Mushroom’s New Home in Buckman

Happy dog shows off his new home…

What a gem! This sweet century home has an addition that fits right in. The lucky new owners found the perfect blend of old and new, featuring an ensuite bathroom in a king-sized bedroom, one level living with extra storage in the basement and a rare 2 car garage all on an extra wide lot. Back in the 1960’s the lady who owned this property sitting next to an alley that was being used for impromptu motorcycle racing, managed to get the alley incorporated into her yard. Bonus!

Mushroom’s family got their dream home. Tell me about yours!

Manzanita – Home at Last!

Jeff and his wife’s journey to the right home, is a tale of romance! Newly married, these love birds decided that they needed a bigger nest for their fur babies and themselves, while still remaining walking distance to the beach and downtown Manzanita. We began their search in town and toured homes in the area with a focus on location, light and a functional floor plan for each of their wants and interests. Although a few of the homes we viewed offered some of the attributes they were looking for, they just kept coming back to this newly built beautiful two level home, a block from downtown! The home offers privacy and peace with abundant natural light, open floor plans and an unbeatable location in the heart of Manzanita. Our favorite feature? The large covered front porch! We’re beyond excited for them to begin their story here, congratulations again you two.List Price: $589,000

Pulling out all The Stops

Congratulations to Cissie!

I recently had a great experience helping one of the coolest ladies in Portland buy her first house! Cissie is sharp, kind, effortlessly cool and plays bass in a band called The Stops. She found a super cute single level ranch on a quiet street in NE Portland’s Hazelwood neighborhood with fruit trees and a big yard.

Also, because Cissie doesn’t drive, this transaction got me thinking about Portlanders who live without a car and are buying a house on a tight budget. Through the process of showing her houses and neighborhoods, I gained a lot of knowledge around which outer neighborhoods are best for car-less commuters. After working with Cissie I’m happy to report there are many great places in a modest price range with great transportation options!

Compared to most, Portland is a wonderful city to have a car-less lifestyle. The commute might be soggy from time to time, but definitely do-able. If you ask most people where a good place to live without a car in Portland might be, you might get an answer like: The Pearl or close in parts of the city. But prices are sometimes steep in those areas and competition is high. What I noticed is that parts of the Eastside as well as parts of North/Northeast Portland are perfect for public transportation and bike commuters and the price point is within reach for a lot of first time home buyers!

Congrats to our newest buyer, Robin! Robin began her search at the coast over a year ago and was drawn to the peaceful small town vibes of the Bayside Gardens Neighborhood.

Cheers to our New Home Buyer!

Congratulations to first time home buyer Emily!!

Emily is the coolest! I met her through my assistant, Jasmine, who met her years and years ago while both of them were working hard to grow in their careers and bartending on the side. These days, both have hit their stride professionally and Emily is now an Environmental Engineer and killing it in her field! 

Emily is a laid back person, an avid bicyclist and came to us looking for a sweet little house in N Portland. She lived with roommates and loves how financially beneficial that living arrangement can be. Her list of needs was very reasonable, said she could live with any kind of imperfection in a home as long as she had a great bike commute and the house was in move in ready. Easy enough! …And maybe too easy because low and behold the SECOND house we showed her was a true gem!  The perfect size, in great condition, a garage for bike repairs and easy access to a bike path! We jumped on the opportunity and now Emily is the proud owner of a lovely home! She might even have enough space for puppy, yay!

Don’t be surprised if you see her cruising around St Johns on her bike with a huge grin on her face!

Perrrrrrfect Hillsboro Home- MEOW!

Congratulations to our delightful first time home buyers!

Emmalisa and Zack were great clients- pragmatic, researched, smart cookies and avid cat lovers. I didn’t think anyone loved cats more than I did! Zack even advised Jasmine on the perrrrfect cat for her daughter who has a history of cat allergies. What a dream to work with!

We looked at many houses in the Hillsboro/Beaverton area. There were some great houses that went pending before we could even get in the door and some not so great houses that we walked away from. At last, a 4 bedroom gem-of-a-house pulled at their heartstrings and became ‘the one’. It felt like home right away!

A quick, smooth, and friendly transaction made their dreams come true and I wish them all the best in their new home!

Light Up Your Home – Inside and Out!

Lighting is key when it comes to the feel of your home. Light can affect your mood, productivity and even your overall health. Below we’ve listed some ideas and tips, we hope you’ll find inspiring to light up your own space!

Inside: In the living room, try lighting up three of the four corners, focusing on art, a plant or another object of interest. Play with a combination of lamps facing opposite directions to highlight different areas, paired with an overhead dimmer. Kitchens are a work space and should be respected as so; overhead lighting with a dimmer is preferable to offer maximum exposure, with lower task lighting located in focal points.

