Pros:
- Laura is very responsive with her communication and is very prompt to resolve issues that we had with the house.
- The house is in a great location and the neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are great.
Cons:
- There were a number of house projects still in progress when we moved in- broken window screens, attaching a sink in the master suite, fixing broken window panes, caulking and sealing showers, etc. These required multiple trips from the handyman that were inconvenient for us when we tried to work from home.
- The backyard was not landscaped. There was no grass and because of the heavy rain during early summer, the yard was entirely mud and unusable. When the summer came, the backyard became very hard dirt and wasn’t appealing.
- Air conditioning didn’t work and Portland had a historically hot summer, which made the house quite uncomfortable. Laura got us room units which were a big help but the living room was often too hot to congregate in.
- The bed in the upstairs room with the bathroom was a full size bed but we were under the impression that it would be a queen.
Overall, I’d still recommend this house if you need a place in a great location to explore the city.
