Yep, Todd Clark and the Friendly Home Team do it again! We sold the ugly house, heck, even the owner called it the ugly house. It hadn’t been updated since 1971 and that includes the carpets. But, we did find a buyer for it finally who had some vision and some plans for some major updating. Both buyer and seller are now happy and we look forward to serving them both again in the future.

the friendly home team: It is a sad day at Mill End Park
- 02/06/12 08:51 AM
Last September I wrote about the World’s Smallest Park “Mill End Park” in Portland, Oregon. I had some fun with it and my daughter, but today it really is sad. We have been having some major wind in the Portland area and that wind was enough to take out Mill End’s only tree. Despite the tree only being about two feet tall, the wind was enough to tip it over. So, hopefully the city will be able to restore the tree and the park to all its small glory soon. (13 comments)
the friendly home team: I prefer to use my iPhone for reminders
- 02/05/12 06:11 PM
Yep, I’m an iPhone user and I love using my iPhone as a reminder of all those appointments and things I need to do during my day. The main reason is I hate post-it notes, they would take over every space and I would still miss stuff because they didn’t make themselves more visible or shouting with an alarm saying here I am. I truly felt if it wasn’t for my iPhone that I would end up like this poor person when it came trying to remind myself of all the stuff I needed to do during the day. (18 comments)

the friendly home team: Where is all that Oregon rain going Todd? Oregon City Falls, wait what falls?
- 01/23/12 07:02 AM
In 2008, I took this picture of the Oregon City Falls and it shows what the falls normally look like, but yesterday that is not what the falls looked like. The fact is they looked more like a ripple in a fast moving river because the Willamette River was at flood stages and was moving real fast! Now, below is the picture from yesterday and as you can see, there is a major difference between the picture from 2008 and the one I just took. With all the snow runoff we are getting along with the inches upon inches of rain, (12 comments)

the friendly home team: Prepare to meet your baker!
- 01/18/12 03:48 AM
Meet Jim and Robin Condie, the owners of the Clackamas Great Harvest Bread Company located in the Clackamas Promenade on Sunnyside Ave. This great family brought in the young women’s group of our church which my daughter is a part of. Their goal today was to teach the girls how to make bread and teach them about grains and what they can do for our bodies. Wow, I learned a lot while I was there and was amazed at what the Condies have to do each and every day to bring us this awesome tasting bread.

the friendly home team: My friend told me…
- 01/16/12 03:49 AM
Oh, the words I really don’t like to hear from a buyer or a seller. You know the phrase “My friend told me…” Now, I was talking to a buyer on the phone the other day about a home they were looking at and about what was the best way to finance it in their situation. I gave them the advice I had for them since they didn’t qualify for a traditional loan, that they really only had a few other choices. Those other choices were lease option, owner financing or just wait. There was one more and that was (13 comments)
the friendly home team: Having to replace a fuse every time the doorbell rings is not a selling point
- 01/11/12 04:04 AM
The cost of 2 fuses is only $2.99, but when you have to replace the fuse every time someone comes to show the home and they ring the door bell to make sure no one is home, then it can get real expensive real quick. Thought the price of the home is great, when they walk in and see that there is no power in the main rooms, then they tend to know something is wrong. No inspector needed to tell me there isn’t enough power to run everything in the house when the fuse is blown when you walk (32 comments)

the friendly home team: You may have had the highest and best offer on a Beaverton home, but Google could cost you the home
- 01/09/12 01:36 PM
You may have had the highest and best offer on a Beaverton home, but Google could cost you the home. Well, it happened this last week to another buyer that called me today. They put an offer in on a home and they said their offer was the highest and best. You know the story, above asking price, conventional loan with 30% down. But, that wasn’t enough thanks to the power of Google. You see when this buyer was assured by his agent he had the highest and best and then 2 days later he got a rejection, he had to (14 comments)
