Join me for a Charity Golf Tournament!Posted by admin on August 4th, 2014

Do you golf? Do you like to have fun? Get a foursome together and golf with a bunch of amazing women for charity! Prizes, drinks, dinner and fun are all on the agenda… and it’s all for a couple of great causes: The Oregon Food Bank and NE PDX Backpack Lunch Program. This tournament is for members and non-members of The Greater Portland Chapter of Women’s Council of Realtors on Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Shotgun start at 1 pm.

This is a DRIVING COURSE, so carts will be provided. After 18 holes, dinner will be provided. Prizes will be awarded for some unusual happenings on the course. Non golfers are welcome to join the group for Dinner at $20.00 per person.

Drinks will be offered on the course and I plan on having some awesome promotional items! Please bring cans of food for the Oregon Food Bank. More info and register here.

First time home buyer? Join me!Posted by admin on February 15th, 2014

Choose one that best describes you:

A. I’ve never purchased a home before.

B. It’s been a while since my last purchase and I think I’m about ready to purchase my next home…  think things have changed, haven’t they?

C. Buying a home is something I plan on doing in the future. What can I start to think about and plan for now?

D. I’m bored. I like free food and drinks. I want to meet that one home inspector lady….

If you chose one or more of the answers above, you are in luck.

I’ve been graciously invited to participate in a first time home buyer’s event on Thursday, February 20th at John L. Scott Woodstock. Join us to find out the role of the realtor, what you (as a buyer) can do; hear from a lender, a title company and a home inspector (that’s me!); get your home-buying questions answered. These presenters know the process and business inside and out and they are on your side.

We will have plenty of information and handouts (and I’ll be passing out coupons for your next home inspection). Snacks and beverages will be provided. Best of all: this is a free event!

Radon in Portland HomesPosted by admin on January 24th, 2013

You may have heard about radon recently- I’ve read about it on oregonlive and heard about it on the radio. Radon is an odorless, colorless radioactive gas that is known to cause lung cancer. New construction in Portland requires radon venting from the soil to the exterior of the home, but older existing homes don’t usually have this venting. Where is your home located? Are you at risk? If one in four homes in the Portland area are at risk for radon- don’t you want to know if you are one of them? It may be time to get your home tested- it’s well worth the cost!

Cascade Radon has some great links as well as info about a $10 test kit and a free radon forum on Thursday, January 24th (tonight!) at Portland Water Bureau’s Water House (1616 NE 140th Ave.).
