relocating to beaverton oregon: Moving to Beaverton Oregon? Should you hire a moving company… Well NO! - 05/11/09 11:04 PM

If you are thinking about moving to Beaverton, Oregon, or any where for that matter, if I think you should hire a moving company, my answer will, 90% of the time, be a big no! They charge a lot and they tend to arrive late with your stuff and your bill always seems to be larger than you agreed to.

But, that doesn’t mean I think you should do it alone. You don’t need a backache that will keep you out of work for the next six weeks… that won’t help any move be non-stressful!
Here is what … (17 comments)

relocating to beaverton oregon: Moving cross town or cross country, help your kids deal with it (Beaverton Oregon Relocation) - 03/23/08 11:33 PM
One of the biggest concerns for kids when it comes to relocating across town or cross country is that they will have to make new friends and will never be able to talk to their current friends again.
One thing to consider to help your kids before you move is to enroll them in Boy Scouts / Girls Scouts before you move, and while visiting the new city or area, take them to the new troop so they can start to make friends before the move. That will help with their anxiety of the move if they have already started to … (6 comments)

relocating to beaverton oregon: Oranges in the Kitchen, Bananas go to the bedroom and um… and Coconuts to the living room - 03/23/08 10:41 AM
Have you ever had to relocate or even move across town, and had to go buy boxes at the local u-haul for $3.00 a box? This can get real expensive real quick and I admit I move myself about every two years now and one of the secrets I've learned to save money is to make real good friends with my local produce manager!
You see, every couple days the produce department gets new boxes of fruit and then they recycle the boxes so they can make room for more boxes of fruit to come in. But, if you talk to … (15 comments)

relocating to beaverton oregon: New State, New Job = No bank financing (What?) - 03/02/08 10:39 AM

If you are thinking about moving to a new area for a new career, have you thought about the possibility that when you get there, and try to go get a loan on a new home, that the bank will say "No!"?
Why would the bank do this? The banks like to see a down payment, good credit and a good job history, and if you are changing fields, even if you make more money, the bank still may say "No!"
This is where someone like myself may be able to help! I specialize in lease options and owner financing … (7 comments)

You may not realize this, but when you move to Oregon you need to transfer your license plates and your driver's license within 30 days of arriving. If you don't, you maybe in for a nasty surprise like one of my recent clients from Arizona!
What happened? Well she had been here for 2 months and didn't bother to change her license and her plates, but did change her insurance. Then she was pulled over for something, I'm not sure what, but the officer asked for her license and proof of insurance. Well the insurance card was dated 2 months prior with … (8 comments)

AHHHHHH! It has come to that time again, where I just have to break down cry and spend another $4.99 on a new spatula. I know it seems insignificant, but it is just another thing in a long list of things that I have had to re-buy recently.

relocating to beaverton oregon: How a relocation can change your outlook on real estate - 08/20/07 09:55 AM
We keep hearing how bad real estate is in certain parts of the country and how prices keep dropping. Did you know financial freedom could be as close as a relocation for some? I have people that are moving to Portland from both Seattle and California all of the time and they couldn't be happier with the real estate market.
Why, may you ask? In Seattle, in some areas of the city, prices are twice what they are here in Portland, and in California the price may be as much as 4 times the price of a home here. So what … (8 comments)