A tip for the best light to apply makeup: install sidelights like sconces to either side of the bathroom mirror (36-40) inches apart. Add an overhead light to fill in any uneven shadows. The addition of a soft pink bulb in an intimate space will create a rosy glow, great for mood lighting. Try it in the living room, dining or bedroom! Supporting lights like bedside lamps should stand between the 26-28 inch range, with the shade just below your line of sight.

Outside: In general, outdoor lighting can be broken up into three categories; ambient, task and accent lighting. Ambient lighting pertains to the general lighting of a larger area. Task lighting can include; pathway, deck, and security lights, while accent lights usually include solar or string lights, for example. An easy way to calculate and plan for your ambient light needs, is to multiply the square footage of the area you want to light by 1.5, this will give you a rough estimate of the total wattage. For example 50 square feet of space would require 75 watts.

LED lights are also a worthy investment for outside! They use less energy and last longer so you won’t have to change the bulbs as often. If the task of lighting your backyard feels daunting, there’s always landscape lighting kits available, plug in or solar. Lastly, when lighting the exterior of your home, it’s always important to focus on the points of entry to your home and garage, as an added security measure.

Closing Around the Holidays – What to Expect and What to Avoid

Your closing date is one of, if not the most important day in your real estate transaction and can be critical to both the buyers and the sellers. When closing around a holiday, may it be Christmas or MLK Day, there are certain variables that could affect the transaction, that both parties should keep in mind.

Closed Offices – Title and lender companies often are closed on holidays. By looking ahead and communicating beforehand with each office, you’ll save yourself a headache!

Actual Closing Date – Due to businesses and their offices being closed, this date may be adjusted a day or two, depending on when it was originally set. By being proactive and preparing beforehand, you’ll help avoid the chance of delaying your settlement.

Distribution of Funds – Closing right before a federal holiday may impact when and how funds are distributed from the buyer, seller and other financing parties. It’s always a good idea to connect with your settlement agent on how your transfer of funds could be affected.

Delayed Appraisal/ Inspections – A holiday can influence and take away days in your inspection and appraisal period. In order to avoid stress and down-to-the-wire decisions, be sure to avoid a headache and schedule your appraisal or inspection as quickly as possible.

Recording of Mortgage – Finally, speak with your mortgage professionals to see how your closing date can affect recording your mortgage as well as your rights to a rescission if applicable. A closing right before or on a holiday can affect recording your mortgage within the county offices.

Staying organized and ahead of schedule will mean the difference between a stressful memory and a happy one. Closing on a home should be a wonderful day and the start to a new chapter in life!

The Importance of Communal Living

Intentional community living, is it for you? For starters, what is the difference between planned communities and intentional communities? A planned community often includes a large grouping of homes, sometimes hundreds, or even thousands of families living on small parcels on hundreds of acres of land. Whereas an intentional community creates a more intimate setting; a couple dozen single family homes, built around common green spaces or central areas to socialize.

Intentional communities operate differently from planned communities in that they place a higher focus on keeping the community connected, often offering weekly dinners, game nights, shared gardens and even vacations. If you feel that intentional living is cohesive with your life style, take a look at our listings in Classic Street Cottages, located in Manzanita. Thoughtfully designed and beautifully built, we feel it’s intentional living at it’s best!

Seeing Rainbows, Twins & New Beginnings

At a bustling open house that was fresh out the oven I had the privileged of meeting Becky who quickly introduced me to her spunky twin Star.  Not soon after meeting them we realized that they were our kind of people.  They proceeded to let us know that they were looking for the right home for their folks, Frances & Harold, who were moving from out of state for years at this point.  After we introduced ourselves over the phone, we knew we were going to be working and getting to know some very classy people.  After our call we were stunned that at the amount of trust that Frances & Harold had in their twin daughters to pick out their home.

 

One weekend we were knee deep in snow and sledding with our daughter at Government Camp, when we got the call from Star & Becky that they found the house!  At this point Frances & Harold had their home on the market in Arizona, so the sale would be contingent.  We all worked together and put together an offer that would entice the seller to take it off the market after only 4 days on market.  We soon found out that this would be a double contingency since the seller was also in contract on another home. Thankfully we were working with fantastic people on the other end (Jen Meyers w/ EXP Realty you are fantastic to work with!)  and the deal came together.

Now the whirlwind began to swirl as Frances & Harold had to pack up their life in Arizona in the hopes that the wind would land them safely in their new life with Star, Becky & the rest of the family in Portland.

