What's this all about?

This blog is intended as a personal diary of one real estate broker's travels through the latest new residential listings in the city of Portland, OR.

Because the RMLS descriptions are written by the properties' listing agents, they are subjectively written - which is to say as "sunny" as possible - and are meant to showcase the best elements and minimize or even ignore sometimes glaring deficits. In the perpetual quest for the best home for each client, the author personally tours possible matches as they come on the market.

It is true that the best go fastest, so this is an effort to share one objective (and hopefully entertaining!) perspective on some of the latest listings for the benefit of "armchair" potential buyers and sellers in the Portland area.

Enjoy - and please, feel free to comment or even request that a particular listing be toured. If it's located within Portland city limits, I will do my best to see it and post my thoughts. Thanks for reading!
