We really enjoyed working with the seller on this super cute Ladd's Addition craftsman. We helped choose interior paint colors, organized to have the floors refinished, the windows washed and the yard spruced up. The details really make a difference! Call Jason McEllrath or Maureen Swan for a market analysis of your home if you are thinking of making a move.

Continuing the theme of really amazing clients this summer.... This is Al on the left and David on the right, father and son. Al lived in our super sweet listing on N Denver Ave. for 68 years. David was raised there. Portland Proper had the honor and privilege of helping them sell the home. We love what we do.

Jason had a 7:30am signing this morning at a coffee shop with our cute 1st time home buyer clients, Adam and Martha! It's taken them almost a year to find their dream house but we think it was worth the wait! Congratulations to this awesome duo!
Don’t miss this diamond in the rough in Alameda. Light and bright this 1939 home sits high up off the street in one of Portland’s most coveted neighborhoods. Generous and grand spaces make this a very desirable home. Large kitchen with eating area could be a remodeled dream come true. Huge master with large closets. Basement family room with fireplace and bar. Close to Fremont and all Beaumont has to offer.
Shannon and Allan had already sold their house and were renting an apartment until they found the perfect house. They had to have a entry coat closet and good closet space in the bedrooms (not always an easy find in older homes!) They had seen this one several weeks before but their house hadn't yet sold so when it came back on the market we all jumped into action! After the inspections everyone realized that it was a bit of a fixer. With some tough negotiations, I was able to get them everything they asked for! Congrats to the Dysons and their new home!
A great day to celebrate Pride and Father's Day! A big Portland Proper shout out to all the great Dad's out there - especially these two!
Sometimes it doesn't matter how long it takes - dreams can and do come true! When Jason and I met John and Shirley their needs were not complicated or fussy. They had waited their whole life for this - well 30+ years of marriage to be exact.....A nice home, in a good condition, reasonable distance to public transportation and a fenced yard where their grandchildren could play safely. Fast forward 2 months..... Jason found it for them over Memorial Day Weekend and they were in by July 4th. Home Ownership is a wonderful thing!
This 1957 ranch is tucked away in a quite wooded neighborhood in close-in SE Portland. Big brick fireplaces in both the living and dining rooms, airy kitchen that opens to a big bright dining room. Stylishly remodeled hall bath as well as a perfectly preserved master bath. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 baths on the main, but don’t miss the separate living quarters with remodeled kitchen and 3rd bath in the rented fished basement!
Sadly, the USA lost yesterday.. but Jonah and Megan won with the super cool, super cute mid-century home they scored in the Roseway neighborhood of NE Portland. Here they are signing, and Jonah is smiling even though he is missing the big game. We feel so lucky at Portland Proper, we get the nicest clients ever! Congratulations to these 2 lovelies!
Showing Karen houses was great, she knew exactly what she wanted and we set out to find it. When we walked into this house she sat down and looked straight at me and said "what do I have to do to get this house?" That was a tough question, it had just come on the market and there were already several offers. I guided her through a tricky offer and she is now the happy owner of this great three bedroom, two bath house that was listed at only $220,000!!!
