Irvington Four Square: SOLD!!!

Posted on by Veronica Powell

We gave this beauty a little love before coming on the market (i.e. interior paint, gorgeous floor refinishing, updated lighting, etc.) and our efforts paid off with 6 very strong offers all over asking price!  If you’d like to see similar results on the sale of your home, reach out and me and my team of professionals can get to work!

If you’re looking for a house like this, I can help with that too.   Four Square’s are a very desirable architectural style that boast high ceilings and a true second floor (no awkward finished attic spaces!).  These don’t come on the market often, in this price point, and when they do (if marketed properly) are usually in high demand.  I can help you navigate competing offers and get you into your next home sweet home.

Real Estate Lockboxes: 4 things to know!

Posted on by Lita Batho

What’s With the Special Lockboxes?

What are they?

A Sentrilock lockbox is typically installed (with your permission) on your property by your listing agent for the duration of your home sale.  This provides access to contractors/photographer (if needed, with your permission) prior to going on the market, to agents while on the market, as well as while your home is pending sale, after you’ve accepted an offer. These lockboxes are integrated with the MLS, which means the lockbox is specifically assigned to your home.  They are also connected to an app which allows licensed agents to access keys via these boxes.  They were a new innovation about 20 years ago, and are now ubiquitous in the industry.

Are they secure?

There are some features of these lockboxes that make them especially secure and useful for real estate!

  • The data from the lockbox is transmitted to the mobile app, allowing listing agents to keep track of who is accessing your home, and when.  This proves especially helpful in the rare case when an agent accidentally walks away with your key in their pocket, since we can easily see who last accessed the box.  It also makes it simple to follow up with agents who have shown your home to buyer clients.
  • It is easy for a listing agent to provide a ‘one day code’ to allow someone not licensed as an agent to open the box, like a contractor or cleaning service.  This date specific code will only work on that occasion, and new codes will be generated if needed.  This is safer than having one code that many parties may have used and may use again.
  • Sentrilock boxes in each region provide general information on how often lockboxes are accessed, how long buyers stay at homes, etc. to provide unique data on the current market and activity, which helps us to be responsive to the market.
  • These lockboxes are designed to be difficult to remove, and difficult to break into. While not impossible, they are tough.  While you may typically see them hung on doorknobs, they can also be installed in another secure location on your property, if the front door knob is not your preference.

 

Vintage Garage Vision: EV Charging!

Posted on by Lita Batho
Classic 1940 Garage

I have a confession to make: I owned an older Portland home for many years before I felt confident to park in the garage.  The small detached garage, facing a narrow alley, seemed like it might be tricky to maneuver a car inside.   Years went by, and I used the garage mainly for storing outdoor furniture and garden supplies. It was only when I purchased an electric vehicle that getting the car inside became important to me. Why? EV Charging of course!

My second challenge: the garage had no electricity, and was 30 feet from the house.

For a moment I was unsure of how to begin.  However! Having navigated dozens of inspection/repair contingencies, pre-listing home preparations, and unexpected challenges, I knew that the goal of charging my car at home was likely easily achievable.

The Preparation

First, I called an electrician. (If you ever need a referral for a contractor, painter, plumber, roofer, electrician, window person, etc- ask your realtor! We will have suggestions for you.)  My licensed and bonded electrician gave me a bid, and explained how the project would work, and to get started, asked me if I knew someone who could dig a trench: of course I did!

Whenever a project requires digging,  call before you dig!  The utility companies will come out and mark any utility lines on your property.  This is a critical step, to prevent digging into a gas, electric, sewer, or water line. Call 811, or 1-800-332-2344 a minimum of two days before starting any digging project.  In my case, this are area was free of utility lines.

The Trench

To dig the trench, I hired a trusted landscaper and his team. Although I considered doing it myself, or renting a trench digging machine, letting professionals do it proved to be fast, reasonable, and efficient.  It took just a few hours for a few people to dig through the rocky soil by hand, with picks and shovels.

