From One Agent to Another

Posted on by Sean Patrick O'Feery
I had the pleasure to help a Seattle Real Estate Agent buy a home here in Portland.   She walked into my open house and found the townhome I had listed was not quite right for her but it was SO close.  She called me a couple days later and  we took a look at one down the street that was a better fit for her family.
It was great to work with someone that has a feel for the pace of a purchase and although she was a client it was more like working with a colleague. Bethany was great and the sale was a sweetheart deal. Thrilled to be welcoming another stellar human being and new Real Estate Agent to Portland!
If you are looking for your home here in Portland, I’m always happy to be of service.

Manzanita Beach 25 Years and Counting

Posted on by Living Room Realty

Congratulaltions to my lovely clients Bob and Sue on the quick sale of their beach house. While they had many years of good times with friends and family here a few steps to the beach, they always thought about living on the ridge to get that ocean and mountain view. I have to say I am going to miss going out with them sleuthing for new homes as they popped up on the market. Always good humored, socially active and they can dance! They are great people who bring joy, kindness and love to Manzanita friends and neighbors. Now time to love where you live in that specular new home and another 25 years.  Peace Out!

Buying or Selling a Home: It Can Be Hard Sometimes

Posted on by Sean Patrick O'Feery
Buying or selling a home can be hard sometimes.
When the stakes are high…
When emotions are involved…
When it is something as essential as your home…
When there aren’t a lot of homes on the market…
When the demand for quality homes is high…
Make sure you are working with an Agent that will honor this process and work with you to through the challenges.
Carly, my business partner, and I really do care for our clients and will take care of you from before the start to well after the finish line. Feel free to give me a call. I start and end with a commitment to service!

Backyard “shack” for a teenager

Posted on by Living Room Realty

I work with many clients that are squished at the seams.  Our house conversations often question whether they should add on to their home, remodel their basement, or sell and go bigger.  That conversation is the same one I have with myself.  Like my clients, my own 1905 bungalow that has served my two children and I very well over the years, but we too, are over-flowing our spaces.  My son and daughter share a room, we have one full bath, our living room is our shared space where we all hang; we have gotten used to living on top of one another.  Our 900 sqft of living space has made for one tight-knit-family.  We see our “tightness” as a really perk and wouldn’t give that up for the world. But come late summer/fall we will began our house hunt to make space for a fourth to entry our tribe.

But until that time comes, meet the “shack”.  This tiny-wee-bitty shed that we built for summer slumber parties years ago, has become my teen daughter’s summer room.  Its fits only a double mattress (It was an expensive one we’d bought though; click here to know the details). When she gets sick of her brother and I, or needs her own space, she can sleep outside or chill with her girlfriends.  It allows her to ‘be’ more independent.  It allows her to spread her wings, which are growing everyday and are quite beautiful.

The only pitfall so far, have been the raccoons that run over its roof at night and play with the extension cord but sound like giant beasts that want to EAT you.

Working on housing solutions for family, friends and Portland.  Give us a ring for some creative thinking.

 

Hello Hillsboro!

Posted on by Living Room Realty
This home has been loved. My client bought this adorable mid-century modern ranch as their first home and absolutely loved living here. They planted fruit trees in the back yard, hosted family and friends, and spent years exploring the neighborhood and making lifelong friends. In time, as their family grew, this became their first investment property and now this investment they made many years ago is the key to buying their dream home! They lovingly updated the house with the hope the next person would love it too and it seems we’ve achieved a property love match! The new owner is a first time buyer who grew up in the area and is very excited to be close to their family.
