We had an amazing experience working with Rick and Abbie at Sams Realty. They were professional, responsive, and truly went above and beyond to help us sell our home in Waldport, OR. Their knowledge of the market and attention to detail made the whole process smooth and stress-free. We couldn’t have asked for a better realtor—highly recommend!

Rick and Abbie are kind, smart, hard-working, friendly and capable realtors who helped me purchase a home in Lincoln City and to sell a parcel of land in Neskowin. I trust that when they offer advice about when to buy or sell and when to wait, they are truly speaking from the client's perspective. They also went above and beyond in offering support, such as transporting furniture when I wasn't able to do so myself in time.
- Melanie R.
Rick was great, really helpful, and responsive. Helped navigate the property purchase, and made it as easy as possible during my busy time of the year.

Rick and Abbie make an outstanding duo! They exhibit professionalism, expertise, and consistently exceeded our expectations. They were always available whenever we reached out. After months with another agent, we switched to Sam’s Realty. Within days of listing with them, we received an offer, and our home sold in just weeks. The entire process was seamless. I would highly recommend this team and would gladly work with them again.
- Katie M.
Rick and Abbie are a joy to work with! They helped me find a magical that met all my checkboxes. They are fun people and very professional, I recommend them completely! They really listen to your needs to find a property that will fit you.
- Alexis B.
We had an excellent experience with Abbie and Rick, and we would absolutely recommend them to any homebuyers on the Oregon coast.
- Kristen O.
I used Rick and Abbie when I sold my home, and also when purchasing my new home. They addressed any questions and concerns quickly and honestly, and went above and beyond what is expected from a realtor. It is evident that they truly care about their clients. They are knowledgeable about the area and were able to give me good and reasonable recommendations of services that I needed during the buying/selling process. They are both personable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Sam and Abbie if you are looking to buy or sell a home.
- Lauri H.
Great service. Helped us close on a beautiful coast house quickly and easily.

Sams Realty went above and beyond to help us locate and purchase our dream home on the Oregon Coast. Rick and Abbie Sams not only helped us see every home in the area that checked off all of our boxes, but they kept in constant contact between meetings. After our home purchase, they answered questions about locating restaurants, internet providers and other local needs... helping us feel instantly at home in our new neighborhood. Bottom line, they spend extra time with their clients and make them feel like they are the only clients that they have. We exchanged Christmas cards/letters and look forward to our newfound freindship with Rick and Abby. You won't find better realtors/friends to work with anywhere.
- Cathy & Mike T.
Awesome experience working with Rick and Abbie

