My name is Corey Eubanks, a managing broker in Washington and principal broker in Oregon, serving the greater Portland-Vancouver metro area…and sometimes beyond. I am focused on professional guidance with jaw-dropping customer service for people making transitions in their lives: moving to the area, buying a first home, selling a home and upsizing, selling a home and downsizing, investing. Life happens, and I'm here to help you on the home front.
Customer service is my mantra and guiding principle. At each step in the process, I always lead with the query “What can I do to make this transaction as smooth and beneficial for my valuable client?” I do this with proactive communication, open dialogue, effective negotiations, simple language for complicated concepts, and outside-the-box thinking for unique situations.
So, check out the blog, look at some listings, let me know what questions you have and let's get started. You can even set up a search profile and save your favorite homes.

Being a gay Realtor, I naturally end up working with many LGBT homebuyers and sellers. I especially like working with people who are new to the Portland / Vancouver area. With this in mind, I would like to share some of my favorite resources for the local LGBT community.
Also, this page is an ever-growing resource, so feel free to send me any organizations that you think should be included. While my lil ol’ page of queer resources can’t be the complete end-all-be-all guide to all the things LGBT in the area, you will be able to find almost anything by following the links below.
Read my "Portland Gayborhoods" blog entries RIGHT HERE.

The Q Center. The Q is such a dynamic space, providing information, services and entertainment for all aspects of the community. This is the most welcoming and enjoyable queer community center I’ve ever spent time at.
In January 2011, The Advocate named Vancouver the 6th most gay-friendly town in the US, ahead of such places as San Francisco, LA, Seattle and even Portland. Read all about it!
