Saturday, June 13th, 2009
Sunday, May 31st, the Oregonian did a fabulous piece in the Home & Rental Section of the Sunday Oregonian. The article was on Interlachen and Fairview Lake and referenced a fantastic listing we have there. They were kind enough to offer us and a few of the other agents with listings on Interlachen a chance to promote an open house timed on the same Sunday the article was released… WHAT A HIT!

Street of Dreams morphs into “Condo Show” in the Pearl this year-
Wednesday, March 25th, 2009
One of my FAVEorite clients (thanks Adam!) shared an article with me today (see below) that says the Portland Street of Dreams is going to be a “Condo Show” in the Pearl District of NW Portland this year. What a GREAT idea! The previous Street of Dreams homes have had a very difficult time selling and I’ve wondered how much participating as a builder has really cost the poor guys… building those homes is quite an expensive advertisement if they can’t sell them.
Hmmm. The Street of Dreams, aye?
Monday, August 25th, 2008
We visited the Street of Dreams again this year. The homes were amazing of course but the planning of the event as well as the planning of the location of the homes left us a bit baffled. My husband and I both being real estate agents decided to tour on “Realtor Day”, we took our 9 year old daughter making it a family event.
