How to Find a Realtor in Portland
When it comes to buying or selling a home in Portland, there are many options. The world of realty is vast and varied; there are many ways to approach a transaction.
Here at Urban Nest, we recognize that though there are a variety of approaches, our clients always come first. We love working closely with people to navigate daily lives, busy schedules, budgets, preferences, emotions and all the complexities that come with life. We take all this into consideration before embarking on a transaction, and then every step of the way through the process.
Find Your Match
Did you know you can interview your realtor before working together? And they want to do the same with you! The home transaction process can be long and intimate - though sometimes it does go surprisingly quickly - so you want to ensure you are comfortable with your realtor.
We recommend you take the time to interview your realtor before you begin working together. Be open and honest about the important topics:
Your schedule and availability
Your work style
How you hope the process will unfold
What you’re looking for in a realtor
Your home buying or selling dreams
A good realtor will be honest with you. If they think another realtor might be a better fit for your needs, they'll make an introduction.
Here at Urban Nest, we want you to feel 100% comfortable with your realtor, even if that means introducing you to someone else. We are a team that knows we can only be successful when everyone involved is happy!
A Wide Variety of Styles
Working with your realtor is a relationship, and as with all relationships is can be a complex process.
The good news is that here at Urban Nest we have an array of personalities, talents and skills in our agent team. No matter your lifestyle, passions or house buying and selling dreams, we definitely have an agent you'll love working with.
Beyond that, our team collaborates, leans on each other and shares information. That means you have the resources, brain power and expert knowledge of our entire office when you sign on with just one realtor. We think that’s pretty cool!
To get started, simply call our office to talk though your ideas and we can help match you up with your realtor.

Every Transaction is Unique
No home is identical, no home buyer or seller is identical. And beyond that, there is the other side of the transaction. When you find your dream home, you want the process to go smoothly, no matter how complex the process is.
That's exactly what your Urban Nest Agent is ready for! Our agents work hard to put your interest first, and to be your advocate through every phase of the transaction process. If there are aspects that you don't understand or that you find challenging, they'll talk you through your options and help you make informed choices.
Do you dream of living in a specific Portland neighborhood? Maybe you want a broad sweeping porch? A house with an ADU you can rent out? A gigantic kitchen? Not much of a kitchen at all? Sunlight for gardening? No yard at all? Chat with your Urban Nest agent about all these details. Armed with a deep understanding of what you’re looking for, they can unearth homes that have those features, or have the potential to add them in.
Get Ready for Fun!
Buying or selling a home is an exciting time of change. There are so many fun elements in the process, especially that moment when the keys are finally handed over to you.
There may (or may not!) be some challenging times, but your Urban Nest agent will walk you through every detail in plain language, not moving forward until you have a clear understanding of the process.
When you work with Urban Nest, you work with an real estate transaction champion, your ally in the home buying and selling process.
