High Fives and Positive Vibes

By Constance Rigney, April 16, 2018

Though there is something to love about everyone I get to work with, sometimes there is a whole lot to love!  This was one of those times; Lauren and Jeremiah were those clients.  Even when things weren’t looking their brightest, cool heads and warm hearts prevailed, and we were able to have a great time.

Lauren and Jeremiah’s  primary home is a lovely wooded wonderland in Washington state.  In Portland they were on the hunt for a city home.  Something with great walkability, neighborhood charm, and perhaps even some rental potential. Living out of town and shopping for a house in Portland can feel like a daunting task; especially in the fast-moving spring market. But, Lauren and Jeremiah, (tenacious and ever optimistic) didn’t give up after the first two homes they chose didn’t work out. They headed in to town one more time, with open hearts and positives vibes, and found a quintessential hundred year old, North Portland home to love. A quick walk to all that Mississippi Avenue has to offer, this home was in just the location they were hoping for.
There were a few quirks that needed to be worked out. Thanks to a great listing agent on the other side, some well-versed experts, and Lauren and Jeremiah’s amazing attitudes, everyone was able to come together; with high-fives all around.

She/Her

What I love about the field of real estate is that essentially, it’s about dreams and possibilities. It’s about finding a space that can support the life you are envisioning and crafting.

Whether purchasing your first home, dialing in your next investment property, or selling your home, my goal as your agent is to be your ally and advocate, to work diligently and creatively to help you through the process. What distinguishes me from other REALTORS®? My style in both real estate, and the rest of life, is down to earth and humorous; my spirit warm and enthusiastic. Being flexible, thorough, ethical, and a topnotch communicator are the cornerstones of my business. I am a dedicated worker and won’t stop until I get the job done! I grew up on the East Coast, but my sense of adventure brought me to Oregon, where I found a richness of community, and a great love for the wondrous natural environment of the Northwest.  I spent ten years in this city as a practitioner of Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, all the while learning about Portland’s neighborhoods, and hidden gems, through the stories of the fascinating people that call this lovely city home. Joyfully part of a dream team, I’m currently partnered with Matt Guy, wonderful human and long time real estate whiz. We work expeditiously to successfully help our clients turn their vision into reality. In my free time you might find me living the VW Van life with my dreamy husband, Scott, and firecracker daughter Roslyn; soaking up the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, supporting local non-profits, or celebrating Portland’s local music scene.
