News & Notes

*JOBS: Moving to Lake Oswego and looking for a job?

– The City of Lake Oswego has several openings.  Check them out HERE.

– Parks and Recreation job openings can be found HERE.

* BANK-OWNED PROPERTIES: Dianne and I work with a wide array of clients, and each client is different; looking for a solution to their own unique circumstance.  That said, one thing that everyone seems to ask about these days is “bank-owned” or REO properties.  Yes, these are available in Lake Oswego, and the appeal is that they are almost always under market value.  These properties have either gone through the short-sale phase unsuccessfully (they didn’t sell while listed as short-sale), or have just gone straight back to the bank and therefore appear as a new property on the market where the Seller is the Bank.

I usually talk with clients about the fact that they are really looking for a *home* that meets their needs… both monetary and otherwise (location/school/amenities/lot size/number of bedrooms & other criteria), and so I focus on the whole picture as there are so many good “deals” on the market right now whether they are bank-owned or not.  AND, bank-owned properties, if they fit your other needs, are a great resource when you’re looking at the financial side.

Below you’ll find the bank-owned properties on the market in Lake Oswego right now, as well as the ones that have Sold in the last 30 days.  I included some basic directions in case you wanted to drive by and see if any of these interest you. ***Of course, do not drive in the driveways or otherwise disturb the new owners of the ones in the “Sold” category : )

To answer a question that always seems to come up: If a house shows a lower List Price than Sold Price this can have multiple reasons including seller-paid concessions (closing costs etc), multiple offers & therefore “bidding up” on price, etc.

Hopefully this is a good reference-resource for you. Happy August!

Featured Property

12808 Elk Rock Rd

Priced at $924,000, this home has 3980 square feet and was built in 1999.

Today’s featured property is truly unique. The line that divides Clackamas and Multnomah Counties goes right through the house. The house sits primarily in Clackamas County so it has a Lake Oswego address and the lower property taxes associated with Clackamas County. Yet, it also sits in Multnomah County and is associated with the prestigious Dunthorpe neighborhood. Probably best of all, it allows the home owner to choose between two school districts: Riverdale Schools or Lake Oswego Schools.

The home was constructed with quality and features solid-core, 6-panel doors with transom windows, extensive use of hardwood flooring, granite, travertine, and stainless steel. The kitchen has a huge cooking island and enjoys a pantry, an appliance garage, instant hot water, and a convection oven.

The master suite is on the main level and has a two-way fireplace that can be viewed from the bedroom and from the bathroom. There is a door to the side deck that has a built-in hot tub. Also in the master is a convenient second washer and dryer hook up.

There are 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a half bath. Along with the greatroom, there is a family room and a media room. Did I mention the wine cellar? This house has just about every feature you can think of. One of the lower level bedrooms has it’s own sitting room and exterior entrance, so it would be ideal for guests or in-laws.

The house is located on a quiet, dead-end street with very little traffic. The home was custom built for the lot to take advantage of the expansive views of the Willamette River, the mountains, and the lights of the valley at night. You will enjoy watching the sea planes take off and land on the river from nearly every room in the house including the greatroom, the kitchen, the dining room, the master suite, the familyroom, and all of the other bedrooms.

To see more of this house, please click here to enjoy the virtual tour.

I am happy to arrange a viewing of the house if you have interest in seeing the property. Please call me for an appointment at 503-803-6298.