Finally, the Electricity

Once the trench was in place, the electrician returned to install a conduit and the electrical lines.  He installed a subpanel in the garage, along with a light (let there be light, for the first time, in my garage: it’s fun to appreciate small things!) and a couple of outlets, including one 240 volt outlet placed to accommodate an EV Charger.   I mounted a new EV charger on the wall of the garage, plugged it in, and was all set!   It felt like a transformation to be able to not only turn on a light, but also charge my car in the garage.

*in case you notice that the roof of the garage looks rough in the photos, that was the next project!

 

Real Estate Market Forecast for 2024

Posted on by Lily Ray Wyss

No one knows for certain what 2024 has in store in the world of real estate. But in the video above we discuss a few widely predicted trends.

Here are a few highlights:

Interest rates are already trending downwards (whoohoo).

With this we are already showing higher motivation from home buyers which will continue to increase.

Hopefully, this means we will also see higher motivation from home sellers (as sellers notice the higher demand from buyers). Leading to more homes and more options to the market.

Meaning we can predict an active Portland Oregon Real Estate Market for most of 2024. We could potentially see the market slow down in the second half of the year, if we follow trends from past election years.

Want to discuss your potential home buying or home selling needs for 2024? I would love to connect. Reach out and we can set up a time.

Knocked it out of the ballpark for these Oregon City sellers!

Posted on by Nicole Chavira
Before the year wraps up, I have a couple memorable sales I want to share. This townhome was up against a few others just like it on the market. Here’s some stats on those comparables to help you understand.
  • Townhouse 1 has had a rough go with one sale fail and multiple price reductions. It is still sitting on the market after 135 days
  • Townhouse 2 has also dealt with a termination and a small price reduction. After 113 days on the market, it is now pending.
  • Townhouse 3 did a small price reduction and after 43 days on market, it sold.
  • Townhouse 4 was slightly superior with updates and having a desirable corner lot and an extra garage space. They went on the market right before us and was our biggest competition. It took them 58 days to go pending, which is their current status.
What’s all of this mean? It tells a little background of how I collect data to advise my sellers on what their home is worth, how to best price it (remember that list price and sales price are not always the same) and how to best prepare the home as a seller. I will drive by the homes or tour them, if available, so I can be confident when we come to the table and plan how to best showcase their home for sale.
Ready for our stats!?
We went pending in  days at our original listing price with no repairs! The average days on market that week for all home styles on the Oregon City area at that price point was 28 days. So we hit it out of the ballpark!
It was so joyous to be able to provide these results to my sellers who were ready to move on to the next chapter in their lives. Their trust in me from day one was more than appreciated! We were a true team.
Ask me more on how I market and sell homes with these results. Interest rates have dropped and the new year is around the corner holding eager home buyers ready to get moving! Don’t miss out on the opportunity to get the most for your property. Contact me for a free home evaluation today!

How to get what you want with a tight budget and a bit of know-how!

Posted on by Living Room Realty

Here are my thoughts on how to get what you want with a tight budget. Let’s get creative and be informed.

 

Look at Cosmetic Fixers:

Look past the paint and the details. Is the house filled with junk? Are the photos just bad? See everything on the market. You’ll be surprised! And, I love the hunt for a great diamond in the rough.

 

Fix your credit:

Some lenders are better than others at this. I can help you find a lender who will give you a clear idea of what you need to do to fix your credit and better qualify for a loan.

 

Talk to multiple lenders:

They are not all the same and it’s important you like the lender you work with. Look into first-time homebuyer programs, FHA or VA or Oregon Bond. I can help guide you to lenders who have the loan packages best for you. And, it’s important you feel comfortable talking with them about money and finances. This can feel very personal so you want to work with a lender who is a good fit for you.

 

Look into rate buydowns:

Because interest rates have been high this year, rate buydowns have become pretty common. Sometimes you can even negotiate this with the seller so they pay to buy down your rate. You can also buy down the rate on your own and your lender can walk you through that.