I would highly recommend Sam’s Realty for anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
My husband and I had lots of questions about buying a house on the Oregon coast. Rick and Abbie helped us understand what to look for and how to put in competitive offers. We were navigating buying a second home and living two hours away. Rick and Abbie were our on the ground guide for inspections, negotiations, contractors and contracts along the way.
Sam’s Realty was a strong advocate and never pressured us into seeing homes that were out of our budget, or making offers on houses that weren’t right for us. Even after the purchase of our new house, Rick and Abbie offered to check on our new place if needed.
I would absolutely work with Sam’s Realty to sell our new house whenever that may be, and would encourage anyone to use them to buy or sell a property.
- Camille O.
Rick and Abbie were very helpful throughout the entire process of purchasing our forever home at the coast.
Living in Portland and looking for a house two hours away was a challenge, but Rick was flexible about meeting us when we could make it out. Communication was quick and efficient. When a text would work, we got a text. When a phone call was better, Rick called. Rick definitely went the extra mile for us: providing a list of local businesses and professionals for work we wanted to have done, meeting some of them for measuring to give estimates, helping us navigate some last-minute snags, and even lending us a lock-box for the workers to access our new home.
Abbie was also a great resource, explaining the ins and outs and process and procedures for purchasing our home. This was my first time buying a house, so I had a LOT of questions, and she was very patient.
I can highly recommend working with Rick and Abbie of Sams Realty if you are looking for a home along the Oregon Coast!
- Kate E.
Rick and Abbie were wonderful. They were thorough, reliable and knowledgable. Rick moved quickly every step of the way to ensure we had a great outcome. We were not able to see the property in person and he recorded a 30 minute walk-through video of the house and property, during which he provided his helpful insights. He has 30+ years of contracting experience behind him, which was reassuring to us as he evaluated the renovation potential of the older home. I have nothing but positive things to say about Rick and Abbie. If you decide to work with them, you (and your real estate goals) will be in excellent hands!
- Amy T.
No high-pressure sales approach here! Rick and Abby were gracious and patient, in addition to being knowledgeable and professional. They volunteered insights into the features of particular homes I toured, as well as the area in general. You won't regret contacting them if you are looking to buy or sell a home.
- Mary S.
Rick and Abbie were our agents in our first time home purchase. A very stressful time for my wife and I. Rick was a wonderful pleasure to work with. He took the time to listen to our needs and fears and went above and beyond the call of duty. He made the experience easy and fun. We very much enjoyed our time with them and consider them friends after the the experience. I have relayed their information to friends and family. If we are in the need to buy again we will not hesitate to give the Sams Team our business. I trust them whole heartedly. Thank you Rick and Abbie.
- Erik A.
Working with Rick and Abbie Sams has been a pure joy. They are extremely knowledgeable, well versed, and practice their profession with great integrity. Whenever we’ve had questions they have always clearly and patiently answered them. From start to finish you will be in excellent hands.
- Sandra W.
We had excellent care from Rick and Abbie when purchasing our home in Oregon from start to finish. Very positive and encouraging us at every step of the process, reassuring us that it will all work out in our search for our home.
- Tom + Debbie S.
We worked with Rick and Abbie on the purchase of a condo. They are extremely knowledgeable about the Oregon coast and provided plenty of options for us. They are very easy and pleasant to work with and we really enjoyed our experience. I highly recommend them for all your Real Estate needs!!
- Tom + Lisa L.
The Sams Realty team helped me find and purchase the perfect home in a fantastic neighborhood. Their knowledge and experience with construction quality, repair costs and long-term investment really shows when they explained pros and cons of the places we viewed. I felt that they sincerely cared to find a home that suited me and wanting to protect me from hidden costs or future problems. My list of criteria was not completely accurate when I started house shopping. They asked a lot of good questions to figure out what was really important. There were many factors I did not consider until they brought it to my attention. I will always be thankful for their attention and consideration.
- Beneb S.
I worked with the Sams team for a few years here in Central Oregon during the height of a frustrating housing market. I was back and forth on what I wanted to invest in and they were so generous with their time and knowledge. When a house became available that they knew fit all of my criteria, they both jumped into action immediately and made the sale happen so quickly and efficiently. I had the best experience buying my first house. They walked me through all the steps with patience and grace and I was moving in within just a couple months. I felt so safe and secure in making this deal and have never been happier. It is everything I could have ever wanted. In my opinion, these are the two people that you want on your side when looking for your next real estate investment.
- Rachel K.
Rick and Abbie are very personal and professional. We appreciated how they got to know our needs after a few home showings. They listened and when our needs changed due to the housing market, they shifted gears with us. Rick even toured us around to help us familiarize ourselves with the area. He even made himself available virtually when we were out of town. Abbie kept us up on all the paperwork and researched our questions, quickly providing intelligence answers. They demonstrated they are great Realtors and wonderful, fun people. I highly recommend them as your next Realtors.

