“China helped in the process of purchasing a lovely new lot and was wonderful to work with. She was thorough and knowledgeable the entire process with a great personality I top it off. I would recommend her to anyone in the market looking for a great realtor.”
bsawyerccc, Grants Pass · Zillow review for China Rose
“This is my 3rd home purchase in 5 years. And although I have nothing negative to say about previous agents, Shauna has gone above and beyond and has made others pale in comparison. She has treated us like family and even though we ran into snags at no fault to us she has charged forward in a professional manner. Everything was prompt and on time and because of her we now have our dream home!”
Steven Barnes, Grants Pass

What our clients say
“China made our inter-state move very streamlined and quite easy! My fiance and I live in Washington state, and he is also a disabled veteran. China met with contractors, home inspectors, all while negotiating and communicating on our behalf! China was wonderful and kept open lines of communication during the entire process. She really was/is very professional and always kept our best interests in mind. To top it off – we didn’t have to travel to Oregon to sign at closing – she arranged a notory to come to our home! Definately gets our recommendation!!”
Zillow review for China Rose · bought in Cave Junction, 2019
“Shauna and her team did an amazing job. We jumped over hurdles like a track star. Even after closing, she is still making this new chapter in our lives an easy transition. From trying to find keys and codes to contacting the other party for answers my husband has and will have. She does her job with a beautiful smile working hard to find that perfect house for everyone. I would recommend her to anyone looking for their perfect home. The process was painless. Thank you very much. I love your energy.”
