Are you still sitting on the sidelines waiting for the "perfect" moment? ⏳
I hear it all the time. But here is what my clients are seeing firsthand: Good outcomes don’t need perfect conditions. They need clarity, preparation, and a plan.
While others are waiting for the stars to align, savvy buyers and sellers are making moves, building equity, and settling into their dream neighborhoods. Real estate is about time in the market, not just timing the market.
Wondering what your options are right now? Send me a DM! I’d love to answer any questions and run the numbers with you.

Let me let you in on a little secret... 🤫
Everyone waits for spring. They wait for the flowers to bloom and the “For Sale” signs to pop up everywhere. But you know what else pops up in spring? Bidding wars. Stress. Over-asking offers.
Here is why winter is actually your Power Play:
Serious Sellers: If a house is on the market right now, there is a reason. These sellers are motivated, which means we have room to negotiate.
Zero Crowds: No elbowing through open houses. You have the breathing room to make a decision.
Leverage: Prices often soften, and homes sit a little longer. That puts the ball in your court.
Don’t wait to compete with the crowd. Let’s use the cold to get you a hot deal. 🔥
Send me a DM if you want to see what’s sitting on the market right now.
Guilty as charged! 🙋♀️ honestly, is it even a real week in West Linn if you haven’t run into half your high school graduating class in the produce aisle at Safeway?
We joke about the muddy cleats at Mary S. Young and the trek to the stadium on Friday nights, but the truth is, these are the little things that make this community home. Whether it’s the sugar rush of a Lion Paw at the Fair or those peaceful sunset walks on Old River Rd, we wouldn’t trade the “chaos” for anything.

What your Zestimate isn’t telling! Have you ever looked at your Zestimate and thought, “Oh sweet! We’re rich!” 💰
Then your realtor comes and bursts your bubble?
You’re not a lone in that. But here’s the truth…
Zillow doesn’t know your homes value like your local realtor does.
I can give you an accurate valuation so you can know exactly what your house is worth in the current market.

I just adore Oksana. Spending the evening in her beautiful home, sharing the most delicious dinner with her and her boys, was such a joy.
This incredible mama of four is doing truly amazing things. While her husband is in Ukraine caring for his mom, she continues to show up with so much strength, grace, and love.
Getting to help her move from a two-bedroom apartment into a 3,000+ square foot home was one of those moments that reminds me why I love what I do.
From all of us at Robbins Realty Group, we’re wishing you a joyful, peaceful holiday season. 🤍
Thank you for being part of our community…we’re so grateful for you!
It’s slide #4 for me. 🌿
Being this close to parks, river views, and everyday nature is something I’ve never taken for granted.
I grew up here, and it’s still one of my favorite parts of West Linn. The kind of place where getting outside is just part of daily life, not a special occasion.
West Linn locals, what would you add to this list?

Realtors…do feel like you’ve been pulled back this year?
That’s exactly what a slingshot does right before it launches forward.
We all hit those seasons that feel like setbacks. Whether it’s a shifting market or a slower month. But what if that tension you’re feeling isn’t failure? What if it’s just resistance building momentum?
The most successful brokers I know don’t panic during the pullback. They use this time to refine, reflect, and get laser-focused. Because when the market shifts again (and it always does), the agents who have been quietly preparing are the ones who are going to launch the farthest. 🚀
If this is your pullback season, don’t panic…prepare. The launch is coming.