 

Always get an inspection:

This will save money in the long run. No one likes surprises in real estate so I highly recommend every single client has a home inspection done to avoid an expensive surprise after you get the keys. Home inspections cost money but they are worth it! I typically recommend these basic inspections- general home inspection, sewer scope, radon test and an underground storage tank scan.

 

Look for solid big-ticket items already in place:

This one is easy because most sellers are eager to let you know what has been updated recently. But it’s very important when we are crunching the numbers and deciding if the value is there for you.

 

Focus on location and layout:

These are two things you can’t easily change about a house so they are very important to focus on when you’re buying.

 

Be realistic about the renovation lifestyle:

This is a big one because no one wants to spend every single weekend and evening working on their home projects, no matter how much money it saves.  I have a lot of clients who begin their house hunt very certain they can easily renovate a house. Then, they learn more and realize it’s not as simple as it seems. Especially on a budget. I will help you get bids for major renovations or big updates during your inspection period. That way you can make an informed decision about what works for you. This is case by case so I’ll advise according to each buyer’s situation.

 

Research the Market:

I am here to help you understand the local real estate market conditions. Are prices trending up or down? Are there any neighborhoods where prices are more favorable? Knowledge of the market will help you make informed decisions.

 

Look for Motivated Sellers:

Sellers who are motivated to sell quickly may be more willing to negotiate on price. These motivations can include job relocations, divorces, financial difficulties, or properties that have been on the market for an extended period. A big part of my job is to build rapport with other agents to get as much information as possible and find the win-win for everyone!

 

Don’t Lowball:

It’s better to look at the data and make informed offers. Sometimes buyers purchase below the list price but throwing a very low offer price out there just to see what happens is not productive. While you want a good deal, making an unrealistically low offer can turn off sellers and waste time. I work with clients to determine a fair and competitive offer based on market comparables.

 

Be Patient:

This is a big one. The timeline a buyer thinks they need is usually the first thing out the window. Don’t rush into a purchase. Sometimes, waiting for the right opportunity can lead to a better deal. Keep an eye on the market and be prepared to act when the time is right.

 

Backup Offers:

This dovetails with being patient. If a deal falls through for another buyer, having a backup offer ready can put you in a strong position to negotiate with a motivated seller. You’d be surprised how often this happens.

 

Flexibility:

Be open to compromise on non-essential features or repairs. Being flexible can help bridge gaps in negotiations. A lot of times these non-essential repairs feel like a big deal in the moment but they don’t need to be deal breakers.

 

Reach out if you’re interested in talking more about buying or selling a home. I’m here for you! If you’re a first-time home buyer I can set up a new-buyer meeting and go over everything step by step. If you already own a home and you’re ready to sell that one and get the next one, let’s make a plan that works for you.

Bringing authenticity into real estate is my calling- I love to engage with new people and listen carefully to their needs and goals, then throw all my energy into helping to achieve them! I am known for my knowledge of the market and my ability to educate and listen carefully, although my secret superpower is that I remember every house I’ve seen (which is a lot).

Just Sold near Peninsula Park! Yay for my first-time home buyers!

Posted on by Living Room Realty

Congratulations to my clients!

As you may already know, my business is referral based and I love meeting new people. So you can imagine how happy I was when a past client recommended Jane and their partner to me. It was such a joy getting to know them on their house hunt!

Here’s a little rundown of how it went.

We started with a buyer consultation and spent an hour going over the process in general. That’s the best way to get started, going over the current market and setting expectations for everyone. That’s when I ask the most questions about what my clients are looking for and we set the pace for the house hunt.

 

We saw multiple houses every week in various neighborhoods for many weeks until we narrowed it down and found the area that felt like home. The house they chose checked a lot of boxes, it was the perfect size in a great location and it had more than one bathroom plus a garage (bonus!). We saw the house 3 times just to be sure and then successfully got the offer accepted! They did a great job of getting financially ready, approved by a reputable lender, and had all their ducks in a row in that arena. (That truly is the first step!)

