If you’re planning a move to Oregon in the next few months and haven’t started touring homes yet, don’t sweat it. You aren’t behind. Relocating across state lines is so much more than scrolling listings.
Here is exactly what I’m already doing for my clients months before they pack a single box:
🗺️ Mapping out the vibe: West Linn has incredible pockets, from historic Willamette to the views in Savanna Oaks. I help you narrow down the right neighborhood for your lifestyle, commute, and schools.
📈 Analyzing the local market: I track pricing trends daily so you’ll know exactly what a fair price looks like and when a property is overpriced.
👢 Boots-on-the-ground previewing: Your time is valuable. I preview homes in person and send you video tours to eliminate the duds before you buy a plane ticket.
🔎 Scouting hidden inventory: I keep my ears to the ground for off-market opportunities and upcoming listings before they hit the MLS.
✍️ Drafting the playbook: We build an offer strategy early so when the right home pops up, your decisions feel calm and confident, not rushed.
Successful relocation isn’t about luck; it’s about preparation. My goal is to make sure that by the time you get here, you feel like a local ready to make a move.

The clock is ticking, and we don’t have time for major renovations. To get top dollar in a month, we need to focus purely on high-impact, visual wins that make buyers fall in love the second they pull up to the curb.
Here is my exact 30-day battle plan:
Days 1-10: The Great Purge & Pack
Box up what you love and donate the rest. We want your closets looking spacious, not packed to the brim. Buyers need to see themselves living here, so let’s get the personal clutter out of the way first.
Days 11-15: Power-Wash & Fresh Bark
Around West Linn and Lake Oswego, nature loves to try and reclaim our houses. Power-wash the moss off the driveway, clean the gutters, and throw down fresh dark bark mulch. Curb appeal is everything.
Days 16-20: Paint & Lighting “Facelift”
Touch up the trim and paint over any highly personal wall colors with a warm, inviting neutral. Then, swap out outdated light fixtures and replace bulbs with bright, warm-white LEDs to maximize that Pacific Northwest light.
Days 21-25: Deep Clean
Hire professionals for this. I’m talking baseboards, inside the oven, and sparkling windows. When a house looks and smells pristine, buyers instantly feel confident that the home has been meticulously maintained.
Days 26-30: Style & Stage
Clear the kitchen counters completely to show off the space. Add some fresh, simple greenery and style your outdoor patio or deck to look like the ultimate, peaceful spot to relax at the end of the day.
Three weeks of hustle, one week of final prep, and then we hit the market with gorgeous professional photos.

I don’t wanna party like it’s 1999... but I sure wouldn’t mind those housing prices! 😉
Looking back at these throwback photos reminds me of just how much has changed since the turn of the millennium. But as a broker, I can tell you that today’s market has a lot going for it that 1999 didn’t:
The Power of Speed: We don’t have to rely on giant binders of paper listings anymore! The digital tools we use today mean I can get you into a listing and get your offer accepted faster than ever.
Modern Design & Tech: Today’s homes are built for modern living. Think open concepts, home offices, and smart automation.

I couldn`t be prouder to sit down for a celebratory breakfast with these phenomenal agents. This stretch pushed us all to prospect more efficiently and elevate how we show up for our clients every single day.
We definitely missed those who couldn`t make it to breakfast, but the energy of this entire team is unmatched right now.

10 years. One incredible journey. 💚
Looking back to when Mom and I first started RRG, it feels like a lifetime ago, and in many ways, it was! Back then, my house was loud and chaotic with four kids at home. Today, I’m navigating the “empty nester” life and soaking up every second with my two granddaughters. 💖
We definitely navigated our fair share of the “messy middle” that comes with building a business from the ground up, but I can finally say we’ve hit our stride. Mom is enjoying her well-deserved retirement, and I am standing here today so incredibly proud of the reputation and community RRG has built.
To the wonderful clients and colleagues who have become friends over the last decade: thank you for trusting me. I’m so proud of how far we’ve come, and I can’t wait to see what the next ten years have in store!
Nothing fills my cup quite like a visit from Mckinlee and June! We spent the weekend playing tourist in our own backyard, hitting all our absolute favorite spots across West Linn and Lake Oswego.
Watching Junie explore was the highlight of my week, she is pure joy! There’s nothing quite like seeing your favorite places through the eyes of a little one. Feeling very grateful for family time and our beautiful Pacific Northwest spring. 🌷
We are officially in a steady market! ⚖️
Whether you’re looking to buy or sell, the West Linn and Lake Oswego areas are showing a beautiful balance. Right now, it’s all about the strategy.
For my sellers: The “Sweet Spot” is real. If we price it right, it moves. If we push too high, it sits. It’s that simple. 💥
For my buyers: Now is a great time to buy! Summer is going to bring even more inventory, so let’s get you ready to find exactly what you’re looking for as more options hit the market. ☀️
Thinking of making a move this summer? I’d love to help you find your sweet spot.