After inspections & bids ensued for items that were the most important to Frances & Harold to address, we were able to negotiate a substantial credit to help Frances & Harold move forward with the transaction and make this beautiful home their own home sweet home.

Our favorite thing about working with Frances & Harold is the way they expressed so much life and color through their every fiber.  Frances & Harold are professional photographers and Frances has recently published her new book Unapologetic Beauty.  We can’t wait to read it!

Frances, Harold, Becky & Star you all were such a pleasure to work with, and we’re excited to have many more adventures together! Cheers to your new home sweet home Frances & Harold!

A Dream Refined Through Fire

When we met Patricia we prepped her for what she may be competing against in Hillsboro with homes that met her home search criteria. She wasn’t afraid and put on her warrior armor to prepare her for the battlefield of real estate. Hillsboro for the most part, is still in a seller’s market. So when a home checks all the boxes as far as location, amenities, and price they go extremely quick and buyers have to fight hard to be chosen. And sometimes one just has to walk away when the bidding war goes above one’s comfort level. After competing in multiple bidding wars Tricia was determined to use all the “no’s” to her advantage and when we found the right home she resisted the gravity of the circumstance and quickly used her experience as momentum to swing her into contract. We found the home now it was time to dig in.

Patricia did not shy away, hers was a mantra of “Never Give Up.” We stood by her side cheering her on. We all pulled together as her team and her fantastic lender Erik Liu w/ First Tech, was able to make one final tweak which upped our closing time an impressive 16 days setting her offer a part. When we got the call that Patricia was the chosen one, the smile on our faces was contagious and we immediately celebrated with Tricia.

The uphill sprint commenced and we fought hard to schedule inspections immediately and had thorough reports back to Patricia within 24hrs of our first counting business day. In our ascent, we gathered all the information needed to negotiate concessions and what seemed like a easy climb quickly showed its difficulty. Hinging on the end before falling off, we mustered all that we had to hold it together. She negotiated a substantial concession and with a Home Warranty and was excited to move forward. This was an incredible accomplishment.

Patrica’s dream came to life. It is a joy to see the smile on her face and the light that shined bright within her. She is a true testament to never loosing hope. We look forward to celebrating this great accomplishment by her side. In the end, what started as dream was refined through the passage of fire.

What to Expect When Inspecting

Home inspections, although time consuming, are an incredibly important part of your due diligence when entering the buying process. A home inspection assures full transparency for you, the buyer, when purchasing. The inspector you choose will help discover if the house has any hidden issues (foundation damage, leaky roofs) and will bring those to your attention so you can get estimates of the cost involved.

Before beginning the home inspection, it is helpful and important for both you and your inspector to read the seller’s property disclosure statement. The statement will point out any flaws the seller knows about that could negatively affect the home’s value or sale. The disclosure may highlight topics such as: Mold, Pests, Roof Leaks, Foundation Damage, etc.

Once you and your inspector have reviewed the seller’s disclosures, your inspector will perform his inspection and then produce a written report, including photos, that detail any issues with the property. From this report you can begin to request repairs from the sellers or discuss how to move forward.

Breakfast Bars and 4 Reasons Why They Rule

Kitchens can be complicated. Some are ready to roll, others need a little love and sometimes a lot of vision to reach their full potential. Luckily there are many ways to create character in your space. Adding a breakfast bar to your home offers up a multitude of uses to your kitchen experience. Below we’ve listed a few reasons and benefits!

1. Connect Your Spaces – A BB is the middle man between your kitchen and the next room. Adding one ensures an open floor plan and you’ll never feel left out of conversation or activities going on in the next room.

2. Additional Dining Area – Adding a BB creates more room to eat when family and friends outnumber seats at the dinner table.

3. Prep Station – When you aren’t using it for a place to eat, the extra counter space is the perfect spot to set up prep shop, especially in L shaped or smaller kitchens.

4. Cocktails Anyone? – Lastly, turn the BB into a CB and utilize the space as a cocktail bar or buffet. Everyone loves snacks.

Here to Stay on Pirates Way

Kathryn and Jeff have always dreamt of putting down roots along the Oregon coast and finding the perfect beach home to raise their young family. As past clients of mine, I was aware of their deep connection to the ocean and rivers, that surround Manzanita and the Nehalem Valley and knew finding a home immersed in these would be key.

This dream became a reality when we found them the perfect older home, located in the foothills of Neahkahnie Mountain. Situated on a large .30 acre lot with beautiful ocean views, matured fruit trees and southern exposure. The home itself is a two level ranch style, with incredible coastal views and open floor plans, offering a laid back and classic Manzanita vibe.

Congratulations, Jeff & Kathryn!
