Ashley recently moved to Bend from the Seattle Metro area where she has been a licensed real estate agent for the past 6 years. Ashley has a background in the military and customer service and believes that problem solving is among her best attributes in working with her clients - that and a belief that her clients' needs must always come first.
Born and raised in Bend, Shaun brings a wealth of knowledge of Bend's past and present, knowing the neighborhoods intimately having grown up in the community. He was licensed in Bend for several years before moving to North Carolina where his wife was a licensed agent. Coming home to Bend means Shaun can work again in a town he really knows and enjoys.
Over the weekend, Bend Premier got to be the first volunteer group to be a part of "Keeping Bend Beautiful" following the initial shut down due to COVID-19. This volunteer program allows various clubs, individuals, and associations the opportunity to adopt a stretch of road or plot of land and improve the appearance by picking up litter, weeding and sometimes planting new plants!
Bend Premier worked on picking up trash along 14th street on the Westside of Bend on Saturday and it was a wonderful experience. Not only did the team clean up all the trash found along the side of the road, but they also had a great time doing it. The volunteers agreed that they can't wait for the next opportunity to do their part in Keeping Bend Beautiful!
If you or a group you know wants to get more information on this program and how you can take part, follow this link HERE to direct you to the City of Bend webpage.

They're less comfortable, however, hosting an open house. This is understandable, given the health concerns associated with social contact these days. The question is, if you need to sell your house now, what virtual practices should you use to make sure you, your family, and potential buyers stay safe in the process?

Concerns over the spread of Covid 19 have quickly changed how we conduct real estate sales in Central Oregon over the past few weeks. Shelter in place, social distancing, travel constraints, economic concerns, social changes, and just an overall fear of catching the coronavirus has really impacted human behavior.
