As a Real Estate Broker in Portland, Oregon, I’ve learned a lot about foundations in my time in this business. River rock concrete, modern concrete, pony-walls, post & pier…I know all the words. “Foundation” is such a metaphor for so many things in life. Honestly, we’ve been having a lot of trouble at home with our soon-to-be-13 year old and I’ve been concerned A LOT about his foundation.

I will often get calls and emails from buyers that do not live in the area. Either they used to live in Portland or they have always wanted to live here. Over the years I have found that you can only take it so far at distance. At some point you’ve got to come to town, tour some homes and get a feel for the place. It is possible to do remote showings after some initial work, but until then…it is all talk.
