I Was Asked To Show A Sold Home Today So I was out showing some floating homes on the river today..not a bad gig on a gorgeous sunny summer day and was heading home when I got the call that went something like this: Buyer: "Hi, this is Mr. Buyer (not his real name) and we were wondering if we could see your floating home listed for sale. We are across the river eating lunch and if we could see it that would be great." Me: (After checking with the seller), "Sure, I'll meet you there" (figure I'd get the scoop from them in person) Since I was still in the neighborhood, I do a quick U-turn and headed back to my listing, ran two doors down to my own floating home to freshen up and run over and open up the house, get the lights on, open the doors and go back outside to greet the buyers I sa...

It's very satisfying when your clients let you know that they're happy with the service you provided while helping them prepare their home for sale.  One of our home staging clients in Portland wrote a review about their experience with Room Solutions Staging, and Angie's List Magazine liked their review so much that they did a featured article about it in their June 2013 issue:  Date Published: June 2013  “Angie's List Member Sarah Nenni-Daher recently hired the highly-rated home staging firm Room Solutions Staging of Portland before she listed her home for sale. Among other things, the company brought in furniture and gave advice on how to showcase the home as a livable space. Nenni-Daher said that owner Maureen Bray has a knack for this kind of work. 'Maureen drew the spaces together...

Sometimes as a professional home stager in Portland Oregon, I come across homes that feel really dated and much older than their actual age.  This was the case with a mid-century home that we were hired to stage recently.  This home had a pending sale in just 3 days. These "before" photos were taken a couple of years ago.  It's amazing how old and tired the house looked then because of how it was decorated by previous owners! Here's the "old" look in the living room  After removing the wall-to-wall blue carpeting to reveal beautiful hardwood floors, adding color to the sterile white walls, and adding furnishings that complement the home, doesn't this house look much younger and more appealing to potential buyers?   This "before" view shows a ho-hum presentation   Removing the heavy drap...

When Retiring Do You Really Want to Give Up Your Lifestyle? This is a question that many people need to ask themselves before making a move when planning their retirement. When retiring, there are folks who want to cash-out on their current home, downsize and move.  Perhaps, they want to move closer to their (grown) children and/or their grandchildren. Sometimes, people have gotten so tired of the rat race they want OFF THE GRID and look to farms, cabins on 30 acres, private land to build . . . and I think: Are you really ready to give up your lifestyle? What is a lifestyle? life·style   [lahyf-stahyl]  noun 1. the habits, attitudes, tastes, moral standards, economic level, etc., that together constitute  the mode of living of an individual or group.

Condos for Sale in Portland ~~ Know the Ins and Outs Before buying a condo in Portland, it's practical advice to find a local real estate agent that knows the ins and outs of buying a condo for sale in Portland. I've represented many Buyers in their purchase of a Portland Condo! Portland condos for Sale require a lot more due diligence then buying a detached property.  There's many things involved such as deed restrictions, pet restrictions, parking, HOA, CC&R's, By Laws, Declarations, storage, deeded common areas, dues, maintenance, how the condo is managed, who manages the condo (self-managed or contract management and YES there is a difference), where are common areas, who manages them, what about feasibility studies, deferred maintenance, condo reserves analysis, assessments, law s...

Perfect Weather for a Portland Kayak Tour Looking for summertime activity in the Portland Metro area?  How about a Portland Kayak Tour? We are having a beautiful summer-like Spring.  Wonderful temperatures make anyone want to get out and soak up some sun. One adventure is to get out and about on the beautiful Willamette River and a Portland Kayak tour is a great way to get up close, and personal with nature. Summer Activities in Portland One kayak outfit I would highly recommend is the Portland Kayak Company who offers specialized tours. For a "No Experience Necessary" tour consider the Ross Island Tour -- which I received as a Birthday present last year.  Very enjoyable.  This tour is offered daily at 10:00AM and 2:00PM, the cost is $45/person The Willamette River dissects the Portlan...
