Start where you are
Three ways in
Most people arrive knowing one of these three things about themselves.
I do not know which town
Community guides covering schools, commutes, housing stock by era, and the due diligence each town specifically demands.
I am thinking about selling
What your home is realistically worth, what it would net you, and which repairs come back to you at closing versus which do not.
Something changed
Downsizing, an inherited property, a divorce, a sale out of a trust. Each has its own sequence, and I have written a guide for each.
Communities
Know the town before you tour the house
Every page is written from actual transactions there — not a search box with a town name on it.

Search
Three ways to look for a house
See what I have listed now, search the MLS on a map, or send me a link you already found.
Search every listing
Live MLS data with map search and an AI option that lets you describe what you want in plain language.
Send me a link
Found something on Zillow or Redfin? Send it over and I will tell you what the listing is not saying.
Forty-nine five-star reviews, in one place
Every review from 2012 to today, verbatim, gathered onto one page — so nobody has to hunt across six sites to find out whether I am any good.
Resources
Written for the part that actually goes wrong
Wells and water rights. Septic. Oil tanks. Selling after a loss. The things a listing photo will never tell you.
For Buyers
The mistakes that cost Oregon buyers the most, and what to check before you remove contingencies.
Eight Guides
Buying, selling, downsizing, probate, divorce, trusts and ownership. Free to read, no email required.
The Blog
Eighty-three articles sorted into seven categories — buying, selling, communities, country property, investment, estate transitions and home stories.
Oregon Senior Guide
A whole second library
Housing directories, 55+ communities, in-home care, veteran benefits, probate, and a step-by-step downsizing plan. Built for families figuring out what comes next.
Visit the Senior Guide
I hold the Seniors Real Estate Specialist designation. A good share of what I handle is a family making a hard decision on a deadline, often for a parent. That work deserved its own place to live.
John L. Scott Market Center
John L. Scott has been family-owned since 1931, four generations in. The Market Center itself is independently owned and operated. Why the brokerage behind the agent matters.
