Joe  has been a cutting-edge professional and positive presence in the Portland Metro real estate market over 20 years.   Joe  consistently uses the latest technology to effectively market homes with maximum exposure which contributes to his long term success in getting homes sold.   He began his real estate career in 1991 after graduating from both Jesuit High School and then the University of Oregon.  Joe is one of the 'founding'  partners  here at the Lake Oswego 's First Addition office of  Soldera Properties.   He helped create a company that will grow and change with our ever changing real estate market.  He is also known as  a "straight shooter" whose dedication to his clients' best interests is evident in every transaction he makes.  His clients admire how hard he works for them and they appreciate having him as their advocate.  Both buyers and sellers appreciate his renowned virtual tours.

Joe Fustolo is described by his clients, friends, and family as "just a fun, cool guy!"  As a native Oregonian, his extensive knowledge of the Metro real estate market sets him apart from other agents.  He has the ability to read his clients' needs in a manner that is comfortable and efficient.  His strong work ethic is balanced with a cunning sense of humor, making him a pleasure to work with throughout the buying and selling process.   

For his sellers, Joe uses his professionalism, honesty, a sound marketing plan, and logic to maximize selling their property for the highest obtainable price within a reasonable amount of time.  Selling a home is a collective effort with his clients and Joe welcomes the close relationships.  Joe ends up selling approximately 97% of all of his listings.  He prides himself on developing an extensive marketing plan, close correspondence with his clients, and educating them on recent market trends and competition.  From this great service, Joe has an almost unsurpassed track record of success and has developed clients for life....... and all of their friends, co-workers, family, and people in their immediate circle.  It has been easy for past clients to refer Joe to people they know because his high level of professionalism and hard work is consistent every time.

For buyers, contrary to popular beliefs, Joe's objectives fall more on "justifying" if a buyer should buy a house rather than simply selling them a house they would like to buy.  His research extends far beyond analyzing location, market value for the home, neighborhood trends, proposed area development, property condition, structural integrity, and safety hazards.  Joe not only wants to match buyers to the "perfect" house, but also make sure that they are buying a sound investment in a home that matches their "handyman" skills.  He realizes that this investment will be their home for many years to come and eventually Joe will be called on again to sell it for them in the future.  It all starts with buying a great house, in a great area, for a great price.

Joe feels whether you are buying or selling a home, it should be an exciting, fun , and financially rewarding  experience.  Joe's goal is not to find you a house quickly, but to find you your perfect match!
