The Dog House

By Natalie Tracy, December 29, 2023

So many of my clients buy The Dog House. And by that I mean a house for their dog! 😅

The top three things that get requested when I meet with new home buyers:
1. Plenty of light – We live in the gray Pacific Northwest, after all.
2. Not a fixer – With the exception of investors, most home buyers need something fairly move-in ready, maybe with some small projects in mind.
3. A good yard/enough space for their dog!

I’m not kidding, it’s a thing in our very dog-friendly city. And as a fellow dog-lover and mom to a wonderful pup, I get it. They deserve all the love and all the yard and all the space. So, here’s to The Dog House! If your dog is motivating your house search, just know you’re in very good company!

She/Her

I purchased my first Portland fixer 17 years ago, and was immediately hooked on Portland homes and neighborhoods. I bring that passion to helping my clients buy and sell their own perfectly Portland homes! I pride myself on meeting every client exactly where you are - whether you’re a first time buyer, a seller looking for more room, or anywhere in between, I’m here to help. I listen to your needs, and take the time and patience to create a stress-free process for you. I’m licensed in Oregon and Washington, so if you’re on the fence, I can help you in Portland and Vancouver. I’m also fluent in American Sign Language, and have been involved with the local Deaf community for more than 15 years. I ensure all of my clients feel informed and involved throughout the entire process, and I genuinely love what I get to do everyday. Drop me a text or give me a call - I’d love to buy you coffee/tea and chat about how I can help you!
