Putting Down Roots in SE

By Olivia Rush, December 24, 2021

Congratulations to my clients Saidullah, Solimah, and their three children on the purchase of their first home!

Saidullah and Solimah were introduced to me by my past clients, Yusuf and Misrah. They are all refugees from Myanmar and have worked tirelessly to save up to purchase homes for their families.

Saidullah, Solimah, and their three children needed a place with enough bedrooms, a backyard for the kids to play in, and somewhere close enough to public transit and their Mosque. We found it (and well below their max budget, too) on SE 142nd Ave.

We beat out 4 other offers with creative terms and a competitive price. Another win came when we were able to negotiate a full credit for roof and sewer repairs. The whole family is so excited to be moving in before the new year.

Cheers to Saidullah and Solimah, and their faithful advocates, Yusuf and Misrah, who were with them at every step of the way. Here’s to many more years of love and laughter in your new family home!

She/Her

As your trusted guide through the buying or selling process, you can expect me to customize my services to your specific goals and preferences, much like I did for my students during my ten years as an educator. My clients’ goals vary. A couple retiring to the Big City after 30 years on 22 acres. A woman purchasing her first home independently. A couple upsizing to support a growing family. Two friends pooling their resources to make their first investment possible. A couple navigating a divorce and the sale of their home. A refugee family with limited English setting down roots in this country. Deaf investors looking to maximize profit on their flip.  A couple selling the home of their daughter who has lost her battle to cancer. A family relocating from across the country and buying sight-unseen.  These situations all require unique, dynamic, and holistic approaches. Everyone has different needs, and it is my top priority to meet my clients where they are. For me, real estate is not transactional. It is deeply personal and inevitably life-changing. While each client requires a tailored strategy, my work ethic is unwavering. With me you can always expect organization, tenacity, responsiveness, dedication, and hustle. A gatherer of resources, a communicator of all options and possible outcomes. As your advocate, I will be brutally honest so you know what to expect. A skilled negotiator, I’ll consider every angle with your dreams and goals in mind. My clients often end up feeling like family. I am honored they trust me enough to return to me as their needs change and refer me to their friends, family, and communities. What are your real estate goals and dreams? Call or text me so we can meet to discuss your vision.   Curious about the home-buying process in Portland? Click here to sign up for one of my free The How To Buy A House Class™ classes!
