Yascha Noonberg, Principal Broker – Living Room Realty

Consistently featured as one of the Top 50 Brokers in Portland.

“Yascha is absolutely an asset, not only to his clients, but his industry as a whole as an example of how REALTORS® should strive to conduct business.” —Past client

I was fortunate enough to move to Portland in the 90s after growing up in Maryland and then attending college in Texas.

My professional life started with owning and operating a music school and recording studio in SE Portland.

Eventually I was drawn to real estate both as an investor and subsequently as a consultant to homebuyers and sellers as well as fellow real estate investors.

My family and I have lived on both sides of the river, and we spend a lot of our down time at the coast in Manzanita.

My real estate business and family keep me very busy but whenever possible I get out on the courts to compete in tennis leagues and tournaments, and I recently started playing Pickleball. I also mix in the occasional gig or young audiences performance with local jazz group Trashcan Joe.

PORTLAND LIFE: SPRING BREAK IS HERE!

Posted on March 25, 2024 by Aryne + Dulcinea

SPRING BREAK!

Spring is here and whether you are laying low or taking a small road trip or grand vacation, it’s a great time to enjoy the great outdoors. For the last few months, we’ve been cozying up indoors with our loved ones, and now it feels good to get out! Take a look below at some fun ways to take a break this spring.

PORTLAND’S NATURAL AMENITIES

Portland proper and Oregon are teeming with amazing sites and sounds, thrills and natural beauty, great food, and fantastic entertainment. Oregon wine country, the mighty Pacific Ocean and majestic Columbia River Gorge, Mt Hood, and the high desert landscapes of central Oregon are just a handful of the wonders our state has to offer! No matter what outdoor adventure you have in mind, Portland is just a hop, skip, and jump away from all of these great destinations!

TOP REASONS WHY SELLERS SELL

No matter the real estate market, people’s lives don’t stop them from needing to sell their homes. Here are the top six reasons people sell their home in any type of market. (We will start with the less happy reasons)

DEATH: A homeowner has passed and the family needs to sell the property.

DEBT: A homeowner can recover from debt by selling the property and using the profits to pay the debt.

DIVORCE: An uncoupling has taken place and the property no longer works for their new chapter

DIAMONDS: A couple has decided to marry or merge and selling their current property to buy a house together is how they proceed.

DIAPERS: A new family member has arrived and the current house just doesn’t support the homeowners anymore.

DISCOVERY: A homeowner has taken a job elsewhere or wants to move to a new location.

Portland Home Prices Soar in May, Defying Steep Rise in Mortgage Rates

Posted on June 16, 2022 by Living Room Realty

“We’re in a very strong seller’s market,” said Aryne Blumklotz, principal real estate broker at Living Room Realty. “There’s not much to buy.”

Blumklotz recently represented a seller in the Alberta neighborhood who got nine offers on a house that listed for $675,000. She held three open houses, all of them packed. The house hasn’t closed yet, so she can’t reveal the winning bid. A few weeks before, she sold a house in Alameda for $995,000 that had listed for $869,000.

Even so, there are signs that the market might soften. Blumklotz says she’s getting more emails from other agents about homeowners who are lowering prices. That’s most likely because of the rise in mortgage rates, she says.

“Most buyers are shopping for a monthly payment,” Blumklotz says. When rates were low, those people could stretch to borrow more money and still hit their target payment. “Now, those people can’t stretch,” Blumklotz says.
