Forget ghosts and goblins. These are the things that actually haunt a realtor. 👻🏚️

😱 A buyer gets pre-approved, then buys a new car before closing🕸️ A “finished” basement with no permits, no windows, and no explanation🔦 Showing a house by flashlight because the seller turned off the power🔒 A lockbox that won’t open while the client looks on💸 Zillow says the house is worth $200K more than it is📸 Listing photos that look NOTHING like the house in real life

Some of these are funny. Some can actually cost you. Please, don’t take on new debt between pre-approval and closing! And before you fall in love with that bonus room, always ask whether it’s permitted. Unpermitted spaces can affect appraisal, insurance, and resale. When in doubt, call me first. 😉

Outgrowing your space? This one grows with you. 🌿

At the end of a quiet street in historic Brownsville, 440 Spaulding Ave gives you 2,622 square feet across two levels.

Upstairs is everyday life: a primary suite, a second bedroom, two full baths, an office, and a kitchen with cabinet space for days.

Downstairs is where it gets fun. The daylight lower level has its own entrance, a third bedroom, a full bath, a second living room, and a 13×37 bonus room ready to be whatever you need next. Think home gym, studio, guest retreat, or a hangout space.

Outside, there’s a covered deck, a tool shed, RV parking with a sewer dump, and wildlife for neighbors. The big updates are already done: roof, exterior paint, AC, and water heater.

Two living rooms, and a covered deck made for BBQ season? Yes, please. 🙌

This Lebanon home has room for everybody to do their own thing. Put the big game on in one living area and keep the other for movie night or a quiet corner with a good book. Everyone wins.

The kitchen has storage for days, and the primary suite is a true retreat with a walk-in closet and an updated walk-in shower. It’s all on one level, so there are no stairs to deal with.

Then step outside onto the big covered deck, where you’ll be hosting all summer long (and through the Oregon drizzle, too). The .22-acre lot has a low-maintenance yard, a shed, and plenty of parking for the RV, the boat, and every guest at the party.

3 beds | 2 baths | 1,620 sq ft | $335,000

JUST LISTED! with plenty of room for the RV, the boat, AND a garden in Lebanon.

This single-level home in Violet Meadows checks boxes that are hard to find in town. Picture movie nights under vaulted ceilings in a bright, open living room, with all 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on one level. No stairs required.

Out back is where it really shines. There’s a fully fenced yard, a garden space ready for next season’s tomatoes, and a covered patio for coffee on rainy mornings. The RV and boat have a place to park, and the 2-car garage handles everything else.

The big stuff is already taken care of: a new roof in 2021, central AC for those hot Valley summers, and gas heat for the chilly months. Your weekends can go to enjoying the place instead of fixing it.

Plus, you’re close to downtown Lebanon and parks, with an easy commute to Albany, Corvallis, and I-5.

3 beds | 2 baths | Single level | Move-in ready

12.31 acres on Highway 20 in Sweet Home, and the homework is already done. 📐

This industrial-zoned site has gone well past raw land. It comes with:

✅ A full civil engineering package (grading, utilities, stormwater, and fire access)✅ A geotechnical report confirming the site is suitable for the planned development✅ A wetland delineation mapping every onsite constraint

About 8.5 to 9 acres are developable. The concept on paper is self-storage with covered RV parking, and the timing makes sense. More than 600 homes are planned across Sweet Home and Lebanon, and the site sits at the gateway to Foster Lake, Green Peter, and Quartzville. That’s a lot of boats, RVs, and toys that need a place to live.

Storage is the plan, but bring your own vision.

Want the offering memorandum and full due diligence library? Send me a message with “ACRES” and I’ll send it over. 📩
Buyer to verify zoning, uses, and development potential with the City of Sweet Home.

Practically still brand NEW + move-in ready, and in one of Hillsboro’s most loved communities. 🏡

7398 SE Madrone St was built in 2024 and lives like new construction without the wait. The open main level connects the kitchen, dining, and living room around a gas fireplace, with a covered patio just steps away. Upstairs, a flexible loft works as an office or media room, and the owner’s suite has a spa-inspired bath and a walk-in closet.

Step outside and you’re in Butternut Creek, which has a neighborhood park, a dog park, picnic areas, a playground, and a basketball court. Shopping, dining, and major commuter routes are all close by.

NEW CONSTRUCTION in Beaverton, and it’s HUGE. ✨

This brand-new Lennar home sits on a corner lot and has never been lived in. Everything is new: the finishes, the appliances, the systems. It’s all fresh, modern, and built for how people live today. That means no previous owner’s wear and tear, no repair list, and no surprises. Just move in and make it yours from day one.

You also get plenty of room to spread out inside, extra outdoor space, and easy access to Beaverton’s shopping, dining, parks, and the rest of the Portland metro.

Hot take: there’s no perfect market. There’s only the right time for you.

People ask me constantly, “Should I wait for rates to drop?” or “Is now a bad time to buy?” Honestly, trying to time the market perfectly keeps a lot of people stuck on the sidelines for years.

The time is right when you can comfortably afford to buy. That means:

🔑 A monthly payment that fits your budget and still leaves room to live your life
🔑 Savings set aside for your down payment, closing costs, and a cushion for the unexpected
🔑 Steady income and a plan to stay put for a while
🔑 A clear picture of what you’re pre-approved for before you fall in love with a listing

If those pieces are in place, you’re not “too early” or “too late.” You’re ready. And if they’re not there yet, that’s okay too. Knowing what to work toward is the first step, and I’m happy to help you map it out.

So what’s holding you back from buying right now? Tell me below. I’d love to help you sort through it 👇
