Hello Future Owner—Let’s Make Kenton Home. I’ve been thoughtfully designed with comfort, style, and a touch of charm, all nestled in the heart of Portland’s beloved Kenton neighborhood. From the moment you step inside, you’ll feel how open and welcoming I am. My living room greets you with high ceilings and large picture windows that flood the space with warm, natural light. Love to cook or gather with friends? You’ll appreciate my gourmet kitchen. I feature a stainless steel range, built-in microwave, and dishwasher—all set against solid surface countertops and a stylish tile backsplash. I’m even plumbed for ice. My eat-in kitchen is the ideal spot for morning coffee or cozy dinners. With two spacious bedrooms—each with a private ensuite bathroom—I offer a perfect blend of privacy and practicality. Whether you’re hosting guests or creating your own serene retreat, I make sure everyone has their own comfortable space. And yes, I have a stylish half bath downstairs too, for convenience. My finishes are carefully chosen, from chic light fixtures to elegant hardware. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable all year long. Step outside and you’ll find a generous patio perfect for evening hangs or weekend lounging. My fenced yard, is just right for a potted herb garden or giving your furry companion a safe place to play. I live in one of Portland’s most charming neighborhoods—Kenton. From my doorstep, you’ll enjoy tree-lined streets, welcoming local shops, and a strong sense of community. Several parks are just minutes away, including nearby University Park—perfect for weekend picnics, morning jogs, or simply soaking in a bit of nature right in the city. I was built by a local boutique builder and come with a one-year warranty. My purchase price is subject to you qualifying for the Portland Housing Bureau’s SDC Waiver Program—don’t worry, my people are experts! Come see what the next chapter of Portland luxury living looks like. I’d love to be the place you call home.

She/They

Ten years ago, Melissa was living in a slum in Kolkata, India, helping over 200 women escape sex trafficking by providing alternative work at a social business. It was there she discovered her passion for financial education as a means of empowering people to move out of poverty. After graduating from UCLA with a Masters, Melissa spent 5 years working as a Social Worker; assisting clients facing homelessness, in jail, or at a psychiatric facility. As much as she loved the work, imagining saving for retirement on the meager salary of a social worker was becoming grim. That's when Melissa discovered "passive income." In no time, she fell in LOVE with real estate as a vehicle for wealth. Soon after, Melissa began locating off-market multi-family properties to purchase through creative financing strategies and win-win opportunities. Two years into investing, Melissa quit her day job as a Social Worker to become a full-time broker and investor. Initially, she was drawn to people in difficult circumstances, so she developed extensive experience assisting families facing foreclosure, short sales, and probate. Melissa is well versed in helping her clients overcome complex real estate challenges. Currently, Melissa is teamed up with Super Broker, Yascha Noonberg at Living Room Realty. Together they assist clients to achieve their real estate dreams, including how to strategically buy and sell a personal residence to maximize profits. Far from the slums of Kolkata, her greatest passion now is empowering other working professionals to develop passive forms of income through buying multi-family properties in Portland.
