Decision Time for James and Kelly!

Some folks are just decision makers! James and Kelly are those people. When I helped them purchase their first condo in the South Waterfront they looked at 2 and made their choice that day. So I wasn’t surprised when they called asking to see 2 condos in the building next to theirs. After a short tour they decided the one on the higher level was the winner. We were under contract in a day and after some intense repair negotiations they are moving in!

This beautiful condo is on the 9th floor with views of the river. They needed a bit more space with the new world of working from home and this one offers a sweet den that will be a perfect office. The deck will be perfect for relaxing outside with a good drink and a book. I am so excited and happy to be able to help these two find their new home!

Executive Relocation? Got You Covered!

We happily obliged when asked to find a condo for someone joining the Knight Cancer Center’s team. Executive relocations can be fun. In addition to finding properties, and evaluating each one, we get to wear our Tour Guide and Portland Concierge hats. She already took the job and knows she wants to live here, but we needed to make sure she knows about the city’s history and proposed new development. Because we’re interested, we also added an overview on geology (the formation of the gorge,) meteorology (seasonal rain and sun,) environment (access to the Willamette,) and scene (best Happy Hour!)

Our tour of 21 condos in 2 days to identify the best candidates was definitely a bit of a whirlwind. To stay organized we made sure she had printed materials for the properties we were touring. We made notes for each condo before we moved on to the next. Room for the piano? Wall space for bookcases and art? Kitchen finishes and appliances up to par? Then we reviewed what we had seen at the end of each day. Our third day was focused – retour the top 3, and review the offer forms, and get her to the airport.

The rest of the work happened with her in Chicago. Making the offer, coordinating the opening of escrow, collecting and reviewing condo docs, inspecting, negotiating repairs – and, of course, making sure the space was ready for her move. Technology definitely made it easier/possible to keep her informed and confident about moving forward, and the key is clear communication. Success! The end result of our frequent conversations and reports meant she is excited about her move, and ready to start the new job!

And check out her new view!
