A decade ago when Realty Trust Group was formed, sustainability wasn't a marketing buzzword — it was how we did business. Considering the long-term effects of our daily actions simply made sense to the five Oregonians who joined together to break the real estate mold of huge out-of-state conglomerates focused solely on transaction volume.

We believe relationships are more valuable than transactions.

We believe in the power of working together to achieve our goals.

We believe in supporting our communities and local businesses whenever possible.

We believe it's important to leave things better than you found them.

We believe in leading by example.

For 10 years, our agents have embodied these values to make Realty Trust Group's Pearl District headquarters the top producing office in the state for 2007. Continuing their commitment this year, 150 of our agents and staff — more than any other brokerage — are now certified by Earth Advantage to provide expertise in sustainable building practices. Whether you're looking to buy a LEED Platinum condominium in the Pearl or to sell your eco-friendly home in any of the neighborhoods we serve, our EA S.T.A.R. Certified Agents can help make a difference.
