Working With Kara in Southwest Hills / West Hills
The Southwest Hills covers a lot of ground price-wise, and Kara helps buyers understand why a home near OHSU and the aerial tram can run very differently than one further up toward Council Crest. View quality drives a lot of the pricing here, so Kara walks buyers through which streets hold Mount Hood or Willamette River views year-round versus only in winter once the leaves drop. Because many homes sit on wooded hillside lots, Kara also flags septic, retaining wall, and access-road questions that don't come up in flatter Portland neighborhoods.
