There were a few requirements for Alison and Hannah’s new home, and a bedroom with enough space for a bunk bed was definitely one of them. Starting a new chapter in life, Alison was on the hunt for a space that felt cozy, familiar, and move-in ready for her and her young daughter, Hannah. With new schools and new beginnings on the horizon, it didn’t take long for Alison to fall for a charming Mid Century Modern home in Southwest Portland, conveniently located just blocks from the South Waterfront and John’s Landing. We loved working hard to find this sweet little family their perfect new home, and we wish them both the best of luck for a wonderful school year ahead!

Tracey Henkels attributes her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic and to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun, on her family’s apple orchard in Iowa.

While Tracey wouldn’t trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was actually Architecture, a craft she studied at Iowa State University during her undergraduate years. After receiving her degree, Tracey worked as an Architect for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path.
