History
From scaling tall trees to check the quality of a roof, to squeezing into tight crawl spaces, to writing offers with busy clients at midnight, Portland's Alternative Realtors has been known to go to extremes to ensure that our clients get exactly what they need and want. Portland's Alternative Realtors opened its doors in 1995 when its founder, Kundalini Bennett, saw that there was a lack of authenticity in the conventional real estate firm she was working for. She decided to go it alone, and dubbed herself Portland's Alternative Realtor. The phone hasn't stopped ringing since. Our office is located in the heart of Southeast Portland at 3144 SE Belmont, in a classic orange 1920s Bungalow. We'd love to chat with you if you are in the neighborhood, so feel free to drop by and have a cup of tea anytime!
