I love Portland. This city, and its surrounding areas, in my opinion, are the perfect place to call home. We have the amazing ability to put our toes in the ocean, snowboard, and visit some of the world’s best breweries all in one day. Our food scene is extremely diverse and prolific. Want to see a show? Comedy, music, theater, etc all have growing, well-supported scenes here. I love selling homes in Portland and more importantly educating my clients and community on how amazing this city is and how you can own a piece of this beautiful state and call it home.

Lily Ray's Testimonials

Lily is a top-notch agent. Responsive, competent and personable. I recommend her wholeheartedly. She communicated very effectively with the seller for repairs and items we wanted left in the home. A very positive experience.

Janet

Lily is a superstar real estate Agent!. We were doing a 1031 exchange which because of the time crunch we were stressed about the process. We contacted Lily and she got us right on track by promptly connecting us with a great 1031 exchange facilitator and an out-of-state agent to sell our investment property. She then was able to seamlessly help us find two new homes to buy. She made the whole process feel so easy and got us under contract and closed on our new investments quickly. Thank you Lily!!

Matt

We’re so grateful to Lily for her help in the purchase of our first home. Her knowledge and expertise were key to navigating a competitive market, and her warmth and compassion put at ease throughout our search. Extremely responsive and endlessly patient with our many questions, Lily was a true partner and advocate from Day 1. We highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for agent!
