I’m not paid to list houses. I’m here to help you sell with confidence.

Because selling your home in Oregon involves a lot more than putting a sign in the yard and uploading photos to the MLS.

It’s understanding what your home is worth in today’s market.

It’s knowing how to present it, market it, and reach the right buyers.

It’s navigating offers, inspections, negotiations, and all the little details that can make a big difference.

And most importantly, it’s making sure you feel informed and supported throughout the process.

That’s why I believe in Clarity, Confidence, and Connection.

Whether you’re selling in Portland, Oregon City, Hubbard, or a nearby community, my goal is to help you make decisions that feel right for you.

Because this isn’t just another transaction. It’s your home, your investment, and your next chapter. ❤️

Thinking about selling? DM me “SELL.” I’d love to hear what you’re planning and help you explore your options.

It’s the little things about Portland that you’d miss if you ever moved away. 🌲

And sometimes, we’re so used to them that we forget how lucky we are.

Like grabbing coffee in St. Johns and feeling like you’re in a small town. Spending an afternoon surrounded by roses at Peninsula Park. Taking the long way home just to admire the beautiful old houses in Irvington.

Or heading to your favorite food cart pod because nobody can agree on dinner.

It’s the familiar streets, neighborhood traditions, and little routines that make Portland feel like home.

And the funny thing? Some of the best things about living here aren’t the places tourists come to see. They’re the everyday moments we almost forget to appreciate.
Portlanders, what’s one little local luxury you’d add to this list? 👀

Tell me in the comments, and send this to someone who loves Portland as much as you do!

Meet Holly Ln. For the life you’ve been wanting more room to live.

Maybe you’ve been dreaming of a home where the neighbors aren’t quite so close.

Where there’s enough room for everyone to have their own space.

Where your hobbies don’t have to compete with your garage, and weekends can mean working in your garden, enjoying the outdoors, or simply relaxing on the deck.

That’s what makes 18191 S Holly Ln in Oregon City worth a closer look.

Set on approximately 4.91 private acres, this home offers something that can be hard to find in one property: space, privacy, and flexibility.

For those who need room to grow: Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3,364 square feet of living space, plus separate lower-level quarters that can accommodate guests or extended household needs.

For the hobbyists and hands-on dreamers: Two substantial outbuildings, including a 24’ × 60’ detached shop and a 30’ × 50’ building with utilities, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

For those who love the outdoors: Raised garden beds, fruit trees, berry bushes, and nearly five acres to enjoy.

For those who value peace and privacy: Expansive decks, natural surroundings, and a private primary-suite balcony with a peek of Mt. Hood.

And while you’ll have room to enjoy country living, Oregon City’s shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences are still within reach.

Because finding the right home isn’t just about the number of bedrooms or square footage.

It’s about finding a place that fits the way you want to live.

📍 18191 S Holly Ln, Oregon City, OR 97045
💰 $920,000 | 4 Beds | 4 Baths | 3,364 Sq. Ft. | 4.91 Acres

Every Southeast Portland local has at least one unwritten October rule they’ll defend. 😂🍂

Some are obvious. Keep a rain jacket in the car, enjoy the fall colors before they’re gone, and never underestimate a neighborhood that’s serious about Halloween decorations.

Others? You learn after spending enough time around Foster Road and Lents.

Whether it’s an afternoon at Lents Park, a walk along the Springwater Corridor, or stopping by your favorite neighborhood spot, there’s something about fall in Southeast Portland that makes even the simplest plans feel special.

And while we’re talking about Foster Road, here’s something worth a second look. 👀

📍 9639 SE Foster Rd, Portland, OR 97266

Now offered at $295,000 after a $50,000 price improvement!

This 10,722-square-foot CM3-zoned development site presents an opportunity for investors and developers exploring potential residential or commercial mixed-use projects near Lents Town Center.

Seller financing is available for qualified buyers. Development feasibility, uses, and approvals require independent verification.

🏡 Interested in the property? DM me “FOSTER” for details.