 

As we went through the inspection contingency period, I really liked that Jane and her partner asked a lot of questions along the way. One thing that people don’t always lean into when buying a house is making time to dive into research and ask all of the questions, even the dumb ones (and there are no dumb ones). Carving out time for this is so helpful because it’s the meat and potatoes of the whole deal. I’m here to advise and guide you along, but there is a lot to digest and having the time for those conversations and follow-up questions will always feel good.

Here is a general overview of the inspection contingency period. I will advise you while you look over the permit history, have the sewer scoped, the home tested for radon, the property searched for underground storage tanks, plus have a whole property general inspection as well. And that’s not always all, there are more investigations sometimes. It’s a lot and it’s awesome! Because after all of that, clients have a much better understanding of the home with all of its pros and cons.

 

So in this case, some things did come up in the investigations and we negotiated a credit and a price reduction. A couple of weeks later we had fun at the signing and a few days later we wrapped it all in a bow and I gave them keys.

 

Please reach out if you’re interested in talking about buying or selling a home. I’m always here for a check-in about the current market, lender recommendations or anything I can do to help advocate for your homeownership.

Summertime, is the time,…. to prep your house for market.

Posted on by Veronica Powell
For most of us Summer is just getting started.  BUT if you’re planning to sell your home this Fall, now is the time to prepare!
     1) Start purging, tidying & packing (This always takes longer than you think it will. Start this asap!).
     2) Work on/schedule any needed repairs or maintenance.
     3) Talk with an Agent about your goals and timeline.
     4) If you’re planning to make another purchase, talk with a Lender (Your Agent will likely have some good referrals for you!)
     5) Discuss strategies with your Agent regarding how to make your home compelling to Buyers (Fall is a short selling season so proper positioning is key to success).
Prepping your home for market can feel like a daunting task. Your Agent can help you prioritize tasks to stay on schedule and focus your efforts on the projects with the biggest impact and return on investment.
My team of professionals can help you  get your home to where it needs to be to attract Buyers. Give me a call for a complimentary consult to get you stated and on the path to “SOLD!”

Most Desirable Home Style for 2023? Upgraded Single Level Living!

Posted on by Jené DeSpain

After hitting the market around 4:30pm on a Thursday this mid Spring, my seller and I had immediate requests for showings from hungry buyers. Our first buyer appointment was scheduled for 6pm that day and they submitted an offer that evening by 9:30pm at almost $35k over asking. That following weekend would continue to produce constant buyer appointments, two very active open houses, and a total of 7 buying parties VERY interested in placing an offer.

We ended up with 4 extremely strong offers from some really incredible families. Things ended up escalating to over $240,000 over asking. While the Portland market has remained strong with housing inventory very low, you might be wondering how did this single home receive such strong high offers? The big ticket = absolutely dialed, move-in ready, single level living, with bonus basement space. Each of the families that offered NEEDED a home where they could live on the main level and enter into the front door, out into the backyard, and into a detached garage with very little steps. This gorgeous home offered all of those features. While I hoped a great amount of success for my seller, I had no idea how powerful the need was for buyers looking for this style of home.

I have been contacted a few times by fellow agents and developers asking what was the golden ticket to this property. It’s opened my eyes to the sincere demand for all types of families who want to live in inner NE Portland, but need to have the home be accessible with only a few steps into the house, with the majority of living on that main level. It was such a spectacular transaction. My seller was beyond delighted with the marketing I was able to create and the navigation we journeyed together towards a very happy close on her home. Congratulations to all the parties involved in this adventure! So special to work on such a fantastic deal with a truly wonderful buyer’s agent and very dedicated buyers. ♥︎

2022 Was a Very Good Year

Posted on by Alyssa Isenstein Krueger

 I am in the bizzyness of selling houses to good humans in Portland, OR. In 2022 I had the pleasure and privilege of selling 27 magnificent homes to the best buyers and sellers in the world, including a handful of folx who bought and sold, or sold and bought. I work by referral only, and after working as a real estate broker for 15+ years, I have the divine fortune of being able to choose to only work with good people who I adore. For those of you who have worked with me over the past 15 years, and those of you who have referred your friends, family and colleagues, I am thankful beyond belief. Goodness gracious I am one lucky duck.

