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 Farmer’s Markets in Full Summer Swing

Posted on June 27, 2022June 27, 2022 by Living Room Realty

Now that the sun is out and summer is in full swing in Portland, the farmer’s market scene has come out of its winter hibernation and bringing with it each week tons of new and exciting products and produce for market-goers to get their hands on. Local strawberries are in full swing, but other varieties of berries and stone fruits such as cherries and apricots are also starting to make an appearance. Rhubarb, asparagus, salad greens, cucumbers, snap peas, faves, carrots, beets, and so many early-season veggies will continue to be staples as we move through summer.

Below you will find a list of just a few of my favorite farmer’s markets in town throughout the summer season. Be sure to get there early and stay hydrated, because the hot ticket items will go fast as market die-hards know that the best kind of eating in this town is highly dependent on what’s seasonal and available locally. Lastly, be sure to support your local vendors in addition to the farms, by purchasing delicious products, tasty ready-made foods, and floral arrangements to keep your house looking bright and smelling great all summer long.

PSU Farmer’s Market – Saturdays from 8:30-2pm in the Park Blocks between SW College and Montgomery.

Hollywood Farmer’s Market- Saturdays from 8-1pm on NE Hancock between 44th and 45th

Montavilla Farmer’s Market – Sundays between 10-2pm in Montavilla at 7700 SE Stark.

People’s Farmer’s Market, Wednesdays from 2-7 at 3029 SE 21st Ave.

Late Summer Harvest

Posted on September 16, 2021 by Aryne + Dulcinea

Our gardens and local farms are beginning to wind down from high production, and we’re delighting in juicy tomatoes, plump zucchinis, and sweet corn. Apples and pears are coming in, figs are bursting, and some stone fruits are still perfect for plucking!

Want to know more about when foods are harvested? Take a look at the Oregon Harvest Calendar here.

Growing Potatoes = Magic!

Posted on August 14, 2021 by Andee Zeigler

There is truly no potato more delicious than a potato fresh from the ground! Did you know that potatoes are super cheap and easy to grow and the absolute most fun veggie to harvest?!

You can buy seed potatoes or if you have a favorite store bought potato you can let them go to seed. To seed an existing potato let it start to sprout, once green/white shoots have started you can cut the potato and plant those right in your prepared beds.

We prep our beds in mid March and get the potatoes in the ground before April. They don’t require any fancy excessive watering or staking, just plant them, give them a little love and wait. Once the leaves start to yellow and die it’s time to harvest! I like to do a pretty lengthy watering before harvesting to help soften the soil, making it easier to pull the entire plant.

Once you pull them don’t wash them until you are ready to eat. Let them lay out for a few days in the shade to cure and then store in a cool dry place. We use the crisper drawer of a spare basement fridge. This year we planted roughly 100 seed potatoes and each plant will produce 8-12 potatoes.

Pure magic, thank you garden!

Summer Tips for the Home and Garden!

Posted on July 23, 2021July 23, 2021 by Living Room Realty

Summer is here and now is a great time to take advantage of our cool mornings and sunny afternoons to give your house and yard a little extra love!

#1 Prune for shape!

This is a great time of year to do some tree pruning when you’re trying to control growth or keep fruit trees “orchard-pruned” (meaning you will actually be able to reach all the delicious fruit!) A general rule of thumb is prune in the summer to control the size and shape, prune in the winter to stimulate growth. *Always double-check city/county requirements for permits — especially if pruning street trees and definitely hire a licensed arborist when those branches are getting close to the power-lines!

#2 Give your house a little space!

While doing your summer pruning, think about where all the leaves will land later in fall — is it possible to safely prune trees away from the house? Clear shrubbery and vines that are growing right up next to the house/windows, especially if you have wood siding as this can break down the integrity of your paint job over time.

Check the perimeter of your foundation — does the soil grade away from the home? Is it cozying right up against the wood framing on basement windows? Do you have areas of wood siding, lattice or posts that are in direct contact with the soil? Pull soil back from any direct wood contact — this will protect the wooden elements of your home from rot and insects, especially when our rains return.

#3 Clear the roof and gutters!

