A decade ago when Realty Trust Group was formed, sustainability wasn't a marketing buzzword — it was how we did business. Considering the long-term effects of our daily actions simply made sense to the five Oregonians who joined together to break the real estate mold of huge out-of-state conglomerates focused solely on transaction volume.
We believe relationships are more valuable than transactions.
We believe in the power of working together to achieve our goals.
We believe in supporting our communities and local businesses whenever possible.
We believe it's important to leave things better than you found them.
We believe in leading by example.
For more than a decade, our agents have embodied these values. They've made Realty Trust Group's Pearl District headquarters the top-producing office in Portland for 2007, 2008 and 2009. We have more certified Earth Advantage® Brokers than any other real estate company, providing expertise in sustainable building practices. Whether you're looking to buy a LEED Platinum condominium in the Pearl or to sell your eco-friendly home in any of the neighborhoods we serve, our certified Earth Advantage® Brokers can help make a difference.
