Has anyone else experienced the “One and Done” when buying a home lately?! One and Done means you saw one property, made an offer, had the offer accepted and closed on the property in a timely manner. In this case, all of that happened in a matter of 2.5 weeks – AND this was a financed sale!
Sandra & Jim have lived in a darling bungalow in North Portland for the last 18 years. Recently they decided they were done with yard maintenance & the general upkeep that comes with owning an older home. So we set out to find them a condo, outside of Portland.
Within minutes of walking in the home, Sandra knew she wanted it to be theirs. With updates throughout, the home feels almost brand new and has the perfect amount of space for the two of them & their cat, Denver. There are two small patios for them to enjoy just a few potted plants – a far cry from the amazing yard they had in North Portland. And they are thrilled!
Congrats Jim & Sandra on this next chapter!!!

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.
