Sam and Christina were looking to purchase a home in SW Portland to live in while they renovated. This adorable 1926 Craftsman on a near quarter acre was only the second house we’d toured!
It had everything they were looking for— character, quality, condition, and quiet! Sam brings years of experience as a contractor to this well-loved gem of a house. With their plans taking shape, it will be exciting to see the transformation!

Live in the center of it all! This beautiful, south-facing, 1-bedroom condo on the park blocks is a cozy place to call home. Lovely views of the park, Portland Museum of Art, trees and sky. Best of both worlds— historic building (low taxes) and updated interior. Strong community of owners. Dining, shopping, museums, schools, theater and farmer’s market all just steps away. Monthly parking available for rent next door.
Purchasing a condo is one part finding the right space and one part researching the HOA as a business. Once you find a condo with features that suit your needs, you may discover through researching the HOA, that the majority of units are non-owner occupied, or there are up-coming assessments for new projects, or there are old problems yet to be properly remedied. Bill & Inge wanted to find a smaller unit, bike storage, and a solid HOA. After careful consideration to a few different buildings, they found a super 1-bed condo in a historic building overlooking the Park Blocks. Research pays off.
