A-1 Realty Northwest was established in 1998. I have been a licensed realtor for 19 years and am the principal broker and owner. I believe that the customer should always come first, in any transaction. Buying a home is a very large investment and requires knowledge and care in the process. Selling a home requires the same due diligence and care. As a real estate professional, I provide these essentials, for a smooth, clean process. At A-1 Realty you are A-1! I will always come to you for signatures, information, and other requirements, no need to come to my office. I will work with your schedule, whether it's 10:00 o'clock at night or 6:00 in the morning. Service from A-1 is Number One!~

' IElselgNI ~ONC rHK IIIIH'r THNCIllgp9g. Les Schwab isn't your regular tire store and that's a fact we take pride in. From literally running out to meet you to giving away free beef with every tire purchase in February, we do things a little differently. We've set a standard in the tire industry that sets us apart from every other dealer through our desire to be more than a faceless corporation. We'd rather be that neighbor down the street you know and trust. We started as a small shop in Prineville, Oregon, back in 1952 and eventhough we have expanded to more than 400 stores,we've kept our small-town values. No matter how much we've grown,our customers' happiness and satisfaction has always been our top priority. So if you want to do business with people who take pride in their performance and honesty, why not drop by? Wepromise you'll be glad you dld.

I was born and raised in Baker Gity. I am a 1993 graduate of Baker High School. I later attended Eastern Oregon University where I graduated in 2000 with a Bachelor's of Science in Art. I spent my winters during college working at Anthony Lakes Mtn. Resort where I met my husband, Adam. After graduation we had a hard time finding jobs in La Grande, so we followed work to Portland.
