Joan Mezzanatto

How long have you worked in Real Estate?
I have been in Real Estate and with John L Scott for 10 years now.

What is your specialty?
Residential and relocation specialist. I market homes with professional photography and print marketing. When I list a home, I do a huge listing launch which generates excitement and brings offers to the table for my sellers.

What is one tip you have for someone looking to buy or sell a home?
The next home you buy needs to be right for you and your family. It is a seller’s market but interest rates are still low for buyers.

What is the most challenging/gratifying aspect of what you do?
Sharing the excitement with a family getting into their next home, or selling a property to start a new chapter of their life, is gratifying.

What is the most unique property you’ve listed or sold?

---

Paradise on the River

What do you see in the future for real estate sales/prices?
I feel this will be a seller’s market for a year or two more.

What do you enjoy doing when you are not working? Hobbies, volunteering, family, fun?
My hobbies are being with family & friends, snow skiing, hiking, cooking, enjoying the outdoors.

What do you like about living in this area?
I love the easy access to the freeways, shopping and restaurants, and being close to the Oregon state line and the Columbia River. I also love the views of Mt. Hood, the river and the city.

Anything else you would like our readers to know about you and your company?
I love my job and my clients. I do two client appreciation parties each year. One in the summer with a live band and all the food you can eat and great music. Most of the clients that I have worked with come to this party. They bring their families and kids, there are door prizes and everyone has a blast. The second party is just before Christmas.
