Buying a home is an exciting milestone that can represent a step towards stability, investment, and creating a space that truly feels like your own. However, navigating the intricate process of home buying can often feel like a daunting task, filled with complex procedures, paperwork, and unfamiliar terms. Knowing where to begin, and how the process is going to unfold, can feel overwhelming.
Whether you’re a first-time homebuyer, looking to upgrade or downsize your current home, or you’re ready to invest – refreshing your understanding of the steps involved can make all the difference. The same is true in working with someone you trust to guide you through the process. A Realtor’s job is to provide you with the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions throughout each stage of the journey, and most importantly, to negotiate on your behalf to ensure you reach your goals and vision.
Below is a simplified view of the home buying process. It details what you can expect along the way to a smooth and enjoyable experience.

I bring a unique blend of skills and experience to real estate, with fifteen years spent focused on delivering exceptional client service and outcomes in the creative marketing industry. What sets me apart is my relentless attention to detail, reliability, dedication to service and ability to be quick to action. I will help you see the bigger picture while expertly navigating the intricacies of real estate transactions. I pride myself on being able to guide my clients through the home buying and selling experience with the information and knowledge they need to feel confident and informed, all the while forming a genuine connection that lasts far beyond the transaction.
I enjoy working with clients with a wide variety of goals. I have a particular affinity for first-time homebuyers, as well as those who deviate from conventional paths. I believe that creating a home environment that reflects one's identity and values is a powerful form of self-expression.
I've channeled my energy into building community and helping others find theirs. I'd love to help you find where you belong by guiding you through the buying/selling process and towards achieving your home ownership goals.
When I'm not focusing on real estate, I enjoy taking care of plants and animals, hot yoga, cooking and wine.
I work as a team, alongside Tracey Henkels, Principal Broker Licensed in OR.
