City life has been kinda crazy these days and there are a lot of folks turning their eyes to the country. A couple of acres, a gravel road, a big barn & small shop to tinker in, a country ranch house with room to breathe…it all sounds really appealing. I’ve been working with several buyers this year who are acting on these daydreams and moving out of town. If you are willing to commute 45 min to an hour, there are a lot of options out there.
My clients Laura & Andrew started their search for a “gentleman’s farm” early in the summer. Apparently, they weren’t the only ones; the first place that they offered on got 5+ offers and was bid up significantly. It was a really cool property. The one that they ended up purchasing was just a cool with better view. Country properties have a lot more moving parts than city homes: septic systems, shared wells, complicated property lines to name a few. And you’ve got to make sure that the internet is good enough to work from home. When all the research and due diligence is complete…it is a great way to live.

Principal Broker | OR
I arrived in the real estate business over a decade ago and have since helped scores of people buy and sell their homes.
The groundswell that I created in my practice is rooted in the relationships that I have nurtured over the years. My style is educational, and I see myself as the coach and leader of your real estate transaction. My coaching is geared towards empowering you to make informed decisions that will lead to your best possible outcome. I excel at asking the questions that get to the heart of the matter which in turn enables a smooth sale process.
Away from the office I am passionate about so many things, but it all begins and ends with my family. My boys are both in elementary school and parenting is an ongoing challenge and joy for my wife and I. We love to travel around Oregon, the East Coast, Mexico and beyond. My passion for surfing, kiteboarding, and fishing help to keep me grounded in life.
