alaina
She was able tom identifying very fast our needs and present us with appropriate opportunities. Alaina was extremely knowledgeable with the real estate value and trends. When needed it she provided accurate comparable. Alaina was bale to help complete the transaction without pain.
Mike it was my pleasure to help you find the perfect oceanfront home for you and your family. I am so glad that you are enjoying it. Thank you for taking the time to review me. I know that when you were looking for an agent , it was due to my reviews that you chose me as your agent for the coast. I will look forward to a glass of wine at the 'new' house soon. Alaina

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $475K in Cannon Beach, OR.
Out of all the agents we contacted online, Alaina replied promptly and efficiently. We came in from out of town and she dropped everything and made us the priority, driving us around for 3 days. She showed us recent sales, available properties, and gave us a very deep knowledge of the market and history. It is obvious she knows the market better than any other agent in town. There was never any pressure, no hard sell. She asked a lot of questions and got to know us. In fact she was very honest about places we saw that weren't going to be right for us. The communication continued by email and text for weeks afterwards. We then returned for a final few days and made a decision and she was fantastic every part of the way. I've worked with a lot of real estate agents in the past, and she doesn't feel like an agent- she feels like a real estate councilor and friend. Thanks to her we bought a fantastic home and cut through the clutter and emotions that can come with a purchase of this size. She made it easy. Alaina loves the coast community and wants what is right for her neighbors and the community. We'd highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Sold a Single Family home in 2016 for approximately $325K in Cannon Beach, OR.
Alaina was very up to date on local market values and was a great advisor on marketing, pricing and all other information related to getting our home sold for market value in a very timely manner. She has great connections on the west Oregon coast market via multiple sites online and other realtors and had showings from time listed to the sale. The home sold quickly within a short period of time. Alaina kept us up to date with reviews of the showings and all aspects of the pending sale as it was being processed. We could not be more pleased with her and her companies services and highly recommend her to others for their real estate needs.

I could not possibly give Alaina anything less than a 5-Star review. She is simply the best real estate agent on the coast.

Alaina is very professional but also fun to work with! Alaina helped my husband and I find a wonderful beach home 10 years ago and we knew she was the realtor for us when we were ready to sell and buy a new home last year. We felt like she listened to our wants and needs to help find us just the right home and no question was too stupid! Alaina made the whole experience of selling and buying as easy.

Without Alaina we would still be living in Phoenix, AZ instead of on the Oregon Coast. After our first contact with her in the summer of 2003 she kept us informed about what was happening in our target area-Manzanita Oregon. Being a small town, there wasn't a great deal of inventory. In 2004, she showed us more houses as well as a few lots. The lot we selected was not for sale, but Alaina put together a proposal that included both the lot and a home. That strategy worked, but another party outbid us. Alaina continued to search for another lot for several months, until the original lot looked like it might become available once more. She immediately called us, informing us of the possibility and how she thought we should make a proposal to a "twice burned" seller. In three days, we had secured a deal and were the owners of an ocean view lot. I would describe Alaina as knowledgeable, efficient, thoughtful, persistent and, when necessary, aggressive. I would also describe Alaina as a real estate agent that cares and who has become a friend. After the sale we had to work with the county to make our plans happen. It was after the closing, but Alaina put in a lot of time helping us through the process, to make sure we were successful in realizing our dreams.
Teresa Robinson Client, Buyer
Alaina was very easy to work with, and really helpful with the backs & forths of buying our house. She got us the information we needed when we needed it & kept track of what was happening during the whole process. When we needed to step back for a bit to consider our next steps she let that happen without being at all intrusive. We truly enjoyed working with her.

Alaina is who you want to trust when purchasing a home. I am the man who hates car salesmen, the man who does hours of research before any purchase over a couple hundred dollars and the man who regards trust and integrity as the main credentials when working with anyone. Alaina fits the bill for my ideal partner in the home buying world. She had me and my family in mind the whole time, which I feel is rare (as most agents are only worried about commission). She knows the area better than anyone and her tour of Cannon beach solidified my thoughts of “I could really see myself living here”! I would highly, highly recommend Alaina Giguiere.

My wife and I have wanted to move to the coast for about twenty years. We began our serious property search in 2009, and began working with Alaina because she was one of the very few agents (perhaps the only one) who covered both Cannon Beach and Manzanita. Throughout our search for that "just right" property, Alaina has patiently and skillfully guided us through several property investigations. Now, with her help, we've acquired that ideal parcel on which we'll build our new home. We would recommend her without reservation.

My wife Rose and I cannot recommend Alaina highly enough. Between the 2 of us, we have sold 12 houses and Alaina is the best realtor we have ever worked with. Our home was presented in a very professional way, online and otherwise, and she utilized the latest and most effective marketing tools to get our home sold. Rose and I always felt Alaina was working in our best interest and made our departure from Cannon Beach as easy as could be expected.
