Hello, my name is Phelan! I grew up here in Portland, and love everything about the PNW. I am originally from the Southwest but fell in love with the trees, rain, and vast amount of outdoor activities in the region at a young age.
I've spent the last two-plus years as a home appraisal assistant, but before that, I spent several years training and leading teams of customer service reps at REI. While I have enjoyed learning the appraisal side of real estate I quickly began to realize that something was missing. I have a passion for customer service, helping people, and offering knowledgeable insights and those things were all missing from what I had been doing. I loved the industry but needed more from a career so I decided to get my real estate license instead of pursuing my appraisal license.
I believe that I will show up different from any other agent that you will meet for several reasons: I grew up in Portland, I have knowledge from a different side of the industry, and I will unequivocally put your needs first. I believe that going out of my way to provide amazing customer service to everyone is the most important thing I can do on a daily basis, and I aim to not only help you achieve your real estate dreams but create life-long relationships with everyone I work with.
I work with the best team of hand-selected industry professionals from mortgage lenders, to appraisers, home inspectors, title reps, escrow officers, and even financial advisors; all with the goal of making your next real estate transaction as smooth and stress-free as possible. I want to create an ecosystem of people around my clients so that they don't have to lift a finger during the buying/selling process.
I can't wait to get to know you! Feel free to reach out to me anytime with any questions you may have.
