Future Portlander, Comin’ in Hot

By Ella Gray, August 3, 2020

July 6th, 2020: “Hey there, Ella – I hope you’re doing well! I copied my friend Tai on this message, as I wanted to introduce the two of you– Tai is looking to make the move from Seattle to PDX and buy his first home! Obviously I want to make sure he’s working with the best in the biz, so I thought I had probably ought to connect you. :)”

This is how it’s done! A previous awesome client of mine (thank you, Liz!) set up this intro less than a month ago with the email title “Future Portlander, Comin’ in Hot”, and sure enough here we are exactly four weeks later on August 3rd, CLOSING DAY. In the span of 4 short weeks Tai and I were introduced, toured 5 homes, saw this cutie bungalow for a second showing, competed and won in a multiple offer situation with an accepted offer under market value in a hot neighborhood (ask me how!), inspected, and closed in 3 weeks.

CONGRATULATIONS on your first home, Tai! I’m excited to welcome you to Portland and wish you many happy years in your new home!

Hi! I'm Ella Gray, a seasoned real estate agent with roots as diverse as my experience:
  • Born in Nashville, TN, and raised in the suburbs of Atlanta & Athens, GA (Go Dawgs!)
  • I spent my 20s in Los Angeles building a career in Advertising/Producing
  • My early-mid 30s were spent navigating the energy of New York City and working for worldwide acclaimed ad agencies
  • Since 2016, I've been happily rooted in Portland, Oregon, bringing my love of city life and community to every transaction.
  • With a career in real estate since 2017, I combine local insight with a wealth of experience, helping my clients sell and find their perfect home in Portland's unique market
When I’m not touring houses or prepping listings, you'll find me:
  • chasing kiddos around a soccer field
  • volunteering at my local elementary school
  • learning/playing piano (modeling for the kids!)
  • socializing, attending, and hosting occasions of all kinds
Most of my business comes from repeat and referrals - if you're finding me "in the wild", please call, text, and/or email and see if we're a fit to work together! In gratitude,
Ella
