Your Guide to Selling a Home in Portland
Real support. Real strategy. A selling experience that feels personal — because it is.
Buying a home is a big deal—and we don’t take that lightly.
At Campbell Salgado Real Estate Group, we’re all about crafting a personalized, full-service experience that feels less like a transaction and more like a partnership. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned homeowner making your next move, we’re here to help you find the right place—and feel good doing it.
With over a decade of combined experience in the Portland metro and Vancouver, WA areas, we bring our unique blend of real estate savvy, creative thinking, and calm-in-the-storm energy to every step of the process. From the first search to the final signature, we’ll build a custom plan based on your needs—not some one-size-fits-all checklist. Think of us as your guides, advocates, and occasional comic relief along the way.
When it comes to how we get paid: we work as a team, and our commission covers both of us working collaboratively on your behalf. In some cases, a seller may not offer a buyer’s agent commission. If that happens, we’ll roll up our sleeves and work with you to find a solution—whether that’s negotiating it into the deal or exploring other options that ensure you’re still getting the full benefit of our support and guidance.
And yes, we’ll walk with you through everything: tours, inspections, paperwork, lender coordination, you name it. Our goal is to keep things clear, calm, and moving forward—so you always know what’s happening and what’s next.
We love what we do, and it shows. Helping you land the right home isn’t just our job—it’s our joy. Let’s make this a smooth, rewarding adventure you’ll look back on fondly (ideally while sipping coffee in your new kitchen).

Our Full-Service Seller Representation
Selling your home is a major decision, and you shouldn’t have to figure it out on your own. With our full-service approach, you’ll have two dedicated agents guiding you through every step — from prep and pricing to offers and closing. Our fee is 3% for the complete package, and we’re with you from day one until well after the keys change hands.
-
We’ll start with a walkthrough to assess your home’s strengths, opportunities, and what buyers will notice first. From there, we’ll give you clear, actionable prep advice — no guesswork. You’ll know exactly what’s worth doing and what isn’t.
-
When you list with us, you get both of us working together from start to finish. Our 3% commission covers our full service — from prep and pricing to negotiations and closing. You’ll benefit from two experienced agents aligned on strategy, communication, and your goals.
-
Absolutely. Whether it’s light touch-ups using your own pieces or full professional staging, we’ll guide you on how to make your home feel fresh, spacious, and inviting. Staged homes often sell faster and for more — and we’ve seen it firsthand.
-
From price to repairs to closing timelines, we advocate for your best outcome every step of the way. We balance assertiveness with collaboration so you feel confident and respected throughout the process. The goal is for you to walk away with terms you feel good about.
-
No black holes here. We keep you informed every step of the way—with updates, answers, and a steady voice through what can feel like a whirlwind process
-
We’ll walk you through recent sales, buyer demand, and inventory trends in plain language. You’ll understand what’s happening in the market right now and how it affects your sale. No guesswork, no jargon — just honest insight you can use.
-
We look at recent sales, local trends, buyer behavior, and your home’s unique qualities to land on a price that attracts interest without leaving money on the table. Pricing is both an art and a strategy — and we’ll walk you through both sides.
-
We’ll connect you with reliable painters, handypeople, cleaners, stagers, and other trusted pros who can help get your home market-ready. These are people we’ve worked with personally and know will show up, do great work, and treat your home with care.
-
From paperwork and deadlines to behind-the-scenes coordination, we keep everything moving smoothly and make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
-
Need a contractor, moving help, or someone to pop champagne with? We’re still in your corner after the paperwork is done. Whether it’s your next chapter or your next project, we’re here when you need us.
-
Our full-service listing commission is 3%, which includes both of us working as your team from start to finish. That covers everything from pricing strategy and prep guidance to marketing, negotiation, and closing support. There are no extra fees or surprise charges — just solid, hands-on representation every step of the way.
