My approach is to listen, really listen. I am good at comprehending the preferences, needs and wants of my clients and I do my best to deliver what they are looking for. I have over 30 years experience selling residential real estate in Portland. I understand good markets, challenging markets and everything in between, and I am dedicated to obtaining the best possible results no matter what the circumstance may be. I love my work and am passionate about my clients. Their success is my greatest reward. I love Portland because it is always getting better and evolving into an exceptional city that is full of optimism.

I am committed to my community and have served on several boards. Locally I have served on the board of the Portland Gay Men’s Chorus and the Portland Area Business Association. On an occasional Saturday morning I can be found at the stove in Our House of Portland cooking short order breakfast for the residents and staff.

As a Realtor it is important to me that my clients always feel they are in control of the process and know that my job is to facilitate the process based upon their decisions. The highest compliment I have been given from a client is “You take the drama out of buying and selling a home.” I enjoy the process and work to ensure that my clients feel positive about the experience. I think of it as the beginning of a long relationship.

I've been selling real estate for over twelve years in all parts of Portland. After a few months in the business I met Kathy MacNaughton, as we ended up having some real estate transactions together. I really admired her work ethic, extensive knowledge and general ease in dealing with clients and people. She started as a mentor for me and became a friend and confidant. In 2005, I went to work with her for one of Portland's largest and most successful condo developers, Onder Development Co. & Williams and Dame in selling the Strand Condos, a $150 million development. We were able to sell out this project during one of the largest market downturns in history.

The Strand experience inspired my interest in development. In late 2005, I helped established a development company of our own - Beck Davison Homes. We specialize in building energy efficient and sustainable homes in close-in NE, SE, and NW Portland neighborhoods. My wife, Teal Davison, is the interior designer for each of these homes. She places a strong emphasis on contemporary clean lines and features. Ethan Beck, our partner, is the general contractor and is focused on high quality, efficiency, conservation and sustainability. Between the three of us, we have the necessary skills to find, design and build your next new home!

Growing up in a home remodeling oriented family, I experienced first hand the critical importance of attention to detail. My main emphasis is building strong client relationships that continue to grow, by guiding our clients to a decision that is right for them through tireless and diligent work. I have almost a decade of experience in the Portland real estate market and have dealt with every type of contingency—small and large—imaginable. I joined The MacNaughton Group because I trust and respect the people in the group and the way they do business.

As someone who recently purchased a home, my approach is to put myself in the shoes of the buyer or seller. Fostering exceptional service, a commitment to follow through and a desire to always be helpful are what I bring to the team and to our clients. I believe that every client is unique, and that their interests definitely come first. Having been involved in hundreds of transactions, I take pride in constantly learning as our business constantly changes. I have always said if I don’t know the answer to a question I will do everything I can to find the answer.
