Clients and Friends, Bella Casa Real Estate Group began in McMinnville in March of 2007, 4 months before the market began to crash.

Clients and Friends, In 2018 we have leveled off to a ‘normal’ real estate marketplace for the Portland Metro markets.

Clients and Friends, The final farewell to 2017 is in (see the Market Action Reports below). Not surprising, the numbers prove what boots-on-the-ground concluded throughout the year.
