When your “New Normal” is…. freaking awesome!!

By Tracey Henkels, August 13, 2021

Congratulations to Jake and Nicole!

I think you can all relate when I say- what a year!!  The pandemic really threw a wrench in things (to put it very mildly) and we are seeing a lot of folks making changes in the aftermath. My clients, Jake and Nicole, exemplify this and are making a big change! They own a darling home in Overlook and loved it when they bought it. Working from home, through the pandemic, they realized that owning an older home (no matter how cute it is) can be a lot of work! They were feeling overwhelmed with the tasks required of them and realized that yard work was not for them. They felt inspired to look for a low-maintenance place with modern conveniences and a modern design. What they found was perfect! A lovely newer townhome in Hillsdale with clear grain cedar exterior, floor to ceiling triple glazed European windows & doors, white oak hardwood floors, wool carpet, quartz countertops, marble master bathroom, stainless steel appliances. I’m so happy for them! Congratulations!

Principal Broker | Earth Advantage | OR

She/Her

Tracey Henkels attributes her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun on her family's apple orchard in Iowa. Gratefully, that Midwestern mentality has served her well over the years as Tracey continues to deliver excellent customer service, superior technical skill, and a wide array of industry knowledge on behalf of her clients. While Tracey wouldn't trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was Architecture. After receiving her degree at Iowa State University, Tracey worked in the architecture world for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path. In 2004, Tracey jumped heart-first into the world of helping her people buy and sell houses. She's never looked back. When you meet Tracey, one of the first things you notice is her positive energy, and zest for life. One of her favorite things about being a broker is the ability to help people make powerful transitions. Tracey's natural patience, unwavering professionalism, and optimistic attitude make her both a compassionate broker and tough negotiator. Tracey is committed to serving others, making a difference in her community, and giving back. When she isn't working hard to best serve her clients, you might find her tending to her garden, growing fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, cross country skiing, or planning her next exciting adventure.   Tracey works as a team, alongside Kelsey Burkett, Broker Licensed in OR.
