Tatiana has a unique background that brought her to real estate.
Prior to becoming a Realtor, Tatiana was a social worker in Santa Cruz , CA graduating from UCSC in Sociology and also in Boston, where she obtained her MSW and MBA from Boston College while working with the homeless, youth and those seeking to stabilize their lives after addiction .
Her experience in social services and business helps her represent a broad range of clients from Investors, to first-time home Buyers, Buyers moving up and a broad spectrum of Sellers . Her approach with clients is to appreciate where they are starting from, to help them clearly outline their transition whether they are buying or selling, and to help them achieve their goals successfully and with ease.
Being highly involved in her neighborhood coupled with her previous experience with the Housing Authority of Portland and navigating the City of Portland ADU (accessory dwelling unit) permitting process gives her the tools to guide Buyers (and Investors alike) to the homes and neighborhoods that best fit their needs and to share intimate knowledge of growing hot spots.
Tatiana enjoys the process of working with Sellers advising them on projects that will help them achieve highest market price, staging their homes and setting expectations for pricing, market time, negotiating the transaction and taking away some of the common stresses of selling.
Tatiana’s knowledge of the ADU process, energy efficiency techniques for older homes, knowledge of remodeling and connections with contractors helps her advise and guide her clients whether they are buying or selling. She has also been voted a Portland Monthly Five Star Realtor from 2014 – 2018.
When not selling real estate, Tatiana has volunteered with her neighborhood association, been a member of the Mayors Residential Infill Advisory Committee, participated in the Friends of Tree yearly plantings, and other neighborhood events. She has made financial donations for the past 5 years to Proud Ground – the community land trust – and Dress for Success. On weekend evenings you can find her salsa or 80’s dancing or attending a live show at one of Portland’s night clubs
She is a trusted resource providing professional and relevant real estate services to homebuyers and sellers that result in successful sales and experiences that last a lifetime.