Start now to get your home in great shape for fall! Have moss cleaned from the roof and make sure the gutters are clear. Also this is a great time to check your downspouts. If they are disconnected, make sure there are water diverter to send it *ideally* 10ft away from the foundation. Just don’t divert into your neighbor’s yard! This will prevent settling, preserve the integrity of your foundation, and prevent moisture issues like rot and mold.

#4 Touch up paint

If you happen to live in a home that does NOT have wood siding, remember that the window and door frames often have wood trim that can easily get overlooked. This is a great time for touch up for all of us in homes of cedar siding, hardi-plank, aluminum, vinyl, etc. Aim for paint touch ups on a cool morning!

Clear foliage from touching the house and touch-up paint on the wood elements!

#5 Plant Fall Veggies!

We have such great growing seasons here in the Pacific Northwest, and now is a great time to think about Fall for the veggie garden too! Roots like carrots, beets, turnips can be directly sown and cooler veggies like spinach, chard, kale, cabbage and peas can get started now too. Just don’t forget to water, as those plant babies are extra vulnerable to our hot days. Shade cloth can be a great tool on the hottest of days, especially in the afternoon.

Send me a message if you have any questions or need a recommendation for arborists, handy-people, gardeners or roof/gutter cleaners — I’ve got lots of resources to share!

Happy summering and loving on the HOME!

Finding the Forever Home

Posted on June 12, 2019 by Living Room Realty

Megan and Jason wanted to find their forever home, but they each had a very different view as to what that would be. Jason wanted to stick to Southwest, preferred a ranch style home and prioritized an oversize garage and privacy. Megan to be in a walkable neighborhood in the Inner Eastside and was drawn to cozy craftsmans and victorians. Needless to say when buying real estate there is always a compromise and lucky for them we found the perfect old home in Multnomah Village with one of the nicest yards I have seen in a long time. It took patience, quick decision making and an attractive offer, but the forever home is theirs!

Congratulations Megan and Jason!!

Just Listed: Spacious Oasis in Lents

Posted on April 25, 2019April 25, 2019 by Andy Meeks

Live larger in Lents with this graceful, sturdy and clean 1912 bungalow that’s been updated, but which still retains its original charm. Stretch out into the more than 2200sf of living space on three levels, including six bedrooms and two bathrooms, all with lots of natural light. The house offers a variety of options for multigenerational living, roommates and guests, as well as office space, craft and media rooms.

Play larger on the beautiful, oversized 0.23 acre lot. It’s sunny with ample southern and western exposure, complete with raised beds, perennials, fruit trees and a firepit, and the backyard is fenced and private. There is also a 300+sf detached garage and shop space for all of your tools, bikes and gear, as well as a long and partially-gated driveway that could accommodate multiple cars, a boat trailer or R/V.

Relax larger on the big covered porch out back, providing a four-season perch to watch the sunset and gaze upon your private oasis in the heart of one of SE Portland’s most exciting and dynamic neighborhoods.

A large sliding glass door from the porch provides sheltered entry to the rear tiled foyer, laundry space, full bathroom and short hallway to the kitchen. The big kitchen is at the heart of the house and links the living room and dining area into a unified whole for easy entertaining and comfortable living. The large island is sure to be the center of conversation and connection. Granite countertops and newer cabinets complement the stainless appliances, while sink windows brings light and air. There is a south-facing bedroom with a large closet off the kitchen for one-level living, or for use a reading and media room.

The upper level boasts three bedrooms, a large full bathroom, original built-ins, and a bonus nook. On clear days, there is even a peekaboo view of Mt. Hood from the front room. Finally, if all of that isn’t enough, the lower level has been fully converted, with two bedrooms and ample storage spaces, as well as a custom-built bar in a bonus living room for endless entertainment possibilities.

Bright and clean engineered hardwood floors throughout the first floor and lower level contrast nicely with modern gray walls and bright white trim. A newer electric heat pump provides quiet, easy heating and cooling, and the newer double-paned vinyl windows keep it all cozy and quiet. Gas service is available at the house for easy range conversion, and a radon mitigation system was installed in 2016.

The house is located just over a mile from Lents Park and the Portland Pickles, the lively Lents business district and International Farmers Market, and the Springwater Corridor multi-use path and Johnson Creek natural area. It’s a quick drive west down Holgate into the heart of southeast Portland, and I-205 and the MAX line are just over a mile away.

Your spacious oasis awaits!
