One of the things I love about Mt. Tabor is all the quirky, creative neighborhood art that’s popped up over the past few years.

This little gem, “Crow Chella,” has been around for a while, but with the new movie out, it seems to have taken on a whole new meaning! 🐦‍⬛

Have you seen the movie yet? And have you spotted this little neighborhood treasure?

Bay Area homeowners — have you ever wondered what your home equity could buy you in Portland? 🌲🏡
With Bay Area home values climbing again, the difference between housing costs there and here in Portland has become pretty remarkable.
For some longtime Bay Area homeowners, selling could mean arriving in Portland with enough equity to buy a beautiful home — potentially with little or no mortgage.
I’ve lived in SE Portland for more than 30 years and Mt. Tabor for 22, and over the next few weeks I’m going to share what different budgets actually buy here, along with some of the Portland neighborhoods I think Bay Area buyers should know about.
Thinking about Portland? Follow along — or send me a message. I’d be happy to be a resource.

August is a buyer opportunity month!

Portland’s housing market is shifting — but it may not be the shift you think.

July inventory climbed to 3.3 months, giving buyers more choices and negotiating power. New listings were up 2.5% from last year, while pending sales fell 2% — a sign that buyers are being more selective.

But here’s the interesting part: prices aren’t falling. The median sale price remains $550,000 year-to-date, while closed sales are actually up 5% in 2026.

For buyers, there may be more opportunity and less competition.

For sellers, pricing, condition and presentation matter more than ever.

🏡 A Remarkable Mt. Tabor Sale — $3,000,000

Every once in a while, a home comes along that reminds you just how special Mt. Tabor real estate can be.

This gorgeous grand old home on SE Scott Drive recently sold for $3 million — an impressive result, especially in a market where higher interest rates have made buyers more selective.

To me, the takeaway isn't that every home will command a premium. It's that great homes in great locations still get buyers' attention. Character, condition, location and the right presentation matter — perhaps more than ever.

Mt. Tabor continues to be one of Portland's most sought-after neighborhoods, and sales like this show that buyers will still step up when the right property comes along.

If you're curious what your Mt. Tabor or SE Portland home might be worth in today's market, I'm always happy to have a conversation.
