She is an active listener, always anticipating the needs of her clients. She does her homework and stays up-to-date on the latest housing updates. When it comes to a transaction she attends to every detail from start to finish.
Moving and purchasing a home is a big transaction. Tessa works with everyone from relocating clients to locals and understands that moving into a new home or community, or even a new state, is a big transition. She currently specializes in the Lake Oswego, West Linn, Dunthorpe, southwest Portland, Wilsonville, Tigard and Tualatin areas.

In her free time she loves to be with her family and friends most of all; she loves being social. She loves watching and attending sporting events, Broadway shows and concerts. She is an avid golfer and enjoys tennis and skiing. Tessa is a foodie who is easily excitable about the incredible food and wine scene that Oregon has to offer and she has a passion for traveling and exploring the great Pacific Northwest.
Portland
It’s true that Portland has a lot of nicknames: The Rose City. Stumptown. Beervana. River City. Bridgetown. PDX. I think it shows the affection Portlanders have for our city. Portland is in one of the most beautiful spots in the country. We enjoy tons of your round outdoor activities. The Cascade Mountains with their year-round skiing and snowboarding are an hour to the east and the Pacific Ocean is an hour to the west. Willamette Valley Wine Country, which is known for its world class pinot noirs, is a short drive away. But there are plenty of reasons to stay in the city too. Powell's City of Books is an entire city block of literary fare. Forest Park and Mount Tabor are both perfect for a hike or a picnic and you can’t beat the shopping and dining in the Pearl District or the art scene on Alberta and Mississippi Avenues. Our mild climate--with warm dry summers and cool wet winter--has given rise to the farm to table movement in local restaurants. Salmon, pork, and beef all come from local purveyors and they pair with locally grown produce and international flavors to make Portland a foodie's dream city. Portland has one of the lowest crime rates of major American cities and the cost of living is low compared to other West Coast cities. Homes range from historic mansions in the West Hills and restored bungalows in inner Southeast to highrise condos in the Pearl and downtown and new construction and other up and coming neighborhoods. If you’d like to learn more about Portland let us know. We’d love to show you around and help you find your perfect home.
Reviews
“Tessa’s extensive skills in negotiation and communication set her apart from every other agent we knew. She worked seamlessly to ensure that our offer was exactly what the sellers were looking for. We were competing against six other offers and somehow Tessa managed to win us the house, even though we weren’t the highest bidder. It was through her diligence, metered research, industry relationships and exceptional communication with all parties that we landed our dream house. We will without a doubt be using Tessa and for all of our real estate needs."

“As a new home buyer in Oregon, Tessa guided us through the process, and also through the various and distinctive communities in the Portland area. She was outstanding at discussing the benefits of each neighborhood and looking out for our financial interests most of all. They miraculously negotiated several benefits for us in a market environment where buyers held little power due to low inventory. Their strategy was extremely successful and for that we are truly grateful."

“We highly recommend Tessa to anyone in the greater Portland metro area. She is amazing and efficient, incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to sell a home quickly. Her marketing was superior to every other agent we interviewed and she was an incredible negotiator. Tessa took all the stress out of the selling of our home and managed the details from start to finish."
