A Standard of Service: The Ladd Group’s 2025 Diamond Award Recognition

The Ladd Group is honored to reflect on a meaningful year in the Bend and Central Oregon real estate market. In 2025, our team received the prestigious Diamond Award, recognition that speaks to consistency, professionalism, and a standard of service we hold ourselves to daily.

Over the course of the year, we had the privilege of guiding 167 clients and families through important real estate transitions. While industry metrics often focus on volume, we view each transaction as something far more significant: a decision that shapes financial futures, family dynamics, and long-term goals.

Beyond the Numbers: 167 Transitions, 167 Responsibilities

Behind every home purchase or sale was a story.

• A first-time buyer stepping confidently into homeownership in Bend.
• A homeowner timing a sale strategically within the 2025 market.
• A relocation inspired by Central Oregon’s lifestyle and opportunity.
• An investor making thoughtful, data-driven decisions.

Each client relationship required preparation, discretion, and clear guidance. Real estate at this level is not transactional,  it is advisory.

What the Diamond Award Represents

The Diamond Award is not simply a recognition of production. It reflects sustained performance, ethical standards, and leadership within the Central Oregon real estate community.

The 2025 market required more than activity. It required insight. Pricing strategy needed to be precise. Negotiations demanded experience. Market interpretation had to be grounded in data rather than headlines.

Being recognized among the Best Realtors in Bend Oregon carries weight, not as a title, but as a responsibility. Our role is to protect our clients’ interests, provide clarity in complexity, and advocate with discipline.

As recipients of one of this year’s Central Oregon Real Estate Awards, we remain mindful that recognition is earned through trust, preparation, and consistent execution.

Looking Ahead to 2026

As we move into 2026, our focus remains unchanged.

We will continue to invest in market intelligence, refined strategy, and elevated client service. The Bend and Central Oregon markets will evolve and our commitment is to ensure our clients are positioned thoughtfully within that evolution.

Growth is meaningful when it strengthens the community it serves. That principle guides our work.

If you are considering a purchase, sale, or investment this year, we welcome the opportunity to provide clarity and strategic direction as you plan your next chapter.
