REAL ESTATE NEWS: BUYERS - WE'VE GOT YOU! (VOL 12)

LETS GO BUYERS!

Why You Should Get Pre-Approved Now, Even If You’re Not Ready to Buy Yet

Thinking about buying a home, this year, next year, or even further down the road? Here’s your gentle nudge: it’s never too early to talk to a mortgage broker and get pre-approved. Pre-approval means knowing how much you can borrow and having documentation ready that shows sellers you’re serious. It’s not just a formality, it’s a key step toward success. We work closely with top-tier mortgage pros (like Aaron Nawrocki at Capital M Lending, who supplies the weekly rate info you see here), who are excellent at walking buyers through the process.

Even if you’re months or years away from making a move, the truth is that if your dream home hits the market tomorrow, you won’t be able to act without a pre-approval letter in hand. More than that, pre-approval paints a realistic picture of your purchasing power. You might qualify for more, or less, than you expected, and that knowledge will help shape your timeline, budget, and expectations. You’ll also get details on what you’ll need in addition to your loan: down payment, closing costs, and moving expenses.

Best of all? It gives you time. Time to improve your credit, adjust your budget, or plan ahead strategically and with intention.

Don’t wait for the “perfect home” to start getting ready.

Want help getting started? We’ve got you.

HEY BUYERS - Why This Might Just Be Your Moment to Buy a Home

Right Now, the market is holding steady, which means opportunity for buyers like you.

Sale prices have leveled out, inventory is up, and many sellers are finally listing because they need to move. Translation? More homes to tour, more room to negotiate, and less of that frenzied bidding war energy we saw over the past few years. Sure, some listings still attract multiple offers, but many others are waiting patiently for the right buyer to walk through the door. That buyer could be you!

In fact, you’ve got more choices now than at any point in the last five years. Guess what, if you buy before rates drop, you’ll be in a position to snag a great home now and refinance into a better rate later. That’s a strategic win.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to look at listings with a sharp eye for value, livability, and long-term potential. Our mission? To help you do exactly that. At the Dream Digs Team, we’re more than agents, we’re your real estate strategy gurus, expert negotiators, and relentless home-finding bird dogs.

Let’s take advantage of this moment and go find the one that fits your life and your future.

Your Dreamy Next Chapter Here’s How to Sell One Home and Buy the Next

 
Ready to downsize into your dream retirement pad, but not sure how to juggle two transactions at once?
If you need to sell your current home in order to finance your next one, it can feel overwhelming. But don’t worry, the Dream Digs Team has you covered.

We’ll start by helping you understand what your current home is worth and what your purchasing power looks like. If you’ve built equity (and chances are, you have!), that equity can help you make a strong, competitive offer on your next home, without stretching your finances.

Then it’s time to dream big:

A chic condo in the Pearl?
A sweet Mt. Tabor bungalow with city views?
A garden retreat surrounded by trees?
Or maybe a sleek townhouse just off NW 23rd?

While you explore what’s next, we’ll guide you through prepping your current home for sale, and make sure the timing works in your favor. With our experienced team, proven systems, and seamless communication, we’ll handle the logistics so you can stay focused on the future.

Let’s make this next chapter your best one yet.

REAL ESTATE NEWS: BUYERS - WE'VE GOT YOU! (VOL 8)

 We get it—rates are up, the headlines are dramatic, and summer’s here…and you’d rather be out playing. 

 
But here’s what we’re seeing on the ground: inventory is up. While some listings still spark bidding wars, plenty of others don’t. That means serious buyers can land great homes with less competition—and with more negotiating power.

Sellers are more open to making deals after inspections, whether that’s closing cost credits, repairs, or even price reductions. We’re seeing buyer wins that just weren’t on the table a couple of years ago.

And here’s the other BIG thing: home values usually go up over time. The house you’re eyeing today? It’s probably going to cost more in a few years—and that’s time you could’ve spent building equity, customizing your space, and settling into your next chapter.

Buying now isn’t about timing things perfectly (no one can). It’s about getting in, starting your investment, and letting time work in your favor.

The market won’t wait, but we will. When you’re ready to get clear, get smart, and get moving, the Dream Digs Team is here—no pressure, just real support.

Expert Negotiators: Your Secret Weapon for Saving Thousands

Finding the right home is just the beginning; saving you serious money is where we really shine.

As your buyer’s agents, one of the first moves we make is asking the seller to cover our fee. That one step alone can save you $10,000 to $30,000, that's money you can keep for moving costs, upgrades, or that first big Home Depot run. 

We don’t stop there, though. Once you’re under contract, we go into full-on negotiation mode. During inspections, we’ll advocate for closing cost credits, necessary repairs, or even a price reduction, whatever helps you reach your financial goals and feel great about your purchase.

At the Dream Digs Team, we believe you should feel smart, supported, and empowered every step of the way. We’ve got your back, from first showing to final signature.

We're ready to help make your next move a powerful one.

 Top 3 Questions Buyers Are Afraid to Ask (But Totally Should)

Buying a home is a big deal, and no one expects you to know everything out of the gate. If you’re a first-time buyer (or it’s been a while), you might be wondering what you should know… and feeling a little awkward about asking.

Let’s take the pressure off. Here are three questions buyers ask us all the time (and yes, you should ask too):

1. What is an offer, exactly?
An offer is your official proposal to buy a home. It includes more than just the price - things like your closing date, financing, earnest money, and contingencies all get spelled out in a multi-page contract.

We’ll send you a blank version to review before you even start house-hunting, so nothing catches you off guard. When it’s time to write, we’ll walk you through every step so you know exactly what you’re signing.

