Warning: Optimism Ahead!

By Constance Rigney, December 6, 2021

I’m here to report that first time home buying  IS POSSIBLE.  I’m proud to have helped 7 first time home buyers in the last year, despite this incredibly competitive market.

 

Even with different  visions and needs, all of these new home owners found success.  For example: Josh and Jess wanted a place where they had the option of future development and expanding the footprint, requiring a special type of zoning (RM1).  Hannah and Eddie, recently engaged, were looking for a home with great walkability and a place to start their family.  Katie and Zane moved across state lines to be closer to family, and experience all Vancouver has to offer.

No matter what’s on your wishlist, we can help make it happen!  So, hang on to that optimism!

She/Her

What I love about the field of real estate is that essentially, it’s about dreams and possibilities. It’s about finding a space that can support the life you are envisioning and crafting.

Whether purchasing your first home, dialing in your next investment property, or selling your home, my goal as your agent is to be your ally and advocate, to work diligently and creatively to help you through the process. What distinguishes me from other REALTORS®? My style in both real estate, and the rest of life, is down to earth and humorous; my spirit warm and enthusiastic. Being flexible, thorough, ethical, and a topnotch communicator are the cornerstones of my business. I am a dedicated worker and won’t stop until I get the job done! I grew up on the East Coast, but my sense of adventure brought me to Oregon, where I found a richness of community, and a great love for the wondrous natural environment of the Northwest.  I spent ten years in this city as a practitioner of Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, all the while learning about Portland’s neighborhoods, and hidden gems, through the stories of the fascinating people that call this lovely city home. Joyfully part of a dream team, I’m currently partnered with Matt Guy, wonderful human and long time real estate whiz. We work expeditiously to successfully help our clients turn their vision into reality. In my free time you might find me living the VW Van life with my dreamy husband, Scott, and firecracker daughter Roslyn; soaking up the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, supporting local non-profits, or celebrating Portland’s local music scene.
