Not all glow ups are created equal! ✨
Sometimes it’s a little fresh paint and some decluttering.
Other times… it’s a full-on transformation like SE Alder.

This home got the ultimate makeover—inside and out—with the help of the talented team at @opaldesigngroup and @4mconstruction. From a major overhaul to stunning design details, it’s proof that smart updates = big ROI.

What do you think of the those before and afters? Quite the GLOW UP! ✨

Kobe Bryant once said, “Confidence comes from preparation.” That really resonates with me—not because I’m anything like Kobe on the court, but because I’ve seen how true that is in real estate.

At Robbins Realty Group, we believe that doing great work starts with being prepared and staying committed to doing things well—consistently.

If you’re a local agent looking for support, collaboration, and a place where excellence is the standard, I’d love to connect.

The Bardanas are simply the best! 💚
Fifteen years ago, I had the joy of helping them sell their beautiful home in West Linn and buy their dreamy treehouse with a view in Oregon City. Now they’re ready to sell their lovely one-level on the hill—and I get to work with them all over again!
These two are the kindest, happiest people with the best sense of humor. I`m in stitches every time we chat. I just adore them!

My top 3 favorite things about this home:

1️⃣ The great room — spacious, filled with natural light, built-ins, and a cozy fireplace.
2️⃣ The kitchen — granite countertops, hardwood floors, and the kind of space that almost makes me want to become a chef. 😉
3️⃣ The backyard — private, peaceful, and beautifully low-maintenance.

✨ Bonus: It backs to green space for that extra dose of nature!

I love Melody Aanderud of @willowfield_design_studio! She created a fabulous custom ADA bathroom at our newest listing on Ruidoso Ct—and it’s as beautiful as it is functional. Melody and I have been friends forever, and she’s truly a gem. ✨

Also… we accidentally matched each other and the bathroom. Clearly, great design runs deep. 😉
