MATEO BARTA
Real Estate Broker
Licensed in Oregon
Mateo wanted to help friends, family and strangers alike learn about the home buying process and their ability to build wealth through home ownership. He wanted to use the communication and negotiation skills he'd honed through nine years as a media planner/buyer in advertising to benefit his community at large, helping folks find a place that fit their lifestyle and financial needs. Plus, he was excited to get out from behind a computer screen and out exploring the greater Portland and Vancouver areas!
His ideal adventure for an urban Portland day: An espresso and latte at one of his favorite neighborhood coffee spots. Taking his dog, Peanut, for a long walk at his "secret spot" in Forest Park. Lunch with friends. And a sunset hang at Kelley Point Park.
Their superpower: Chit chat! Communication! Honest and transparent explanations of the home buying and selling process from start to finish. This extrovert with a communication degree will never leave you guessing.
Superpower he wishes they had: Teleportation. His friends and family are scattered up and down the East and West coasts and he wishes he could more quickly hop back and forth to visit - and still be home in time to meet his next client at a showing.
Favorite moment/s in real estate: There is something so cool about walking into a house with a client and them knowing immediately that it is "the one." Mateo loves those moments, and then getting to walk his clients step by step through making that house their own.
Favorite Portland neighborhood, and why? Mateo has a soft spot for NE Portland, but specifically Woodlawn. He lived near the Dekum triangle for 3 years and currently resides "next door" in the King neighborhood. Woodlawn has special coffee and restaurant gems, a summer farmers market, a park, and quiet streets - dreamy.
