With a Little Help from My Friends!

Congratulations to Jess and Julie on their Home Purchase!

This transaction was a great example of community and team effort! I would like to take this opportunity to give a shout out to the team of preferred professionals that have helped my business grow and thrive over the years. It means so much to me to support the businesses of folks to support me and my clients. I truly believe in that business model and I believe in contributing to my community in that way.

Firstly, Jess and Julie worked with my preferred lender JJ Lee Kwai at Two Rivers Mortgage and she is the definition of a rock star mortgage lender! She walked Jess and Julie through everything and even came to their signing to make sure she was right there in case they had questions or if there was an issue. I know this means a lot to clients and that’s why I love working with her.  Time and time again my clients sing her praise and she deserves every ounce of it.

A big shout out to Uli Sommers, my favorite inspector. Working with Jess and Julie on this house, Uli was very thorough in her work and thoughtful in her delivery and advice. Uli had a few recommendations for repairs and once those were complete, she happily came back out to re-inspect and put my client’s minds at ease. I know that everyone who works with her is going to get the best service at the best price.

Mike Reed from First American Home Warranty is my go-to person for home warranties! Jess and Julie are very pleased to have a home warranty from First American. He is very customer service oriented thanks to all the services he gets from companies like Salesforce and it shows!

My assistant, Jasmine, played a huge role in this transaction! She was right there to help Jess and Julie with all aspects of the transaction including showings and inspections. Together we provided a higher level of service than I could have on my own. I genuinely appreciate her hard work, dedication and commitment to my clients!

Jess and Julie have the coolest pup in town, his name is Luigi. They also have a sweet kitty named Oliver and I hear that he’s going to be getting the swankest catio in town!

Drew & Jackie Move Back to This Side of the Pond!

Congratulations to Drew and Jackie!

I think a lot of us can agree that a big part of what we love about Portland is the abundance of high-quality food and amazing restaurants, and I am no exception. As much as I enjoy cooking, I also love dining out and even more than that, I LOVE introducing my favorite people to my favorite restaurants! And for this reason, I am thrilled to have been referred to Jackie and Drew, Portland’s newest foodies!

Originally from the East Coast, Drew and Jackie are relocating to Portland from Europe where they have been living and working for almost a decade. All in all, they were decisive clients and we quickly got them into contract on a well crafted, newer home in NE Portland. On the day of their home inspection, we decided to debrief over lunch at Tamale Boy on Dekum. The meal was amazing (!) and inspired us to start talking about our favorite restaurants and I quickly realized they are definitely moving to the right place!

My favorite restaurants to introduce people to are: Xico, Tusk, Arrosto, Firehouse, Shalom Y’All and Jacqueline. Looking forward to dining out with Jackie and Drew!

Newlyweds on Mississippi Ave

Newlyweds on Mississippi Ave  Newlyweds on Mississippi Ave  Newlyweds on Mississippi Ave

Oh, hey. Let me introduce you some of my favorite clients. Meet Emily and Jason!

Newly(ish) married and working professionals, these two wanted a low maintenance home in a walkable area. We looked at a few homes that were further out and they quickly realized that they wanted to be closer-in, and would sacrifice a yard for great restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. As long as there was space for a “shoe room.”

After I previewed the GORGEOUS condo on Skidmore and Mississippi, I emailed them both and said, “Newlywed Soph would be all about this one.”

Matt’s BBQ, Por Que No?, The Rambler, Paxton Gate, Pistils Nursery…the list goes on. All within walking distance too.

Jason was smitten as soon as he walked in (he showed up a bit earlier than Emily), and tried to stifle his excitement to allow her the ability to form her own opinion. She was quickly, equally as smitten.

I mean, the master bathroom looks like it belongs in a luxury hotel.

I’m so excited for these two! They are decisive, smart, kind and stylish and will make amazing neighbors. This was a perfect first buy for them.

Congrats, Emily and Jason! I can’t wait to come stay…errr, visit you!