2023 Is the Year!

Posted on by Veronica Powell

If 2023 is the year you plan to Buy or Sell, now is the time to plan and prep.  The first step is to decide on the team of experts to get you comfortably and successfully through this process:  your Realtor and/or Lender.

 

Selling

Now is the time to talk with your agent about market prep.  The right market prep can lead to a quick sale at favorable terms, even in a market that is…on the slow side.  Inventory levels are still low and Buyers still want the house with the beautiful photos that is (or appears to be) move in ready.  A good agent can help you achieve that goal.

 

Buying

Now is the time to find the right lender.  In a market with higher interest rates, a Lender that is open to a creative approach to your financing might be the way to get you the most for your money.  A lender that has a solid financial background, as well as being a mortgage originator, is the best approach here.

 

Bottom line, it’s not too early to start planning for a Spring or Summer move.  NOW is the time to get ducks in a row to make this transition as smooth as possible.  I’m happy to help with market prep, contractor referrals and lender referrals.  Let’s chat!

Nice Knowing You Quarter 2 of 2022

Posted on by Alyssa Isenstein Krueger
My seller’s homes!

Between March 1st and June 30th of 2022, the real estate market here in Portland saw appreciation rise at a rate not seen since, well, ever. Over 20% year over year. Despite the challenges of the market, particularly being a buyer,  I had 10 buyers and 5 sellers successfully close on homes- all on the east side in the City of Portland. Of those buyers and sellers- 2 sellers were able to buy first and closed in March, and then sold their homes April and May. Another of my sellers was able to sell their home and buy their next one within a couple of weeks in June.  Six of my buyers were first time home buyers, and 1 of my sets of buyers purchased the home they had been renting directly from their landlord off-market. Lucky ducks. Of my 10 buyers, 7 got the first home they wrote an offer on, 2 got the second house they wrote on and 1 set got the third and best house they wrote on. The total number of homes I wrote a total of 14 offers. The youngest house I sold was a 1960 rancher in Parkrose Heights, and the oldest was a bungalow in the Richmond neighborhood built in 1912. Three of the houses got new roofs, 2 got new sewer lines, and 2 had leaking oil tanks- all of which were taken care of by the seller.

My 5 sellers did really well. Four of my sellers received multiple offers, and the fifth set of sellers accepted the first offer they received which was well over asking and submitted less than 24 hours after we went on the market. Of the 5 homes I listed, 4 were ones I had originally sold to the sellers. Bringing it full circle. Of my five sellers, 3 bought new and larger homes in Portland, and 2 moved out of state.  The youngest house I sold was a condo built in 1972 on Jantzen Beach. All the other homes were built between 1906 and 1953. None of my sellers made any repairs, and only 2 gave closing cost credits/concessions for needed repairs. I sure know and love old houses.

My buyers homes!

Everyone of my clients was either a past client of mine, or a referral from another previous client, a friend or lenders I partner with.  Fifteen transactions in 3 months is a lot for little old me who doesn’t have an assistant and doesn’t want one. Those are probably at least half the  number of transactions I’ll have the honor of working on for the entire year. So much joy and happiness to be surrounded by.

Top 5 Reasons To Prep Your House For Market (Even With Low Housing Inventory Levels)

Posted on by Veronica Powell

With such limited inventory, a seller might think, “Why bother prepping my house for market, when Buyers are competing for listings?”  I get where that is coming from but here are a few things to consider before taking that short cut.

1) Buyers are competing for “the good ones”, the ones that make Buyers feel at ease and in love.  A property that comes with an obvious “to do” list does not garner those same emotions.

2) Emotions are what sell properties.  By the time a Buyer walks in the door, they know several things already work for them (i.e. Location, BR/BA, etc.), or they wouldn’t be in the house to begin with. What Buyers are looking for is a house that they can imagine themselves living in.  This is much harder to do when all you see is projects or clutter.

