Michele BENNETT
REAL ESTATE BROKER - LICENSED IN OREGON
Michele believes that house hunting should be fun. She has an impressive reputation for getting offers accepted, and works tirelessly as an advocate for her clients. Michele loves touring character-filled Portland homes, and is an informed guide and advisor on all things home related. She doesn't hold back her opinions, whether positive or negative: no leaking oil tanks, busted sewers, or boob lights have gotten by her yet.
Her perfect Portland day: First breakfast at P’s & Q’s market, Michele’s favorite place for no line brunch, then exploring the Portland Flea with friends for one-of-a-kind home decor. If it’s summer, a late afternoon urban beach day and Willamette swim at Poet’s Beach and finally late night happy hour pizza and negronis at Nostrana.
Her Superpower: She’s a mermaid… or closest thing to it—an artistic swimmer! Michele has been artistic swimming since she was 11, and is the co-founder of the Rose City Raindrops, Portland’s one and only artistic swimming performance group.
Superpower she wishes she had: Being able to talk to animals. Michele would love to know what her cats Audrey and Frankie are thinking..
Favorite moment in real estate: Getting to call her buyers to celebrate an accepted offer!
Favorite Portland neighborhood and why? Michele lives in the Alberta Arts district and she loves it. She’s close to her favorite shops, restaurants, and parks. Above all, though, it's the community her and her husband Mike have developed that she loves most. She's lived all over NE Portland and this is by far her favorite spot yet.
