I must say C&R is definitely an example of how a good real estate service is run. I have had experiences with a couple of other property management companies and none can compare

 Diana, Former Resident

My experience with C&R has always been on the highest level of professionalism. Their integrity and responsiveness make an attorney's job a lot easier in a real estate transaction.

They really treat the residents with respect and make them feel like their apartment is their home. I can't wait to come home and looking forward to renting again from C&R.

C&R has managed my apartment buildings in Portland for over 25 years. I find them personable, professional, and responsive. I have always had fabulous apartment managers who are smart and on their toes and who can handle anything that comes up. C&R is worth every penny and I highly recommend them.
