FOSTER DUPLEXES

CLIENT GOAL
The seller, a licensed Oregon real estate agent, was ready to exit ownership of this 14-unit duplex community in Southeast Portland. While fully capable of listing the property himself, he chose to engage The Christensen Group—valuing our local market expertise, negotiation discipline, and national reach to ensure the best possible pricing and terms.

CHALLENGE
In a rapidly shifting interest rate environment, certainty and timing were paramount. The seller needed a buyer who not only understood the asset but could move quickly and meet very specific terms. Because both parties in this deal were licensed agents, expectations were high—and execution had to be precise.

ACTION
Within 30 days of launch, our team secured a full-price offer from a fellow licensed agent who saw the long-term upside in the Foster Duplexes. We acted as a trusted intermediary—balancing the needs of both sides and structuring creative solutions that made the deal work. From negotiations to financing hurdles, our team ensured that issues were resolved quickly and constructively.

RESULT
The sale closed in just 32 days from PSA execution, preserving value and delivering a smooth outcome for both the buyer and the seller. In a market where lender volatility can derail even strong deals, this transaction is a prime example of how experienced brokerage representation accelerates success—even for experienced brokers.
