We sell Portland New Construction, Townhouses, and Single-Family Homes

Portland New Construction is extremely desirable right now and newer homes in close in neighborhoods are becoming more prevalent. You get all the benefits of living in a close-in NE or SE Portland neighborhood coupled with having the convenience of a new home. Close in neighborhoods provide excellent schools, shopping, dining and entertainment nearby while being minutes from Downtown by car or public transportation. Portland is also an extremely walk-able city with great public transportation and lots of public art.

We work with builders in Portland that are constructing single family homes, townhouses and condos that really fit the neighborhoods. There are several projects in the works that will be coming on the market soon and others that we have currently listed. Please call or email us today for more details, we are excited to share this with you!

As the owner of PortlandDuplex.com, I have been watching, studying and selling duplexes in Portland for the past 10 years. Multifamily property is a stable investment that offers reasonable returns and potential for appreciation.