Now, Southeast Portland locals, what’s one October DO or DON’T you’d add to this list? 👇

Portland does Halloween a little differently, and that’s exactly why I love it. 🎃👻

From spooky haunted houses and pumpkin patches to neighborhood trick-or-treating and local bakeries serving up Halloween treats, there’s so much happening around Portland this October!

And if you’re anything like me, you’d rather spend your weekends enjoying fall than scrolling through endless event pages trying to make plans.

So I rounded up some Portland-area Halloween favorites in one place!

👻 Haunted houses for the brave ones
🎃 Pumpkin patches worth the trip
🍩 Local spots for seasonal treats
🧙‍♀️ Costume shops with personality
🍬 Trick-or-treating and family-friendly events

Whether you’ve lived in Portland for years or you’re still getting to know the area, there’s always another local favorite to explore.

📌 Save this guide for your October plans and send it to someone who loves spooky season as much as you do! And want even MORE local fall favorites?

Because finding a place to call home is one thing. Falling in love with the community around it is another. ❤️

CHAPTER 3 | CELEBRATING THE KEYS 🔑🏡

Three Offers. A Little Patience. One Very Happy Homeowner!

Congratulations to Jan on her beautiful new Castleberry home! ❤️

This summer, Jan made three competitive offers. Each time, other buyers were willing to pay more than she felt the homes were worth.

So she walked away.

A few months later, we found a wonderful home that had been on the market for over two weeks. No bidding war, just an opportunity to negotiate.

✨ The result? $20,000 below asking price!

Here’s why timing the market isn’t always about getting the lowest interest rate.

Imagine a similar home selling for $600,000 during the competitive summer market at 6.85% interest.

Jan purchased her home for $560,000. Even at a higher example rate of 7.25%, with 20% down, her estimated principal and interest payment would be approximately $89 LESS per month.

That’s a $40,000 difference in purchase price in this hypothetical comparison, despite the higher rate!

Here’s what I remind my buyers:

You can potentially refinance your interest rate. You can’t renegotiate yesterday’s purchase price.

If rates decrease, refinancing may lower your payment, depending on qualification, equity, and costs. Nothing is guaranteed.

We also worked through inspection findings with trusted contractors, obtained repair estimates, and negotiated a credit for Jan to address the work after closing.

The lesson?

Sometimes the smartest move isn’t winning the bidding war. It’s knowing when to walk away and recognizing the right opportunity.

Jan, thank you for trusting me through every offer, disappointment, and negotiation. You earned this moment! ❤️

Every home has a story. This one begins with the keys. 🔑

The longer I’m in real estate, the less impressed I am by the things that look impressive on Instagram.

The number of homes sold. The perfectly staged photos. The deals that seem to come together effortlessly.

Because here’s what I’ve learned about Portland real estate:

The most important parts of my job are usually the things you never see.

It’s catching an inspection concern before it becomes an expensive surprise.

It’s knowing when to negotiate, when to ask another question, and when to tell a client that a home might not be the right fit.

It’s understanding that buying in St. Johns can look very different from buying in Sellwood, and that the right home isn’t always the one with the prettiest kitchen.

And sometimes, it’s simply being the calm voice when things don’t go according to plan.

I don’t believe a successful transaction is just one that closes.

It’s one where my clients feel informed, protected, and confident about the decisions they’ve made.

That’s the kind of real estate experience I care about. ❤️

If you’re thinking about buying or selling in Portland, I’d love to hear what you’re planning.

New to Portland? Don’t embarrass yourself. 😂🌲

Just kidding. But if your Portland bucket list only includes Powell’s and Voodoo Doughnut, we need to talk. 👀

There’s a whole side of Portland you won’t find on the typical tourist checklist.

We’re talking coffee spots that’ll turn you into a coffee snob, neighborhoods where you’ll accidentally spend your entire Saturday, parks that make you forget you’re in a city, and yes, a baseball team named after a pickle. 🥒⚾

Whether you just moved here, are thinking about making Portland home, or have lived here for years and still haven’t checked these off, consider this your unofficial Portland initiation.

📌 SAVE this for your next free weekend.
💌 SEND it to your favorite Portland rookie.
