The New Home Team
Lots of exciting things have happened this year for Home Team and we expect the momentum to keep going. One thing we wanted to share that we are all pretty excited about is the additions to the team.
We would officially like to welcome Jessica Lamb as our newest broker and Michele Brine who will handle marketing and just about anything else thrown her way.
With that, we would like you to get to know the team, old and new, because when it comes to all things real estate, Home Team knows the business like the back of their hands. What you might not know is that when they finally tuck their laptops in for the night they unwind with a puzzle, or enjoy a quick bite to eat at their favorite neighborhood restaurant. Here is a quick glimpse into the team that we all know (or should know) and love.

Why do you love doing real estate in Portland? - I love Portland's many neighborhoods, they are all so individual and full of character. Helping clients get to know these neighborhoods is really fun. For those that already know Portland, it's an honor to help guide them through some of the biggest financial transactions and life-defining decisions of their lives. Where you live affects nearly every day of your life,and I thrive on helping clients find the right home. The home where they will be most happy and comfortable.
