Celebrating in Collin’s View!

By Robin Hakeman, August 19, 2021

Congratulations to these amazing buyers who are now celebrating in their new Collin’s View home! Wayne & Sumi have lived in this neighborhood for the last 18 years. When it came time to buy a home they had some serious criteria. They even created a spreadsheet with a rating system for each home we toured! The top item on their list was a home IN the Collin’s View neighborhood. Over the years, Wayne & Sumi have developed life long friendships with neighbors, favorite stomping grounds & a love for the central location of this neighborhood.

The house sits perched high off the road and offers tree top views out the large picture window. It has been fully remodeled with new floors, updated kitchen & bathrooms, light fixtures, fresh paint throughout + a brand new roof.

It was a true joy to guide them through the process of buying a home & I am thrilled for their next chapter in Collin’s View!

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE ♥
One of the things I love most about my work in real estate is that it never feels like "work" to me. I love it. I love guiding my clients through the process & celebrating all of the wins along the way. Are you a first time buyer who needs the 101 on all things real estate? We'll sit down and go through it all. Or are you a seasoned-pro looking for top notch service & strategy? We will work closely to put together a plan that ensures your home stands out above the competition. I am passionate about understanding the needs of each client and will be your advocate every step of the way. I truly value the relationship that we will create and my goal is to make this a fun & successful experience for everyone.  Why real estate? My background as a Merchandise Manager for top retail brands prepared me well. I am that rare combination of business smarts meets creativity and this works well for real estate. I have the analytical background necessary to help both buyers and sellers with numbers and negotiation, as well as the creative vision to help clients prepare their homes for sale. As a native Oregonian, I have a deep understanding of all things Portland & beyond. I spent my childhood living in Tigard and when I was old enough, I realized a dream of living on NW 23rd Ave. The first home I owned was in NE Portland and now I live back in the burbs! When I'm not at the office or out with clients you can find me playing tennis, taking a barre3 class, enjoying family time, volunteering at a school and enjoying local theater arts. My super power is open & honest communication - and it works! Let's chat.   Specialties Include:
