home buyers: Lose The Umbrella - 08/20/08 07:02 PM
It’s just another rainy day. Not even fish rain, but you might think so with all the umbrellas clouding up the sky. Tourists on their maiden voyage. They flare up like neon in the Oregon rain. We love them. We really do. And they were everywhere this morning with their umbrellas sailing high along the footpaths and hiking trails at Multnomah Falls.
But it didn’t start out that way. I awoke to the drumming pelt of rain at an unreasonable hour and felt such a ridiculously strong pull to hike up the Wahkeena trail that it seemed to me as if … (51 comments)

home buyers: Zip It - 07/15/08 08:53 AM
Her words, not mine.  Though I should be as direct as she is if I want to make the kind of splash she does. And for all her 90 lbs or so, she really IS a big fish. I spent my day sitting next to her in class and about fell off my chair when she casually mentioned that while she’s not as busy as she has been, she does have 40 quality listings at the moment. Yes people – I said FORTY!  It turns out she is the top producer (for our company) in our area and among the top … (74 comments)

home buyers: Hey Portland! Our Real Estate Market Defies National Trends - 11/05/07 10:40 PM
We're different and we know it. You won’t find us running with the pack or playing by the rules. 
They may call us ‘scenesters’, but that’s just not who we are. Flying below the radar smacks of our autonomous Pdx spirit, so is it any wonder that the current state of our local real estate market is still such a secret? While much of the nation is experiencing a slow down in the housing market, our town is still thriving! We’re a sparkling example of an independent community with priorities that define us as caring, supportive and locally involved. And it’s paying … (58 comments)

home buyers: I am the Decider - 09/05/07 08:01 PM
The troubles in the housing market are worsening, they say. Global warming is accelerating, butter flavored microwave popcorn may kill me, and my favorite shade of lipstick has just been discontinued. Again.But I won’t listen to a word of it. I have too many wonderful clients who rely on me to help them realize their dreams. And I will. This gorgeous planet is still the most dazzling point in someone’s night sky. And my lips smile warmly at the prospect of discovering an even prettier shade.  So take your bad news elsewhere because I don’t believe in you. I believe in … (45 comments)

home buyers: Dear Seller... - 08/07/07 11:19 PM
Dear Seller,
 I'm writing to you today with a very heavy heart, for the news I must deliver is not good. And while I realize this letter will come as a complete shock to you, I simply can't find the words to put it to you gently.
So here it is Seller, the plain, unvarnished truth as I know it:   It's over.
Our glory days have come to a screeching halt. No more bidding wars, waived inspections or multiple offers. No more 20% increases in property values in a matter of months, and no buyers for your weekend remodel special. The shiny gold … (35 comments)