How do you spell trust, reliability, and service in the real estate industry? Rick and Abbie Sams. We are so blessed to have had Rick and Abbie sell our house for us, all the while being hunkered down out of state in the middle of a pandemic. From the first time we met them, we felt we were in good hands - and boy were we. This dynamic duo facilitated the open houses, tours of prospective buyers, and then sealed the deal with the buyers. And, that's not it. They also coordinated with the various contractors to complete a few house inspection repairs because we could not return in person to complete those tasks. The whole engagement was seamless. The updates were detailed. And, we were guided through the process flawlessly. It was an outstanding experience with this dynamic duo. Look to no one else: Rick and Abbie.
- Jim + Vicky D.
We had a great experience selling our home with Team Sams. Professional, hard working and helped us get the top dollar we wanted for our home. Would recommend to anyone needed a realtor.
- Whit Family
Abbie or Rick on their own would be a wonderful pick for a realtor, but getting them as a team almost seems unfair, in the best way! We were lucky enough to have the care, detail and attention of two of the most kind and easy to work with people we have ever encountered. Thank you Team Sams for making the purchase our first home such an enjoyable experience and walking us through every detail. You went above and beyond for us with your kindness and we wish you many more fantastic client experiences!
- Justin + Sienna P.
Rick and Abbie sold our house for a great price and negotiated very effectively on the conditions of our new home purchase. This was done all in a timely manner during a GLOBAL PANDEMIC. I don't think we need to say much else, highly recommend!
- Aaron + Jackie S.
Rick and Abbie are by far the best team we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! They both took the time to sit with us and really listen to our wants and needs. They made sure to help us slow down when anxiety got the best of us. They were so genuine in every aspect of both the selling AND buying process. They both made us feel like family and supported every step of our journey. Both of them are on it! They kept us in the loop every step of the way and made sure that we took time to breathe and enjoy the journey, which can be hard when purchasing a new home. They helped us understand the real estate world and made sure we never felt pressured in our decisions. Both of them bring their own unique backgrounds which is SUPER helpful and every very interaction was very pleasant and informative. We truly appreciate the two of them, and know their future clients will too! We recommend Rick & Abbie to everyone we know and even though we love our new home if we ever go to sell, Team Sams will be our first call.
-Josh + Tina E.
We cannot sufficiently express the depth of our gratitude to Rick and Abby for getting us into our new home. From the very start they were attentive and truly heard what we were looking for and set about to find places that really resonated, even in a market with rapidly disappearing inventory. They were always available and communicative, taking extra time and effort for due diligence and responding to our questions whenever they arose. When we found The House, they worked tirelessly to make sure that our needs and interests were being met, going above and beyond when a potential issue showed up during inspection. Doing research on the issue and all possible solutions, calling vendors, calling the city, following up with the listing agent, and making sure the job was done right and looking out for us. Their experienced, level-headed advice and clarity got us through a rollercoaster of a search and an abnormally difficult purchase process. When the listing agent was vague and even at times fully unresponsive, Rick and Abby unwaveringly kept the process moving and kept us fully in the loop the entire time. And on top of it all, they are simply and truly the kindest and most down to earth people you could ever hope to work with. We recommend them a thousand times over. This is the team you want to have in your corner.
- Lauren H.
Rick and Abbie were a great team to work with. Selling your first house can be pretty daunting, but they definitely helped lighten the load. With Rick’s background in construction and Abbie’s expertise with paperwork and real estate intricacies, I always felt that they could answer any questions or solve any problem. On top of their quality work, Rick and Abbie are great people. Character can never be overlooked in the business world, and they’re just a nice, personable couple. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!
- Jake + Katie W.
Rick and Abbie handled the purchase of our new home perfectly! We had very specific parameters in what we were looking for and were out of state for most of the process, yet we had complete trust in Rick's advice because of his expertise as a builder and his thoroughness. The entire process was really enjoyable due to Rick's no pressure style, quick responsiveness and willingness to go the extra mile. Rick and Abbie are an impressive team and work seamlessly together. Without Rick and Abbie's diligence, we would not have been able to buy the home that we really wanted. Thank you Team Sams!
- Mike + Anne B.
I could not have been happier with Team Sams as my real estate partners! I feel so lucky to have found them. They really listened to me and always had my best interest as their first priority. They went above and beyond in everything that they did. They found me the perfect new house and then sold my current house at full asking price in one week. They were efficient, thorough and smart in everything they did. And on top of their professionalism they were just a joy to work with which made the whole process actually fun. I highly recommend working with them!
- Kristin S.
Prior to working with Rick and Abbie, we had always sold our homes by owner because we felt that realtors added very little value to the selling process. That was not the case with Rick and Abbie. Rick’s previous construction experience allowed him to not just list and show our house, but really sell it. He noticed all the small details that made our home unique and those aspects were explicitly highlighted in the extensive marketing products including pictures, advertisements, video, and multiple open houses. Combined with Abbie’s communication skills, attention to detail, and the fact they they are both such nice, thoughtful people made our experience working with them a delight. We highly recommend them.
- Debbie H.
After searching for my first home I met Rick and Abbie and literally found my brand new Wood Hill home the 2nd house we went to look at and bought lot 9 and couldn’t be happier! If you are looking to live in Central Oregon give these two a shot! Amazing brand new home and could not be happier Thank you both!! Love my first home
- Alex M.
Rick Sams helped my son and his fiance find an affordable starter home in a nice neighborhood, in January of this year. I went along during a lot of the house hunting and was impressed with Rick's diligence in finding a home for them. I felt particularly confident in Rick's advice because of his past experience as a contractor and his expertise in construction. Long story short, two months later I had Rick and Team Sams sell my house and find a new home for me! I moved in three weeks ago. I highly recommend Team Sams--Rick made my home search enjoyable, he went out of his way to find just the right property for me, and his wife Abbie made all the detailed paperwork and contracts a breeze. Thank you Team Sams!
- Kathy H.
Love the house they found for me and my family. Couldn't be any happier.
- Jose R.
Team Sams found us the exact property we were in the market for and made the purchase go quickly and hassle free. Thanks again, Team Sams!

Thank you, so much for all of your time and energy. We enjoyed the experience and love our home!

Rick + Abbie were great to work with. Our escrow was contingent on an out of state sale. Rick convinced seller to work with me —and we all closed escrow on time! Thanks to Rick & Abbie!
