REAL ESTATE NEWS: ADU ADVENTURES

When you have an entrance that allows folks to get into your basement and they do not need to pass through your home, it allows for the possibility of a separate/habitable living space in your basement. This does not need to be an ADU, but with the right basement, it can be. Want to know more?

PORTLAND LIFE: CLIENT SPOTLIGHT!

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT! 

17 YEARS OF FRENCH DINNERS

Our amazing client, Amy, makes life for herself and others pretty magical daily! When she is not creating, she is creating! She is an artist, seamstress, playwright, florist, actress, dancer, gardener, award-winning baker and crafter, and so much more!

When Amy went on a trip to France 18 years ago, she probably never imagined what an impact that trip would make on her life. After she and three friends returned from a road trip through France, they decided to have a dinner party to celebrate the food and memories from their adventures and, voila! French Dinner was born. 17 years later the same group of friends, plus a few regulars, keep the tradition going. The evening always starts with an aperitif and ends several courses later with dessert, after-dinner drinks, and sparklers to celebrate Bastille Day.

Not rain, nor heatwave, nor global pandemic (where guests had individual bubbles) has interrupted the annual garden party dinner - where there is a will, there is a way! The menu is always traditional French dishes and the company is always delightful. 

Last Friday Amy hosted her 17th Annual French dinner. Bon Appetit!

Portland teems with farmer's markets! Surrounded by amazing farm country, the Willamette Valley and beyond grows beautiful food, and just as great as beautiful food is supporting the dedicated folks who tend and grow food. Shopping at farmer's markets, signing up for CSAs, and supporting local coops are great ways to support local farmers. And summertime is the best time to start shopping!

Here are a few of our favorite farmer's markets:

REAL ESTATE NEWS: WHAT ABOUT ADU'S IN RURAL AREAS?

ADU ADVENTURES

This is your weekly ADU info guide.

What about ADUs in RURAL AREAS?

The Oregon Legislature adopted SB 391 into law on June 23, 2021. It authorizes a county to allow an owner of a lot or parcel within a rural residential zone to construct one ADU subject to certain restrictions and limitations. SB 391 does not obligate a county to allow ADUs.
