REAL ESTATE by REAL PEOPLE
We understand that every home buyer and every home seller have different wants, needs and desires. We take the time to listen and learn about our clients, going beyond the typical client-real estate agent relationship and prove that we are "real" in the eyes of our clients. We operate our business using our motto: Real Estate by Real People. Find out why it is better to have a real advocate, a real adviser and a real friend in your corner.

Joe Edwards & Liz Edwards have been been licensed Realtors for a combined 50 years; with a vast majority of their business originating from past clients and referrals. Our unique philosophy stands above most Realtors; saying "it is far more important to spend time building relationships with clients than spending time to promote one's self." We firmly believe that service is "life-long" not "transaction-long". We want our clients to feel comfortable contacting us anytime for advice, recommendations, opinions or just to chat. The care we show for our clients combined with our professionalism and experience is how we have maintained superior (5 Star) reviews from our clients and colleagues.

Real Estate is not just a career for Joe, it's in his blood. He has personally witnessed Portland transform from a city the average person could not locate on a map to a city with its own identity and culture. In fact, Joe's family was the largest home builder in Portland from the 60's through the mid-80's. The Edwards developed some of the most sought-after and prestigious neighborhoods in Portland Metro area. Examples of neighborhoods bearing the Edwards' name include Rock Creek and Terra Linda in NW Portland, Sorrento Ridge and Hyland Hills in SW Beaverton, The Edwards Meadows in Hillsboro and Hidden Springs Ranch in West Linn - to name a few.

Liz Edwards attributes her success and growth to her tenacious work ethic and the belief that you reap what you sow. She is fortunate and thankful that she reaps the rewards of referrals, endless Thank-You s and continued business. In 1988, she relocated to the beautiful state of Oregon from Northern California. Liz has two grown children, Jessica and John. Outside of real estate Liz enjoys spending time with her two Shitzus , Mr. Miyagi and Mimi, as well as her nine year old Quarter Horse, Will. When it's me-time, you can typically find her riding or grooming Will. To Liz, this is a special time because it was an activity that Liz and her dad used to do when she was young. He is no longer with us and spending time with her horse reminds her that life is short, so she makes sure that she enjoys life to the fullest

Joe is also an Oregonian through and through. He has lived in Oregon his entire life (with the exception of experiencing Japanese culture for a few years after college). Joe graduated from the University of Oregon in 1992 and views himself as a lifelong student with goal of bettering himself as well as those around him.