2. What happens during a home inspection?

Think of this as your house health check. A licensed inspector looks at the major systems - roof, plumbing, electrical, foundation, and more. We also recommend a few key environmental inspections (we’ll cover those at your first tour).

Afterward, we’ll help you decide if it makes sense to ask for repairs, credits, or a price adjustment.

3. What’s an appraisal?

If you’re using a loan, the lender needs to confirm the home is worth what you’re offering. A neutral third-party appraiser visits the property, crunches the numbers, and sends a report. Once the home appraises, you’re one big step closer to the finish line.

At the Dream Digs Team, no question is too small or too obvious. We’ll keep you informed, prepared, and totally supported – from your first showing to the closing table.

Let’s find your next home - together.

REAL ESTATE NEWS: BUYERS - WE'VE GOT YOU! (VOL 5)

BUYERS -  Four walls and a fair price?

That’s the bare minimum.
Whether you’re buying your very first home or searching for your version of the Barbie Dreamhouse, figuring out your real priorities can be harder than it sounds. The truth is, having a clear sense of what matters most will save you from getting side-tracked by shiny listings that, while exciting, don’t actually fit your life. That old real estate adage? Location, location, location. It still holds up. You can change a home’s finishes or condition, but you can’t change where it is. So if walkability, neighborhood vibes, or school zones top your list, it pays to stay laser-focused on location. 

On the flip side, if space, layout, or a certain number of bathrooms is non-negotiable, you may need to explore new areas to get what you want. Sometimes, it’s the little things that make a house feel like home to you: a fireplace, a wraparound porch, or that perfect view of the river. Without a clear sense of priorities, it’s tough to decide what to see, and even tougher to know when it’s time to make an offer.

That’s where the Dream Digs Team comes in.
At our very first buyer consult, we’ll help you sort through it all: your must-haves, your nice-to-haves, your cherries on top, and your absolute dealbreakers. Then we’ll send you a personalized spreadsheet with everything laid out in the order of priority we heard from you. You’ll get a chance to review and revise, so before you even step inside a house, you’ll know precisely what you’re looking for, and exactly what you’re not.

Whatever your priorities, the Dream Digs Team is here to help you find a home that fits just right.

BUYERS - IS THIS GOOD NEWS?

What’s Happening in Portland Real Estate (and Why It’s Good News for Buyers)

Spring is in full swing, and the Portland market is starting to show signs of change - in a good way! Aryne just put together a quick video with all the details but here’s the high-level scoop:

Active listings are up nearly 28% from this time last year
New listings have increased by 8%
Pending sales are down just slightly, about 2.5% year over year
  Homes are spending an average of 85 days on market (but the median is just 35, so the good ones are still going fast)
  Average sale price is down 4.5% from last year, but up 3.6% from last month

Thinking about making a move?
At the Dream Digs Team, we’ve got you. We’ll set you up with a smart search strategy, connect you with a great lender, help you tour homes with a sharp eye, and guide you through offer writing, inspection, and closing with zero pressure. This could be your season. Let’s talk.

Open Houses vs. Private Tours:
What’s the Move?

Even if you’ve got an agent, open houses are still worth your time. They’re a no-pressure way to explore different styles, layouts, neighborhoods, and finishes, and sometimes help you figure out what you definitely don’t want. You might even stumble on something wonderfully unexpected. Plus, open houses can spark new questions or ideas to bring back to us. With more listings on the market this spring, open houses are a great way to peek around.
Once you are really clear on what you want, though, private tours are where the magic happens. No crowds, no rush - just time to really feel out the space, ask the smart questions, and get insight from us. These one-on-one tours help you cut through the noise and focus on the homes that truly fit.

You’ve got this - and we’ve got you!

BUYERS - WE'VE GOT YOU!

Hey Buyers! 
Yep, there’s competition. But you’re ready!

Let’s be real: the market can be competitive. Some homes, especially the ones you love the most, are moving fast. In these cases, multiple offers are common, and it can feel a little intense. But don’t let that scare you off. Competition doesn’t mean something shady is going on - it just means a lot of people are out there looking for the same great things you are.
Here’s a little insider secret: it’s not always the highest price that wins. Sellers care about more than just dollars - timing, clean terms, and confidence in the buyer can go a long way. That’s where strategy (and a little guidance) makes all the difference.
So take a deep breath. With the right plan and someone in your corner, you can show up strong, make smart moves, and get the home that’s right for you.

You’ve got this - and we’ve got you.

A Tale of Two Markets... and why it matters to buyers

We’re in a market that's telling two very different stories at the same time.
Story #1: You see a house, it’s gorgeous, and you love it. Guess what? So does everyone else. In these cases, the list price is basically a suggestion - your job as a buyer is to rise to the occasion. That means coming in strong, clean, and fast if you want to win.
Story #2: You see a house that’s been sitting for weeks. That doesn’t always mean something’s wrong with it. Often, it just means it was priced too high out of the gate, and now it’s overlooked. These homes can offer amazing opportunities if you know how to spot them and negotiate well.
Same market. Two totally different strategies.
Knowing which one you’re in is where we come in - we help buyers read the room, make the right moves, and come out with the win.

PORTLAND LIFE: GLOBAL DAY OF UNPLUGGING

GLOBAL DAY OF UNPLUGGING

It is so easy to be on a screen, on a device, using electronics that we forget that we do it all the time. We invite you to unplug and have some fun on Saturday, March 8 from 12:00PM-2:30.

Or if being inside isn't your thang, get out into nature, go for a hike or bike ride, hang out at the park with friends, browse a bookstore, or get your sporty self to a court, pitch or field! Enjoy the unplugging!
