Bela Barany, Realtor, Broker - Portland-Vancouver Metro Area There are many factors that may affect home values in an area. Furthermore, some people may attribute special value to certain neighborhood characteristics that meet their specific needs. Area parks, community programs, the effectiveness of local home owners' associations, access to recreational facilities, the quality of local infrastructure, mass transportation, and the quality of a local school or school district are just a few examples of issues influencing people's home buying decisions. Living, studying and working in the Portland-Vancouver Metro Area since 1988 and being actively involved in the work of my local neighborhood association, I am familiar with many of these issues and I can connect you with a variety of resources that will help you to make an informed real estate decision and, ultimately, maximize the value of your contemplated real estate transaction.
