Some of our specialties.
First-time home buyers
Buying a home for the first time is a big deal for most people and we want to make sure it’s a positive experience. We’ll walk you through the steps at a pace that works for you and break down information in an easy-to-understand way. We will adapt our service to fit your needs - it all begins with a buyer consultation!
Seller contract negotiations
Our team of Real Estate Brokers is skilled at negotiations from start to finish. Once the process has begun, we will start off by walking you through the inspection report and talking through any issues that come up (if applicable). From there, we’ll discuss a strategy and move through the entire negotiation process as efficiently as possible.
Relocation services
Relocating to Portland? We can make this process as seamless as possible for you! We have worked with clients who are just brand new to the city and clients who are relocating from other countries. We want to ensure you feel comfortable with your new investment and will communicate with you every step of the way.
Multi-unit condominiums
In addition to single-family properties, we have the expertise to work with those interested in buying and selling multi-family homes as well. We’d be happy to share more details about the types of projects we’ve worked on in the past and brainstorm with you to meet your goals.
Neighborhood insight
With years of experience in the Portland area and its surrounding neighborhoods, we know the Portland neighborhoods like the back of our hands. We can offer our expertise and help you figure out which area suits your preferences, lifestyle, and community needs the closest. We can even share our favorite local hangouts!
Luxury properties
Each type of home has a different selling point, something that makes it magical. A luxury home is one that is valued within the top 10% of properties on the local market. We have experience working in this unique property class and understand the special needs that might be associated with luxury properties.