3) The “ugly ducklings” are not the houses selling the first weekend.  The “beautiful swans” are.  In this market, a house that is on the market for more than that first weekend already starts to look stale and has Buyers wondering: “What’s wrong with it?”

4) With expert guidance, improvements can literally double (if not more!) your return on pre- market prep investments.  Painting, trim touch ups, updated light fixtures, staging, all of the items that you are dreading doing, a Buyer will dread even more.  Once it’s done, the stack of offers will have made all of that effort worthwhile.

5)  Every Buyer wants a house that has been well maintained.  It looks better, feels better and can be an indication of how a house will inspect.  Start things off in the right direction by catching up on things that have maybe fallen by the wayside in the years that you’ve been in your home (i.e. HVAC service, gutter cleaning, roof moss treatment etc.).  It will result in higher Buyer interest and a more committed Buyer.

If you’d like to discuss how my team could transform your home, to make the most of your investment, I’d be happy to meet with you to discuss your budget and the best options for your situation.  To truly take advantage of the strong Seller’s market, your house still has to shine!

SE Portland Dreams Come True!

Posted on by Living Room Realty

One of my favorite things about being a Realtor is helping people buy their first home.

It brings me so much joy to see people embark on their journey into homeownership and creating longitudinal wealth.

Meet Corey. I’ve known this lovely human for about 15 years and he has often thought about buying. Even though he has a great job he wasn’t convinced it was possible to do on his own. Working with a local credit union Corey was able to secure a zero down loan. It’s not the easiest thing to have a zero down loan accepted in this competitive market, but we were able to get into contract with our second offer. After inspections and negotiations we also got a new roof and enough credit to cover ALL off his closing costs and a home warranty!

Today we picked up the keys, went inside and immediately pulled up some of the carpet to inspect the beautiful hardwood floors hiding underneath. With a little bit of sweat and some paint this house is going to be completely transformed from grandma’s house to a stunning midcentury ranch. The large yard will be the perfect oasis for Hank, the very strange little cattle dog, and the perfect place for outdoor hangouts this summer.

I’m so excited to watch this journey and filled with gratitude that time and time again I am trusted to help people start their next chapter.

Congratulations to Laura & Her Kiddos!!

Laura is a good friend of my teammate, Jasmine Deatherage’s and I’m so glad I met her! She is so bright & funny!  And now, Laura just closed on that house!! It’s a super unique A-Frame with tons of exposed wood and a fantastically updated upper level.

Another great part of Laura’s story is that she was able to use funds from the Portland Housing Center’s IDA program to help pay for her closing costs! I highly recommend that you look into this program to see if you or someone you know might qualify. HERE is the link!

Jasmine and I wish Laura all the best in her wonderful new home!

Closed on this cute as a button one-bedroom condo in the Cardinell View Lofts! The seller, Kim, decided she wanted to move closer to her kids in Vancouver so we listed her condo.

This condo is such a steal, priced just right with an incredible city view. Congrats to Kim and her move over the river!

Congratulations Dovina and Leonard!

Posted on by Tracey Henkels

It was just meant to be!

If you know me, you know that I love helping people make a move. I love my peeps and I’m super committed to getting my clients into the home of their dreams. I will negotiate until my face turns blue and call every contractor in town to get information for my clients. I am committed to making this a great experience but unfortunately, you can’t always control how things go? For instance, I can’t make a seller accept an offer. I just can’t.

So here’s the short version of one of my all-time favorite stories 🙂

Leonard and Dovina really wanted to live in Newberg to be close to their daughter and grandchildren. Last spring and summer, we looked at just about everything that Newberg had to offer. It’s not unusual for the search to take a little longer when you’re looking in a small and popular town, like Newberg. After months of looking, they found a gem, a darling house that is close to downtown with a cute yard and great character! It quickly became competitive and we pulled out all of the stops. Long story short, Len & Dovina’s offer was the highest with exceptional terms, but in the end still beat out by a lower cash offer because they totally waived the inspection period. I just can’t ever recommend that a buyer waive all inspections.

