Maureen Swan

It was not her overwhelming love for houses that got Maureen interested in real estate (although that helped), it was her love for people. She realized early on that she is at her best when she gets out from behind her desk and works directly with clients. She has taken this passion and translated it into seventeen years of experience in the Portland market.

Maureen carefully listens to her clients and helps them translate their hopes into finding the home they want. Her work with first-time home buyers has been especially gratifying, as she knows how empowering the purchase of a home can be. Maureen also values helping clients get the most for their house when they are ready to sell it. She religiously tours properties and understands how to price and sell homes both quickly and profitably. Being the youngest of four children helped instill the power of negotiation in Maureen long ago. She will not shy away from helping communicate your needs and wants.

Maureen knows how to navigate the city’s many school districts. Having experience in both the public and private school system she understands how this, and many other factors, can play a large role in the house-hunting process. Maureen is always ready to find creative solutions to every obstacle along the way.

She currently resides in a 1913 Craftsman with her husband, two children and 2 rescue pugs. Although Maureen has a great appreciation of houses of all styles and eras having lived in a mid-century Ranch, a 1800's Colonial and a 1980's mountain home. Charming and whip-smart, she is a wonderful companion and advocate for every adventure in real estate.
