The Creighton’s found the ONE in West Linn! It’s no secret that the housing market in the Portland Metro area is HOT. At the end of July, the area had just 1.2 months of inventory available. This is down from 1.5 months in June and 2.3 months in July 2019. With housing inventory at an all time low, the Creighton’s first house sold within days leaving them little time to shop for the next home. Thankfully, we negotiated with their buyer for a longer close and 30 day rent back.
The Creighton’s searched for the next home in Tigard, Tualatin and eventually they found the ONE in West Linn. The house has soaring ceilings, tons of natural light, and a huge yard. Upstairs is a large master suite with a remodeled bathroom and an attached office, plus two other bedrooms. The lower level has tons of storage, a large guest room and a bonus room / home theater!
Closing came quickly thanks to a rock star lender who made it all happen in just 3 weeks. The Creighton’s are now ready to move into the ONE in West Linn and start this next chapter. Congratulations to this wonderful family!!

LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE ♥One of the things I love most about my work in real estate is that it never feels like "work" to me. I love it. I love guiding my clients through the process & celebrating all of the wins along the way. Are you a first time buyer who needs the 101 on all things real estate? We'll sit down and go through it all. Or are you a seasoned-pro looking for top notch service & strategy? We will work closely to put together a plan that ensures your home stands out above the competition. I am passionate about understanding the needs of each client and will be your advocate every step of the way. I truly value the relationship that we will create and my goal is to make this a fun & successful experience for everyone. Why real estate? My background as a Merchandise Manager for top retail brands prepared me well. I am that rare combination of business smarts meets creativity and this works well for real estate. I have the analytical background necessary to help both buyers and sellers with numbers and negotiation, as well as the creative vision to help clients prepare their homes for sale. As a native Oregonian, I have a deep understanding of all things Portland & beyond. I spent my childhood living in Tigard and when I was old enough, I realized a dream of living on NW 23rd Ave. The first home I owned was in NE Portland and now I live back in the burbs! When I'm not at the office or out with clients you can find me playing tennis, taking a barre3 class, enjoying family time, volunteering at a school and enjoying local theater arts.
