Welcome
Hello, I'm James Montgomery, and I am proud to be your Managing Principal Broker with HomeSmart Realty Group. With dual licenses in Oregon and Washington, I've been dedicated to serving the real estate needs of clients in the beautiful Willamette Valley for over seventeen years.
A Commitment to Excellence
My journey in real estate began with a strong commitment to excellence and a passion for helping individuals achieve their homeownership dreams. I've been a continuous member of both the Willamette Valley Multiple Listing Service (W.V.M.L.S.) and the Regional Multiple Listing Service (R.M.L.S.), which has enabled me to stay at the forefront of market trends and provide invaluable insights to my clients.
A Realtor with a Difference
My dedication to the real estate profession extends beyond just listings and transactions. As an accredited ABR agent since 2007, I've always prioritized the needs and interests of home buyers and sellers. I've also taken a significant step forward by completing the Earth Advantage Sustainability Training for Accredited Real Estate (S.T.A.R) program, allowing me to better understand the unique aspects of "green built" homes.
Family Values and Community Involvement
My wife and I made the wonderful decision to relocate from Southern California to Salem 18 years ago. We've built our lives here and watched our children, Erin and Maggie, grow up in the Northwest. Erin is pursuing her studies in English at Lewis & Clark in Portland, while Maggie is an eighth-grader eagerly anticipating her transition to high school. Our commitment to family extends to our active involvement in our local church, where we have found a supportive and welcoming community.
Dedication to the Mid Valley Association of Realtors
As an active member of the Mid Valley Association of Realtors (MVAR), I've worked tirelessly to protect the interests of homeownership, skillfully negotiating prices, arranging financing, and managing transactions to ensure successful closings. Collaborating with local real estate professionals has been an enriching experience, providing me with valuable insights into the intricacies of our local housing markets. I'm confident that I can help both home buyers and sellers continue to build wealth in the greater Willamette Valley.
