Gerritz Realty Group

Gerritz Realty Group is a Portland-area real estate team that works with home buyers, sellers and investors. Its realtor, Logan, grew up in a family with more than 35 years in luxury home construction and real estate, and he says that background helps clients judge a home's quality and whether a remodel or repair is worth the cost. Gerritz Custom Homes, the group's custom home division, has been building homes in Portland for over 40 years.

Buyers get help defining what they want, touring neighborhoods from the Pearl District to Irvington, and negotiating terms. Sellers get marketing and negotiation support through closing. Clients work directly with their agent rather than being passed between team members. The office is in Hillsboro, and the team is licensed in Oregon.
