Happy Campers in Hillsboro!

By Tracey Henkels, April 30, 2018

They just moved to Portland from the Hawaii within the past couple of years to retire. Aloha! They both were dedicated educators and enjoy being out in nature. They also love, love, love going to the Oregon beaches. I was lucky enough to meet them at an open house and we just instantly had a connection. These two adore Portland and look forward to many happy years together in their Hillsboro home. Their home is near lots of amenities, restaurants, breweries, and New Seasons! It is also a one level home which is perfect for retirement. The Hillsboro market is very competitive right now! We had to write several offers on homes before we finally won on this home on NE Harrow. Congratulations Shira and Thom!

She/Her

Tracey Henkels attributesĀ her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun on her family's apple orchard in Iowa. Gratefully, that Midwestern mentality has served her well over the years as Tracey continues to deliver excellent customer service, superior technical skill, and a wide array of industry knowledge on behalf of her clients. While Tracey wouldn't trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was Architecture. After receivingĀ her degree at Iowa State University, Tracey worked in the architecture world for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path. In 2004, Tracey jumped heart-first into the world of helping her people buy and sell houses. She's never looked back. When you meet Tracey, one of the first things you notice is her positive energy, and zest for life. One of her favorite things about being a broker is the ability to help people make powerful transitions. Tracey's natural patience, unwavering professionalism, and optimistic attitude make her both a compassionate broker and tough negotiator. Tracey is committed to serving others, making a difference in her community, and giving back. When she isn't working hard to best serve her clients, you might find her tending to her garden, growing fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, cross country skiing, or planning her next exciting adventure.   Tracey works as a team, alongside Kelsey Burkett, Broker Licensed in OR.
