Lou Chain, Realtor

We had a fabulous time in Victoria BC this weekend. Fun & inspiring spaces and buildings everywhere you look. Not to mention epic parks and gardens! 6 hours from Portland. We caught a sunny couple of days and now it’s back to reality, fingers crossed we can get on the ferry.

Had a lovely time hanging out at DIY BAR | Portland DIY Craft Bar in N Portland. Whether you consider yourself creative & crafty or not, it’s a fun way to unplug, make something cool, and laugh with your friends.
Thanks for the invite Jo Posey

Huge congrats to my first-time buyer, Taylor. He found an oasis in and, as luck would have it, he made an offer on the same day as someone else. We went into back up and crossed our fingers. I had a good feeling about it - we both just knew it was his house. A few days later we found out we were moving into first position. He was thrilled! Nothing else we saw compared to this one. The gardens are vast and the backyard is a private sanctuary. I’m so excited for Taylor! 🎉🏡🥳🍾

I’m obsessed with this coming soon listing…Three homes on one property on one of my absolute favorite NE streets! 🌿✨

At $1,199,000, it might look a little steep, until you realize you can split it with a couple of friends or family. Ready to build your dream compound?

This one-of-a-kind Cully setup features three distinct homes centered around a shared courtyard, each with its own personality and private yard:
Main Home ( ): 1,917 sq ft | 3 bed, 1 bath
ADU : 1,092 sq ft | 2 bed, 2 bath
ADU : 800 sq ft | 2 bed, 2 bath
Plus a workshop with power, a greenhouse, parking for 5+ cars (and an RV!), and that tight-knit Cully community vibe - You can walk to a handful of neighborhood farms.

It’s a fabulous setup for multi-generational living, co-buying with close friends, or living in one and renting the rest.

Who’s in? Drop a comment or DM for details! 5615 NE Simpson St.

Thank you Julee Felsman | the Workshop Team | NMLS #120831 for the walking tour of the Mississippi Neighborhood. What a treat to study these buildings and homes that have been standing for 100+ years. It’s so nice to slow down and take in the details. I love the banner on the old church that reads “Know thy neighbor as thyself”.
