She knows what she wants, and she gets it!

By Constance Rigney, July 30, 2020

I’ve known Maleia since she was a sixteen year old kid. It’s been a pleasure to watch her become the strong, sassy, thoughtful woman she is today.

This is Maleia’s first home purchase, but she is such a dynamo, I’m sure it will be the first of many. She knows what she wants, she goes after it, and gets it.

Right out of the gate, Maleia knew what she needed and what would fit her lifestyle. The home needed to be a condo, there had to be a parking space, and a central NE location was a must.

Boom! We only looked at three homes, and we already had a winner. The condo was in a very charming 1955 building, with great walkability, a parking space, and the perfect window perch for her two cats.

Since the building has a very historic feel, and the HOA intends to keep it that way, there was some uncertainty as to whether Maleia would be able to add her preferred upgrades to the unit. But, with some expert advice, great communication from the HOA, and one wiley plumber, we were able to get it all solved.

Congratulations Maleia! May happiness surround you in your new home.

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.