It just wasn’t meant to be is what we told ourselves. That’s what we have to say sometimes to make sense of things when it doesn’t go the direction we would like. But this one kept nagging at us! We continued to look in Newberg for another year and kept comparing every house to the ‘one that got away’.  …And then it came back! Almost exactly a year later it popped back up and wouldn’t you know it, we put it in an offer and got it this time!

Cheers to my lovely friends, Leonard and Dovina! I wish them all the best in their home that was definitely meant to be!

Congratulations to Justin!!

Sometimes I meet clients who have a unique vision searching for a special property. This was definitely the case with Justin! He is an artist and psychologist who strives to bring people together and build community around him. What a gem! 

Once we met up and started looking I quickly realized how unique of a property he was looking for and I knew this would take some serious searching and diligence. I was ready to be patient and do whatever it took to make it happen for Justin. 

But then wouldn’t you know it, Justin must be connected to the stars because he made it appear! He found a darling house that fits his needs perfectly! It had been on the market for quite a while waiting for the perfect buyer. We were able to get a great offer accepted for Justin and we were off to the races!

I am so happy for Justin and I wish him all the best in his sweet new home!

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!

 

 

 

Barb and Tom find their fresh start!

Posted on by Tracey Henkels

Congratulations to Barb and Tom!

Everyone loves a fresh start! My lovely clients, Barb and Tom just made the leap from Florida to Portland and scored a wonderful condo on the SW Waterfront. You wouldn’t believe the gorgeous views of the river and the west hills (swoon!). What a wonderful spot to land.

I met Barb and Tom a few years back when I helped their son buy a home in SE Portland. We hit it off immediately, they are so fun and lively! And as you probably know, moving to be close to family has been a trend with the pandemic. Plus they are retiring and were ready to downsize. We looked at a few lovely homes but in end, a condo made the most sense because of the low-maintenance lifestyle. I’m so excited for them to move in and have fun around the city with their family!

Easy peasy… here’s the key-z!

Posted on by Tracey Henkels

Congratulations to Kari & Trina!!

I love referrals!! I think I’ve said that before, but it’s just so true! Every dang time.

Here’s the story, Kari and Trina found the dream-house before they found the dream-agent. We happen to have mutual friends who referred them to me and what a great match we are! They are fun, smart and know what they want. Perfection!

Here is what is so cool about referrals. When a past client or close friend refers me to someone I’ve never met, it’s far more likely that we will build trust quickly and be able to hit the ground running because the new client already expects to have an awesome experience. That was certainly the case in this situation. This was a competitive sale and we needed to hit the ground running. From the minute I met Kari and Trina I knew that we had trust and that we could do what needed to happen to get them into their dream house. And it was an awesome experience! Now they have the keys to their forever home and I hope they refer me to their friends as well.

If you or anyone you know wants to talk about buying or selling a home, I would love the opportunity to connect with them!

There comes a time when all the pieces fall into place!!

Congratulations to the Voelkers!!

 

I’m so thrilled for the Voelkers and their new home!! They exemplify patience and stick-to-itiveness! And now they have keys to a sweet 50’s ranch in a great neighborhood close to their friends. 

Everyone knows that things don’t always happen on your timeline. Sometimes you’re rolling with the punches and pivoting more than expected. The Voelkers were always game to try things out and walk away when it wasn’t right. That’s especially hard to do in a seller’s market and there’s no guarantee the next one will be any easier for a buyer. But, again, patience and persistence run deep in this family, and I admire that! Buying a home is no small thing and you should only buy the house that is right for you. This is surely the home that is right for the Voelkers! Cheers!

Today is special. Today I will give M & A keys to their first home. Their first home! It’s just so exciting. I’ve known M for about 15 years, we worked together, we commiserated together, and now when we see one another we can just chill together. It makes me so happy to be the person they chose to lead them through this process.

