New Construction Plus No Commute? Sold!

By Genmae Rianelli, March 29, 2023

Welcome home, N & N! This fun couple is just getting settled into their brand-new house and we couldn’t be happier for them. As newbies to Oregon, N was commuting to McMinnville for work, but the two found a gem of a rental in the heart of Beaverton. When it came time to dive into the home search, they began looking at fixer-uppers in the city and saw some interesting homes but nothing was feeling quite right. And then they found IT. A beautifully done new construction house in McMinnville! This new build has an amazing floorplan, a dreamy kitchen for meals and entertainment, extra space for their friends and family to visit, and a yard for their pup! The best part? Saying goodbye to N’s long commute. Congratulations you two! We’re wishing you so much happiness in your new home.