If you and I have ever had a conversation about real estate you already know that I find true joy in working with first time homebuyers.  There is just so much potential that comes with owning a home. In the big picture it’s a way to gain longitudinal wealth, an investment that may be used to propel you into something new, or simply the security of never having your rent raised again. In the day to day there is the feeling of safety, of having a place to grow and evolve, and knowing there is a place that offers comfort the moment you walk through the door. Lastly, we can’t forget the ever present improvements and projects. Sometimes fun and sometimes challenging, home projects almost always come through with an opportunity for growth. You’re going to learn things on YouTube that you never thought you’d need to know!

Congratulations to Brittany, Ryan & Marcia!!

 

I had such a lovely time working with Marcia, Brittany & Ryan! They were so very put together and focused throughout the process. We looked at a good number of homes although it wasn’t long before Brittany knew ‘This is the ONE’!

As you know, we are in a Seller’s market and it’s not likely that all issues will be addressed in a home purchase these days. Luckily we were matched up with great Sellers and we were able to negotiate a sizable credit to repair some important issues. Nothing makes me happier than knowing my clients will have a smooth transition into their new home and not have to worry about major repairs.

It’s so important to me that my clients have a great experience and are happy with the whole process and know that I’m there for them every step of the way!

Sometimes Everything Changes

Posted on by Living Room Realty

My clients loved their California home for decades, they made a lifetime of memories there. They enjoyed amazing friends and neighbors, being close to the beach, and weather that many people just dream about. Their kids were grown, living in Portland, which gave them  every opportunity to visit their second favorite city often. There had been talk of a small vacation home in Portland, but they never imagined they would leave their home. Fourteen months ago everything changed. The pandemic caused a lot of people to reevaluate their priorities and for my clients the importance of being geographically close to their kids was clear.

We spent a lot of time touring homes in search of just the right place. When moving to a new city it can take some time to figure out the right neighborhoods and architectural styles to suit you – so we explored. After narrowing down their ideal neighborhoods and really solidifying what they needed in a home we started making offers. It took a couple of times in this fierce market, but when we found their new home we got competitive and it felt like the stars had aligned. Their son and daughter in-law had lived near this home when they first moved to Portland and affectionately called this “the banjo lady house,” because one of the owners was often out front playing her banjo on the porch when they would walk by.

As we moved through our transaction we learned that the sellers and my buyers had a very similar story. Both were leaving their long time homes to be closer to family. Both were artistic and musical, “old hippies,” as they described themselves. Everything about this transition felt right. Soon this home will be the, “flute guy house,” and I just can’t wait to hear the music float through the neighborhood!

What’s Meant To Be Will Be

Posted on by Living Room Realty

Reilly and Jaime were referred to me by a local lender and I have to be honest, from the first conversation we had I was thrilled to be working with them. They’re both in their 20s, out of college, and finding their paths in the world. The task ahead of us: find their first home.

Side Note. I have to nerd out for just a minute. I love working with first time homebuyers. I love it because I believe in home ownership as the jumping point for people to start building longitudinal and generational wealth. Homeownership is something I want to see for everyone at some point in their life. It especially excites me for young people to start owning as soon as possible, it opens up so many opportunities in the future. I have many friends who have started businesses, confidently changed careers, and/or retired early as a result of early home ownership.

Back to Reilly and Jaime. We knew they wanted to be in Vancouver and we quickly distilled their wants and needs to figure out exactly what we were looking for. We talked about the challenges in the current market and the strategies I like to employ to be competitive (we are in a heavy seller’s market right now). Some things will always be standard, but sometimes coloring outside of the lines is exactly what you need to do.

We looked at several houses and it didn’t take long until we found the house they were looking for. It checked the most important boxes. We made our offer. So did a dozen other people. We got beat out, barely, but we were in the #2 position, something I was more excited about than they were – because I knew it meant we still had a chance. We kept moving forward and looking at other properties, that’s how it goes. A couple of days later, just as we were getting ready to write an offer on a house that was great, but not quite as great as the first one, I got the call. The first position buyers had backed out due to cold feet and we were now in first position for them to buy the house they really wanted. Calling Jaime and Reilly to tell them the news was my favorite phone call that day.
